Kate Middleton and Prince William have been spotted on a rare date night, enjoying some quality couple time while holidaying in the Caribbean.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, who are parents to little ones George, 5, Charlotte,3, and Louis, 3 months, were seen relaxing together during a family vacay in Mustique last week.

Fellow holidayers spotted the two 36-year-olds enjoying some time alone at a party hosted at the island's famous Basil's Bar, according to reports from HELLO!

The soirée, which was also attended by Mick Jagger and his daughter Jade, was themed ‘A Splash of Gold.’

Insiders revealed Will and Kate attended "on the early side" of the party and seemed to be having a swell time.

"They were there for the cocktails segment and kept it rather classy," one source told HELLO!

The royals reportedly looked ‘island chic’ with Prince Will sporting a Pinkhouse Mustique shirt in support of the local brand. However, there was no word on whether William’s now infamous ‘daggy dad’ dance moves made another appearance.

Kate’s parents Carole and Michael Middleton are thought to have been holidaying with the family and minding the three little royals while their parents enjoyed a night ‘off-duty’.

Basil’s Bar is well known for hosting royal guests and celebrities keen to relax away from the eye of the paparazzi. The legendary proprietor of the bar, Basil Charles, is good friends with Kate and Will - so much so that he set up a pop-up bar in The Goring hotel, London as part of the royal couple’s nuptials in 2011.

While the Duke and Duchess have been soaking up some rays on their first family holiday since the birth of Prince Louis in April, their trip may be cut short.

Kate and William are expected to join newlyweds Prince Harry and Meghan Markle at a wedding in the UK countryside on the weekend.

It's rare to see the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge soaking up each other's company and indulging in a little PDA, but when they do it's a rare treat for royal fans.
