Perched 1,000 feet above the Caribbean on a volcanic ridge between the Pitons, Ladera is the original St. Lucia open-air luxury concept — every villa and suite has a missing fourth wall that frames an open vista of jungle, sea, and summit. Open-air plunge pools, earthy stone and hardwood interiors, and a celebrated organic farm-to-table restaurant make it a jewel of ecological luxury.

Accessible only by water taxi from the roadside jetty, Discovery at Marigot Bay occupies one of the Caribbean's most picturesque natural harbours. The resort's villas and suites spill across lush hillsides around a jewel-like marina, with the excellent Doolittles restaurant perched at the water's edge. Seclusion, beauty, and surprisingly competitive rates make this a smart choice.
