Well, I got interested and I googled it!
It's mentioned here: http://www.bgci.org/garden.php?id=735&ftrCountry=VI&ftrKeyword=&ftrBGCImem=&ftrIAReg=
Also, here: http://www.seestjohn.com/water_island.html
...and here: http://www.usvi.net/water/html/features.html
VI Now has a decent section on Water Island, and I'd like to think that if the B/G was operating in a reliable way, it might be listed as one of the attractions, so I am unsure of how it's receiving visitors...

Don't know of a website for it. Water Island Botanical Garden was created by Walter Phillips. His nephew currently owns the home and maintains the garden. Visitors are welcomed, call to schedule a visit. (Phillips was the private developer that leased the island from the Dept. of Defense back in the 50's and developed homes and a hotel on the island.)
