Luxury Vacations in the Caribbean

A byword for barefoot beach escapes, the Caribbean is defined by the cerulean of palm-backed bays where waters stretch towards a sparkling horizon. And yet it’s so much more.

Cuba’s revolutionary heritage, spirit and music bewitches every traveller. Board a yacht in Bequia, the British Virgin Islands, the Bahamas or Antigua where sailing shapes local identity, or get a taste of islands – Grenada, St Lucia and Anguilla – where spices and rhythms float on the sea breeze, and artisan chocolate, rum and chef-led menus grace beachside tables. St Barths and Turks & Caicos have chic hotels, party villas and buzzing social scenes. In the emerald isles of St Lucia, Jamaica and the Dominican Republic, jungle-covered peaks are tiered with waterfalls, coffee plantations and ridge trails with forever views.
