Soufrière, St Lucia
Location
Soufrière, above Anse Chastanet
On a cliff above sister resort Anse Chastanet on a 600-acre estate at Soufriere, with direct Piton views in the Pitons-south cluster — the grandest of the open-wall resorts, around forty-five minutes to an hour from Hewanorra, or a short helicopter hop.
Transfer
By road or helicopter
Around forty-five minutes to an hour by road from Hewanorra in the south, near Soufriere and the Pitons — the nearer end of the island to the long-haul airport, with helicopter transfers especially popular for the cliff-top arrival.

Overview
The open-wall Piton sanctuary
Jade Mountain is the Caribbean's most iconic room design — open-fourth-wall sanctuaries with private infinity pools framing the Pitons, the grandest and most architectural of the island's open-wall resorts, set on a cliff above its sister resort Anse Chastanet on a 600-acre estate at Soufriere. Twenty-nine sanctuaries run to twenty-four with private infinity pools — the STAR, MOON, SUN and GALAXY categories by size, the three Galaxy sanctuaries the largest with the most commanding 270-degree views — plus five SKY whirlpool suites, each with an open fourth wall, fifteen-foot ceilings and no televisions. The Jade Mountain Club brings James Beard-winning Jade Cuisine by Chef Allen Susser, the Celestial Terrace is for sunset cocktails and stargazing, and the boutique Kai en Ciel spa offers in-sanctuary treatments. Adults-oriented at fifteen and over, with Anse Chastanet's two beaches and dive centre on the estate below, it is the apex of the Pitons set, around forty-five minutes to an hour from Hewanorra or a short helicopter hop.
