Frommer's Review
Guana Island was bought in 1974 by Henry and Gloria Jarecki, dedicated conservationists who run the resort as a nature preserve and wildlife sanctuary. Upon your arrival a Land Rover will meet you and transport you up one of the most scenic hills in the region, in the northeast of Guana.
The cluster of white cottages was built as a private club in the 1930s, on the foundations of a Quaker homestead. The stone cottages never hold more than 30 guests (and have only two phones), and because the dwellings are staggered along a flower-dotted ridge overlooking the Caribbean and the Atlantic, the sense of privacy is almost absolute. The entire island can be rented by groups of up to 35. Although water is scarce on the island, each of the airy accommodations has a shower. Renting North Beach cottage, the most luxurious of the accommodations, is like renting a private home complete with a pool. The panoramic sweep from the terrace is spectacular, particularly at sunset. There are seven beaches, some of which require a boat to reach.
Guests will find a convivial atmosphere at the clubhouse; casually elegant dinners are served by candlelight on the veranda.
