Nestled in Virgin Gorda’s North Sound, Oil Nut Bay is a private island resort offering an exclusive retreat across 400 pristine acres. Known for its world-class villas, vibrant marina, and laid-back boating lifestyle, the resort is set to debut the first overwater spa in the British Virgin Islands this spring.

Opening in spring 2025, Sundara Spa will offer an immersive wellness experience inspired by the sea and surrounding landscape.

-
A hospitality bar and retail boutique

A hair and nail salon
