Two St. Lucia properties, Jade Mountain Resort and its sister property Anse Chastanet Resort, have officially opened the HelpAWS Puppy Cafe, benefiting the Help Animal Welfare in St. Lucia and introducing a humane-tourism experience on their shared 600-acre estate overlooking the Unesco-listed Piton mountains.

The new oceanfront establishment allows resort guests to dine alongside adoptable rescue puppies while directly supporting island animal welfare initiatives. The cafe's breakfast and lunch menu highlights include signature items like Charlene's "puppicino" honey latte and freshly made sandwiches, wraps and smoothies.

All proceeds from cafe sales and scheduled visitation sessions directly fund medical care, spay and neuter programs and shelter operations managed by HelpAWS throughout St. Lucia. The launch reinforces a growing trend among luxury Caribbean properties integrating community outreach and animal rescue operations into guest amenities.

Located on the southwest coast of Soufriere, the HelpAWS Puppy Cafe is now open daily to guests staying at both Jade Mountain and Anse Chastanet as well as visitors to Anse Mamin Beach.
