Celeb Spotting

If you’re going on holiday to the Caribbean or fancy staying somewhere where you’re likely to bump into a celeb then I have good news for you. Here are the 3 best Caribbean Islands for celebrity spotting…

1. St Barthelemy

Superstars to have been spotted here include Jay-Z and Beyonce, Matt Damon, Uma Thurman, Usher, Ashton Kutcher and Jason Statham. Although, many of these celebs will stay on their yachts when holidaying in St Barthelemy but who is to say you won’t see them wandering round the beach at some point? Bruce Willis and Jay-Z enjoy eating at the terrace of the Carl Gustaf Hotel which is on a hill overlooking the harbour.

 

2. Bahamas

Oprah Winfrey, Martha Stewart, Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon have been caught having a cheeky getaway to the Bahamas on several occasions. Cindy Crawford even married there right on the beach! Fancy bumping into a celeb you should visit Sip Sip where Robert de Niro and Diane von Furstenburg have lunched.

 

3. Anguilla

This island offers posh boutique hotels and the “postcard perfect” beaches we all dream of visiting. Sandra Bullock, Orlando Bloom, Kevin Bacon, Jennifer Aniston and Janet Jackson have been papped holidaying here. Celebrities looking for a bit of privacy stay in the Viceroy which is a stylish resort with a saltwater infinity pool, Orlando Bloom and model Miranda Kerr even honeymooned here!

 

But obviously most celebrities have the money to spend on extremely luxurious so if you’re still looking for somewhere you can holiday like a celebrity but not have to pay the high price you should check out Top Villas.

 

Dream Holiday Destinations

If you’re a celebrity it is more than likely that you are going to have a large sum of money you are able to spend on anything and everything you wish. So for a celebrity choosing a holiday destination really probably isn’t a problem, and so it is likely most celebrities visit the destinations in which we can only dream of visiting; and just to rub it in a little (not sure why) I have decided to come up with a list of popular destinations in which celebrities holiday.

Saint-Tropez, France. With luscious beaches and the beautiful rays of sun why would this not be a celebrity hot spot!? Saint-Tropez has been said to be the most famous resort in Europe, celebrities such as: Jay Z, Beyonce and the Beckhams have been pictured holidaying here.

Maui, Hawaii. This is one of the most popular holiday destinations for celebrities as it has so much to offer including scuba diving, golfing and so many other interesting things can be done. Celebrities including Justin Bieber, Selena Gomez, Kate Hudson and Ben Affleck have been seen holidaying in Maui.

Saint Barthelemy, Caribbean. This is a small, volcanic island located in the northwest Caribbean Sea. It is a fairly small island but attracts a lot of celebrity holiday goers, and is considered one of the most beautiful islands in the Caribbean.

Lake Como, Italy. Italy is a very beautiful destination great for kicking back and relaxing on Lake Como. The lake has been a popular vacation spot for the rich and influential for a long time and is most definitely one to add to the list of dream holiday destinations.

Mykonos. Not only do a lot of celebrities holiday here but some even have their very own houses on Mykonos and like to hang out there in months which aren’t such a popular time for tourists visiting. Greece isn’t one of the most popular destinations, even though it is very luxurious, but for celebrities getting the chance to get away from photographers and gossip this is the ideal destination to get some peace and quiet.

Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. This is a popular destination because its gorgeous and is fairly close to home, which is ideal for celebrities if they want a quick getaway. Celebrities including Jennifer Aniston, Courtney Cox and George Clooney are regular visitors of Cabo San Lucas.

Bora Bora, French Polynesia. This is one of the more expensive holiday destinations (making it the perfect candidate to go on a dream holiday destination list). So if you manage to win the lottery this is somewhere you should take the chance to visit as fi you’re not a celebrity it is much harder to come up with the funds for a holiday such as this!

Mallorca, Spain. This is such a classy place and so obviously attracts classy people and a few celebrities even have their own place there!

Malibu. This is a destination not so private, and some celebrities enjoy the fact this isn’t such a private destination. So, if you plan on visiting here (which is more likely in our price range) you could expect to bump into a celebrity as many have been photographed chilling in the beautiful beaches.

Celebrity Spotting

Bumping into a celebrity on holiday isn’t something that happens very often, but how amazing would it be to bump into your favourite celebrity whilst on holiday!? Visiting the Caribbean Islands but want to be in for a chance of bumping into a celebrity? Then these are the islands you should be thinking about booking to go to:

ST. Barts – it is located in the French West Indies with some of the best beaches, gorgeous beach front bistros and shops for all those who love a good shop in a designer boutique. Celebrities who often go include Jay-Z and Beyonce, Matt Damon, Usher, Ashton Kutcher and Jason Statham. Due to being a very luxurious resort it is likely that most celebrities and visitors will stay on their yachts or rent out a private villa. However, the top hotel to stay at is Hotel Guanahani and Spa. Jay-Z has been spotted enjoying some lovely cuisine in the Carl Gustaf Hotel, which is on a hill overlooking the harbour, the cuisine is full of caviar and the drinks menu is a list full of champagne cocktails.

Bahamas – relax on the pristine beaches and enjoy a huge range of water activities including, snorkelling among the coral reefs, deep-sea fishing and scuba diving. The Bahamas is popular with celebrities including Mariah Carey, Oprah Winfrey and Cindy Crawford. Robert de Niro and Diane von Furstenburg have been spotted lunching at Sip Sip a fun little cafe.

Puerto Rico – has a lot to offer, after spending the day on the beach you can explore the charming cobblestone streets and hit the late night casinos and salsa clubs. Johnny Depp, Jennifer Lopez, Enrique Iglesias and Morgan Freeman have been spotted holidaying in this destination. The Ritz Carlton right on the ocean is a popular hotel where Jennifer Lopez herself has stayed.

Jamaica – this is the Caribbean’s third largest island and is known for its reggae, endless supplies of run and laid back vibe, which definitely attracts a lot of celebrities. Such as: Kate Moss, Jude Law, Eddie Murphy and Gwen Stefani. A lot of these celebrities enjoy staying at the Round Hill Hotel and Villas or for a remote experience stay in a cottage hilltop hideaway. 

Good luck trying to bump into your favourite celebrity on holiday!
