Peter Island Resort & Spa

This private-island retreat is all about serenity and catering to classic desert-isle fantasies. The resort is commited to delivering in quantity everything the genre is known for, especially peace and privacy. Add to that a staff-to-guest ratio of two-to-one, atypical service for the region (it's friendly and professional), and five untrafficked beaches for the thirteen sunny two-story bungalows that make up the property's 52 rooms on 1,800 acres. Elopers are common at this resort, and no wonder: the staff organizes everything before your arrival, leaving nothing for you to do but say, 'I do.' If marriage isn't in the cards, a couple can still take advantage of the countless coves, accessible only by sea. Boatmen will drop you off with just a picnic basket and your imagination. You don't have to be a guest to use the spa, which welcomes day-trippers for the ultimate indulgence: 5 hours of massages and body buffing in a private couples suite.

Room to Book: Ocean View rooms in two story poolside A-frame cottages offer panoramic views of the Sir Francis Drake Channel.

Doubles from $680, all-incusive.
