The summer private getaway cost an estimated $90,000.

The villa they stayed at — Antilles — is the newest on the island and has five bedrooms, an open dining pavilion, infinity pool, jacuzzi and a spectacular ocean view.

The household staff at Antilles that served the Royals were a butler, chef, housekeeper and gardener.

Some of the food on offer at Antilles is spicy pumpkin soup, lobster escargot, filet of beef with truffle mash and red wine jus, slow-cooked baby back ribs and prawn ceviche.

Their eldest son, Prince George of Cambridge, celebrated his sixth birthday (July 22) while on the family trip. Sister Charlotte (four) and brother Louis (one) joined in on the festivities.

Notably absent from the summer retreat were Prince Harry, Meghan Markle and their newborn son, Archie.

The Royals and the Middleton family have long made Mustique a family getaway destination. The island has its own police force to protect its rich and famous visitors.

In the past Kate and William have enjoyed playing tennis, snorkeling and scuba diving.
