The Haute Retreats difference

What a stay with Haute Retreats includes

The Caribbean has thousands of villas to rent. What we add is the choice of the right island and house, the planning before you arrive and the care while you are there.

Chosen with the people on the islands

In Turks and Caicos and Barbados, our villas are chosen with partners and property managers based on the island, who know each house, its staff and how it runs from day to day.

The Haute Standard

A 21-day pre-arrival protocol on every booking: preferences and dietary needs captured, the house team briefed, provisioning set, transfers timed to your flights, and a written run-of-stay before you leave home.

Every inclusion in writing

Staff and inclusions differ from house to house, and we set them out before you pay. At Corales 40 in Punta Cana, for example, the chef cooks three meals a day and the housekeepers come seven days a week.

A welcome in person

Every guest is greeted in person on arrival with a welcome amenity chosen for the house, and a member of the local team is on hand throughout the stay. Boats, chefs, drivers and tables are arranged by your 24/7 concierge.

Destination guide

Caribbean villa rentals: the complete guide

A villa is the way to have a Caribbean island to yourself: a beach or a view of your own, a pool, and staff who learn how your group likes the day to run. This page follows six of our Caribbean destinations, and three of them are in the top ten of our Billionaire Villa Index 2026: Turks and Caicos second, the Dominican Republic fifth and St Barts seventh.

Which island for which trip

Turks and Caicos is the island for water: the calm, shallow water of Grace Bay and Long Bay, and some of the easiest flights from the United States. St Barts is the social one, small and French, with Gustavia, St-Jean and the beaches minutes apart. Anguilla is the quiet one, with long beaches and a serious table. Barbados has the beachfront estates of the west coast and the villas of the Sandy Lane Estate, with its golf. The Dominican Republic has some of the largest estates, the golf of Punta Cana and Casa de Campo, and private resorts for one group. St Martin has the beaches of Terres Basses on its French side, and one of the most connected airports in the region.

Caribbean villas with staff

Many of our Caribbean villas come with staff, and what each includes is set out before you book. The Great House in Barbados and Villa Le Bleu in Anguilla are fully staffed; Sandy Lane – Sanzaru has a chef, a butler, a laundress and daily housekeeping; at Kishti West in Anguilla and Le Chateau des Palmiers in St Martin the chef cooks three meals a day. At Dream Estate in Turks and Caicos and ÀNI Anguilla, the stay is all-inclusive, and meals and drinks are part of it.

Villas for large groups and families

The Great House sleeps 30 in twelve suites and ÀNI Dominican Republic 28 in fourteen bedrooms. Dream Estate at Ambergris Cay, Villa Hawksbill and Sandy Lane – Sanzaru each sleep 22, and Villa Le Bleu and ÀNI Anguilla 20. For young children, Turks and Caicos has the calm, shallow water of Grace Bay and Long Bay; Dream Estate includes the island’s kids’ club, and the water inside Little Harbour at Villa Le Bleu is calm enough for the youngest swimmers.

Getting to the islands

Turks and Caicos, Barbados, Punta Cana and St Martin all have nonstop flights from the United States: about two hours from Miami to Providenciales, three to St Martin and four to Barbados. St Barts is a flight of about fifteen minutes from St Martin, and Anguilla about ten minutes by air or about 25 minutes by ferry. Your concierge arranges every connection, timed to your flights.

Minimum stays

Minimum stays are set villa by villa. In Punta Cana, Corales 40 asks for three nights for most of the year, and seven over Christmas and New Year; in Anguilla, Villa Le Bleu asks for four for most of the year, six from Thanksgiving week to mid-December and seven over Christmas and New Year. We confirm the minimum for your dates in writing.

When to go

The best time to visit the Caribbean

The islands are warm all year. Each season suits a different trip.

December to April

High season

Sunny, settled weeks across the islands, with Christmas, New Year, Presidents’ week and Easter at the peak. The weeks that book first.

May and June

Early summer

Warm days, warm evenings and fewer people on the beaches; in Turks and Caicos, little rain.

July and August

Summer holidays

The school holidays, and long days on the water. Barbados lies outside the main hurricane track.

September to November

The quiet season

The quietest months on the islands. The Atlantic hurricane season runs from June 1 to November 30, and your specialist advises on the island and the weeks.

Book 9 to 12 months ahead for Christmas, New Year and Easter, and 6 to 9 months ahead for other weeks.
