Settle in for a fabulous night’s sleep with our ultra-luxury suite offering, which push the boundaries of opulence. With everything from unbeatable panoramic views to awe-inspiring architecture, they offer something truly special.
JOALI, MALDIVES
It takes something special to stand out in the Maldives, where every other island seems to be graced with another jaw-dropping luxury resort, yet Joali manages it with aplomb.
Istanbul-based studio, Autoban, have imbued the huge, high-ceilinged villas with a distinctive aesthetic, blending island chic with high-end design. Yes, you’ll love your private infinity pool and outdoor bathroom, but in the Maldives that’s almost a given; what really stands out is the attention to detail and the sophisticated finish, using materials such as locally hand-carved wood panels and Norwegian marble in the bathrooms.
Joali is a relative newcomer, but behind the scenes is an all-star management team plucked from some of the top resorts in the Maldives. It’s no surprise to us that we’ve heard so many rave reviews, with guests praising the superb dining, thoughtful staff and stunning accommodation. Joali has also been conceived with the environment in mind; single-use plastics are banned, all bathroom products are vegan and chemical-free, and the overwater villa pools are different sizes, designed to ensure they don’t disturb the coral on the lagoon floor.

JADE MOUNTAIN, SAINT LUCIA
Jade Mountain has an almost unfair advantage over the competition, positioned in front of the most iconic view in Saint Lucia (if not the entire Caribbean). The enormous suites - referred to, without any hint of exaggeration, as Sanctuaries - are open on one side, creating a widescreen panorama of the emerald green Piton mountains.
Each Sanctuary is romantic, beautifully appointed and private; it’s not unknown for guests to spend their whole stay ensconced within their accommodation. All but the entry-level Sky Sanctuaries have their own infinity pool, and all suites have an open-plan bathroom designed to maximise those picture-postcard views.

HAMMOCK COVE, ANTIGUA
Instagram-worthy plunge pools? Check. In-room dining from a Michelin-trained chef? Check. Noisy kids running around the pool and ruining your holiday mood? Absolutely not. This stunner from Elite Island Resorts is the latest boutique opening on the sun-kissed isle of Antigua, and it’s a strictly adults-only affair. Design-conscious couples will love the artfully styled accommodation, with elegant touches like a papasan chair dangling above your terrace and your own fully-stocked wine cooler.

Hammock Cove opened in December 2019 and is already drawing plenty of admiring glances thanks to its photogenic interiors. Vaulted ceilings, locally-crafted hardwood furnishings and a muted colour palette create a look that is both contemporary and unmistakably Caribbean, with plenty of natural light flooding in.
You’ll be spoiled by the unfailingly efficient Guest Ambassadors, who are on hand to assist with restaurant bookings, in-villa dining, your morning coffee or just about anything else you can think of.
