What are the ultimate beach destinations in the Caribbean – the top places to visit if you just want to discover beach after beach, feel the softest sand and take in the most breathtaking ocean views? The Caribbean Journal investigated and named the best spots for beach lovers. And we’ve got villas in most of them. To plan your getaway to the perfect beach, start here.  

Turks & Caicos

Much of Turks & Caicos is completely uninhabited, which lends to the territory’s unbeatable natural beauty. The peaceful desert island paradise is surrounded by a shocking shade of blue-green sea, ideal for snorkeling and swimming. Amazing Grace, the villa shown here, offers private luxury on Grace Bay, consistently named the home of the world’s best beach. View villas in Turks & Caicos >

St. Martin

The unque island, split into two territories, boasts 37 beaches – more than enough to satisfy the biggest beach lover. St. Martin also combines the relaxing lure of beach life with the chic spots to eat and shop, as well as island nightlife. Book a stay at Tiaris at la Samanna, shown here, and enjoy the best of both Caribbean worlds right from your personal beachside overlook. View villas in St. Martin >

Anguilla

In Anguilla, it’s not just about the calm, quiet and stunning white sand of the beaches, it’s about the abundance of them. The tiny island is home to more than 30 beaches, all boasting the serious sense of escape the island is known for. Sand Villa at Long Bay, above, is three villas in one property, each its own private beach access. View villas in Anguilla >

British Virgin Islands

Our not-so-challenging challenge to you: spend a week in the British Virgin Islands’ Tortola and visit a different beach every day. The tiny island makes it easy to visit its multiple soft-sand beaches and bays, starting with the waterfront at the Falcon’s Nest at Peter Island villa, above. Or, visit the beaches of the BVI's pristine island of Virgin Gorda. View villas in Tortola or Virgin Gorda >

Barbados

Whether you wish to sleep in the sand or take on the waves, Barbados is a perfect beach destination. The famous pink sand beaches offer great variety: calm waters for swimming or snorkeling and lively coasts that are hotspots for surfing and other watersports. Our villas offer the similar variety – choose a charming seaside cottage or a sprawling estate, like the 10-bedroom Crystal Springs villa, above. View villas in Barbados >
