Guana Island

Guana Island, one of the most private hideaways in the Caribbean, is 850 acres of undisturbed natural beauty and one of the largest private islands in the British Virgin Islands.

On arrival at Beef Island airport be prepared to be whisked away by boat to an unforgettable island retreat. With ample time to explore, enjoy over twenty hiking trails or the numerous sports and watersports on offer. If its relaxation you are looking for, take a short ride down the White Bay Beach, take a yoga lesson or book a massage in the comfort of your villa or in the outdoor spa.

The island has an abundance of natural life and there is a small museum with information on its history and wildlife (nothing dangerous!).

If you’d prefer a calmer swim, you’ll find your own saltwater pool just steps from the ocean. And when you feel like company, hop in your golf cart and take the winding trail past a Quaker stone wall, the Island’s Orchard and the Flamingo Pond, to the main beach and tennis courts.
