Day 2
We post our room service order (fill out order form, place in bag, hang bag outside door and press wall-mounted room service button), then devour our breakfast moments after it arrives shortly thereafter. Farm fresh eggs, hand picked fruit, fresh-squeezed orange juice – delicious, and only made better by the early sunlight against the Pitons.
Hit the beach, snorkel (complimentary gear for all Jade guests) and see dozens of needlefish, trumpet fish and barracuda. Have lunch at Beach Grill located, and enjoy a Piton beer and a Pina Coloda as the pinch-me fest continues.
Returning to our sanctuary requires a modest uphill walk. It gives way to what becomes our most treasured moment of the trip: Entering our sanctuary, closing its door and – without missing a stride – shedding clothes and marching straight into the infinity pool.
Go to Anse Chastenet’s Treehouse restaurant for dinner, located just below Jade Mountain, nestled in the treetops over the beach. Again, the fish is outstanding, though that’s become expected. It’s the locally grown peppers and tomatoes whose flavors continue to surprise.
