🛋️ LIVING AREAS:
The main pavilion greets you with an airy open-plan kitchen, dining and living room. A sociable space, perfect for preparing meals whilst chatting with friends or sinking into the sofas and watching the 50’’ flat screen SmartTV (complete with FLOW Cable and DVD Player). If work calls, the hi-speed fibre internet allows for effective and reliable remote work with a killer ocean view. The whole room is air-conditioned & fully screened. If you’d like to dine or work with the add-on of an ocean breeze, then the fully screened outdoor dining area is where you’ll want to set up camp (bug free!).
🛏️ BEDROOMS:
1) A sun-filled stroll past the pool will take you to the second pavilion and upstairs you'll find two bedrooms. The primary suite's elevated position makes for even more incredible views of the surrounding islands from your private balcony and morning coffee spot. Comfort is key, and a king-sized bed, built-in hardwood closets, 32” flat-screen TV with FLOW cable and ensuite bathroom will make you feel right at home. A really special feature is the outdoor stone shower – a blissful place to start or end your day.
2) Adjacent to the primary is a queen room and ensuite. This room is perfect for children who need to be close to the master suite as they can easily enter through the connecting door. Alternatively, this bedroom can act as a separate self-contained suite as the door can be locked and the room accessed from a separate entrance. It also has a small refrigerator, microwave and toaster oven for complete privacy. You’ll also be treated to a private sun deck with relaxing seating area.
3) In the main pavilion off the entryway, you’ll also find a spacious king bedroom suite complete with built-in closets, an ensuite bathroom with shower and stunning views just at the foot of your bed.
☀️ STEP OUTSIDE:
Surrounded by rustling palms and blooming bougainvillea, a 26 x 11-foot pool takes centre stage. Sunken into a neutral stone brick deck, the ledge running the length of the pool is an idyllic place to sit with a book or enjoy a glass of something cool and refreshing. You’ll find plenty of seating and lounging areas on the pool deck, for both sun and shade bather alike. All of course, with stunning azure vistas.

Arriving by boat and looking for dock space? Try these marinas nearby.
🚗 Although there are ferries to connect you to other islands, the public transport in Tortola is basically non-existent and there’s so much to go and see but taxis add up quickly. Tortola is only 14 miles long by 3 miles at its widest, but it’s a mountainous island and the roads can be quite rugged. We can help you to reserve a 4WD SUV or direct you to recommended local car rental companies who understand that good 4WD vehicles are mandatory to explore with confidence. They can offer delivery to your port of entry or villa (we can help organise you a taxi to take you to the property) & carry a selection of cars & jeeps. Jerry's Car Rental is our favourite and the easiest car rental company to work with online.
