For years movie stars, models and music moguls have retreated to Turks & Caicos for its unspoiled beaches, coral reefs and laid-back attitude. One resort, in particular, has become so popular with A-list guests that visitors must sometimes sign an NDA (non-disclosure agreement) upon arrival to ensure those juicy celebrity vacation secrets are kept under wraps.

A 90-minute flight from Miami, Turks and Caicos is a beach-lover’s dream with pearly sands spread across 40 islands (only eight of which are inhabited). Celebrities like the Kardashians, Brad Pitt, Rihanna, Cara Delevingne, Olivia Munn and Drake have all vacationed here recently. Prince used to own a home on the island and designer Donna Karan owns a family retreat in the exclusive Parrot Cay resort.

Providenciales (“Provo”) is the most developed island and is where you’ll find the newest collection of state-of-the-art hideaways from Beach Enclave, a boutique beachfront resort spread across a sleepy stretch of sand in Long Bay. Most of their beachfront villas have already been snapped up by a “long list of A-listers”(whose identities are kept secret) but a second phase of development is on the way. The interior is simply dressed with neutral décor and stacks of eco-features. Bathed in sunlight, the open-floor plan, two-storey villas feature their own private infinity pool, tropical gardens and a secluded slice of beach.

High-profile guests are guaranteed privacy and a range of perks. Each stay is supported by dedicated staff who will take care of all sorts of routine things. You don’t feel like cooking? Your private chef will take care of meals plans. You’re desperate to offset the pastry and mimosa breakfasts with some exercise? Your butler, who acts as a concierge, will find you a personal trainer in a jiffy. You can even contact staff to ensure that the fridge is stocked with your favourite ingredients ahead of your arrival.

Beach Enclave has two locations; one in the North Shore where rates start at $3700 (£2795) for a four-bedroom ocean view villa with a minimum three-night stay. Rates at Beach Enclave’s Long Bay start at $5400 (£4080) for a four-bedroom beachfront villa and media room.
