W Retreat & Spa: Vieques Island
opening in November will not only be the first W Retreat & Spa
in the Caribbean, it will also be the site of world famous chef
Alain Ducasse's first outpost in the region. Located eight
miles off the Southeast coast of Puerto Rico on the peaceful and
untouched island of Vieques, W Vieques will offer a mix of serenity
and natural beauty on a 55-square-mile islet. Ducasse, one of the
world's most decorated chefs and the only one to own and
operate three signature restaurants each honored with three
Michelin stars, has dubbed the Vieques enterprise "miX on the
beach."
At the eatery (above) Ducasse will offer a sophisticated menu,
exploring colorful Latino Caribbean flavors with an artful French
twist and refreshing dishes that highlight only the finest
ingredients from land and sea, expertly prepared and creatively
presented. miX on the beach will include both indoor and outdoor
dining with impressive ocean views to ensure an unforgettable
epicurean experience. Ducasse's team will also manage the
entire food and beverage program for the resort, which includes W
Café, Living Room bar, WET bar and terraces, W Welcome Lounge at
Vieques airport, in-room dining and all banquet/wedding events.
