Cotton House
Located on the island of Mustique, which is only 3 by 1/2 miles, the Cotton House is situated on a picturesque hillside surrounded by the Caribbean Sea to the west and the Atlantic Ocean to the east.
Mustique is one of the most exclusive private islands in the world and the Cotton House is the island's only full-service hotel and has 17 rooms and suites, all of which are beautifully furnished and have a private patio, terrace or wrap around veranda from which to enjoy the views. 11 rooms have their own private plunge pools & the two-bedroom villa "Residence" comes with its own full swimming pool and 24 hour butler.
You will find some of the freshest Caribbean ingredients here, along with some imported delicacies from around the world. Lunches can be lingered over at the laid-back Beach Caf, whilst dinner is an informal yet genteel affair on the Veranda of thetranquiland elegantGreat Room. Breakfast is served in Veranda Restaurant or in bedrooms. Light fare & drinks are served in the new Tree Garden Lounge. If you are looking for something a little romantic, private dinners can be arranged at several locations on the resort. A picnic hamper from the Cotton Houseis a unique experience not to be missed and can be taken on any of the nine beaches around the island.
Mustiques nine white sand beaches are easily reached by golf cart " the nearest one is about thirty-metres away " with sailing, snorkelling, fishing and scuba-diving all readily available. Local skippers and boats are used offering sunset cruises, as well as day trips to nearby islands. Those preferring to remain at the hotel, however, can play tennis, chill out by the infinity-edge pool or treat themselves to the stress-reducing treatments of the spa. And, of course, nature hikes and beach strolls are amongst other favourite island activities.

Perched on stilts over the Caribbean Sea, Basil's ocean-side restaurant is a popular gathering spot!
Dont miss: A day trip by boat to the Tobago Cays. They are a national park, uninhabited and gorgeous. A couple of them look like South Pacific motus.
In the last week of January, for over a decade, the Caribbean Island of Mustique has been the destination for a charity blues festival, founded and organised by Dana and Basil Charles O.B.E. with Blues musicians from all over the world performing.
