“I first drove through the pass right in front of Beran Island on my exploratory trip through the Marshalls in 2006. For some reason, it felt like home. As it turned out, it was the best place in the atoll, with a combination of location, surf out front, and a perfect anchorage. We were really lucky to be able to secure it, and the rest is history.” -Martin Daly

Over 2,000 miles southwest of Hawaii, Beran Island might not be the easiest place to access, but that’s the point. This private island is just about as far away from the crowds as you can get, making it an exclusive hideaway for ocean lovers from around the world.

Spanning 45 acres, Beran Island is covered in coconut palms and hardwoods typical of a sandy atoll. It’s surrounded by colorful reefs and world-class surf. Expect sunny skies, a comfortable breeze, and turquoise water as far as you can see. Peak surf season is from October – April, with North Pacific groundswell providing the best waves.

Even though Beran Island is nearly as far away from any major land mass as you can get, you certainly don’t have to rough it while you’re here. Savor delicious meals crafted by our private chef and rest your head in a comfortable bed after an exciting day on the water.

When Martin Daly decided to develop Beran into an exclusive resort island, he knew the accommodations had to be worthy of making the trip from so far away. Carefully designed to his specifications, Beran Island Resort came to life as the ultimate place to relax and recharge in between action-packed days in the waves.

The property was built over five years, from 2010 to 2015, and it was thoughtfully laid out to be an eco-friendly maritime base for surfers, divers, kiters, boat engineers, and anyone else finding themselves on Beran.

The resort itself has only 8 rooms, accommodating up to 16 guests. Every room features plush Casper mattresses, high-quality imported linens, Haiku fans, and, of course, refreshing air conditioning.
