Mustique

Mustique is a private island in the Caribbean, part of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. Just 2.2 square miles in size, it is famed for its exclusivity, tranquility, and luxurious villas. Originally bought by Lord Glenconner in 1958, Mustique became internationally famous after Princess Margaret built her retreat, Les Jolies Eaux, here. Today, the island is managed by The Mustique Company, home to about 120 private villas, two small hotels, and a community of locals and seasonal residents.

With no commercial tourism, Mustique offers a low-key, paparazzi-free escape for celebrities, royalty, and discerning travelers. Its unspoiled beaches, scenic trails, and coral reefs create a natural paradise, complemented by social venues like Basil’s Bar and The Cotton House. Activities include horseback riding, sailing, scuba diving, tennis, and wellness retreats.

Access is by private charter flights or scheduled puddle-jumpers from Barbados or St. Lucia. No jets or cruise ships are allowed, maintaining Mustique’s serene and secluded vibe. Whether you stay in a staffed villa or simply explore by golf cart (“mule”), Mustique offers understated Caribbean luxury, natural beauty, and an atmosphere of timeless elegance.
