Islands with a beat! Alluring, lazy, sung about… and havens for almost every celebrity you can
think of. Scattered among turquoise seas and coral reefs, all the countries have a colonial heritage:
British, Danish, Dutch, French, Portuguese, Spanish or Swedish. No wonder each one feels
different, spiced by libidinous salsa and reggae, Créole cuisine and French couture, from beguiling
Jamaica to the pristine beaches of Turks & Caicos. Cuba, with least exposure to ‘coca cola
culture’, is proud of its history and bursts with rhythm and vitality. Mustique is a jet-set island,
but you are not going to see them. Like you, they are hidden away in a villa with divine pool and
24-hour butler…
