What To Pack For A Holiday On Mustique

You’ve probably heard of Mustique—the super-affluent's exclusive Caribbean island of choice. It's famous for its pristine palm beaches, dramatic hilltops, private villas, luxury hotels, and, ironically, for its glitz-and-glam-free vibe.

At Mustique, nobody cares if you’re a Hollywood celebrity, Prince William, or even the queen herself (spoiler alert: The Royal family frequently visits!). It's a go-to spot for the rich and famous; a dream destination that echoes laid back with a dose of chic and sophisticated.

While Mustique is known for the beautiful villas you can rent for up to $12, 857 a night (inclusive of a private chef and a small staff), it is also home to two beautiful boutique hotels: The Firefly and The Cotton House.

Ready to vacation like royalty and witness this exotic destination in all its lowkey glory? Here’s how and what to pack:

 

First things first: master the art of 'barefoot elegance'

Look comfortable but chic! For ladies, wearing a sundress or a kaftan is ideal. For men, one can never go wrong with a collared shirt and linen pants or shorts. Jackets and ties not required.
