Travel Impressions Vacation Packages

Distance from Hotel to Hewanorra Airport (UVF), 11 miles (18 kms).  

Ladera is a resort that travelers dream about - a small, lush, tropical gem that is world acclaimed yet still relatively unknown. Located in south western Saint Lucia, Ladera is a paradise like no other to ignite your passions. Two miles from the port town of Soufriere, on a lush hill- side of mango trees, lay the lure of Ladera. With only 6 villas and 26 suites and a dedicated, attentive staff, Ladera offers an intimate experience and the ability to cater to your preference.
