The Duke and
Duchess of Cambridge have jetted off to the
Caribbean island of
Mustique to soak up some winter sun.
Wills, Kate and her mini baby bump will be relaxing in an exclusive £19,000-a-week villa, according to
The Sun.
Kate, who was hospitalised with acute morning sickness at the beginning of the year, will surely enjoy the infinity pool, games room, four-poster day beds and far-reaching views of the Caribbean sea.
A source told the
Daily Mail: "Their villa is the height of luxury and the perfect place to relax before the endless round of feeds and nappies begins."
The pair are joined on the island by the Duchess' mum and dad, Carole and Michael, who have rented a pad nearby to give the parents-to-be some space.
The royal couple have enjoyed more than six holidays together on the island, which was one of Princess Margaret's favourite places. In fact, she purchased 10 acres of land there in the 1960s.

Back in 2006, Wills and
Kate were pictured enjoying a boat trip around the island (pictured above), and
Kate has also
visited many times with just her family.
Last year, it was even reported that
Kate's parents are planning to buy a holiday mansion on the island. And why not? It boasts a balmy year-round temperature of 75C to 80C and its 1,400 acres are home to some of the most beautiful beaches in the world. Plus, Mick Jagger owns a villa there. What more do you need?
