Spotlight on Jade Mountain

With breath-taking views of the Piton mountains, stunning infinity pool sanctuaries and 24-hour butler service, you’ll never have been anywhere quite like Jade Mountain.

Eat

Surrounded by spectacular views of the Piton Mountains and encircled by a dazzling infinity pool, reflecting a kaleidoscope of vibrant colours that match the Caribbean sunset, dining at Jade Mountain Club is an experience you’ll never forget.

With Chef Allen Susser’s aptly-named “Jade Cuisine” created from both cultural influences and unique techniques, you’re bound to enjoy an authentic Caribbean feast. Each mouthful erupts with flavour, as Chef Allen carefully manipulates tropical flavours to the best of their ability. Both delicious and with an element of Saint Lucian fusion, you’ll never have tasted anything quite like this before in the Caribbean. What’s more, no matter when you visit, there’s always a different flavour to reflect the season you’re visiting in.

Exclusive to guests only, Jade Mountain Club is open for breakfast, lunch or dinner, although, we recommend attending in the evening for live entertainment, including jazz musicians and classical acoustic guitarists.

“Dining at Jade Mountain was quite the experience, to say the least. While the breathtaking views take centre stage, the food surpassed with impeccable flavours. If I had to recommend one dish, it would be the Caribbean Bouillabaisse paired perfectly with an aromatic Viognier white wine”. Stephen Bray, Personal Travel Expert, Kuoni Liverpool.

Relax

Not content with offering a carefully selected array of spa treatments either in the privacy of your own infinity pool sanctuary or in Jade Mountain’s boutique spa, Kai en Ciel, this resort also has their Kai Mer spa cottage.

Kai en Ciel offers a varied menu of classic and beauty treatments, as well as holistic products and ayurvedic services to relieve you of any daily stresses. During your stay at Jade Mountain, you’re also free to attend complimentary yoga classes.

But if Jade Mountain shines anywhere, it’s with its honeymooner’s Alchemy of Two romance ritual. If you're celebrating your special time away, then sink into a hot tub containing Body Bliss Elixir Male and Elixir Female Oils and indulge in a number of delicious treats. Follow this up with an asynchronous massage side by side and you’re set for a romantic afternoon.

Stay

Each infinity pool sanctuary at Jade Mountain is a work of art, carefully designed so that each has an unparalleled view of the Pitons as well as the Caribbean Sea. Each sanctuary has been built with 15-foot-high ceilings and a completely open forth wall to allow for amazing views yet absolute privacy. 

All sanctuaries are furnished with handmade pieces made from varying tropical wood alongside hand-picked ornate items, so each one feels unique and authentic. These materials have been sourced from the Rainforest of Guyana, and specifically chosen by technicians at Jade Mountain.

In addition to the immersive decor, you'll also receive a “firefly” communication device that means you can contact the service team at any moment of your stay if there are any problems.

“Each room is astonishing – a true masterpiece, blending open plan design with romantic seclusion. You feel as though you’re part of the landscape as you take in the unobstructed view of the Pitons” - Dev Armugam, Store Manager, Kuoni Meadowhall

Play

Whilst Jade Mountain is ideal if you want to take it easy and relax a little, it’s also great if you're looking for a fun-filled holiday, with added excursions. With plenty of breathtaking coral reefs and two exquisite sand beaches, you’ll never be short of something to do.

Some of the facilities available to you during your stay include offshore snorkelling and scuba diving, including Saint Lucia’s five-star PADI resort centre with a full diving program. If you’d rather stay on dry land and discover some of the jungle expanse around the resort, then jungle biking or an escorted hike is a must, just don’t forget to take your camera for snapping the local wildlife. After a bike, dive or walk, you can always relax with a sunset sail on the Jazzy Sunset Cruise aboard 60-foot resort catamaran, Miss Babsie.

If you can pry yourself away from this idyllic setting, the resort’s concierge and guest services staff can recommend and arrange some exciting excursions. This could be the Botanical Gardens, Sulphur Springs, drive-in volcano or a tour of the Gros Piton mountains.

A visit to the resort’s Emerald Estate promises a sweet experience, where you’ll learn about the fascinating process of bean to bar production. Afterwards, head back to the Chocolate Lab for a hands-on session in crafting your own perfect bar.

“If you’re craving more chocolate bliss, indulge in the spa’s array of treatments, from Mocha massages to chocolate mask facials” - Linda Taylor, Personal Travel Expert, Kuoni Metrocentre
