'This luxury resort sits on the only beach in the Caribbean where you can swim between the iconic Pitons – those dramatic volcanic peaks that define St. Lucia's coastline.'
What's Special?
Sugar Beach occupies a former sugar plantation dating back to the 1700s, nestled on a pristine stretch of white sand beach with the UNESCO World Heritage Pitons rising dramatically from the sea on either side. The resort's signature white colonial architecture perfectly complements the volcanic black rock formations and lush rainforest backdrop.
WhatAHotel! Pro-Tip: Book a beachfront villa for unobstructed Pitons views, and time your arrival for late afternoon when the golden light creates the most spectacular photos of these iconic peaks.
