North Island is a place that is undeniably the very best in privacy, location, accommodation, services, facilities and experience. The owners have restored the island's landscape to a place of flourishing beauty, to the extent that it can be described as a Noah’s Ark in warm tropical waters of blue and aquamarine. Only 11 guest villas have been built here, with materials gathered from the island and put together to create a harmony of luxury and nature, the very epitome of 'barefoot luxury'.
The heart of North Island life is The Piazza, a spectacular structure under a large Indian almond tree. From here guests can enjoy 360 degree views of the beach, tropical forest and ocean whilst relaxing in the lounge or bar, delving through the library's artefacts, purchasing memorabilia from the treasure-trove boutique shop, or planning escapades at the PADI certified activity centre. The main pool can also be found here, a 45m long infinity pool, carved into Spa Hill and looking out over the ocean.
Each villa on North Island (excluding Villa North Island) has two bedrooms, a master bedroom and a second bedroom/lounge and study for children. When a couple is travelling alone the lounge will remain a sitting area, set up with deep, slouchy sofas and coffee tables. At night this area can be changed into a private cinema complete with projector, screen and surround sound. The luxurious master bedroom has a changing room and dressing table which leads into the en-suite bathroom with bath and both indoor and outdoor showers. All the villas are air-conditioned and have fans over the beds. If guests wish to be thoroughly at one with nature then they can also slide back the retracting doors and let a cooling breeze flow in from the ocean.
Dining on North Island is as exquisite as every other experience here. In order to ensure guests feel thoroughly spoiled, the chefs will develop your own daily menus based on your tastes and preferences. Meals are then accompanied by delicious wines and champagnes from the island's extensive cellar. Choices of where to eat are wide, from the large dining area, to picnics on white sand beaches, casual poolside meals, or romantic set-ups in the privacy of your own villa.
Children that visit North Island will find it to be the ultimate playground with an unparalleled number of activities on land and in the water. The setting and pirate history is enough to capture everybody's imaginations and the amount of space and freedom will encourage all to run wild and explore. Each family's experience on the island is tailor-made and the Beach Buddy programme will design your stay around your child or children's preferences. All activities are supervised enabling parents to get that much needed peace and quiet time and enjoy the romance of the island.
