These 20 Caribbean Resorts Give You a Luxury Summer Vacation With a Boutique Personality

Point Grace holds one of the most coveted addresses in the Caribbean: a prime stretch of Grace Bay, the powder-soft beach routinely ranked among the world’s very best, on Providenciales in Turks and Caicos. The suites and freestanding cottages channel a breezy colonial-Caribbean elegance, with airy interiors, four-poster beds and private balconies framing that unreal turquoise water. The pace is delightfully unhurried, so picture long mornings on near-empty sand, lazy afternoons by the pool, and beachfront dinners as the light goes soft and pink.
Its boutique size keeps everything feeling refined and personal, even on an island that’s no stranger to luxury. The water is so clear and calm it almost looks fake, ideal for a summer spent swimming, floating and snorkeling. You won’t find sprawling crowds here, just that legendary beach and a whole lot of room to breathe. It’s the rare place that lives up to the hype on the postcard. Travelers chasing the Caribbean’s most iconic sand without the chaos will find their match.
