JADE MOUNTAIN

By Chris Boyle

 

GALAXY INFINITY POOL SANCTUARY

Rising majestically above the 600-acre beachfront estate of Anse Chastanet, Jade Mountain is a cornucopia of organic architecture celebrating St. Lucia’s stunning scenic beauty.

Architect owner Nick Troubetzkoy has expanded upon his philosophy of building in harmony with Caribbean nature in his creation of Jade Mountain. The bold architectural design—individual bridges leading to exceptional infinity pool sanctuaries and rugged stoned-faced columns reaching towards the sky—makes Jade Mountain one of the Caribbean’s most mesmerizing resort experiences. Expect grand sweeping spaces where bedroom, living area and an extravagant private infinity pool glide into one another to form extraordinary platforms floating out into nature. With the fourth wall entirely absent, Jade Mountain’s sanctuaries are stage-like settings from which to embrace the full glory of St. Lucia’s Pitons World Heritage site, and of course, the eternal Caribbean Sea.
