About
Jade Mountain Resort sits in Soufrière, on the island of Saint Lucia in the Caribbean, where the landscape is dominated by the twin volcanic peaks known as the Pitons. The resort, also known simply as Jade Mountain, is an accommodation choice for travellers who want to stay as close to that scenery as possible.
What the stay is like
The resort describes itself as ultra-luxury, and its defining feature is the design of its suites. Each one has an open fourth wall, so the view of the Pitons becomes part of the room itself. Every suite also includes a private infinity pool, which lets guests swim while looking out over the valley and the mountains beyond.
The resort's infinity pool sanctuaries are the focus for most visitors. They offer a quiet, private setting for relaxing, and they make the views the main attraction of a stay rather than a backdrop to it.
Who it suits
- Couples and travellers looking for a romantic or restful break
- Guests who want privacy and a high standard of accommodation
- Anyone drawn to dramatic landscape and the Pitons in particular
The area around it
Soufrière is the town nearest the resort and sits within a mountainous, green part of the island. Staying here places you within reach of the wider landscape of Saint Lucia, and the Pitons remain the region's most recognisable natural feature. Because the resort is set into the hillside, many guests choose to spend much of their time on site, enjoying the suites and pools, while others explore the surrounding area by arrangement.
If you are planning a visit, Jade Mountain is best considered by those who value a secluded, view-focused stay in a dramatic setting, and who are happy to make the resort the centre of their trip.
