Believe it or not, there are still undiscovered Caribbean islands—and none more so than Nevis, the 36-square-mile oasis 200 miles east of Puerto Rico.

Owned by New York artists Helen and Brice Marden, the 11-room lodge was created from the remnants of a 19th-century sugarcane plantation.

Rum drinks are, naturally, the special.
