Taking up but a small part of the island’s northern shore, a paradise of tropical vegetation, sandy beaches (five in total) and secluded bays surrounds this boutique gem. With crystal-clear waters just a toe-dip away from most rooms along Deadman’s Bay beach, it makes sense that the peaceful surroundings are mirrored in the interiors – all bright and breezy in shades of blue and green. The famous private villas, Falcon’s Nest and Hawk’s Nest, are the only keys perched on the hill tops; blessed with panoramic views of the island’s blanket of lush greenery down to the beaches below.  

Dining here is a leisurely affair, with classic American steaks with a hint of Caribbean flair at Drake’s and informal meals at the Drunken Pelican – the bar and grill that sits at the newly added Yacht Club. Sitting in Sprat Bay harbour, the club and its marina are a fun change from the main resort, but it’s making time special for privacy-seeking pairs that Peter Island Resort really excels at. Think secluded picnic lunches on honeymoon beach and romantic hikes or drives to the colourful chairs at the island’s highest point – Sunset Loop.
