Royal Babymoon

As we saw in my post about the Royal Honeymoon, Kate and William know how to pick gorgeous locations for their private getaways. Just a few weeks ago they selected another luxe locale: the private island of Mustique which is part of St. Vincent and the Grenadines in the West Indies. With a jam-packed schedule, a challenging first trimester and only five months until the royal bundle makes his or her appearance, I assume the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were very much need of a quiet retreat, as many other celebs are when taking their babymoons.

Here are some snapshots of Kate and William's latest accommodations at the five-bedroom, Balinese-style villa 'Serenissima' located on a beautiful hillside...

Serene living areas are surrounded by a lily pond

One of the five bedrooms~ Each has it's own private veranda

Bathrooms feature double vanities, bidets and walk-in showers

One of the dining areas that overlooks the on-site tropical garden

Serenissima is a 5-minute walk from Macaroni Beach

Here's a partial view of the 64-foot pool!

A glimpse of the secluded gazebo and sun-deck 

with additional stunning views of the ocean

Wondering why there are no pictures of the kitchen? It's because the villa comes with a household staff of six (including a private chef) who collect all shopping, food and beverage orders prior to your arrival on the island.

Kate's parents graciously picked up the tab for their daughter's February stay at Serenissima, for just $25,000. Wonder what they're going to give as a baby gift!!
