On PSV there is plenty of privacy since there are twenty-two grand secluded cottages spread around the island.Each cottage is constructed with native blue bitch stone. The ceilings are made from the purpleheart hardwood. Besides a fantastic view, each cottage has a living room, a bedroom with two queen sized beds, one or two bathrooms and a wooden deck. The living room has two daybeds to accommodate children.

There is no air-conditioning, TV, room keys or pool. There is also no crowds, waiting in line and no schedules. This resort is all about privacy, seclusion, beaches and service.You come to PSV to get away, to relax and enjoy a tropical island environment. There’s no other island resort in the Caribbean like this one.

PSV is an escape from your normal life and is something very special. Your cottage will not have the usual telecommunication equipment. You make any requests for meals, coffee, rides or a picnic lunch by using the flagpole signaling system. The flagpole is outside the cottage. If you have a request, you write it up on a note, insert it into the box and raise the yellow flag. Someone will be by shortly to fulfill you request.

Each cottage is connected to the main dinning room with a short walk. So if you want to have meals in your cottage, on the beach or in the dinning room; you will not be disappointed.
