We loved St. Lucia so much because it wasn’t a party island,” Kendra Wilkinson Baskett tells OK! of the Caribbean haven she and her husband, NFL star Hank Baskett, chose for their paradise honeymoon in June.
ROOM WITH A VIEW
The couple chose Jade Mountain, where each “sanctuary” suite has an open fourth wall, a private, iridescent glass-tiled infinity pool and amazing ocean views. “It’s so peaceful going to sleep at night,” says Kendra. (room rates from $1,150 per night; jademountainstlucia.com). If you can stand to leave your suite, the beach offers snorkeling, diving and a sunset cruise. “Hank and I did the cruise,” says Kendra. “There was a saxophone player — it was so romantic!”
