Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are spending the Christmas holidays in the Caribbean.

The couple, their six children - Maddox, 11, Pax, nine, Zahara, seven, Shiloh, six, and four-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne - and Brad's mother Jane are staying at the home of fashion designer Donna Karan on the idyllic island of Turks and Caicos in the exclusive Parrot Cay area.

The luxury home comes complete with an infinity pool lined with black volcanic stone and features 360-degree views of the tropical paradise, an open-air film screening room and a private spa.

A source told the New York Post newspaper: ''They are at Donna's house, without Donna, and have been loving the island because it is so secluded. Angelina's taken the kids to Karan's yoga spa. They've been running around the island without a care in the world and relaxing.''

The engaged couple have also allegedly been joined on the trip by a team of nannies to help them care for the kids as they try and enjoy some down time.

Architectural Digest editor-at-large Jeffrey Slonim posted on his blog on Christmas Day (25.12.12): ''At lunch on a small island three away from Parrot Cay. A woman said she'd heard from a local that [Pitt and Jolie] were in town with two nannies per child. Count 'em, 12 nannies! (sic)''

Brad and Angelina and their brood are not the only stars relaxing on the island.

Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards - who completed the band's 50th anniversary shows just a few weeks ago - is enjoying a winter vacation with his family, while 'Star Trek Into Darkness' director J.J. Abrams is enjoying a break with his loved ones.
