The BVI’s resurgence after the catastrophic Hurricanes Irma and Maria in 2017 takes center stage in the listing, penned by Times journalist Nora Walsh. Highlighted are the revival of key luxury properties: the Bitter End Yacht Club, known for its upcoming over-the-water lofts set to debut this year; the newly envisioned Biras Marina & Resort; and the transformed Peter Island Resort, which reopened in December 2024 after an extensive overhaul.

Director of Tourism Clive McCoy hailed the recognition as a milestone in the territory’s recovery and evolution. “Our inclusion on this year’s list reflects not just our beauty but also the resilience, creativity, and unwavering hospitality that define the BVI,” McCoy said. “The revival of iconic properties, coupled with increased direct flights from the U.S., signals a bright future for tourism in the territory.”

The BVI’s placement on the list is expected to amplify its global profile, leveraging the Times’ vast audience of over 153 million monthly readers. The endorsement comes as the islands invest in both infrastructure and visitor experiences, offering pristine beaches, world-class sailing, and a vibrant cultural tapestry.
