From Jamaica to Turks and Caicos, The 11 Best Villa Resorts
Your own space, your own pool, your own vacation. If you’ve been following the Caribbean travel industry over the last few years, you know that no sector has seen faster, bigger growth than that of luxury villas.
It’s just what many travelers want right now, no doubt heavily impacted by the way the pandemic shifted travelers’ tastes and desires.
And while luxury villas themselves have never been hotter, another category has seen sizzling growth, too: the villa “resort.”

We’ve curated our favorite “villa resorts” in the Caribbean right now, from classic residential resorts to upstart hotels that are helping to reinvent the way people travel in the Caribbean.
