The sounds of the Ladera resort are all natural and beautiful. the sounds were frogs, crickets, birds, wind, and other creatures of the night I could not readily identify, but they were all pleasant. To enhance this experience there is no fourth wall so the sounds are easily heard day and night. If you dont like the potential aspect of... more

We went to the restaurant to see the view that is on the St. Lucia advertisements. I wouldn't have missed it for anything...please consider staying here, if you can get a room. Food was fabulous...we only went for lunch, but we were blown away. A gun on every table...a water gun in case the birds want your food...lots of fun,... more

Our Honeymoon at Ladera was the greatest experience of our lives! The views, the 2-story treehouse, the food, the service, the staff...all were top notch in our book. Seriously, we could not have written in any better! Worth every penny. We stayed 6 nights at Ladera and from the time we were dropped off till the time we left, the... more

Well I'm actually writing this review from Miami airport, enroute to home from Ladera - so I'm just going to simply say that it was a wonderful hotel. You MUST Go. Just make sure you don't make the same mistake as us and head off to another restaurant instead of eating at DASHEEN - it has the best food in... more

Its hard to describe our experience because my husband and I always have fun with each other no matter where we go. We did enjoy viewing the walk-in volcano and experiencing zip lining through the rainforest. We also had an amazing dinner at the Rainforest Hideaway. I guess the accommodations are what impacted our whole experience in St. Lucia. If... more

Let me first start by saying that on our first day there, we woke up to a double rainbow centered between the two Piton mountains. That pretty much sums up our entire trip- majestic and breathtaking. We were there for our Honeymoon and Ladera far exceeded our expectations. The staff was amazingly friendly (Ethelbert is the best tour guide available!)... more

Ladera is quaint and luxurious in a non-pretentious way. YOU WILL LOVE IT: But, if you consider yourself high maintenance, demanding, or squeamish about birds, salamanders and tiny (but noisy) frogs, then Ladera may not be for you. My husband and I found the resort to be outstanding but the luxuries here are different than those of an urban 5... more

This review is way overdue, as we went on our honeymoon to St. Lucia in May, but even several months later we're still raving about what an amazing trip we had! Ladera is the main reason we decided to honeymoon in St. Lucia-I had read an article about the hotel in a magazine right before we got engaged and we... more

for $1000.00 per day (all inclusive), Id expect over the top, but that is not the case. Staff, food, grounds, and view all A+, and really about the best I've ever experienced. Bugs and sleeping at nite was a bit much. The tree frogs (some who come visiting and must number in the 100's) croak all nite long. We really... more
