Paradise found

For jetset glamour, eco-excursions, seaside seclusion or colonial charm, the Caribbean has something for everyone. FASHION's feature editor explores.

HOT SPOT: KAMALAME CAY, ANDROS

The Laid-back & Lovely...for chilling out and chilled chablis.

The Bahamas are a three-hour flight from many major cities, but the resort-lined beaches of the larger islands won’t appeal to isolationists. For a remote vibe without the air miles, Kamalame Cay, just 400 metres off the coast of Andros, offers turquoise water and miles of powder sand beach on a private isle equipped with an excellent spa and the world’s third-largest barrier reef. The Hew family, which settled on the island in the early ’90s, have infused it with boho charm while transforming its landscape into 96 acres of tropical flowers and greenery and scattering pretty cottages along its shore.
