LADERA RESORT & SPA - ST LUCIA

Ladera Resort is located on the southern end of St. Lucia, just outside the town of Soufriere, approximately 40 minutes from the Hewanorra Airport. Nestled on a hillside 1,000 feet above sea level, Ladera overlooks the spectacular Piton Mountains and the Caribbean Sea.

Ladera takes full advantage of its natural surroundings, offering a unique design in guest accommodations. Each of our 6 villas and 19 suites has an "open wall"—the west side of each unit has been left open, inviting one of the world’s most breathtaking views into your suite. Nonetheless, each suite at Ladera offers complete privacy. Every accommodation features its own plunge pool or villa swimming pool, for a private, refreshing dip just outside your room.  (Ladera’s electricity is 220 volts, 50 cycles (square, three-prong plug). Ladera will be more than happy to provide adaptors and transformers for guests who require them.)

Renowned Chef Orlando Satchell (visiting from London for the season) has created a world-class menu along with St. Lucian Head Chef Nigel Mitchel, who oversees Dasheene throughout the year.
