Discover more about Cooper Island Beach Club

Nestled on the sandy shores of Manchioneel Bay, Cooper Island Beach Club provides an authentic, barefoot Caribbean experience. This small, eco-friendly resort is a haven for those seeking tranquility and a connection with nature. With its stylish beachfront cottages and focus on sustainable practices, the Beach Club offers a unique blend of comfort and environmental responsibility. The island's history is intertwined with the sea, having been inhabited by the Arawak and Carib peoples before being explored by the Dutch, Spanish, and British. In the 18th and 19th centuries, Cooper Island was a hub for the sugar trade. Today, remnants of its colonial past, like plantation ruins, can still be found. The island may have been named after a Dutch family called 'Koop' or after the barrel-makers ('coopers') who used the local white cedar wood. Cooper Island Beach Club boasts a restaurant serving a varied international menu with seafood, steaks, and Caribbean rotis. The Rum Bar features the largest collection of rums in the British Virgin Islands, while the on-site microbrewery produces unique, solar-powered craft beers. The calm, clear waters of Manchioneel Bay are ideal for swimming, snorkeling, and paddleboarding. Nearby Cistern Point offers excellent snorkeling and turtle watching opportunities. The resort generates most of its power from solar panels and uses a custom-built system to convert waste water into water suitable for irrigation.
