Bonne Terre Vacations

This was a beautiful property for enjoying my last two days in Saint Lucia. Unfortunately I had no power for about 7 hours upon my first day which resulted in me missing my school course online. However, it eventually got restored. Room was nice and clean. Reception staff was amazing, and so was staff in doolittles restaurant which is attached to the resort. My only complaint was the security guard Ian, at first he was friendly and nice but then it turned creepy. Every time I would walk by him he kept saying he wanted to see me tonight and wanted to see me later and hopes he sees me. This was too much for me and made me extremely uncomfortable as a solo female traveller that I wouldn’t be out of my room once it got dark due to this. Otherwise I enjoyed my stay.

Fantastic stay at The Ladera. A real romantic stay with an open view across the pitons. The scenery was amazing and the resort continues to add and renovate extra features for you to explore. We loved the on-site nature trail and we didn't have a bad meal for our entire stay. We were well looked after and always greeted by name. Well done Ladera and staff!

The rooms have zero soundproofing as completely open to nature and the busy, noisy road close by. Difficult to sleep at night with all the traffic and animals noises. Recommend it for a few nights, but no more than 2-3 max

Friendly staff & clean hotel but not the best hotel for people in their 20s , 30s & 40s ; the hotel was catered to elderly retired . Location is far from everything, including the main airport (in Vieux Fort), expect to pay $80-$100 for cab services. Although an all inclusive, they make you pay for bottled water & chips & remember to bring a toothbrush & toothpaste, they’re not free . You must ask for an adapter for your electronics because depending on where you’re coming from (me it was the USA-Ny) their outlet won’t not compatible with your plug / adapters. The room which I stayed in had a lock indoor and outdoor, the indoor lock was very outdated and required your room key , locking and unlocking the door was a hassle do to a frame infront of the indoor lock. There’s no mini fridge readily available in rooms, you’d have to request one. A lot of older retired people are here & it’s a very quiet hotel with not much to do other than pool activities & dine. The hotel itself is beautiful & the people are friendly but I will not recommend this hotel to friends / coworkers & I will not stay at Bel Jou Hotel my next trip in St. Lucia.

No surprises. Property was just as pictured.
