Fodor's Review:

Cooper Island is one of those Caribbean spots that hark back to an earlier era when frills were few but the peaceful atmosphere was sublime. You usually either love the quiet or hate the isolation. Once you arrive via a complimentary ferry ride from Prospect Reef, Tortola, there's nothing to do but relax, enjoy the sun and the sea, and visit with old and new friends. Rooms are really small suites with basic cooking facilities, but the hotel's restaurant is nearby if you don't want to lug groceries on the ferry. Don't pack your hair dryer or electric shaver, because the wiring can't handle them. Meals run to basics like fish, chicken, and steak. Reservations are essential for the restaurant if you're not a resort guest. Pros: Lots of quiet, the Caribbean as it used to be. Cons: Small rooms, modest furnishings, need ferry to get here.
