At a glance
Jade Mountain sits above Anse Chastanet Bay on the south-western coast of St Lucia, on a 600-acre tropical estate with the twin volcanic peaks of the Pitons, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, rising from the Caribbean Sea below. Designed by architect-owner Nick Troubetzkoy.
Each of the 29 sanctuaries is accessed via its own private bridge and built without a fourth wall, opening entirely to the Pitons and the sea beyond. The floors are laid with over 20 sustainably sourced tropical hardwood species, the walls finished in coral plaster from Barbados. There are no televisions, radios or telephones in any sanctuary, making it one of the Caribbean’s most complete digital detox destinations.
The rest of the resort is built to match. A restaurant serving Jade Cuisine by James Beard Award-winning Chef Allen Susser. A spa with treatments available in the privacy of your own sanctuary. A chocolate laboratory and organic farm on site. And full access to sister resort Anse Chastanet, with two beaches, a PADI 5 Star scuba operation and over 12 miles of hiking trails.
Highlights
- 24 sanctuaries with private infinity pools and an open fourth wall facing the Pitons, plus five Sky suites with a chromatherapy couples tub
- Jade Cuisine by James Beard Award-winning Chef Allen Susser, with produce from the resort’s own organic farm and a chocolate laboratory on site
- Two Michelin Keys, AAA Five Diamond and LEED Gold certified, with two beaches and a PADI 5 Star scuba operation at sister resort Anse Chastanet
Accommodation
Suites
Every sanctuary at Jade Mountain is built without a fourth wall, open entirely to the Pitons and the Caribbean Sea, with 15-foot ceilings, king-size beds, Frette bathrobes and towels, Voya amenities and 24-hour butler service throughout.
The entry point is the Sky suite, five sanctuaries arranged across two levels with a large chromatherapy couples tub raised above the living space and open to the Pitons and the sea beyond.
Sanctuaries
The 24 infinity pool sanctuaries build progressively in scale through four categories, each an individual work of architecture with no two the same. The Star and Moon sanctuaries offer the open-wall concept and private infinity pool at a more intimate scale, ideal for couples seeking seclusion with the Pitons directly ahead.
The Sun sanctuaries occupy corner positions with 270-degree panoramic views and pools averaging 900 square feet, while the Galaxy sanctuaries crown the collection from the south-west corner of the resort, averaging 2,000 square feet with views on the property and an infinity pool

St Lucia
Known for its breathtaking scenery, the combination of mountains coated in jungle plants and the white sandy beaches along with the pockets of luxurious resorts makes it the perfect places to relax if you are seeking a laid-back atmosphere. Our favourite resorts are The Bodyholiday which is great if you are looking for a full body detox.
Stellar service. Stellar products. Stellar people and it gets so much better when you pick up the phone and call.
