Peter Island Resort- the Only Thing on the Island!

Peter Island Resort- the Only Thing on the Island!

Ferry-We boarded the ferry in St. Thomas. The boat had an airconditioned cabin and probably held about 24 or so people. We met 3 couples on the boat and we all were honeymooners. Actually, it seems that about 90% of the guests were honeymooners when we were there. We chose to ride on top of the boat in the open air—the water was pretty rough in the channel and we all got soaked. After about an hour we arrived in Tortola for customs and it was much quicker than I expected.

The island—It was bigger than I thought it would be. About 5 miles I believe. Most of the resort sits on a small portion of the island. There is the resort, three or four villas for rent, dive shop, spa, and that’s about it. The grounds are just gorgeous and very well maintained.

The Rooms—There are only about 50 rooms at the resort, plus the villas. We stayed in a beachfront suite on the 2nd floor. It had vaulted ceilings which just made it feel bigger (even though the room was quite large). The bed was large and comfortable—though it could have had nicer sheets—they were fine, typical hotel sheets, but for the price we paid, I thought they’d be a little nicer. There was a desk, sofa, two chairs, plenty of drawer and closet space, coffee maker, small fridge (stocked with free sodas, beer, and water) They gave us an island cd and each a pair of flip flops (Which I wore for the remainder of the trip—I had left mine at home and they were very comfortable). There was a large covered balcony with 2 chairs and table, and two comfortable lounge chairs. We had a great view of the beach just steps away. The best part of the room was the bathroom—double sinks with drawer space, 2 person Jacuzzi, large shower with 2 shower heads. You could even look out onto the ocean from the Jacuzzi. I think one of my favorite things about Peter Island was our bathroom! There are also Oceanview rooms which are closer to the lobby and main restaurant. I heard that they are nice, but just have a standard bathroom, and are a 5 minute walk to the beach.
