Young Island Resort, St Vincent & The Grenadines

Overview

A private island escape just 200 yards off the coast of St. Vincent, Young Island Resort offers a barefoot-luxury experience where unspoilt natural beauty meets warm Caribbean hospitality. Accessible only by boat, the 35-acre island is fringed with soft white sands, swaying palms, and calm waters, creating a secluded setting ideal for couples, honeymooners, and travellers seeking tranquillity with a personal touch.

Accommodations are spread across hillside and beachfront cottages, each built from natural stone and wood to harmonise with the island’s tropical landscape. Many feature private plunge pools, outdoor garden showers, and furnished decks with panoramic ocean or garden views. Interiors combine simple Caribbean elegance with comfort, and the gentle sound of the waves sets the pace for slow, restorative days.

Dining is a highlight, with the resort’s open-air restaurant serving fresh, locally inspired cuisine, often featuring seafood caught that very day. Meals are accompanied by homemade breads from Young Island’s famous bread bar and complemented by Caribbean rums and cocktails. Leisure comes naturally here, with snorkelling and kayaking in the sheltered lagoon, sailing to nearby islets, or indulging in spa treatments that use island botanicals. Guests can also venture across to St. Vincent for cultural excursions or take day trips to the Grenadines, returning to the calm embrace of their private island.
