My Visit to Ladera, St. Lucia


On my recent Babymoon Vacation to St. Lucia, I had the pleasure of stopping by Ladera. At Ladera, its all about the view... stunning at every turn. Ladera is a luxury eco experience delicately located between the Twin Pitons on St. Lucia's southern coast...


The rooms are constructed of local woods and help the resort blend into the natural landscape. Open-aired and cooled by the constant sea breeze, each suite comes with its own private pool...


Some of the pools are both indoor/outdoor...


Plenty of wide open spaces to take in the view...


The cozy bedroom lofts also share the sweeping view...


The property is lush, green, and manicured to perfection...



Complimentary shuttle service delivers guests to the beach below anytime they want to stick their toes in the sand...


Ladera is home to the award winning restaurant, Dasheene. We shared a 3 hour meal with the famous Chef Orlando, referred to as the top ambassador of Ladera and creator of the most innovative and fresh cuisine on the island. This was one of the best meals I've ever had and certainly worthy of its own blog post - stay tuned! 


To view more photos of my visit to Ladera, jump over here.


Ladera is currently offering the 7th night free. Book and travel by December 20, 2011. Contact me for a customized quote on your vacation package to Ladera! 


See you there!

Malliouhana Resort & Spa in Anguilla

Malliouhana Hotel & Spa has been regarded as one of the finest resorts in the Caribbean since its opening in 1984. Perched atop a panoramic bluff overlooking the Caribbean and reaching down to the white sands of Meads Bay and Turtle Cove beaches, the resort blends the understated European elegance of service, comfort and fine dining, with the warmth and hospitality of the Caribbean.

This is my favorite area of the Malliouhana... the open air bar & lounge:




Each room and suite is extraordinarily spacious and appointed with the finest luxuries such as Italian marble bathrooms. Spread throughout the property - in the main house, in villas, on the beach, on the bluff and in the gardens - all are decorated with rich, dark walnut, rattan furnishings and colorful Haitian artwork.

 


The 15,000-square-foot oceanfront spa with therapists from around the world providing more than 65 individual treatments, from Ayurvedic, Asian and European traditions. Spa Cuisine at Malliouhana features rejuvenating dishes drawing on fresh, natural ingredients. Fitness facilities with men's and women's sauna and steam room, outdoor Jacuzzi, three fresh-water pools. Windsurfing and water skiing, sunfish, Laser sailboats and Prindle Catamarans.  Four lighted championship tennis courts,  half-court basketball, children's supervised outdoor playground on the beach including a pirate ship, 60-foot water slide, toddlers’ pool, ping-pong table, TV and video games.  Private motor launch to a deserted bay for snorkeling.


The best part of any Hotel in Anguilla is the beach... stunning...



Michel Rostang Restaurant at Malliouhana, recipient of many international awards, is under the guidance of Parisian Michelin two-star chef, Michel Rostang, and serves classic Mediterranean cuisine infused with local flavors. Home to the Caribbean's largest wine cellar, with over 25,000 bottles, Malliouhana is proud to hold the coveted "Wine Spectator Grand Award" consecutively since 1999.

My Visit to Excellence Playa Mujeres



The Excellence Resorts have one of the highest repeat guest ratings in the category of adults only all-inclusive resorts. They have 3 properties - the Excellence Riviera Cancun, the Excellence Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic, and my favorite, the Excellence Playa Mujeres. Playa Mujeres is north of Cancun proper. From the amazing beach, you can see Isla Mujeres. I love it that while this hotel is chic and modern, it doesn't stray entirely from classic Mexican decor:


All hotel rooms and bathrooms on property are created in the same design, with the same soft furnishings - the only difference between room categories is location and your travel agent will be able to help you decide on the best location for your stay:


The Excellence Spas are noteworthy for any spa connoisseur. They are clean & minimalist without feeling stark or cold. See the curtains below? They create a giant circle, or "the cloud" and inside you'll find aromatherapy candles, soft music, and cozy chaise lounges. This is where you will relax and wait for your service:


The open air design of the communal spa space houses a state-of-the-art water circuit to rival any spa worldwide:


These are the spa cabanas which are conveniently located in front of the spa and the lazy river:


There are so many pools on property that at any given time you will surely find one practically empty so you may enjoy a quiet and peaceful swim:


The pristine beach is a highlight. It is wide enough to house all guests comfortably and long enough to allow for lazy sunset strolls, cocktail in hand:


 The Excellence Playa Mujeres is a great choice for a honeymoon or a group of friends wanting a sophisticated beach getaway. The hotel is also one of our bride's top choices for a Destination Wedding. We've booked 11 weddings here in the past few years, including this one that I was lucky enough to attend.


For more photos from my visit click here to view our Flickr gallery!

We'd love to help your plan your Excellence vacation! Contact us!

Enjoy!
