Hotel Description
PETER ISLAND is the largest private island among the loose array of 60 islands, cays and exposed reefs that comprise the British Virgin Islands.
Just four miles south of Tortola, the island offers travelers 1,800 acres of uninhabited, exceptional privacy, intimacy galore, lush native vegetation, in addition to world-class snorkeling, sailing and diving. The island is surrounded by the Caribbean Sea, Sir Francis Drake Channel and the Atlantic Ocean.
Our Beach Front Junior Suites are only a few glorious steps off the white sands of Deadman’s Beach, and our Ocean View Rooms put you within a few seconds’ walk of the resort’s fabulous pool. Either way, you can’t go wrong.
And if you’re looking for island living at its finest, “Heavenly Hideaways” perfectly describes our three magnificent private villas. Each one with spectacular views of the surrounding islands, each one with private pools, each and every one beautifully furnished and perfectly appointed.
Dining – Those are the two key ingredients in every meal prepared in all Peter Island’s Caribbean restaurants (4) – From Jean Kelly’s addictive coconut-crusted French toast to fresh-to-table dinners prepared with ingredients from our chef’s organic garden to the sumptuous table laid for the island’s Wine Dinner to every bite in between.
Spa – Our 10,000-square-foot Spa at Peter Island offers all the necessities for mind, body and spirit. It includes 10 indoor treatment rooms, two outdoor bohios, couples suites, a beach-side Jacuzzi and a tranquility garden—all with spectacular views of Big Reef Bay. And as if massages, scrubs and wraps, facials, hair treatments, manicures, and pedicures weren’t enough, our Caribbean spa specializes in Ayurvedic treatments, a traditional system of Indian medicine renowned for detoxifying and rejuvenating the body.
ACTIVITIES – SAIL, SNORKEL, SCUBA, HIKE, BIKE OR TAKE YOGA CLASSES. OR DO ABSOLUTELY NOTHING AT ALL!!
You can paddleboard, kayak or take a day trip to one of the other incredible islands, reefs or attractions nearby. You can organize a dive trip through Paradise Watersports, Peter Island’s own on-island dive shop. Or you can just lie back in one of Peter Island’s trademark hammocks and stare across the turquoise water at Dead Chest Island, the rocky outcrop with a pirate history. The opportunities for adventure, escape and relaxation are absolutely endless.
BEACHES – WHICH BEACH YOU CHOOSE WILL LIKELY BE THE MOST DIFFICULT
DECISION YOU MAKE EVERY DAY!
Five pristine white sand Caribbean beaches, each one with its own unique personality, ensure that each day at the beach is a totally different day at the beach.
