Kú, which means ‘sacred place’ in the Arawak Indian language, is close to Fountain Cave, one of the most important Indian ceremonial grounds in the Eastern Caribbean. The all-suite hotel is on Shoal Bay East, a two-mile beach of powdery white sand. Its informal chic was designed with the young and young-at-heart in mind. Modeled after the minimalist cool of Miami’s South Beach and the relaxed sophistication of St. Barts, it offers a sampling of the fun that goes with these destinations.

Widely recognized as one of the world’s best beaches, Shoal Bay East provides excellent snorkelling and diving at Kú’s doorstep by day, and is conducive to dining and dancing barefoot under the stars by night.

The hotel has 27 suites, a lively beachfront restaurant and bar, large beach front freshwater pool, delicatessen, spa, gym, dive shop and boutique.
