Tucked away in the pristine North Sound region of Virgin Gorda lies Oil Nut Bay, a secluded and serene island resort spread across 400 acres known for its exquisite villas, incredible amenities and laid-back boating lifestyle. This spring, Oil Nut Bay will unveil the new Sundara Spa boasting 360-degree views and glass windows along the floor to the sea life below—the first overwater spa in the BVI!
A vast array of accommodation options include clifftop suites to new otherworldly seven-bedroom estates. The resort is home to a recently reimagined beach club with three pools and a swim-up bar, wellness center with gym, pickleball and tennis courts, Nut House Kids Club and nature center. Oil Nut Bay’s Marina Village is the lively social hub anchored by Nova, its signature overwater restaurant and bar with suspended pool, hammocks and daybeds. Couples and families delight in turtle tagging, kite surfing, seabobbing, feeding animals at the rescue barn or sampling rare local rum from the Rum Bible.
New direct flights from Miami to Tortola on American Airlines make travel a breeze. Nightly rates range from $650 to $17,950 per night. Homesites and villas for purchase range from $1.95M to $32.5M.
Sundara Spa
Oil Nut Bay’s Spa and wellness offerings draw inspiration from the sea and surrounding terrain to promote mind, body, and spiritual well-being. With its namesake as the Sanskrit word for beauty, Oil Nut Bay’s new overwater spa Sundara, opening in spring 2025, will be a sacred space that hovers over the crystal-clear waters of the BVI and boasts abundant glass with nearly 360-degree views and underwater windows. Sundara will feature a hospitality bar, retail space, hair and nail salon, multiple treatment rooms, and a wellness studio with four walls of operable glass for an open-air or conditioned space to host pilates, yoga, sound baths, meditations, workshops, and more.
