Concierge.com's insider take:
This 12-room resort challenges the notion of the tour package/cookie-cutter all-inclusive, not only for its small size but also for its abundance of character. Narrow stone paths shaded by grape and almond trees lead to pastel cottages with whimsical hand-carved furniture and fabrics in eye-popping colors. A member of Island Records founder Chris Blackwell's hip hotel empire (Jake's, Strawberry Hill, Geejam), the Caves occupies a spectacular setting on two cliffside acres (the closest beach is a 15-minute drive away). Stairs carved into the rock take you up to sunbathing platforms, and down into two grottoes, one of which houses a rum and cigar bar. Service here is impeccable to the point of being invisible.
