Mount Houelmon

Our stay at Ladera was top tier! The view alone is the number one reason to book this resort. It felt like a dream! Our room had a small pool with small water fountain. Perfect and roomy enough for us both! The view of the Pitons and ocean never got old. The rooms are one-of-kind designed. And designed to maximize your privacy. The staff was friendly, warm and welcomed us everywhere we went on the property. We called her Sweet Caroline, she was the main concierge that walked us to our room, gave us detailed information and made us welcome cocktails! She has been with Ladera for 30 years, so she was very knowledgeable. We loved our breakfast staff at the Dasheene. Jennifer is the bartender that smiles, sings and gives the best hugs! Manette was fun organizing trips for us and making certain we were happy! Tips for your stay: Be sure to have tip money, I suggest to have a bunch of $10 bills on you. There is no ATM on the property. If you need cash, you have to do a cash advance that adds 10%. The rooms are mostly just fans & open air. No air-conditioning, which wasn’t a problem for us. They have some rooms that do have AC. The bed has a canopy with netting around it to keep the mosquitoes out, but we didn’t have a problem with them. The resort provided bug spray and many fans to keep them at bay. Ladera is nestled in the jungle, so you will hear birds and rain in the distance. Ear plugs and eye masks are provided. If you’re on the fence, book Ladera. Best view on the island!
