Discover more about Peter Island Resort and Spa

Peter Island Resort & Spa is an exclusive, 1800-acre private island resort located four miles south of Tortola in the British Virgin Islands. The island's history dates back to the early 1600s, when Dutchman Pieter Andriensen established a fort and settlement. Over the centuries, the island has transitioned from cotton cultivation to tobacco farming and eventually became a resort in the 1960s. Today, Peter Island offers a unique blend of natural beauty and luxurious amenities. With only 52 rooms spread across 300 acres of developed land, the resort provides a secluded and intimate Caribbean experience. Guests can relax on five stunning beaches, including the famous Deadman's Beach, known for its mile-long crescent of white sand and turquoise waters. Beyond the beaches, Peter Island offers a range of activities, including hiking trails, water sports, a spa, and a yacht club. The resort is committed to preserving the island's natural environment, utilizing a water purification plant and windmill generators to reduce its carbon footprint. After undergoing a six-year renovation, Peter Island Resort reopened in December 2024, offering an even more luxurious experience for discerning travelers.
