The Ladera resort in Saint Lucia.
Boutique Luxury Hotel of the Year: Ladera, Saint Lucia The 37-room Ladera first pioneered the three-walled room concept when it debuted decades ago, and today this boutique is a shining example of the transcendent experience you can find at the best boutique accommodations. This is a bucket-list hotel but also a magnificently-executed luxury property, from passionate but casual service to tremendous food. But, most importantly, it never loses its vast connection to the local community in Soufriere, providing for the ultimate expression of true Caribbean luxury.
