Best Hotel in the World?


An engaged friend recently asked for seaside honeymoon suggestions since I am a tropical beach junkie. I immediately said she should go to Jade Mountain in St. Lucia, undoubtedly the greatest place I've ever been to in my entire life. (We mentioned it in our recent Caribbean travel package in the May/June issue.) The rooms only have three walls, and the fourth one is just a wide open view of the Piton mountains and the sea, which you can gaze out from your room's personal plunge pool. The picture here is of the actual room I stayed at two years ago, just as it opened. (No, I am not in the photo, and yes, feel free to hate me.) But honestly, as I told my friend, this is truly a place worth marrying for. One caveat: The toilet in the room only has three walls as well. (Weird!) But the lobby has very nice facilities, just in case you're not that close to your betrothed.
