Is this your dream? - Here Is Your Tour
Program |
|
|
There is no better antidote to our over-stressed lives, than a serene
Caribbean getaway where guests can experience a complete 'disconnect,'
in natural surroundings and low-key luxury. Rosewood's Caneel Bay, an
exclusive resort nestled within the 5,000-acre Virgin Islands National
Park on the island of St. John, remains faithful to this vision of
founder Laurance Rockefeller and to his reverence for the environment.
Seven secluded beaches border an expansive paradise of 170 lush acres.
In this pristine setting, comfortably elegant resort accommodations
showcase beautiful vistas of ocean or gardens, yet the structures --
artfully built in the landscape -- are barely in view. Caneel remains
purposefully absent of modern glitz as well as digital and electronic
distractions -- it's a place where a wake-up knock replaces a wake-up
call and the furious pace of the world at home becomes a remote memory. |
