The New York Times, a world renowned daily, and 'the' go-to authority on all things travel has featured Peter Island in a Newyorkesque article entitled: Luxury in the Caribbean: 7 Over-the-Top Retreats. Peter Island was thrilled to be included in the Sunday, Travel Section read by more than 13.4 million people world wide.  It's no surprise the New York Times reaches that many readers as the newspaper and their reporters are finicky about what and who they feature. They go to great lengths to craft an article that meets the expectations of the millions of readers that can't wait to read this prestigious newspaper.  Yes, I'm a fan, as it's one of the most credible 'travel resources' in the world.  They don't accept complimentary press trips, nor do they ask for discounts. They visit incognito and research heavily.

We are thrilled the New York Times considers Peter Island one of the top 7 Over-the-Top Retreats in the Caribbean and of course, Peter Island will continue to do our best to meet and exceed this expectation.  A big thank you to the New York Times for a fabulous article.  Thanks You!

Robb Report Magazine, which touts itself as the global luxury source, which I think we can all agree is a true statement, showcases Peter Island's uber luxurious 20,000 square-foot villa, Falcon's Nest, a villa that sits high above the Caribbean Sea offering guests the best, of the best. Here is the quote from Robb Report article, "The best rooms at the world’s top resorts are not rooms at all, but instead lavish villas, chalets, and even castles that offer everything from theaters to private beaches and spas. Here, we present 20 of our house favorites."

The article featured Falcon's Nest commonly referred to as "the nest" by many who frequest her.  "The nest" is a true Oasis for executives looking for a covert meeting base of operations. Celebrities also call it home as they seek a private escape on a private island, in a totally private villa, to relax and enjoy a stay far removed from the paparatzzi. The world has spead, and Peter Island is gaining a reputation as a paparatzzi no-fly zone escape.  What?  The island can institute a no-fly zone which keeps the camera snapping-paparatzzi at bay via air and land.  The island is serious about keeping guest confidentially and never, never kisses and tells.   Don't bother asking and yes that means you People Magazine, Star Magazine and more, as we won't tell.   When on island do keep your eyes peeled as a celebrity just may be lounging in a hammock near you!

Thanks Rob Report for the great article on Falcon's Nest!
