Bar-who? Yes, Barbuda. Not to be confused with the jam-packed beaches and tourism laden Bermuda, Antigua's sister island is home to unspoiled Caribbean beauty. With a small population and almost no development, Barbuda is the perfect place to get away from it all.

Facing the Caribbean Sea, there's no need to request an ocean front room as each of the resort's suites opens to private east and west views.

Prepare to indulge in fresh, innovative cuisine prepared by legendary master chef, Lennox Cadogan. Internationally trained, he creates an enticing array of unforgettable selections, including lobster that is to die for. In case you actually need a break from relaxing and want to work off some of the good eats, the staff at Lighthouse can arrange sailing, fishing, snorkeling and horseback riding excursions.
