The unique Ladera Resort is set on a tropical crest, soaring 1,000 feet above the Caribbean Sea below. This eco lodge, designed and built using local and sustainable materials, offers scenic views of the sparkling waters and the Pitons, and was designed with the environment and conservation in mind.
Ladera was made for romance and honeymoons, with each luxury suite offering a private plunge pool and sophisticated, Caribbean inspired design, complete with open air sitting rooms. Dine at the award winning restaurant, take part in wine tastings, or opt to eat privately in the Wine Cellar. This adults-only property is designed with luxury and indulgence in mind, but if you can tear yourself away from the resort, consider a sunset champagne cruise, a dolphin watching sail, or a rainforest hike, which can all be organised by the hotel.

About the location
The welcoming town of Soufriere, nestled along the Western coast of St Lucia, has French origins, which are reflected in its charm and character. Its colonial architecture never fails to impress, while the colourful, bustling seafront are is ideal for people watching. Explore the town’s authentic Creole restaurants, and hop between local bars, sampling the island’s famous rums.
Qualibou volcano, now dormant, provides the sulphur hot springs that are seen in the area, and it creates unbelievable views as it majestically extends out of the sea below. Also make time for the Pitons, two gigantic volcanic spires on either side of the bay, which have been awarded UNESCO World Heritage status. If you prefer to simply relax, head to Anse Chastanet, a sparkling turquoise bay surrounded by dramatic mountains and rainforest.

After postponing our wedding, we decided to proceed with the scheduled honeymoon and I can not be HAPPIER we did. The resort is gorgeous. The views are unmatched. We stayed in the hilltop suite (X7) and I???m convinced we had the best view. Our canopy bed felt like were sleeping in a tree house (photos attached).
Everyone was beyond friendly and helpful. Special thank you to Vianney!! The limited excursions were wonderful too. Definitely check out the sunset tour to see the gorgeous coast line.
We also did all inclusive and so happy we did... the food and drinks were amazing. We definitely got our moneys worth.
The ONLY ???negative??? thing for us was the lack of transportation to sugar beach. With covid the shuttle and other excursions were unavailable. And there are moths and creatures as to be expected. Watching the birds in the morning was amazing.
All in all we will be back!! Thank you Ladera!
AND A HUGE THANK YOU TO OUR TRAVEL AGENT: Ruth DeMuth front TripGuy Travel. She made everything effortless and worked closely with the resort to get us the special package we wanted. Can???t say enough good things. When our flights got canceled, she came to our aid and rescue. Thank you Ruth!!

This place is amazing! When we arrived, we were greeted by the nicest staff! I don't think I ran across one single person that wasn't super friendly.
Once we walked into our room, our mouths dropped at the view in front of us. The pool looked welcoming and the ocean and pitons in front of us were unreal.
The hiking trails were awesome. The view from the top is the best there is in my opinion.
The ONLY thing I can think of that wasn't my favorite were the amount of moths that were there. When you wake up in the morning they are everywhere. It makes sense because there are only 3 walls and the ocean view is wide open. Thank goodness for the net around the bed. (The staff cleans the room from top to bottom every single day to get rid of the dead bugs.
Other than that, it was absolutely PERFECT. I highly recommend this resort!

We had an amazing stay at Ladera last week! From their helpful and fun staff, to amazing food prepared by Chef Nigel and co, to the beautiful property, amazing views, and feeling of being a part of nature, I would highly recommend staying here. They did an excellent job following covid protocols as well- hand sanitizer was readily available throughout the property, and temperatures taken before every meal and when leaving/entering the property (for guests and cab drivers as well). Thank you, Ladera, for our relaxing and fun stay!

This was our second stop for our honeymoon and this resort is breathtaking! We could sit outside and look at the view all day. We stayed two nights and enjoyed our short stay. Even though COVID didn???t allow us to do some activities on and off the resort, we still enjoyed our time. The staff are friendly and the food was some of the best we have ever had, especially the lobster and Dasheene shrimp!
We got some of most peaceful sleep because of the open wall concept. We fell asleep to the frogs and waterfall in our room. Amazing!
We hope to return when things are fully open again.
We definitely recommend staying here.
