Laluna

As you laze on the open-air deck at LaLuna, with sun-warmed skin and margarita-warmed heart, you might suddenly feel like a swim in those tropical, Caribbean waters. You won't have far to go; that bathtub-warm sea literally laps at the edge of the lounge, tempting with its blue crystal-clearness.

Everything at LaLuna is wide open, to the air and to the sea. And with a setting like this, why wouldn't it be? The cove is secluded and achingly beautiful, tucked away in a quiet corner of this tropical island. Each of the 16 guest cottages is designed so you see that breathtaking view from the minute you wake and take a sunrise dip in your private plunge pool, until the generous king-size bed pulls you into slumber.

Though your nights are likely to be filled with romance, or laughter and fun at the outdoor bar, your days are an open book. Take a scuba adventure into the blue, ride the island winds in a Hobie Cat, or enjoy a jasmine-scented massage on the beachfront yoga pavilion.
