Paradise found on ultra sexy islands

No more beating around the bush. Lounging on the beach, sipping margaritas equals heaven on earth. Finding a sexy beach is a good start, but I need one where I can shed inhibitions, mingle with the locals and rediscover why less truly is more. No exceptions.

Fernando D Noronha, Brazil

You - On the World's Sexiest BeachWhen Brazilians dream of beaches, this is where their dreams take them. More than 250 miles of sculpted coastline that hide dozens of private coves so private they demand the shedding of worries, cares and, of course, clothing. Some areas are so pristine, sunscreen is even forbidden.

You won't find any major hotels here, but Pousada Maravilha is a sexy little hideaway that shelters the rich and famous jet-setters. Need something that fits a tighter budget? Pousada do Vale offers up the luxurious beauty of the island at a fraction of the cost .

Anguilla

Take your pick of 33 of the most mind-blowing beaches in the Caribbean. What you won't find - leviathan-sized cruise ships at port, tacky casinos or sky-high hotels that clutter the fantastic view. What you will find: Denzel Washington, Jennifer Anniston, Beyonce and other celebs escaping reality for seriously sexy beach-time.

Shoal Bay East is our fav beach and the Ku Hotel (right on the beach) is where you'll find your bliss when the sun goes down. It's a small hotel with only 27 rooms, and the open-air restaurant adds to the comfortable, relaxed vibe.

Caye Caulker, Belize

It's a tiny island off the coast of Belize's beautiful barrier reef coast (one of the largest in the world). The island is so small that you'll only need your feet, bikes and golf carts to get around - which sweetens the morning commute from hotel to beach. Time slows down here, way down, and spending your days drinking Belkin Beer in your swimsuit (or not!) is your top priority.

Dive into the true charm of this island and book your lodging at one of the boutique hotels on the beach. The Treetops Guesthouse offers private balconies with ocean views - and rates start at less than $100/night.

Ready to check yourself out of the doom and gloom of the recession and get back to sexy? Me too!
