Reviews
Loved Ladera!
We loved Ladera! The rooms were very clean and the view is absolutely beautiful. The resort is quiet and perfect for relaxing. The shuttle service makes it easy to go to nearby beaches. The food is great and the people working were so kind. I was initially nervous for the open air concept, but Ladera does such a grad job of cleaning the rooms and property that it’s nothing but relaxing and beautiful to have the open wall. We are so happy we stayed here on our honeymoon!
Honeymoon in paradise, a must stay
My husband and I recently stayed at Ladera for our honeymoon, and we only made one mistake -- going anywhere else before. We should have spent the entire duration of our honeymoon in paradise, at this incredible resort. If you stop reading here and are debating staying at Ladera, hit that book button, you won't regret it.
STAFF
The kindest team of people work here. Every single person we encountered went above and beyond to ensure that our stay here was nothing short of magical. Their warmth and service is unmatched to any place I've ever stayed. We had a rough time getting from our previous honeymoon stop to St. Lucia (ferry problems, nothing to do with the hotel) and Ariella calmly and lovingly talked two honeymooners down from a meltdown. She ensured we would get to the hotel safe and sound, and truly saved the day. Kelly in the spa gave me the best massage I've ever had (and I love massages and go frequently). The entire spa team oozed warmth and professionalism, it was a highlight of my stay. Darrel and the rest of the butler team were so involved in making sure we were comfortable and happy (but how could we not be). Dave the pool guy was as knowledgeable and friendly as could be. Truly every single person we encountered made our trip a little bit better.
FOOD
The resort was so stunning, we hated the idea of leaving it, even for a meal. Luckily, we had Dasheene. Each meal was exceptional, the variety was spectacular, and the restaurant itself was breathtaking. Each meal felt like an experience, so budget time to enjoy and relax.
ATMOSPHERE/ROOM
We stayed in one of the Paradise Ridge suites, and all my friends and family have been subjected to either video or facetime tours of the room. Waking up, looking at the pitons and over the water was incredibly peaceful, I could have stayed in the room the entire time we were there and I would have been unbelievably happy.
EXCURSIONS
I could have stayed in the room, but was very glad we left. We did the soufriere experience and had the best time. The personal tour was relaxing, well paced, and let us see so much of the island in one morning. Next time we come back, we'll hopefully have time to do more (though I will need to read this as a reminder that it's worth leaving my room).
All in all, just wanted to send a heartfelt thank you to the Ladera team. This is a trip my husband and I will be talking about for years to come.
Exceptional experience
What an excellent experience. Room and the views are magnificent. Service is exceptional. The staff is going above and beyond. Special thanks to Swithvie who works there. She went above and beyond organizing us everything we needed. Best beaches and restaurants in the area. Definitely recommend this resort.
A wonderful gem in an incredible setting
Where to start? The location and view are truly unmatched. The gardens are beautiful and very well kept. The 3 walls rooms are exquisite, providing an unobstructed view to the Pitons and the Caribbean Sea. We were in a Gros Piton room. The personnel was incredibly kind and genuinely happy to be at our service. The food is delicious. The spa is a real treat. The head of concierge services Carolin is wonderful, the yoga and fitness coach Anson is extremely kind and knowledgeable. We spent 5 days in Paradise and if Seattle was not so far from Soufriere, we would go back every year or so. Thank you Ladera for your incredible hospitality.
Simply amazing, staff is extremely welcoming and kind
The hotel is located in the UNESCO heritage site, overlooking to sea. The view is amazing. The hotel has a very local feel and atmosphere with amazing gardens and a brilliant natural trail. The rooms are in open air and offer an amazing view, night and day. The rooms are immaculate. The hotel offers all commodities (gym, spa, yoga, bars, free wifi). But most importantly, the staff is amazingly friendly, fun and helpful. The hotel is located in front of hotel chocolat and at a stone throw of the quaint and beautiful village of Soufrière. Honestly, the Ladera offered one of the best holidays in my life. Go there and just enjoy!
Breathtaking views. Amazing room. Great food. Outstanding service
This resort is magical! The rooms with the open air, pool, and views were amazing. The food and customer service were top notch. I never went on vacation and spent that much time in my room. Amazing!! Highly recommend this beautiful resort for couples.
