Our stay at Ladera was nothing short of enchanting! We spent almost a week in this paradise on earth. The grounds were meticulously maintained, and the view from our room was simply breathtaking. We couldn't resist taking countless photos of the mesmerizing scenery! Throughout our stay, the staff were friendly and professional. While I wouldn't classify Ladera as a top-tier luxury hotel, it undoubtedly ranks among the most splendid places we've ever had the pleasure of staying. Each morning, we woke up to the tropical sun, birds singing and the gentle caress of the jungle breeze. What an unforgettable experience! Although Ladera features only one on-site restaurant, it exceeded our expectations (as some reviewers mentioned it was repetitive). While we ventured to dine at a few other places, including the Sugar Beach Resort restaurant, none could rival the culinary delights we found at Darsheen. Despite the several bug bites during our stay, the allure of the open-air rooms was worth it. By the way, the room was equipped with insect repellant, after bite, eye mask, earplugs, binoculars, etc, and the US power sockets. I wholeheartedly recommend Ladera to anyone seeking a truly magical retreat. From its idyllic setting to its impeccable service, it's an experience not to be missed. 😊We plan to come back 😊

A truly amazing experience. We stayed for 4 nights in a paradise ridge room with a small pool in the room. The view of the pitons is simply spectacular and you feel immersed in nature. We had a few birds wander in and out from the open end of the room. Had no issue at all with mosquitoes mentioned in other reviews. We love to sleep in cold temperatures and the lack of AC was not much of an issue. A cool breeze every night even required a light cover. The staff is simply amazing, professional and extremely accommodating. Caroline worked some magic getting us a reservation at Orlando’s in Soufrière, which in my view is a must visit. All in all, the visit exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend a stay at Ladera. Well worth the money. We are already making plans for our kids to visit on their anniversaries.

We thoroughly enjoyed interacting with the staff. The groundskeepers liked to share their knowledge of all the plants on the property. Reception staff was always available to help with transportation to and from destinations. I'm glad they give you a cell phone for use during your stay. Each room is different but they all have the in room plunge pool overlooking the bay. Because we liked the Dasheen restaurant, we never had to venture outside the resort to try other restaurants. Althought the resort was fully booked it never seemed crowded and you didn't run into many other guest while wandering the property. The hiking trails around the property led you to some wonderful views of the Pitons and ventured to unique areas around the property, like the tree house.

Don’t have enough good things to say about Ladera. From Melissa at the front desk to Ray the gardener, the staff was incredibly friendly and always helpful. They were extremely accommodating in helping us make our honeymoon perfect and always made sure we had a safe ride to and from where we wanted to go - even when we made last minute changes to our plans. I cannot wait to return to this resort, it is truly something special. Feel so lucky to have been able to stay there!

Stayed at Ladera for my birthday and my boyfriend and I had the most amazing, tranquil, and fun experience! Rohan and Devonte particularly went above and beyond to make our stay unforgettable! No need for a fourth wall with our spectacular view from our paradise ridge room and no need for ac with such beautiful weather in December. The bar/dasheene restaurant staff were also amazing and made you feel at home by learning our names and their warm welcomes each day. Thank you Ladera!

This property was the 1st of our stays in St Lucia and was beautiful with great service, food and stunning views and comfortable bed! The gym was great too. Would definitely go back! Things to note - the rooms are open to the elements so if mosquitos love you (like me), go very prepared with coils and repellent. It is warm at night, but they provide fans which generally do the trick. They charge for non continental items on the ‘free breakfast’ which is pretty cheeky. So I wouldn’t go for a breakfast included option for extra, because it’s not. An excellent stay and twice as good as Hotel Rabot (chocolat) over the road.

Amazing food and great and friendly staff. I didn't plan anything but the conceirge set up everything for me to do for the week.

I can’t single out just one person because the service was incredible but our butlers, wow, we were very pampered. The view from our room was out of this world spectacular.

I can't say enough good things about Ladera. We went for our Honeymoon and it was absolute paradise. First and most importantly, the staff were beyond welcoming, kind, and accommodating. Every detail was thought through from the welcome rum drink to the tasty check-out treat and everything in-between. The food at Dasheene was fabulous, the views beyond real, and the rooms comfortable and relaxing. While you might think it would be hot and buggy with the open wall concept, it truly wasn't bad - especially with the bug net and spray! The cool air off the ocean makes it comfortable. I think the fourth wall removed is all part of the unique experience! The resort is a quick taxi ride down to the beaches and town of Soufriere, and walking distance from the Robot restaurant where all dishes and cocktails are made from locally grown Cocoa (delish). To be honest, we barely wanted to leave the resort. It was so relaxing and beautiful. While we went during the rainy season, it actually added to the beauty. The property was green and luscious, taken care of by Ray - who climbed up a tree to gift us with some Saint Lucian apples. So cool! We got a couples massage (which was AMAZING) and did the Land & Sea tour which I would highly recommend. Lastly, Caroline took care of our every need (thank you!). I can only hope to get back to St. Lucia, and of course, stay at the beautiful Ladera. Thank you to all the wonderful staff for an unforgettable stay.

This resort is absolutely perfect. We stayed for 5 nights in the paradise ridge suite. First of all the pictures are accurate to what you see online. The wood and design of the room is very Lucian and has so much culture. The pool is incredible and has the most amazing view. The shower is beautiful with all of the tile. We loved our room and have no complaints. The weather can change pretty quickly and by that I mean rain for a few minutes then stop. But everything is covered besides half the pool so you can still swim and not get caught in the rain. The staff is incredible. Everyday your butler stocks your mini fridge with water and soda- and you have a phone provided to call your butler if you need anything. You also get 2 beers stocked in your fridge and nespresso cups every day. Also every day house keeping and pool cleaning is performed. There is a turn down service at the end of the night to fix your bed and light candles to keep the bugs away. Also keep the netting around your bed to ensure no bugs get in. Speaking of bugs we really didn’t have any issues with the candles lit- the only this is there is a short 5 minute walk to the restaurant- we didn’t spray ourselves and got some mosquito bites- so spray yourself. The food at the restaurant on the resort is incredible, we also ate at hotel chocolate across the street. The staff is willing to help in any way to make you happy. The views are breath taking. Highly recommend this resort!

The views and grounds are amazing. The resort was very private and had a very relaxed feeling. The staff and butlers were excellent, particularly Rohan and Devontae. They addressed every need and then some. The room was amazing! My only complaint would be the food at Dasheene. It was a little overpriced for what you got and not enough options for the quality of the resort. Overall, we had an excellent stay and will definitely stay here again and would recommend this resort to anyone.

Honeymoon Adventure!
Arguably the best decision we made for our honeymoon was to stay at the Ladera Resort! It was BEAUTIFUL from the moment we arrived. The entire resort is breathtaking, but the view from our room (Suites at Paradise Ridge) was truly unforgettable and only rivalled by the view from Dasheene restaurant, which is an absolute must for dinner! Also, we were very surprised at how much larger the rooms are than they appear online. Perhaps the best part of our stay was the employees. They made us feel so welcomed and at peace throughout our stay. From the front desk and concierge to the butlers and the restaurant staff, every person we interacted with was top notch! It was truly a pleasure to interact with them during our stay. In fact, they were so great, we want to give them additional kudos by mentioning them by name (apologies for any misspellings!!). So massive thanks to Devante, Vianney, Irvin, Saidley, Theo, Cindy, Mishka, Lee, Jennifer, and the entire team at Ladera for making our honeymoon absolutely perfect! We can't wait to come back and see you all again!
