The preferred hotel of Queen Elizabeth II, JFK and Clark Gable is out of the financial reach of many, but great if money is no object. The plantation-chic villas have design features conceived by Ralph Lauren and many have private pools. Nonguests can dine at the wonderful restaurant, which hosts fixed-menu theme nights that run around US$100 a head.
