W Retreat & Spa, Vieques

We loved every sun-soaked minute at W’s first Caribbean foray, a whimsical space by Spanish design superstar Patricia Urquiola. Set within a series of low-slung beachfront structures, polished cement floors contrast with bright geometric patterns; many private terraces overlook two infinity pools. The hushed, spare-yet-sexy spa, with alfresco showers fringed by palm trees, completes the picture.
