While here, take time to chill out in the unique Tree House which is built in a 300 year old Mango tree.

Signature Open-Air Design – Ladera’s unique architectural concept removes the fourth wall in every suite, opening directly to the breathtaking St. Lucian landscape.

Guests can savour gourmet dishes such as fresh-caught seafood, organic island vegetables, and authentic St. Lucian flavours, all while enjoying spectacular panoramic views of the Pitons.
Close to St. Lucia’s Top Attractions – Ladera is ideally located just minutes from some of the island’s most famous natural wonders, including the Sulphur Springs, Tet Paul Nature Trail, and Diamond Falls. Whether you want to take a volcanic mud bath, hike through lush rainforests, or discover hidden waterfalls, adventure is always within easy reach.
Luxury Wellness & Spa Experiences – The Ladera Spa takes inspiration from the island’s natural beauty, offering organic, locally sourced treatments such as cocoa-infused massages, volcanic mud wraps, and tropical body scrubs. Yoga and meditation sessions are also available, allowing guests to restore balance and harmony in this serene setting.
Complimentary Shuttle to Sugar Beach – Although Ladera is perched on a ridge, guests can still enjoy St. Lucia’s pristine white-sand beaches with a complimentary daily shuttle to Sugar Beach. Spend the day lounging by the crystal-clear waters, snorkelling among vibrant coral reefs, or indulging in a beachfront cocktail before returning to the tranquillity of the resort.
Eco-Friendly & Sustainably Built – Ladera is deeply committed to sustainability and environmental conservation. The resort was constructed using locally sourced hardwoods and stone, while its organic gardens supply fresh produce to Dasheene. This eco-conscious philosophy ensures that guests experience luxury with minimal impact on the environment.
