Mustique is Paradise. I spent time at the Cotton House Hotel and it was wonderful. Firefly and Basil's, walks on the beach, horse-riding, tennis, star gazing... it really was bliss. It won't be your thing if you like loads of parties etc. It is tiny and tranquil. The only thing I didn't like was where most of the locals live - really terrible conditions and tucked away.

I lived and worked on the island for 6 years (almost 20 years ago). At times it was stressful but overall loved the Vincy spirit and quit lifestyle. I loved to hike the south-east part of the island which didn't have much development - and the bat cave!

I really enjoyed this. Especially the lack of narration. Everyone can form their own opinions.

Stayed a few times in les jolies eaux- fab house!

My Dad and step mum got married out there, it was fantastic (I was his best man).

I love the Island and can't wait to get back! If your thinking of a chilled out break -

It does'nt get better than this, If you go soak it up - enjoy and have a rum punch in Basil's bar for me, Cheers

Appears to be another Port Douglas on a lesser scale. I suppose the celebs like it as it is so secluded, but for a family holiday? forget it...

The light planes are a bit of a risk as well.

I know all these people, been to all these houses..I remember flying in these planes, Aero commanders they call them, it use to be like flying in a fuckin HEARSE LOL! beautiful island but managed by the most fucked up most prejudiced company. Maybe things has changed since then for the better now with people like Steven Joachim running the show.

@Immaculite the staff houses have gotten better, but i agree, i've been living here for 8 years and its fucking horrible

I have never been to the SVG but while I was watching this video I began to think about travel plans. Anyone else do the same?

Cheers!
