Dès que vous montez à bord du bateau de transfert privé à un quai situé à seulement 10 minutes de route de l'aéroport international VC Bird, vous savez que l'on s'occupera bien de vous. L'île de Jumpy Bay est un complexe privé de 300 acres qui fait désormais partie de la collection Oetker. Vous pouvez choisir de séjourner dans l'une des suites luxueuses de l'hôtel ou dans une villa extravagante pouvant accueillir toute la famille. Des bicyclettes et des voiturettes de golf vous aideront à naviguer sur cette île sans voiture et vous pourrez découvrir le moulin à sucre ou la ferme de l'île. Des chaises longues s'étendent le long de la plage principale, avec un service de plage complet, et la restauration est superbe, que vous optiez pour un dîner privé aux chandelles sur la plage ou pour un barbecue caribéen convivial à la ferme. Faites une partie de tennis avec le pro de l'hôtel, partez en paddle board sur la mer calme, détendez-vous au spa ou rajeunissez-vous en faisant du yoga tôt le matin. Amenez vos enfants et ils seront bien encadrés dans le club pour enfants et pourront participer à la conservation des tortues Hawksbill résidentes.

As well as a hotel of jaw-dropping luxury (refurbished at a cost of $28million), it's a co-op villa community for millionaires and a nature reserve, home to the white egret, blue pelican and the endangered hawksbill turtle. Celebrity villa owners, such as Lord Sainsbury and author Ken Follett, and short-term visitors including Sir Paul McCartney (there, incognito, at Christmas) are no less carefully nurtured. My courtyard suite is a house of marble-floored grandeur, with a front and rear courtyard (the latter with open-air bathtub) and a four-poster bed swathed in mosquito nets. I don't know what Jumby Bay was like before its refurbishment, but if you want high-end luxury of the kind that would be ideal for honeymooners, this is it.

For somewhere so new, the look is resolutely old-school, ostensibly 'British colonial' with terracotta (or roseate stone) floors, loud colours and prints. But every room is impressively kitted out, right down to the provision of Nespresso machines, Bose sound systems and bicycles (each villa has its own golf cart). There's a substantial spa and an excellent kids' club (the whole place is supremely child-friendly), and as a big, slick, luxurious, happy holiday resort, it's hard to fault. Only its proximity to the main flight path is a disincentive.

"Totally over the top yet tastefully so—it's like living in a dream." Named for the local patois word for a playful spirit, this former sugar plantation on a private island has room palettes of pale cream and café au lait, with bright coral and jewel tone accents. In the Pool Grille, which has a casual atmosphere and views of the Caribbean and the pool, guests recline on loungers in canopied areas. "It's a wonderful resort that gives you a first-class stay." The kids' club, Rose Buds, runs an endangered hawksbill turtle adoption program.

The point is, Jumby Bay is as exclusive and luxurious as the Caribbean gets – a 300-acre pure paradise reached only by private ferry; an island owned by its 56 villa owners, where no cars are allowed so transportation is by bike, golf cart or a slow amble along the white sand. Yet, its palatial villas aside (the most expensive sold for US$28m), obsequious and flash it’s not.

The hotel and handful of private villas - are set on their own 300-acre island a couple of miles off the north coast of Antigua. The sea barrier and the space (some people use bicycles to get around) give it a very different, leisurely feel from Antigua. It has a lovely, west-facing beach which is effectively completely private.
