Winemakers 2010 – Falcon’s Nest Peter Island
Friday, December 3rd
Falcon’s Nest Peter Island – Five Course Gourmet Meal
Peter Island is a private island, with all the exclusivity and romance that it provides. At Peter Island there are more staff members than guests, with only 52 rooms, three villa estates such as Falcon’s Nest Villa, Crow’s Nest Villa, and Hawk’s Nest Villa, and 1,800 acres of lush, mountainous terrain, private beaches and the 10,000 square foot Spa at Peter Island. Guests come to actively explore the island and the surrounding British Virgin Islands, or to return to a secluded beach every day of their stay to nap, to read, or completely unwind.
