Located in the eastern Caribbean Sea, Jade Mountain
in St. Lucia is one of the most incredible resorts the Sifter has seen.
Each room has only three walls and a private infinity pool with
stunning panoramic views of the beautiful Caribbean. A tropical oasis,
this slice of heaven doesn’t come cheap, with nightly rates ranging from
$950 up to $2,700 US. One can dream though!
Check out the gallery of images below along with information on the resort and rooms. Sigh…
JADE MOUNTAIN, ST. LUCIA
Rising majestically above the 600 acre beach front resort of Anse Chastanet, Jade Mountain is a cornucopia of organic architecture celebrating St Lucia’s stunning scenic beauty.
Architect owner Nick Troubetzkoy has expanded upon his philosophy of building in harmony with Caribbean nature in his creation of Jade Mountain. The bold architectural design – individual bridges leading to exceptional infinity pool sanctuaries and rugged stoned-faced columns reaching towards the sky – makes Jade Mountain one of the Caribbean’s most mesmerizing resort experiences.
Expect grand sweeping spaces where bedroom, living area and an extravagant private infinity pool glide into one another to form extraordinary platforms floating out into nature. With the fourth wall entirely absent, Jade Mountain’s sanctuaries are stage-like settings from which to embrace the full glory of St Lucia’s Pitons World Heritage Site, and of course, the eternal Caribbean Sea.
Wrapped around an infinity pool with a dazzling kaleidoscope of colors, the Jade Mountain Club caters exclusively to resident guests, celebrating James Beard Award winner, Chef Allen Susser’s “Jade Cuisine.” Hovering in space above the Jade Mountain Club is the Celestial Terrace, perfect for sunset cocktails or star-gazing.
A wide range of spa services can be enjoyed in the privacy of the Jade Mountain sanctuaries or at Kai en Ciel, Jade Mountain’s boutique spa and fitness studio.
The Jade Mountain sanctuaries are deliberately techno-free; there are no telephones, radio or television. Internet access is available at reception for those who simply cannot let go of the outside world as the resort encourages you to! The resort major domos and a dedicated resort team ensure outstanding service around the clock.
Enjoy the exclusivity and privacy of Jade Mountain with all of Anse Chastanet’s restaurants, bars, boutiques, art gallery, spa, scuba, bike and watersports facilities as well as 2 soft sand beaches available to Jade Mountain guests at all times.

Culinary Resources
The 600 acre resort estate includes the old colonial plantation of Anse Mamin. Originally a sugarcane plantation in the 18th century, its fields were eventually turned towards cocoa bean production. The cocoa trees are still numerous on the grounds for guest to see and for us to produce our own estate chocolates. Anse Mamin is a wonderful organic resource for our menu, including turmeric, cashews, tamarind, mango, avocado, oranges, tangerines, guavas, papaya, coconut, breadfruit, yams and sweet potatoes.
Our organic farm EMERALD ESTATE in the Soufriere hills plays a major role also. From vanilla beans, bay leaf, nutmeg trees, cinnamon trees, numerous varieties of mango, sour orange and coconut trees, the Emerald farm also grows leaves, micro greens, vegetables, and herbs for the restaurant. Our close relationship with many fishermen in town as well as up and down the coast gives us access to the freshest and most pristine fish in St Lucia.
