island_guana.jpg GUANA ISLAND
British Virgin Islands
18 degrees north, 65 degrees west

With some of the most bountiful biodiversity of any privately owned island in the region, Guana Island fancies itself the Galápagos of the BVI. It’s a tall claim, but Guana, a private nature reserve, just might live up to it, with 850 acres of lush tropical forests and unusual species like the stout, rock iguana, red-legged tortoise, and masked booby. Take it all in on a hike along the island’s spiny ridge out to Long Man’s Point, with picture-book views over the Atlantic and Caribbean, or in an afternoon of paddling a glass-bottom kayak over the house reefs. And if you tire of the open-air attractions, the comforts of civilization, like a massage in the beach spa and a quiet spot to read in one of two new villas, are only a few steps away. From $19,500 per night for up to 32 people; guana.com
