Guana Island
With access to the island strictly for guests only, and 99% of the land sheer wilderness, Guana Island is one of the most natural of all the British Virgin Islands' resorts. Set amidst 850 acres of lush tropical terrain, the hotel boasts seven pristine, white-sand beaches, 12 miles of hiking trails, a three-acre organic orchard, and even its own flock of flamingos.
Since its opening in 1934, Guana Island has evolved to offer an exquisite selection of accommodations. Guests can choose from sea-view cottages nestled within lush tropical gardens, or opt for luxury villas that feature private pools and breathtaking panoramas of the Caribbean Sea and Atlantic Ocean.
Yet, it’s more than its exquisite natural environment that captivates its visitors. The activities available across the resort cater to every interest and energy level – from lounging on the sun-soaked sands, snorkelling in crystal-clear waters teeming with reef and marine life, to hiking on one of the many nature trails.
The main clubhouse serves as the social hub, where guests can gather for meals, cocktails and socialising. Daily menus are determined by the happenings of the orchard, with chefs preparing farm-to-table cuisine using fresh fruit, vegetables and herbs, produce which also supplies the Hibiscus Spa and its array of aromatic treatments.
Celebrated as the only nature reserve with a cocktail hour, Guana Island stands out as a sanctuary where the natural world and low-key luxury coexist harmoniously.
