The Biras Creek spa is set on the Atlantic side, looking out to the ocean. There are
two treatments rooms and a beauty salon and a relaxation room overseen by three therapists, who offer a series of massage and beauty treatments using the Decléor line of products. They also use juice from aloes and neem trees in the gardens at Biras too and salt from nearby Salt Island.
Massage is also possible in your cottage or on your veranda.
Treatments include aromatic massages and Swedish, Indian and hot stone massages. You can also have a couple’s massage on beds side by side that look out to the ocean. There are also salt scrubs for exfoliation, followed by a herbal or cream massage for moisturisation, or an exfoliation with plant extract followed by an envelopment and then an essential oil massage. Finally there are ladies and mens facials.
You can swing in a hammock or take an hour long hike, bask in the sun or swim at our Deep Bay Beach. For the active guests and those who just want to take a deep breath and relax, Biras has it all.
Beaches
The beach at Berchers Bay, adjacent to the Ocean and Garden Suites, is perfect for walking, reading and sunbathing. For swimming and water sport activities, the beautiful sheltered beach of Deep Bay is a 10 minute walk or short bicycle ride from the suites.
Bicycles
All guests are given their own Caloi bicycle for exploring the spacious property and meandering trails during their stay. Please note that we drive or ride on the left in the British Virgin Islands!
Boston Whalers
Grab your snorkel gear and a picnic lunch before departing in one of Biras Creek’s Boston Whalers, available to guests for two hour excursions at a time. Each capable of taking up to three adults on exploratory trips around the protected waters of the Sound, the Whalers are a perfect escape to a private beach or a snorkeling haven.
If you are unfamiliar with motor boats, our Marina Village Dockmaster will be happy to give you instructions, which only takes a few minutes.
Garden Walk
Biras Creek’s Head Gardener, Alvin Harrigan, informs and delights guests as he describes the landscape and plants during his weekly walks. He willingly spends additional time with the guests who want to learn more about the plants and their care. Alvin will meet you in the Arawak Room at 10:00 am on Monday morning for a tour through Biras Creek's lovely gardens.
Hiking
Set amidst two hills and surrounded by three bodies of water, Biras Creek’s trails provide spectacular views of the entire property as well as panoramic vistas of the Atlantic Ocean, the North Sound and Deep Bay. Along the trails hikers will discover an abundance of diverse flora including cacti, wildflowers and mangrove forests. Experience resident wildlife including iguanas, birds and the pigmy gecko, the world’s smallest lizard which can only be found in the BVI.
