Is Peter Island Resort Right for You?

Peter Island Resort provides an idyllic respite for couples seeking varied recreational options amidst the Caribbean sunshine.

The resort is very private and can only accommodate about 150 people, but guests can socialize in its bars, restaurants, and main Deadman’s Bay beach. Overall, couples will feel secluded but not stranded.

The resort is luxurious but in an understated, hide-your-wealth English way. Its atmosphere is warm and its dress code simple and sporty.

This is not the island on which to to pursue “fabulosity” and fashion competition a la St. Barth’s; no one comes to Peter Island to flaunt their Hermès beach towel or Internet fortune.

In fact, many celebrities, multi-millionaire yacht owners, and city sophisticates choose Peter Island, but they come to relax, smile, and live the barefoot life.

Hadley and Tim Johnson, newlyweds from San Francisco, were delighted with their honeymoon at Peter Island Resort. “It exceeded our expectations,” reported Tim. “Service, restaurants, our suite…everything was great,” said Hadley. “Peter Island’s sports and recreation are tops,” said Tim. “I learned how to windsurf,” added Hadley. “Highly recommended,” they both chimed.
