We stayed in a Pool Suite (

Why not FS Nevis ?
If the beach at Jumby isn't natural, it was such a good fake that I never noticed. However, the beach at FS Nevis was definitely built using dark volcanic sand after the last major hurricane. Based on my experience, there is really nothing there that is a match to the OP's request.
RC Dorado definitively ticks the modern design box and the food is edgier than at Jumby. My stay reminded me decor-wise of Rosewood Mayakoba, and in that sense it feels a little "anywhere". Jumby is a special place befitting of a special trip and you can't beat a private island, but the dining while good, isn't what is memorable about the place.
It's a great dilemma
