It’s that golden pocket between the bustle of winter and the heat of summer — a month where the beaches are serene, the vineyards bloom quietly, and luxury travelers can experience destinations in their most authentic, untamed state.

Whether you’re craving Caribbean stillness, European charm, or faraway island mystique, April is a canvas waiting to be painted in slow mornings, private terraces, and unforgettable evenings.

Let’s explore the best places to visit in April — and why this month is the perfect time to get there.

Caribbean Villas Still in Season

While many travelers think of the Caribbean as a winter escape, April may be its most elegant moment.

The crowds thin, the weather stays sublime, and you can soak in golden sunsets with just the sound of the ocean and a glass of something chilled.

Best Picks:

  • Anguilla – Quiet luxury at its finest, with warm winds and world-class dining.
  • St. Barts – Post-season calm with all the glamour still intact.
  • Grenada – Lush landscapes, spice-laced air, and uncrowded beaches.

If you’re seeking a place where your only neighbor is the sea, April delivers.

Europe Awakens in Style

Spring in Europe is a slow seduction.

The first blooms in Tuscany. Aperitifs at golden hour in Mallorca. Seaside calm in the Côte d’Azur before the superyachts arrive.

April is when Europe opens its doors to those who know to come early — and who want it all to themselves.

Top European Escapes:

  • Mallorca – From coastal villas to hidden mountain estates.
  • Tuscany – Wine tasting, wildflowers, and restored countryside grandeur.
  • French Riviera – Jet-set ambiance with room to breathe.

For the Soul: Wellness-Driven Destinations

Sometimes, the most luxurious thing is space — for breath, for silence, for self.

April offers ideal weather for wellness escapes in:

  • Costa Rica – Lush rainforest views, yoga decks, and surfed-out sunsets.
  • Bali – Quiet temples, mindful cuisine, and coastal sanctuaries.

Insider Tips for April Travel

Before you pack your bags and jet off, here are a few expert tips to make your April getaway seamless, luxurious, and unforgettable:

1. Book Early for Europe: While April isn’t yet peak season, top villas — especially in Tuscany and the Amalfi Coast — are often booked months in advance by in-the-know travelers. Reserve early to secure prime properties with blooming gardens and springtime views.

2. Travel Light but Layered: Spring temperatures can vary by region. Pack breathable luxury essentials like linens, but bring a light cashmere wrap or blazer for cooler evenings in Europe or air-conditioned interiors in the tropics.

3. Tap Into Shoulder Season Perks: Airfare and luxury services are often more accessible in April compared to summer. Take advantage of this “shoulder season” to upgrade to business class or enjoy longer villa stays at a more favorable rate.

4. Leverage Concierge Access: Whether you’re arriving by private jet, yacht, or commercial flight, let Haute Retreats’ concierge team coordinate every step — from in-villa spa treatments to private chefs who can craft an alfresco Easter brunch.

5. Extend Your Stay: April often inspires travelers to stay longer than planned — consider booking a flexible departure or exploring a multi-destination itinerary. Combine the Caribbean with Italy, or pair a wellness week in Bali with a cultural stop in Kyoto.

April is when the world quietly blossoms. And with the right villa and vision, it’s yours to experience in full bloom.

What place has the best weather in April?

April is one of the most rewarding months for luxury travel because it offers perfect weather in several coveted destinations — without the peak-season crowds.

Here’s where the skies shine brightest:

  • Anguilla & St. Barts (Caribbean):
    🌞 Dry, warm, and breezy — April marks the tail end of the high season, offering crystal-clear waters and 80°F (27°C) days with low humidity.
  • Mallorca & Amalfi Coast (Mediterranean):
    🌤️ Expect 65–70°F (18–21°C), sunshine-drenched terraces, and blooming hillsides — ideal for coastal walks, alfresco lunches, and early-season peace.
  • Bali & Costa Rica (Tropical):
    🌿 Bali is entering its dry season, and Costa Rica’s Pacific coast is perfect for yoga retreats and eco-luxury escapes — around 85°F (29°C) with lush greenery and golden hours.

✨ Insider Tip: If “perfect weather” to you means sun + seclusion + serenity, then Anguilla in April is hard to beat — it’s dry, temperate, and made for private beachfront living.

Where is the best place to be in April?

The best place to be in April depends on what kind of luxury experience you crave — but one thing is certain: April is a jetsetter’s dream.

Here are the top contenders:

  • Anguilla & St. Barts – For warm Caribbean waters, beachfront villas, and a crowd-free slice of paradise before hurricane season begins.
  • Amalfi Coast & Tuscany – Europe begins to bloom with sunshine, spring festivals, and scenic drives along uncrowded coastlines.
  • Bali & Costa Rica – Ideal for wellness and nature lovers, with perfect weather, lush backdrops, and serene luxury resorts.

Why April?
It’s a “shoulder season” sweet spot — when destinations are quieter, more exclusive, and often more affordable, yet the weather is at its peak in many parts of the world.

For travelers who value privacy, beauty, and personalized service, the best place to be in April is wherever you can wake up to sunshine, dine under the stars, and not see another soul unless you choose to.

Let Haute Retreats help you find that place. ✨
