9/10Overall

Total, uninterrupted immersion in turquoise water, white sand, and the kind of privacy that makes the rest of the world feel very far away. The ultimate overwater villa honeymoon with world-class snorkelling from your deck.

St Lucia

Saint Lucia · Caribbean

9/10Overall

The romance capital of the Caribbean. Volcanic Piton peaks rising from the sea, adults-only resorts, jungle waterfalls, and drive-in volcano experiences. Jade Mountain's open-wall sanctuaries are the single most iconic honeymoon hotel in the Caribbean.
