Reviews"As if you needed a reason to take an island vacation, Caribbean Hideaways: Discovering Enchanting Rooms and Private Villas comes out this month. The book takes you onto ocean-view terraces and into canopy beds at 30 little-known destinations. Most people can't keep a secret, so you better hurry." ~ Hemispheres "The accommodations live up to their 'hideaway' status as refuges with seclusion and serenity." ~ Chicago Tribune "No cruise ships here, no mass tourism...just serenity, magic and enchantment. BRAVO." ~Global Writes "Seasoned travel journalist and luxury hotel expert Meg Nolan Van Reesema sussed out the Caribbean's most exotic and exclusive escapes for her entrancing new book Caribbean Hideaways: Discovering Enchanting Rooms and Private Villas from Rizzoli. The thirty gorgeous destinations from fifteen islands featured in the book were chosen for their unique views, elegant décor--no examles here of the tacky tropical style we like to call 'Caribbean Awful'--and unique ambience. Over 200 vibrant photographs by Jessica Antola bring the desirable destinations to life, while practical information about the best suites, what to expect during your stay, and the local surroundings is also included." ~ Luxist, "As if you needed a reason to take an island vacation, Caribbean Hideaways: Discovering Enchanting Rooms and Private Villas comes out this month.
