Jade Mountain ResortSt. Lucia

Wide Open

First-time visitors to St. Lucia might think builders on the island paradise have short attention spans. That’s because two of the island’s top luxury resorts feature rooms that are missing one wall. The setup allows for jaw-dropping views of the Caribbean and the twin volcanic peaks of the Pitons. And there’s no TV, telephone, radio, or air conditioning, so nothing will distract guests who want to watch the sky as it fades to lavender-tinged pink, or listen to the nightly orchestral sounds of tree frogs, breezes rustling in the palms, and the patter of raindrops.
