Most exciting new hotel in the world?

Friday, 06 Mar, 2007 0

Jade Mountain in St. Lucia is hailed as a “masterpiece” and “the most exciting new hotel in the world” claimed a cover story of Caribbean & Life Magazine.

Said writer Joan Tapper:

 “From the moment I walked through the towering jalousied wooden door of my “infinity pool suite” – one of 24 individually designed and furnished accommodations, all with open fourth walls and awe-inspiring Pitons panoramas – I simply wanted to stare at it, reach out and touch it, inhale it and savor it.”

Opening last fall, high on Morne Anse Chastanet, the resort overlooks St.Lucia’s Piton World Heritage site and the Caribbean Sea.

 “Jade Mountain is literally and creatively on another level,” says Ms Tapper, praising its infinity pool sanctuaries and its design in harmony with the Caribbean environment.

Rooms seem to float in space with the 4th wall missing entirely.

The facility also has two beaches.

Rates start at $950, not including an 18% service tax.
