A Long Overdue Review — and Worth Every Word I’m late writing this review, but I’m so glad I’m finally getting around to it. Jade Mountain is, without question, the best hotel experience I have ever had. Hands down. We visited in October 2021, at the tail end of the pandemic — back when we were still testing before flights and wearing masks. While the process of getting there was daunting, the moment we stepped onto the island and were whisked away on a seven-minute helicopter ride to Anse Chastanet, greeted with a sweet, fruity cocktail, my friend and I both knew we were in for something extraordinary. BEFORE BOOKING My friend had married in 2020 but never had the chance to properly celebrate, so I reached out to Anse Chastanet (Jade’s sister resort) to see if I could surprise her with a room upgrade that included a pool. The team there went above and beyond: while the only pool suite at Anse was already booked, they graciously upgraded us to Jade Mountain with a Sky Sanctuary suite. Although the Sky Sanctuary doesn’t include a private pool, the staff made sure our experience was even more special. They arranged a private swim and drinks session at the Jade Mountain Club infinity pool, located at the top of the resort’s main restaurant. My friend was floored — she had never experienced anything like it. Upon arrival, we were greeted by our Major Domo (butler), who walked us through every detail of the room and ensured we felt completely at home. THE ROOM At first, I wasn’t sure about the idea of an open-air room — but once you see that view, you wouldn’t want a wall blocking it either. Our suite was divided into four elegant areas: an entryway and small seating area, bedroom, bathroom, and living space. Everything was spacious, serene, and beautifully designed. Each day, we received a Bento box of special treats, an iPad to browse menus and book spa treatments, and a dedicated phone to reach our Major Domo anytime. He kept us effortlessly on schedule — confirming dinner reservations, arranging excursions, and coordinating rides up and down the hill between Jade Mountain and Anse Chastanet Beach (perfect for when we didn’t feel like walking). The room even came with tote bags for beach days — a thoughtful touch. EXCURSIONS We made the most of our stay, enjoying: A full-day sail with Captain Kerwin A Lionfish Tasting Dinner with wine pairing A Botanical Garden Tour Rum Tasting A Volcano Tour And some incredible snorkeling Each experience was seamlessly arranged and worth every minute. THE FOOD Every meal was outstanding. You have so many dining options, and it’s worth planning ahead since some experiences are available only on specific days or times. The Jade Mountain Club is reservation-only and exclusive to Jade guests — a must. Do note that certain premium proteins have a small upcharge even with the all-inclusive plan, but honestly, who flies to Saint Lucia for steak? Stick to the seafood, and you’ll be in heaven. All-Inclusive vs. À l

Unbelievable luxury, taken to the next level by a staff that is incredibly thoughtful and professional. An incredible experience, with some of the best sunsets you will ever see. Highly recommend the visit to Emerald Farm and cooking class with Chef Elijah, a culinary savant!
