that stand sentry over the amous curve o sand,

with easy access to H onolulus glitzy shopping, diningand nightlie scene. Or go quiet on the North Shore

(pictured), where a laid-back sur culture holds sway.

Add a native touch to your nuptials with a conchblower, a lei exchange and a ukulele player to strum

you down the aisle. Your reception gets even more

sensual when you include a perormance by localhula dancers, who share the legends o Old Hawaii

o oahu, hawaiiThe hillside Jade Mountain, on the island

o Saint Lucia, is one o the Caribbeans

sexiest resorts. The 23 rooms (known as

pool sanctuaries, each with a celestial namelike Moon or Galaxy) were built without a

ourth wall, so theres nothing between you

and incredible views o the sparkling seaand towering Piton mountains. Bathrooms

are open-plan, melding into the ambience.

Showers include a rain showerhead andsix separate body sprays, but our avorite

touch is the two-person chromatherapy

Jacuzzi, whose underwater LED lights arecustomizable to your mood, rom calming

green to energizing red. From $950.
