Ladera Resort - St. Lucia
It's December 6. 2002, 11 degrees outside with several inches of new snow on the ground.  This is not where you want to be! 

How about a small, 24 sq.mi. tropical island in the Southern Carribean where daytime temps. are 84 & at night it falls to 73.

And, suppose your room only had 3 walls, the last wall left out so you have a view of the ocean & Pitons.  Maybe put this resort 1000 ft. above sea level to maximize the view & allow the gentle trade winds to blow through.  Add the best restaurant in St. Lucia & how about a pool in your room.  This is Ladera!
