Dream Vacation at Ladera Resort

Liked mostMy husband and I love Soufriere, St Lucia! We started going there in 2004 and this was our 7th trip to St Lucia. We splurged this year and finally got to stay up in the mountain top at Ladera Resort! It was even more magical than we ever dreamed it would be to stay at Ladera! From the moment you arrive, the staff treated us so special….always going above & beyond making sure we were happy with everything! We were booked into a Rainbow Suite and we were so excited to get upgraded into a Hilltop Suite! We never got tired of the views between the two Pitons while looking down at boats along Sugar Beach! This was our first time staying in an open-air suite with only 3 walls. I was worried about the Heat in August with only ceiling fans and standing fans by our bedside, but the cool mountain breezes made it very comfortable. If we got hot, we just went for a swim in our plunge pool or jump in main pool which was kept at an even cooler temperature and was very refreshing swim! We Loved to listen to the waterfall water running into our pool, such a calming white noise. We enjoyed all the free amenities that Ladera had to offer - Garden Tour, Discovery Tour, Nature Hike & the Manager’s Happy Hour! We also went to the new spa at Ladera Resort- Leve Spa (only opened last year) . We had an amazing St Lucian Spice massage, which was followed by a special lunch at Dasheene, which was the most delicious lunch we had in the 10 days we were in St Lucia! Loved that they also provided free transportation down to Malgretoute Beach and Sugar Beach. They both have chairs & umbrellas you can rent as well as beachside restaurants for drinks & lunch. We love the snorkeling at Malgretoute Beach. We saw so many different fish - barracudas, needle nose, scuttle fish, Sargent Majors, parrot fish and even a yellow fin tuna! On our last day we even saw a really cool spotted water snake swimming around the rocks along the beach, which I was told was not poisonous. Breakfast was included and it had such a nice variety of choices - fresh fruit plate, coffees, smoothies, fresh baked warm pastries, egg dishes, pancakes, waffles, crepes and so much more….pretty much anything you’d ever want! We ate lunches and dinners at Ladera most days….food was always so delicious and the staff were all so sweet…they made our stay so memorable! Thank you to all Ladera staff for taking such good care of us - reception, the spa, restaurant, housekeeping and Butlers… YOU ALL ROCK!

Amazing Resort

Liked mostAbsolutely amazing views and service! My husband and I stayed at Ladera for 3 nights at the start of our St. Lucian vacation and we both fell in love with this beautiful resort! Everyone that works there is so kind and helpful. They all seem to know your names after the first day! The views from the room is almost unbelievable and something I will cherish forever! Waking up to the sunrise and the birds chirping was amazing. I was worried about being hot with no A/C, but we both slept like babies and had to use the covers. The only time I was warm was while getting ready in the bathroom. I think it might help if they put a fan in the bathroom. The only other issue we had we made the mistake of leaving bathroom light on the first night and the bugs were crazy outside of our bed netting, but once the light was off there was no issues! The food at Dasheene was incredible. The breakfast was included and you had so many choices. We chose to eat our lunches around the pool and the service was top notch. The evening meals at Dasheene had the most amazing views but the only downside was shortly after sunset the bugs were crazy. I actually had to cover my shoulders with a napkin because they were so bothersome. I’m not sure why they were so bad here because we ate dinner at Hotel Chocolat across the street one night and had zero bug issues! We booked the volcano and mud bath experience with the resort and had the best time! Benton was our private driver for the day and I highly recommend! We also went to the spa while we were there and had a couples massage. It was a wonderful experience and I would definitely recommend. We hiked 2 of the trails there and although they are a bit challenging the views at the top are worth it! We felt very safe the entire time we were there and the security seems very attentive. If you are on the fence about booking Ladera… don’t!! It’s an amazing place that I will never forget and we would love to return one day to experience it again!!

Such a luxurious and private spot!

Liked mostWe didn’t feel bad relaxing in our room because we could swim privately and had the most incredible view! We used the tree house, indoor and outdoor gym, hot tubs, pool table, ping pong, and community pool and were all alone!! (There were other guests but it was the less busy time of the year). Local excursions were done privately instead of a big group. Took advantage of the shuttle to sugar beach and Malgretoute beach which were BEAUTIFUL with good snorkeling, and there were maybe 6 other people on Malgretoute with us. The food was incredible. I was really worried about not having AC but slept very good with the ocean breeze coming in. Such a luxurious and private spot!

Honeymooners in paradise

Liked mostI arrived at Ladera Resort for our Honeymoon on July 20- July 26. The way the room was decorated and the personalized note made me cry happy tears. When you first arrive to Ladera you are greeted with the phrase 'Welcome to Paradise". This resort does not lie, its an ecofriendly paradise everything is hand crafted from the furniture(chairs, tables, soap dishes, etc). The food and plants are grown and cared for on the property. The staff is very accommodating, I am sensitive to heights and shared this with my facialist at the spa. She held my hand and walked me up and down to the spa room. She checked on me after the facial and offered my husband and I time in the sauna. I saw her the next day and she stopped and checked on me again. The there is Isha one of the servers and hostess at the Dasheene restaurant. She fixed me the best to go smoothies. She realized my favorite smoothie is the Dasheene Pick Me Up and notated it for others. From the entire restaurant staff who realized my phobia and sat me on the third row not on the front or side. They constantly checked on me and ensured that I was ok. The boutique staff was patient and caring when I was cramping and ran and located the needed medicine and sent over ginger tea assist me. Everyone was friendly and greeted us or waved from the cleaning crew, garden staff, artist in the Immersion studio,consierge, front desk, check out, spa, gym etc.. We meet the chef who curated the meals and who was in travel magazines. The artist who carved the picture frame I bought. Or the artist who made the bracelets and necklaces I bought. Or the The tour guide who took us to the Mudbath, Volcano, Garden and waterfall tour. This place is genuine and makes you feel like family. The Felix's will definitely return.

Extremely Relaxed

Liked mostThis was a very unique experience for us, the resort in a boutique style eco friendly design. We love how the buildings are built to flow with the land and surrounding forest. We stayed in Hilltop 7 and had fantastic views of the Pitons as well as the Caribbean Sea below. The open air living was great even if it took a minute to adjust to no A/C and the nature that visited frequently. It is a must try at least once in life. The staff is amazing, we did not meet a single unkind or rude staff member. So many names to mention but a special shout out to Janelle at Dasheen who made our dinners very special, the breakfast staff is like a well oiled machine, Isha (I hope I spelled It right) runs a tight ship but keeps it so friendly with her beautiful smile. “V” kept us well stocked with our minibar and room service which we definitely appreciate. We spent two days at Sugar Beach (as guests), the beach is nice and about a 15 minute shuttle ride each way. The only real drawback is Sugar Beach charges $100/chair for the day which is outrageous it does come with good service but wow. The beach does offer free chairs but each day we were there they were all being used as they are on the public side of the beach. This was our second visit to St. Lucia and it was even better than I remembered such wonderful people living on a beautiful island!

A most unique experience

Liked mostLadera is a truly unique property. The setting is stunning- set between the pitons 1000 feet above sea level. You cannot beat the views. Food at Dashnee was excellent, the farm to table was apparent in every dish. There was a daily fish special and so many seafood options along with beef, chicken, pasta, risotto etc. Chicken dishes and goat dish was excellent. The chocolate mousse was the best dessert I have ever had. Wine choices were excellent and cocktails, for the most part, were great. Service was wonderful- every staff member knew our names and did whatever possible to make our stay lovely. Servers, managers, reception, drivers, cleaning staff, butlers, were all incredible. We stayed in 2 rooms- a Hilltop suite (X3) and a Heritage Suite (G). Both rooms were amazing however the Heritage Suite was STUNNING. Ladera is an open concept resort so you have to be prepared for the sound of nature, bugs in your room, particularly moths- moths bigger than you can imagine. Don't worry, the birds come in and eat them in the morning! The rooms have many fans and we found the only time it was warm was when we were getting ready for dinner. Nighttime was lovely. We did excursions, went to both beaches, to the spa, rum hideaway, hiked the trails. All were excellent. I recommend anyone looking for a unique experience to try Ladera.
