As winter slowly yet surely starts its freezing descent upon the world, most of us find ourselves dreaming of warmer, sunnier places to be and luxurious images of a Caribbean villa often spring to mind. What could be better than if, instead of your daily commute, you could find yourself sipping a cocktail poolside, then retreating into your lush bungalow for hire, as the sun sets over the ocean? Nothing much, really. There is not much out there that’s better than a holiday in the Caribbean, and there are no better places to stay at than the ones featured below. Expert editors as well as regular tourists have reviewed them, rated them, and guarantee the best possible holiday experience money can buy.
Golden Pavilion in Tortola
The name of this luxury villa is no overstatement – it is indeed a golden standard of villas in the Caribbean. It stands on a sprawling four acre estate on the Island of Tortola, specifically on its northeast shore, nested by the gorgeous Little Bay Beach. The architecture style it displays is opulent Asian-Indonesian, with pagoda-like roofs, with a courtyard enclosed by walls that hosts a lily pond and an Asian statuary. The name of the villa stems from its red and gold filigree door that opens onto its two wings. It features a gourmet kitchen with an in-house chef, a family room, a media room, two king-sized master bedrooms and a pool. The master suite is indeed fit for royalty, with its Jacuzzi-equipped master bathroom and walk-in dressing room. At prices ranging from $2,000 to $3,930 per night, this villa is hands-down, without the shadow of a doubt, the best money can buy.
Tamarind House in Santa Lucia
The Tamarind House derives its name from the beautiful Tamarind tree it hosts. The shade of its branches provides a great space for socializing and enjoying warm memories in the company of friends. The house is located some five minutes away from the superb Anse Chastanet beach and its 8,850 square feet it’s one of the best luxury vacation rentals. It comprises two buildings: a main house with three bedrooms and three bathrooms, as well as cottage where the master suite sits separately. The suite has its own living room, a fully equipped kitchen, a dressing room, a marble-clad bathroom and a superb, classically elegant king size four poster bed, the home’s pièce de resistence.
Marina Haven Villa in Santa Lucia
