Located on a private peninsula on the Eastern Tip of the sunny British Virgin Islands sits Oil Nut Bay in one of the most secluded and private destinations in the world. I was told you can only access Oil Nut Bay via boat or helicopter and I wouldnt let that small detail stop me. I decided to do both. <\/p>\n
I chartered with the most popular helicopter service in the area, Caribbean Buzz Helicopters located in St. Thomas. Maria Rodriguez and her husband Nicholas Van Heurck having been flying for over 20 years and started the company five years ago. Along with their amazing pilot Jerry Becker, they have flown billionaires, celebrities and high end tourists to custom destinations all throughout the islands. Charming and knowledgeable, Maria greeted us in the private waiting room of the St. Thomas airport and flew us in the R44 to Biras Creek in Virgin Gorda. Herstories of the islands and her ability to make us feel instantly at ease while hovering over the crystal clear azure water is one of the highlights of the birds eye experience. <\/p>\n

A quick flight soaring over the crystal clear waters we approached the helipad at Biras Creek Resort on Berchers Bay by the North Sound of Virgin Gorda. Maria gently set us down as we were greeted with staff members from the Resort. We boarded a private ferry to take us on the short trek around the island to the dock of Oil Nut Bay. Standing on the dock, jutting out into the tranquil bay surrounded by a natural coral reef, was a line of Oil Nut Bay staff members. Looking like a group of freshly scrubbed J Crew models, all dedicated to our welcome; one handed us cold towels, another bottles of chilled water. We were whisked away by private cart to our luxury accommodations for the weekend, the spectacular Bella Beach Villa, 6,000 square feet, 6 bedrooms and pure island decadence. Located right on the pristine white sand, the villas two master suites overlook the pool and beachfront. <\/p>\n
