A 15.25-meter (50-foot) freeform, mosaic-tile pool features an infinity edge offering a panoramic view of Piton peaks and Jalousie Bay 304.75 meter (1,000 feet) below the ridge on which the resort sits. A wood deck furnished with cushioned lounge chairs fronts the pool and provides the same view.
Ladera Resort furnishes complimentary snorkeling gear, beach chairs, and beach towels; complimentary, scheduled shuttle service is provided to Jalousie Bay beach, 4.75 km (3 miles) away, and Anse Chastanet beach, 9.5 km (6 miles) away, for swimming and snorkeling. Independent operators offer scuba diving and other water sports at the beaches.
From either beach, guests can take a water taxi to Anse Mamin, a former plantation adjacent to Anse Chastanet. It features 19.25 km (12 miles) of groomed mountain-biking trails, and separate hiking trails through jungle and among mango, coconut, banana, guava, cocoa, and citrus. Mountain-bike rentals are available.
This resort's trees, shrubs, and flowers are marked by numbers, permitting guests to take self-guided nature tours or to join complimentary guided tours. On request, an outside instructor comes to the resort for yoga and fitness sessions (surcharges).
