Ladera was once part of Rabot Estate, one of Soufrière's oldest and most famous cocoa plantations. In 1982 it was transformed into the unique resort it is today. Taking full advantage of its natural surroundings, Ladera offers a unique design in guest accommodations. The 32 suites all have an "open wall" – the west side of each unit is left open to expose the breathtaking view, and the orientation of the buildings maintains complete privacy. As one of the top St. Lucia resorts, the suites are constructed of tropical hardwoods, stone and tile, furnished with locally crafted wood furniture, fixtures and accessories. All units are decorated with local artwork and feature magnificent views of the Pitons and Caribbean Sea.

Accomodation

Prepare to be embraced by the lush colors and wild calls of our "naturally" exotic surroundings.Guests in all of the 32 suites enjoy: An open wall in each suite, which transports you directly into the midst of our surrounding hillside paradise, while offering complete privacy and safety. A private plunge heated or non-heated pool, some with cascading waterfalls, which beckons you to enjoy a refreshing dip with your morning coffee or a relaxing break at any time of the day or night.

The Owners Cottage

A 40ft by 12ft infinity pool (cold plunge), adorns the west verandah of this luxurious cottage, giving the illusion of spilling down the hillside, emphasizing that 1,000 foot drop to the Caribbean Sea below. A fully equipped pool deck with alfresco dining area and sun loungers creates the perfect atmosphere in which to simmer down, sun bathe or become utterly entranced by the incredible Piton and Caribbean Sea views.

The villa boasts a thirty by thirty foot great room, surrounded on three sides with tall louvered doors, each opening onto a 10 foot covered verandah. It is ideal for relaxing and dining with its high vaulted wood ceilings and hand crafted exclusively designed wood furniture.

Attached to the great room, an open plan kitchen sets the tone for casual dining with a breakfast bar and metal stools. The kitchen is complete with modern appliances, including a side by side refrigerator with ice maker, stove, dishwasher, microwave and electric coffee maker.

A computer area off the bar is available with full Wifi access.

The spacious bedroom in the cottage is situated on the ground floor with its own private terrace. It comfortably houses a plush four poster King sized bed, walk in closet, safe, wet bar with small refrigerator and electric kettle. It is finished with a snug sitting area, en-suite bathroom, internet service and in-room telephone.

Dining

Dasheene Restaurant and Bar offer some of the best dining in the Caribbean and by far the best views. The open-air dining room features breathtaking vistas of the rainforest, the dramatic Piton peaks and the Caribbean Sea below. Dasheene's elegant decor uses natural fabrics and woods to complement the birds-eye view of the island from the 1,100-ft. ridge in southern Saint Lucia. The menu features innovative interpretations of Saint Lucian and Caribbean specialties, based on local produce, fresh fish and colorful presentations. In response to an increasing number of requests for fresh and more health-conscious entrees, Executive Chef, Nigel Mitchel has created a new menu, lighter in fare yet based on the same fresh, local ingredients and West Indian favorites.

Dasheene At Ladera

Guests and visitors flock to Dasheene to enjoy the spectacular views and award-winning cuisine. Best known for eclectic and innovative menu items, Dasheene is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, with a Sunday Brunch offering.

Dasheene sets itself apart by focusing on sustainable cooking sourced from locally harvested ingredients. Executive Chef, Nigel Mitchel's kitchen, is dedicated to serving up fresh native ingredients from island farmers and neighboring plantations that grow their produce primarily for the resort.

Chef Nigel's cooking renders stylish interpretations of traditional St. Lucian dishes, such as sweet potato and coconut soup, Caribbean lamb salad, roast conch with pickled vegetables served in a yam basket, Cajun Creole vegetable bakes, jerk poulet sausage, plantain gratin with coconut rum sauce and more.

The Bar at Dasheene is open from 9am each day. It is a perfect setting for a pre-dinner cocktail or to enjoy a live music show. Part of Dasheene Restaurant, the Bar shares the same unobstructed sea views flanked by St. Lucia's signature twin volcanic Piton peaks.

Wine Cellar

The Wine Cellar at Dasheene Restaurant is ideal for a private dining experience. Lovers who are looking for the opportunity to propose, can enjoy a special exclusivity to celebrate the occasion. Honeymooners can surprise each other with a very romantic dinner during their stay. Simply relax and allow your private server for the evening to pair your meal with delicious wines for an unforgettable experience.

Recreation

St. Lucia is a feast for the senses. From its mountains to its flora, and from its food to its people, the island beckons you to explore its lush terrain and to fall in love with its culture. Ladera is pleased to offer you a range of sightseeing activities on and around St. Lucia that will allow you to appreciate the uniqueness of its Caribbean history and the magnificence of its tropical location.

Spa in St. Lucia

The Spa at Ladera features indulgent treatments inspired by Saint Lucia's volcanic history and the lush rainforest that surrounds this peaceful retreat. We are proud to use Sothy's products for all of our treatments.

The Spa offers four serene treatment rooms – all in keeping with the same intimate design and scale of Ladera's suites.

Visit the spa for a treatment to ready yourself for the day ahead, or select another to unwind after a day of play. The choice is yours.
