In all the world, no waters equal those of the Caribbean. Alluring. Gentle. Beguiling. There is

a mystique shrouded in a thousand shades of blue. This idyllic sea, a comfortable distance from

civilization, has for centuries enchanted natives and travelers alike. And among the many jewels

in this treasured string of isles, rests a pristine preserve at the far West End of St. Thomas in the

U.S. Virgin Islands. Overlooking three half-moon beaches, with waves gently lapping and a steel drum

floating on the breeze, there may be no better place to watch the sun slowly slip below the horizon.

On this fabled island, on this perfect coast, paradise begins. Welcome to The Preserve at Botany Bay.

he gentle caress of a breeze, then the

soft rustle of a palm. The quiet roll of a

coral blue wave lapping talcum sands.

Long arms of bougainvillea inching

around the cool stones of a forgotten

sugar mill. Here, on this majestic island

within an island, souls are nourished,

nature is preserved, the world is at bay.

The Preserve at Botany Bay is a protected,

397-acre enclave at the secluded West

End of St. Thomas in the U.S. Virgin

Islands. In this perfect and pristine world,

where the tiny islands of Salt Cay reach

out to sea, an intimate and luxurious

resort is taking shape – private estate lots

with postcard-perfect unobstructed views;

luxurious villas crowning the pinnacle

of the property; a five-star boutique

hotel and residence club; a waterfront

spa and beach club; and perhaps, you.

The history of the U.S. Virgin Islands is steeped in rich and

colorful hues, with elements of the past still visible in the

present. First came the Indians from South America followed

by the Spanish, French, Dutch, English – even pirates and

buccaneers have seen their flag flying over these fabled islands

and called them home. And so, from St. Thomas’s harbor of

capital Charlotte Amalie to the quiet west end where Botany

Bay awaits, the culture is a tapestry of Latin sensuality,

European grace and a distinctly Caribbean love of life that

inspires everyone who reaches this perfect island paradise.

t. Thomas is a legendary destination for

water sports enthusiasts and modern day

adventurers. Hike the island’s rolling

hills surrounded by the panorama where

the Atlantic Ocean meets the Caribbean

Sea. Meander the silky soft beaches, and

curl up under a palm on what was once

a sugar plantation. Diaphanous waters

provide unparalleled visibility for diving

and snorkeling – the coral reef floor is

as dazzling below the surface as above.

Challenge the sea’s big-game fish, or sail

from isle to beautiful isle with a gentle

nudge from the Caribbean trade winds.

rtifacts found on the shores of Botany Bay indicate

that the area was first settled more than 1,600

years ago. The found materials – which include

decorative ceramics and spiritual pieces – as

well as architectural ruins on the property have

been the subject of considerable attention by

archaeologists, who have successfully petitioned to

add the site to the National Register of Historic

Places. Bearing in mind the site’s historical

importance, we have taken many steps to ensure

low-impact development at The Preserve at Botany

Bay, paying rigorous attention to architectural

design and landscaping, focusing on erosion- and

sediment-control measures during construction,

and protecting the coastline, beaches and reefs.

We are working with archaeologists, botanists

and local historians so this treasured site will

not only be sustained, but also evolve as a place

of discovery for generations to come. This

environmental awareness is more than something

our Owners expect – it’s part of who we are.

A place so special could only realize its

potential through architecture informed by

the island’s rich history and the promise of

all that is possible. Private Villas look across

infinity pools that fall from one level to the

next, a waterside spa and beach club are joined

by soft sands and lines of palms, and atop

the cliff separating the two bays, a dining

and swimming pavilion is as breathtaking

as the sunsets. Everywhere are echoes of the

hewn stone ruins of the sugar mill, contrasted

with sleek contemporary surfaces. Here,

design inspires and invigorates the spirit.

rom diving at dawn to a nap at the beach to

a sunset sail, every day at Botany Bay brings

endless delights and diversions. Everywhere

are lushly secluded private spaces, the most

inviting being the Beach Club at the edge

of Botany Bay – where an infinity-edge

pool, swim-up bar and grill, and restaurant

with indoor and al fresco seating await.

Not far along the shore is the spa, where

treatments at the water’s edge promise a

new dimension in relaxation. Designed

around native healing methods and salves

that have nurtured islanders for generations,

treatments soothe and invigorate the mind,

body and spirit. More formal, but always

relaxed dining and cocktails are to be found

atop the point between Sandy Bay and

Botany Bay. Overlooking a spectacular pool

that disappears into the Caribbean, this is

one of the most glorious settings on Earth.

Owners at Botany Bay will enjoy a wealth of luxurious

services and amenities. Fresh flowers from the property

and delicacies from the island anticipate arrival. The

refrigerator and pantry are stocked. Daily housekeeping,

a personal chef, and airport transportation are

offered, and the concierge is always ready to attend

to reservations for charters, meals and unique island

experiences. The entire Preserve, the Beach Club,

spa, cliffside restaurant and pools are all reserved for

the exclusive use of Owners and their guests. And

for outdoor lovers there is biking, hiking, diving,

snorkeling, guided day trips – everything to make life

in this tropical idyll a vision of paradise, perfected.

For more than a decade, the Timbers Resorts mission has stayed the same: to create special places to return to time and time again to get back to what is most important; spending time with family and friends. Comfortably casual. Unique. Authentic. Fun. Places where luxury is without pretense. �e thoughtful design of our hotels and residences makes them perfect for private times, while our gathering areas are lively and rich with inviting amenities. Architecture and landscapes are appropriate, but always with a surprise or two.

Our vision is a promise… of paradise perfected. It is a far-reaching and encompassing philosophy, and a concept as deceptively simple in plan as it is di�cult to execute and sustain. A spectacular, one-of-a-kind destination; a resort that is intimate in scale; and a rich and diverse lifestyle experience.

Ranging from one to more than two acres in size, they are spacious, private, and convenient to the beach and amenities.

Sandy Bay Lots Just steps away from a crescent beach, considered to be among the very best beaches in the USVI, these spectacular homesites are within close reach of the amenities, and yet, supremely private. �ese waterfront sites along the path to Mermaid’s Chair range up to two acres, and one visit will forever make this a �tting description of your home here.
