Paradise found: why the British Virgin Islands should be your next Caribbean holiday March 3, 2025

Craving a crowd-free Caribbean holiday? The kind of get-away-from-it-all break that involves lolling about on deserted beaches, daily snorkelling and quaffing piña coladas? I hear you. Arriving here does require a breezy inter-island hop on a miniature plane after your long haul flight to a main island, but it’s undoubtedly worth the extra effort. You’re rewarded with swathes of unspoilt nature and some of the region’s most dazzling beaches, complete with pristine stretches of powder-white sand and warm turquoise lagoons.

The BVI is a collection of over 60 islands, each with its own unique charm. From secluded coves to vibrant reefs, it’s a place where you can truly disconnect. Whether you’re snorkeling in crystal-clear waters, sailing around hidden islands, or just lounging on a quiet beach, the BVI promises unforgettable experiences.

The BVI is home to some of the most luxurious resorts in the Caribbean. Peter Island Resort & Spa, located on its private island, offers ultimate privacy and luxury, perfect for a romantic getaway. Rosewood Little Dix Bay combines eco-conscious elegance with tropical beauty, offering an idyllic setting for both relaxation and adventure. Long Bay Resort, with its intimate beachfront setting, is the perfect place for a peaceful retreat, while Scrub Island Resort offers an ideal mix of luxury and adventure, with world-class diving and endless activities.
