When times are tough, $590 a night probably doesn't sound like a bargain. But, when you consider that this gets you a night at the Peter Island Resort & Spa – on the largest private island in the British Virgin Islands – your thinking will probably begin to change. Add to this the fact that complementary beverages are included in the deal, not to mention three meals a day and an afternoon tea, it really does become an absolute bargain.

The new "Sip and Stay" program at Peter Island includes non-alcoholic beverages and house wine and beer ... as much as you like (unless the bartender shuts you off). Of course, you'll probably want to be somewhat judicious when ordering that next glass of beer, as you'll want to take advantage of the windsurfing, snorkeling, kayaking and mountain biking offered at the resort.

Peter Island Resort & Spa has 52 guestrooms and three villas that sit on 1,800 acres of property, along with five beaches, tennis courts and a private yacht. So, this really is good living ... made better by the free beer goggles you're likely to don.

To take advantage of the "Sip and Stay" deal, book your stay by April 30, 2009 for trafel from May 1 through October 30.
