How we play our part:
What makes Ladera Resort sustainable?
You cannot miss the furniture, panel, and sculpture creations here at Ladera. These “living works of art” are the work of our three master craftsmen, Boniface, Eustace, and Eustachius. They use tropical wood, tiles, and stones found on St. Lucia to create them at our onsite carpentry shop. Eustace, our Property & Maintenance Manager and champion of sustainability, has been here at Ladera for over 30 years and we can say that he built the resort with his bare hands! Eustachius designed most of the furniture, including the beds, making them rare treasures for our guests to enjoy and a showcase for our eco-friendly commitment.
Conserving water and energy are part of everyday practice here at Ladera. Our rain harvesting program captures and stores rainwater used for our landscape irrigation system. We use solar water heaters for the hot water in the suites and kitchen and have replaced bulbs with LED lights. We also observe the global “Earth Hour” every March by turning off all non-essential lights at the resort for one hour. You can help us with this by being aware of your energy and water usage while staying in one of our luxury suites.
