Petit St Vincent

Petit St. Vincent Island is a 115-acre tropical paradise with a rhythm all of its own. A boutique beach resort where low-key luxury meets high-end service. A place to disconnect from the world and reconnect with each other. This is Caribbean living as you dream it can be.

How to Get There

From Barbados

The best way to get to PSV is to fly into Barbados. We will arrange a privately scheduled flight with Mustique Airways to Union Island from Barbados. These flights cost $700 per person for a round trip and are added to your hotel bill upon checkout.

Would you please keep in mind that you must be scheduled to land in Barbados no later than 3:45 pm to make your connection to the resort on the same day? Your flight should depart from Barbados after 2:00 pm for your connection to return home. Between Union Island and Petit St. Vincent, the boat transfer fee is $35 per person for a round trip. Total transfers for two guests: $1,470 round trip.

Sustainability

The management of Petit St. Vincent is proud to be fully committed to ensuring our planet is healthy for present and future generations. We are conscious of our waste, the beautiful ocean and all its creatures, the fuel and resources we use, and our local community.

Golf

Canouan is a wonderful day trip from Petit St. Vincent for golfers; cruising time is just 55 minutes,  a distance of 8 nautical miles.

The Caribbean’s most exciting and challenging course has been named in the Top 10 of  The Best Golf Courses globally.

The exhilarating and challenging Jim Fazio designed an 18-hole championship golf course set on dramatic sloping hills and along the ocean edge. Every world-class golfer’s dream is a hundred and fifty undulating acres of dramatic hills and seashore, with breathtaking sea views from every angle.

Holes 12, 13, 14 and 15 are undoubtedly the most scenic holes on the course and the most challenging. 

They sit on the top of the ridge and have a spectacular view of the neighbouring islands. Hole 16 features one of the longest par 3 in the world at 305 yards. The breeze at the top of the ridge adds to the challenge but makes these holes the most sensational.

Beach Restaurant and Bar 

The beach restaurant and bar lie on the island’s leeward side, surrounded by swaying palms and sugar-white sands.

The open-air restaurant is where you can dine on chargrilled locally caught seafood and vibrant Mediterranean-inspired salads or choose from our freshly baked clay oven pizzas. Those craving comfort food can tuck into juicy Black Angus burgers or Caribbean jerk chicken. And, between November 1 and April 30, our guests can feast on complimentary fresh lobster. Stretching over the water’s edge is Goatie’s Bar. With a traditional grass-thatched roof, low-cushioned sofas, and round rattan loungers, there’s nowhere better to enjoy a drink or two come sundown.

Choose from a selection of locally brewed beers and chilled wines from the cellar, or ask the team to mix up one of their signature rum punches.

Wine Cellar

Our walk-in wine cellar houses over 6,000 Old World and New World wines. With an emphasis on regional styles and terroir, our collection features multi-award winners such as Joseph Phelps Insignia, Penfolds Grange and Domaine Ott, to name but a few. We’ve also curated an exclusive collection of champagne, barrel-aged rums from all corners of the Caribbean, and a selection of world-famous whiskeys, cognacs, and gins.

Join our sommelier on a tasting journey across the globe. Discover which of our smooth, Cognac-style rums marry deliciously with our chef’s chocolate desserts, or let us pop open a bottle of your favourite champagne.

Activities

Day Trips

Scuba Diving

Canouan is surrounded by crystal clear waters and coral reefs teeming with marine life, making it an ideal location for SCUBA Diving. Diving can be arranged through the hotel; however, advanced notice is required as diving instructors are outsourced from neighbouring dive operators.

Yoga

The open-air pavilions are perfect for early morning yoga sessions or peaceful moments of meditation.

Spa

Managed by a highly skilled team of therapists from Bali, the hillside spa is a tranquil hideaway dedicated to nurturing mind, body and spirit. Home to four open-air treatment rooms, the spa is where you can indulge in everything from deeply relaxing massage treatments to smoothing, all-natural body scrubs.

Sailing

With so many mile-wide sandy bays, spectacular coral reefs, and lush tropical islands to explore, the Grenadines are best explored by boat.

Set sail on the beautiful stretch of water and fish for barracuda, Mahi Mahi and yellowfin tuna. Drop anchor at some of the best spots for snorkelling and scuba diving before barbecuing freshly caught seafood on deck. Or, enjoy a romantic picnic, just the two of you, on a secluded private beach at sunset.

Watersports

With a water temperature of around 84°F, a moderate breeze all year round, and an entire underwater world just waiting to be discovered, Petit St. Vincent is the ideal place for a wide variety of water sports.

Take out one of our kayaks and spend a few peaceful hours searching for sea turtles, elegant eagle rays and the many other beautiful fish that call our surrounding waters their home. Master the art of windsurfing, witness the beauty of an offshore sunset on a deep-sea fishing trip, or take a short boat ride to Ashton Lagoon – one of the top places in the Caribbean for kite surfing.

There is no need to book any of our activities in advance. Instead, speak to our team when you arrive, and we will take care of all the arrangements.

Fitness

An abundance of facilities is available for those searching for an action-packed getaway or for those who wish to work on their fitness.

Begin the day with a hike to the summit of Marni Hill for breathtaking panoramic views, enjoy a full-body workout with our 20-station outdoor calisthenic fitness trail, or perfect your serve on our floodlit tennis courts. And if you’re keen to enjoy a round of golf during your stay, head to the nearby Canouan Island and play on one of the most picturesque courses in the Grenadines.
