Barbuda The castaway fantasy is alive and well in Barbuda, the beachy sister island of Antigua that is in the midst of a rebirth. While Barbuda has certainly changed since the storms of 2017, the immense, striking white and pink sand beaches have not — and these sprawling, almost-always-empty beaches will instantly captivate you. The best place to stay? It’s the Barbuda Belle, the eco-chic bungalow-style hotel set on the far northwestern coast of the island.
