You’ll stay at the island’s iconic Cotton House, a Relais & Châteaux hideaway with just a handful of rooms and suites, offering an experience that’s as intimate as it is exceptional.
From spa rituals inspired by local botanicals to curated island picnics and reef snorkelling off secret coves, every day is crafted with intention and ease.
Whether you’re travelling for a honeymoon, an anniversary, or simply to reconnect, Mustique delivers luxury that is both rare and refreshingly understated.
And for LGBTQ+ travellers, it offers something even more valuable: an environment where you are not just accepted, but welcomed with warmth, privacy, and respect woven into every part of the experience.
Day by day
This is a sample plan, not a fixed departure. Days can be added, removed or reordered, and almost every client changes something. Prices are an entry-level guide; your quote will be exact.
Day 1: Arrival in Mustique
Touch down in your private paradise as you arrive on Mustique via scheduled island-hop from Barbados or Saint Lucia. This exclusive isle, beloved by artists and royals alike, welcomes you with peace, privacy, and ocean views that redefine the word “luxury.” A member of The Cotton House team greets you at the airstrip, allowing you to feel the island’s effortless charm from the outset.
After check-in, settle into your Ocean View Cottage or Sea Breeze Suite, where hardwood floors, plush linens, and views of the Caribbean Sea set the tone for the week ahead. Spend your first afternoon decompressing by the infinity pool or wandering through the tropical gardens. Tonight, dine on the terrace beneath starlit skies.
Days 2-3: Leisure & Discovery on Island Time
Your next two days are the perfect invitation to slow down and explore at your own rhythm. Begin each morning with breakfast under swaying palms, followed by a relaxed walk along the cotton-soft sands of Macaroni Beach – a secluded stretch known only to insiders.
Adventure and luxury are available in equal measure here: you might take a paddleboard out into calm turquoise waters, enjoy a curated island hike with a private guide, or request a luxury picnic at Lagoon Bay, complete with Champagne and fresh seafood. Back at The Cotton House, indulge in a cocktail by the pool or retreat to the spa for a locally inspired treatment.
In the evening, you’ll be treated to exceptional cuisine at the Veranda Restaurant, where Caribbean ingredients meet French techniques. The atmosphere is refined yet relaxed, just like the island itself.
Day 4: Spa Sanctuary & Island Secrets
Today is devoted to stillness and self-care. Wake to the sound of the sea, then stroll to the Cotton House Spa, where a tailored treatment awaits – perhaps a coconut oil massage or a hibiscus facial using botanicals sourced from the island. This is luxury with intention: a moment to truly reconnect with yourself or a loved one.
Later, take a private Jeep tour with one of Mustique’s knowledgeable locals. You’ll explore historical sites like Plantation House, Princess Margaret’s former residence, and the island’s gentle, undulating terrain, including hilltop vistas and hidden coves. End the day with sundowners at The View, a panoramic lookout where the only sound is the breeze and your own quiet awe.
Days 5-6: Sail the Grenadines - Private Yacht Charter
No stay in Mustique is complete without heading out to sea. Over these two days, we’ll arrange a private yacht or catamaran to whisk you between the neighbouring Grenadine islands.
You might sail to Bequia for market browsing and snorkelling with sea turtles, or journey to the Tobago Cays Marine Park, where untouched reef systems and powdery cays await. On board, your crew will prepare an indulgent lunch, including freshly grilled fish, fine wine, and the freedom to dive off the back deck into the clearest waters in the Caribbean.
Back on Mustique in the evenings, enjoy a lighter dinner and a nightcap at Basil’s Bar – the island’s legendary overwater venue known for its jazz nights.
Day 7: A Day for Reflection
Your final full day is yours to savour. Start with a morning yoga session overlooking the sea, or choose to linger over coffee on your private terrace. You might visit the Cotton House Boutique for curated fashion and local artisan wares, or book a private photography session to capture your time on the island.
For your last evening, we recommend a private beachfront dinner – a bespoke menu paired with a golden Mustique sunset.
Day 8: Departure
After a leisurely breakfast, your transfer to Mustique’s airstrip awaits. From here, you’ll connect back to Barbados or Saint Lucia for your international flight home.
