Tradewinds Restaurant
Exceptional cuisine, an elegant wine room, and open-air restaurants await Peter Island guests. Peter Island Resort is known throughout the Caribbean as much for its innovative cuisine as its inspired scenery and artfully combines international favorites with island flair. Classic yet contemporary dishes fused with Asian and Italian culinary influences are served with the unmistakable warmth and personable Caribbean staff of Peter Island.
Resort menus showcase seasonal ingredients, simply prepared and beautifully presented. The cuisine adds new signature dishes including rum-basted tropical lamb satay with grilled pineapple and coconut-lime sauce and seared filet of tuna marinated in a Japanese blend of soy sauce, rice wine vinegar and sesame oil.
Tradewinds is the resort's main restaurant. Named for the warm breezes that whisper through it, Tradewinds boasts greater intimacy with large dramatic windows and gorgeous views of Sir Francis Drake Channel and Tortola. Table dressings display German china, French silverware and Italian crystal.

Wine Room
To showcase the essential complement to exceptional food, Peter Island Resort added a wine room to Tradewinds, complete with a mahogany banquet table, floor-to-ceiling wine cases and precise climate control. The resort broadened the depth, variety and quality of wines available and now offers over 300 selections within the Caribbean's most exclusive collection of champagne, wine, cognac, armagnac, grappa and eau de vie up to $450 per bottle.
Before or after dining, Drake's Channel Lounge serves sumptuous cocktails and frozen drinks amidst cushioned chaises and brisk Caribbean breezes. Resort favorites include the Landscape, a tri-colored concoction of midori, mango and raspberry, and the Mango Smoothie blended with ice cream, rum and coconut cream.
Every Thursday, Peter Island Resort welcomes 12 guests to the vitner’s wine-pairing dinner in the private wine room, complete with floor-to-ceiling wine cases.
Saturday evening features a bountiful buffet which focuses on flavors of the Caribbean. An array of salads, meats, seafood, vegetables, and fruits await guests followed by a large assortment of desserts.
For "Caribbean Tea" each afternoon, Peter Island features English tradition with a tropical spin, offering flavored iced teas with fresh-baked pastries and Caribbean breads. Typical fare includes passion fruit, mango, rum, lemongrass or cinnamon tea with coconut drops, banana or carrot bread, and pancake-sized chocolate chip cookies.

Deadman's Beach Bar & Grill
Deadman's Beach Bar & Grill, camouflaged by seagrape trees and towering palms, offers lighter fare for lunch and dinner with the most dramatic setting in the Caribbean. The restaurant features a wood-fired pizza oven and expansive salad bar buffet plus hot entrees, sandwiches, and Peter Island's special ribs.
Evening at Deadman's brings a delicious blend of Caribbean and Continenal flavors in a seaside casual setting. Each Sunday, a live steel drum band accompanies lunch, all just steps from the beach under the shade of a cedar shake roof.
Monday night features a special West Indian buffet and the steel drum band returns to provide entertainment for dining and dancing under the stars. Jumby Stilt-walkers often come to add more fun.
The dedication to fine dining reaches beyond the resort's restaurants and lounges. Expanded room service, poolside luncheons, and Peter Island's famous White Bay Picnic Lunch each provide a new and decidedly exceptional approach. The picnic, a gourmet lunch delivered to guests at the specified time by a staff member, includes real linens, plates, silverware and cold drinks. When summoned, resort staff promptly removes the basket after lunch to ensure a private beach experience.
For a classic taste of the Caribbean, make Peter Island your next vacation destination.
