La Samanna, a Belmond Hotel 

It won’t take long for you to figure out why European nations fought for nearly 150 years to control St. Martin, with two of them eventually agreeing to share it. The French and the Dutch eventually split this tropical paradise between them, and today it has a mouthwatering food scene, along with irrepressible music and vibrant architecture. St. Martin is also home to La Samanna, a Belmond Hotel.    

Here, you’ll find a wonderful blend of island glamour and a captivating cosmopolitan scene. This is a resort to see and be seen. All of the ocean-facing guest rooms are wonderful, and their cottages and villas can provide an extra level of privacy and space. 

The pioneer of Caribbean cool, La Samanna still channels all the glamour of the days when the likes of Jackie Onassis, Robert Redford, and David Bowie graced its halls. Countless other stellar guests have followed in their footsteps since the resort opened in 1974. Since the hotel joined the Belmond family, it has enjoyed many refurbishments and updates, including a full-scale redesign in 2019 that restored this iconic Caribbean landmark to new heights.  

Cap Juluca, a Belmond Hotel 

Whether you’re arriving on a private sea transfer from La Samanna or fresh off of your international flight, you’ll be instantly calmed as soon as you set foot on Anguilla, soothed by the way the enchanting Caribbean waters lightly kiss the sugar white sands. Despite Anguilla’s small size—only 35 square miles—it is home to some of the world’s most spectacular beaches. Cap Juluca is tucked away on the island’s southwest coast, facing the Caribbean Sea, and believe us: it will cast a spell on you.  

Anguilla is laidback even by island standards, and Cap Juluca marries this feel with timeless elegance, contemporary luxuries, and an edge-of-the-world escapism. It truly is a retreat for both mind and body. The resort sprawls across 179 verdant acres, where clusters of whitewashed, Greco-Moorish villas rise from the sand, their vaulted arches offering views across the ocean. Innumerable flowers provide pops of color, and brilliant birds swoop to settle on the shore. It’s nothing short of dreamy. Inside, elegant interiors are brought to life with dashes of Caribbean color and flair, bringing the allure of the ocean indoors.
