The perfect romantic destination for honeymooners and anniversary trips, Jade Mountain, St. Lucia is world renowned for its stunning architecture.

It’s seductively nestled in a dense rainforest with breathtaking panoramic views of the jagged volcanic peaks of the Piton mountains and the shimmering Caribbean bay. Individual bridges lead to open air “sanctuary” guest rooms, featuring pristine infinity pools, high ceilings, and a 4th wall open to the views without compromising your privacy.

From birdwatching to scuba diving, cooking school to chocolate tours, there’s no shortage of blissful and exciting activities at your fingertips. St. Lucia offers a little bit of everything, and is an excellent spot for a maiden voyage to the Caribbean.
