A luxurious resort in a private-island setting that balances seclusion with vibrant social spaces.
Pristine white-sand beaches skirt the coast of Peter Island, where you’ll find just one namesake resort. Aside from its collection of fresh-faced rooms, villas, and facilities, much of the undulating L-shaped island is blanketed in trees, interrupted only by hiking trails. You can stay along the palm-fringed curve of Deadman’s Beach or in your own hilltop villa estate, enveloped by the foliage.
The island offers a combination of spaces to unwind with few others around, like sheltered Honeymoon Beach, and social hubs, such as the marina, where the more vivacious side of island life is tuned up. A short distance from Tortola’s international airport and the Little Sisters islands, Peter Island Resort works well as part of a wider island-hopping journey.
Peter Island melds private-island exclusivity with all the bells and whistles of a well-connected resort. You don’t need to leave its cocoon to snorkel among manta rays, enjoy a lively yacht-club evening, or join a game of pickleball.

Rooms
With postcard-worthy views, the vast majority of Peter Island’s contemporary rooms, suites, and villas are just steps from the beach. No matter which you go for, you’ll have a private outdoor space to unwind in, plus the option of a hot tub. Beachside villas sleep up to four, and come with full kitchens and dining spaces, but for even more space and seclusion, you could stay in Hawk’s Nest or Falcon’s Nest, which sleep up to eight and 12, respectively. Falcon’s Nest, in particular, feels like a mini estate, perched on a hilltop with a private infinity pool, whirlpool, spa room, and fitness studio.
Location
Quiet seclusion is one of Peter Island Resort’s biggest calling cards — it’s the largest private island in the territory. Located around a 30-minute ferry ride from Road Town on Tortola, the island is within easy access of local airports, while offering a bubble of peace.

Environmental and social responsibility
Peter Island remains largely undeveloped — an intentional (and accoladed) decision aimed at preserving as much of its natural state as possible. There are also windmills to generate renewable energy and a reverse-osmosis water purification plant to reduce reliance on imported water.
