The 7 Best Luxury Hotels in St Lucia

The 7 Best Luxury Hotels in St Lucia

St Lucia is made for luxury getaways. Essentially divided into two distinct regions, there is Rodney Bay which is ideal for lazy beach days and modern comforts and on the opposite side is Soufrière which has old plantations and hidden beaches for something a little more Robinson Crusoe (albeit with a luxury base). This picturesque island has unsurprisingly got an excellent range of high-end accommodation. Our hotel experts have compiled a collection of the best luxury hotels in St Lucia ranging from family-friendly affairs with both kids' clubs and memorable spas to boutique adult-only hideaways perfect for romantic escapes. So why not browse through our collection to start planning your next luxury break?

For families

Windjammer is an elegant family-friendly beachside resort. Luxurious rooms and villas feature contemporary furniture, four-poster beds, and private terraces. The larger suites make for a comfortable stay for families. With an excellent kids' club and a spoiling spa for adults, this is a real crowd-pleaser.
The Landings Resort & Spa is a luxury all-suite hotel with its own marina. Ideal for independent travellers, these are fully functioning apartments with kitchens, sea-facing balconies and even washing facilities. However, you can still expect hotel luxuries including an excellent kids' club, a restaurant, and a spa.
Sugar Beach, a Viceroy Resort is a stunningly situated family-friendly hotel. Elegant rooms have white furniture, opulent bathrooms, a private garden, and a plunge pool. With tennis courts, a kids' club for all ages, a spa, and direct beach access — this is a real has-it-all stay.

For a boutique

Cap Maison is a sensational boutique hotel set above Smuggler's Cove. The 49 accommodation options include both rooms and villas and the decor feels old-worldy with dark wood furniture and large verandahs. With a spa, gym, pool and restaurant this property has all the facilities of the larger resorts but the feel is intimate and personal. Suitable for couples, groups or families.

For a hideaway

Rabot Hotel is a chic contemporary hotel hidden amidst a cocoa plantation. Rooms have dark wood furniture, modern four-poster beds and sumptuous bathrooms. The property boasts a fabulous infinity pool with views of the pitons, a spa, restaurant featuring a cocoa-based menu and a great bar. Ideal for those wanting a slice of urban chic, off the beaten track.

For a couples' escape

Jade Mountain is a sublime hotel on the mountainside. The spacious rooms all have views of the Piton Mountains, wooden floors, modern furniture and private infinity pools. Expect outstanding seafood cuisine and a slick bar area. With an adult ambience, jaw-dropping views, and spa treatments — this is the perfect hideaway for two.
Ladera is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Beautifully crafted wooden suites with private plunge pools open onto dramatic views of St Lucia’s Pitons. The secluded setting within a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the adult-only policy (not to mention the luxurious spa and romantic restaurant) make this an ideal choice for couples.
