Assouline Mustique Icon

A private sanctuary in the Caribbean, Mustique is a humble island when it comes to aesthetics and size (measuring less than three square miles). When it comes to its guests, it is anything but. First developed in the mid-twentieth century by Scottish aristocrat Colin Tennant, the island has since attracted a constellation of famous names—from Princess Margaret to rock legends like Mick Jagger and David Bowie. With a no-paparazzi policy, the stars can disappear into the unspoiled paradise. Mustique Icon immerses readers into this signature spirit of barefoot luxury. Beyond its turquoise shores and fragrant frangipani, Mustique’s magic lies in its rare balance of exclusivity and ease. Days unfold at an unhurried pace—horseback rides along the beach, watching the sunset, or picnics on Macaroni Beach.
