Cotton House Beach Vacation

The only hotel on the exotic island of Mustique, the cotton house offers luxurious service, privacy, and plenty of secluded beaches. You can spend your days exploring the marine life, relaxing by the pool, or getting pampered by the enticing spa.

The spa at the Cotton House offers an amazing array of services, such as massages, facials, reflexology, wraps, and fully body treatments. You can catch a spa in one of the four treatment rooms, just steps from the beach, or even in the privacy of your own room.

Situated between the Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean, the 1,400 acre Mustique Island offers a tennis club, nine secluded and beautiful beaches, which are perfect for scuba diving, windsurfing, and even snorkeling.

Rooms and suites
The Cotton House offers just 19 luxurious guest rooms, cottages, and suites, most offering private patios and panoramic views of the ocean. The amentities offered by the Cotton House include soft French cotton linens, a pillow menu, air, flat screen televisions, and maid service twice a day.

If you are planning a honeymoon twist to your beach vacation, you can splurge on one of the cottages with a private plunge pool, or even book the two bedroom Cotton Hill Residence which offers a  private swimming pool and its own staff that are dedicated to you.

Eating
From dining in your cottage, ordering a picnic basket and going to an empty beach, or just having a romantic candlelit dinner, Mustique leaves the choices up to you. A traditional afternoon tea is served each day in the Great Room, while there are weekly cocktail parties held by the Cotton House as well.

Getting there
There are three ways that you can fly to Mustique. You can go via Barbados, via Martinique, or via Saint Vincent. From Barbados, you can take a Grenadines Airways flight to Mustique for around $400 per person - round trip flight.
