What was originally an 11-room hotel on a 17th-century plantation estate has evolved into a 340-acre resort with 138 rooms, suites and cottages, three crescent-shaped white-sand beaches, eight hard courts (two with lights), an 18-hole golf course, and a small spa and fitness center. Yet thanks to ownership by the Armstrong family, it has never lost its personal touch. Guests may no longer help rake the beach, as they once did, but they do feel very much a part of the resort.

The tennis complex occupies a prime location: a terraced hillside just below the hotel overlooking the beach. Its covered wooden deck is a favorite place to gather after playing for the views of the Caribbean and on very clear days the islands of Tortola and Virgin Gorda in the British Virgin Islands.
On any given morning at the Buccaneer you'll hear the thwock, thwock of tennis balls and may look out to see nearly all of the eight courts in use. Some of those players will be hotel guests, who have first priority; many, however, will be local members for whom this is their home club, drawn either by the opportunity to play or by the weekly social mixers, round robins, clinics, and drill sessions. That combination ensures a stable of players for guests looking for games and generally improves the turnout for the various weekly programs scheduled during the busy winter season. And it has another advantage: many guests come specifically for the tennis, not just to play, but knowing that they'll run into some of the same people—guests or locals—year after year. The Buccaneer has a reputation as a place where lasting friendships begin on the courts.

Court Complex. There are 8 hard courts (2 with lights) arranged on two terraces cut into the hillside below the main hotel and above Mermaid Beach.
