BEAUTIFUL CARIBBEAN ISLANDS, EACH WITH A DISTINCT IDENTITY

The similarities: they are all paradise. Yet, each of these beautiful islands has been chosen for its unique traits.

Is there a part of you saying: “I want to flop on a beach” but then a little voice saying “though I want to come home feeling like I’ve immersed myself in the Caribbean culture?”

We’re here to help you understand what makes each island not only mesmerising to look at, but soul-nourishing too.

So… which island(s) will you choose?

Antigua has 365 beaches – one for every day of the year.

White, rose gold or cotton-candy pink sand. Former plantations have been thoughtfully transformed into boutique hotels, maintaining a tranquil village ambience. Perfect for families and couples

St Kitts and Nevis is a hidden Caribbean gem, with authentic charm.

For a relaxed holiday off the tourist track, find old-world West Indies charm, distinct from the modern resorts. Unique appeal lies in the experiences: such as exploring the Scenic Railway ‘Sugar Train’. Ideal for family time

Turks and Caicos is an archipelago with a luxury and allure

Crystalline turquoise waters and white sand beaches on over forty islands and cays that make up the World’s best kept secret. The choice is yours. A truly luxurious or truly authentic getaway.

 

 

We have uncovered each island’s distinct features and experiences to help you decide which is the perfect one for you….

One thing we love about these islands is the chance for a multi-stop holiday without massive transfers. Visit Antigua: hop over to Barbuda. Perhaps get there via Miami! Or even stop in New York on the way to Turks and Caicos, before you explore the lesser islands.

ANTIGUA

Antigua known for sailing – you can also swim with stingrays, spot turtles, snorkel coral reefs, and sip on a cocktail as you watch pelicans dive for fish. Shirley Heights, a restored military lookout, is set against the backdrop of the sunset over English Harbour and Nelson’s Dockyard, a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Why not hope over to Barbuda and stay at Barbuda Bell? – distinctive for unspoiled landscapes and rose-hued sand and a sanctuary for frigate birds.

Yes please!

ST KITTS AND NEVIS

In St Kitts and Nevis, explore Brimstone Fort, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and Admiral Nelson’s marriage location of Montpelier Estate.

Play golf with a view of the Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea. Hike up Mount Liamuiga. Or why not go diving and explore life below the surface?

And of course visit Nevis, separated by a two-mile wide channel. The two islands offer untouched beaches overlooked by misty mountains, volcanic peaks and charming wildlife.

TURKS AND CAICOS

Turks and Caicos is a collection of sparsely populated, low sand cays, and holds some of the planet’s most stunning coral reefs and beaches.

Indulge in world class spas, treat yourself to delectable dining in paradise or quiet and laid-back atmosphere that’s becoming all too uncommon in the Caribbean.

Either way, revel in their culture and local traditions.The lifestyle here is relaxed, the local hospitality is sincere, and the diving experience is genuinely extraordinary.

A word from Elena

The Caribbean islands have so many stories to tell….

..Antigua, former headquarters of the British Royal Navy, is now a sheltered port attracting world-class yachts.

St Kitts and Nevis served as the epicentre of the Caribbean sugar-cane industry. These twin islands have played a pivotal role in shaping our perception of the Caribbean today.

I believe it is important to respectfully understand their history, whilst exploring the beauty each island offers. And I would love to help you do so!
