BY AIR
Same day arrival is possible from most points in the Americas and Europe through the international airport in Barbados (BGI). Our reservations office will assist with transfer arrangements from Barbados to Union Island airport (UNI) in St. Vincent and the Grenadines (SVG). A flight of less than one hour gets you from Barbados to Union Island where our private launch will meet you at the dock for the 20- minute boat ride to Petit St. Vincent.
Guests have several options for their last leg of air travel:- Connect to a regularly scheduled Grenadine Airways Alliance regional airline flight to Union Island at a cost of approximately US$400 per person round trip. Our reservations office can advise you of timings and availability, as well as book your tickets should you desire.
- A private air charter can be arranged by our office for guests wishing to make connections via Barbados, Grenada or St Lucia.
- Canouan Island airport (CIW) can accommodate most private jets. Make sure to coordinate with our reservations office and we will arrange for your 55-minute private boat transfer from Canouan to Petit St. Vincent.
International arrivals into Barbados that land later than 3:30 p.m. may not make the last commercial connection to Union Island, which departs at 4:30 p.m. The small airport at Union Island is not equipped for nighttime landing. If you miss the last flight or daylight, we can help make arrangements for overnight stays in Barbados with preferred properties.
Barbados Airport / Security Service Tax
Effective Feb. 1, 2007, Barbados has imposed a Security Service Tax of US$15 per person (US$30 per person for stopovers of 6 hours or more). For your convenience we will handle this fee and add the cost to your final checkout bill.
We recommend you or your travel agent coordinate with our reservations office to ensure a smooth transfer.
BY BOAT
The Grenadines are an increasingly popular sailing destination and this is one sure way to get to Petit St. Vincent at your own pace. Make sure to drop anchor in our sheltered harbor and, however you arrive, come visit our beach restaurant and bar. For overnight stays prior arrangements should be made with our reservations office to ensure availability.
