The Top 5 Occasions to Vacation to the BVI: Family Vacation, Bachelorette Party, Honeymoon, and Couples Getaway


Summer is fast approaching! But the reality is, it is always a good time for a vacation when you’re headed to the British Virgin Islands (BVI)! Because the BVI resting at about 75 degrees Fahrenheit year around, it is always the perfect vacation spot for any time of the year. Sailing on a chartered catamaran is the perfect vacation for a variety of occasions. We have put together just a few of the many occasions that the BVI makes the perfect getaway.

Occasions to Vacation to the British Virgin Islands

While the British Virgin Islands is an excellent spot for any occasion, we have found that chartering a catamaran is most popular for several types of vacationing. Whether you’re looking for the next family vacation or the ultimate bachelorette party, sailing in the BVI is perfect for every trip. Here are the top 5 reasons to vacation to the BVI:

  1. Family Vacation 

  2. Honeymoon

  3. Bachelorette Party

  4. Couples Getaway 

  5. Family or Friend Reunion


1) Family Vacation

There are so many reasons why this makes the perfect family vacation. Not only do catamarans like As You Wish have plenty of space for even a large family of up to 8 people (like our family of 7!) to sleep comfortably, but also has plenty of room for hanging out or goofing off! The common room makes for excellent game nights, family dinners, cooking, or just sitting around. In our 46-foot yacht, each family member can have their own space or enjoy spending time socializing! In our always-growing family, we have a few major introverts and those who have the life-of-the-party personality. It offers the perfect balance for any kind of family!

The BVI also has lots of fun family activities. In our family who loves sports and the outdoors, we take advantage of the change to snorkel, scuba dive, paddleboard, hike, and wave riding. For me, I get tired after a few of the activities so I then gravitate towards enjoying the serene waters, reading, relaxing at the yacht clubs, and enjoying whats known as “island time” where everything is smooth, easy, and slow.


2) Honeymoon

It is hard to pick the perfect honeymoon destination. With countless high-end restaurants, a vast array of famous drinks and cocktails, and plenty of time for relaxation, the BVI is the perfect place for honeymoon. While many places offer beautiful scenery, we believe that the best option for a honeymoon is sailing in the BVI because of its privacy, rest and relaxation, and exploring. After a wedding, most couples are exhausted and ready for some time to themselves. A yacht in the BVI offers all the relaxation and privacy anyone could ask for. The BVI is the known getaway for many celebrities to escape the business of life in the US. 


3) Bachelorette Party

Anyone can rent an AirBnB for a weekend. But have you considered the bachelorette trip or girls week of a lifetime on a yacht in the BVI? Spend the entire day in a swimsuit and then dress up cute for an evening of fine dining and drinks. There are endless activities to do during the day, nightlife options at some of the restaurants, and many opportunities for rest and relaxation. 

The BVI is the perfect destination for a girls' retreat, be it a bachelorette bash, a wellness retreat, or a long-awaited gathering of friends. With its ideal climate, stunning natural landscapes, and abundance of tourist facilities, it offers an idyllic backdrop for both relaxation and revelry. While many Caribbean locations are accommodating  for various types of travelers—couples, families, and solo adventurers—a chartered catamaran in the BVI stands out as premier destinations for girls' getaways.


4) Family or Friend Reunion

Have you considered your next destination for the annual couples getaway with friends? Or, maybe it’s been a long time and everyone is ready to reconnect. The British Virgin Islands is the ideal vacation spot for anyone in the US or even around the world to reconvene, reconnect, or just get to know each other better. We have loved our trips with college friends, a couple of friends, and the family. 

There isn’t a place around that is so diverse in being able to accommodate large groups while still offering the intimate feel of vacationing together. Everyone can go at their own pace, whether that is swimming, snorkeling, and hiking, reading, sun bathing, and resting, or both!


The British Virgin Islands is Perfect for Your Next Trip!

There is no need to put it off any longer. The BVI is a must visit corner of the world and only a three hour flight from Houston and Miami. Whether you want to take the girls out, schedule that needed family reunion, or just take your sweetheart out for an unparalleled vacation, a yacht in the BVI is the perfect way to go.
