On the mountainous island of Tortola, to find a villa that’s close enough to walk to the beach and have a spectacular view is a feat in itself.
Completed in December 2012, Alfresco’s been finished to a very high standard under the watchful eye of the owners who are an English couple who fell in love with Tortola many years ago.
The concrete driveway sweeps gracefully up to the villa, with parking and turning space and steps lead to the large, welcoming mahogany front door. Once inside, your view looks straight down onto the living room and ocean views beyond. In front of you is the well-appointed kitchen which in turn leads onto a covered dining porch above the pool deck. Furnished with Indonesian teak furniture throughout, and decorated in a neutral palette, the fabulous views remain the focal point. The beautiful dark stained woodwork throughout is the perfect accent.
The living room has 2 very comfortable sofas, local FLOW cable TV, a stereo with wall-mounted speakers, a selection of books, games and DVDs and 2 sets of very large screen doors.
All bedrooms are ocean facing, fully-screened and also offer AC. The bathrooms all have wonderfully large fully tiled showers.
The master suite and second bedroom are in a second pavilion at the end of the pool deck. Upstairs, the spacious master suite offers a king size bed, 2 porches and an en-suite bathroom with shower.
Downstairs, adjacent to the pool deck, the second bedroom has twin beds (which can be made up as a comfortable king size bed), and en-suite bathroom with shower. Perfect for guests who prefer to avoid steps when possible.
The pretty third bedroom is accessed by steps down from the pool deck and offers a queen size bed and en-suite bathroom with shower. This bedroom is nice and private.
The pool deck is the central hub of the property, with six sun loungers, a gas BBQ and informal poolside dining table with umbrella, as well as calming azure views. There’s also a poolside shower and a half-bathroom off the pool deck.
Enjoy the comfort of Alfresco and the ease of it’s location in Long Bay in the heart of West End. The walk down the hill to the beach is an easy 10 minutes or a couple f minutes drive.
Long Bay Beach is a mile of white sand, perfect for a bit of exercise! Smugglers Cove (less than 5 minutes’ drive west) is idyllic and perfectly sheltered by its vibrant reef which provides sensational snorkeling. Apple Bay (a couple of minutes’ drive East) offers world-class surf.
We’re lucky enough to have West End ferry terminal, Soper’s Hole Marina and a great selection of restaurants within 5-10 minutes drive of the property and there’s a friendly community feel with a good mix of residents and tourists in the area.

Alfresco was the perfect villa for our family to spend the holidays together. Gorgeous views and amenities, and going through Sam Pierce and her team at Villas of Tortola made ALL the difference! They made everything seamless, from arranging taxi service pickup at airport , rental car delivery to the villa, sorting provisions prior to arrival and tons of great suggestions throughout our stay. Going forward, I will always book a villa through them for their 5 star service and attention! P.s we asked Pinky to make some of her famous roti’s for our arrival and they were delicious! Highly recommend! (Taylor W 1.23.2023)
I just returned from a great trip to Tortola and I was fortunate enough to stay at the Apple Surf Villas on the North Shore. I stayed in the upstairs “Sea Breeze” Villa and it was a great place to stay! It’s oceanfront with two facing decks looking out to the ocean! It’s located on a quiet side road with plenty of parking. Kathi and Peter who own the villa are great to work with and very accomidating and helpful with any local Tortola information! I liked the villa and location so much that I booked another stay for later in the Year! (Jeff L vrbo 1.31.2019)
Loved our stay at alfresco. Location was great…close to wonderful restaurants on the water and smugglers cove. House is as great as advertised. Property manager took good care of us too. Eric, the cab driver that Sharlene connected us with was fantastic. Can’t wait for our next trip back to alfresco! (Leland M 6.26.2022)
The house is perfectly situated on the island. The managers are wonderful with suggestions. They sent links to groceries and met them when delivered to sort out refrigerated items. Pinky met us at West End and led us to our week of paradise. She even made roti for our first evening there. The pool was used after our daily ventures on the island. While the roads have no names, you will easily find your way around the island. The views are everything you expect and more. (Susan M 6.10.2022)
From the moment I inquired about this property I rec’d prompt detailed responses. Great experience. Sharlene and team arranged for a rental car (Jerry’s) pick up at the to meet outside West End, customs, provided provision company names and all provisions were put away when we arrived, arranged for a surprise Happy Anniversary greeting with an absolutely beautiful floral arrangement with balloons and champagne. They were a pleasure to work with. I would also love to give a shout out to Louise for keeping the home spotless and doing our laundry. We would certainly stay again and will miss sunset from the pool. Thank you for sharing your home. (Sue D 5.14.2022)
Everything at the house was just as we remembered it. It just has a beautiful layout. We love the fact that the house sort of embraces the pool, and unlike other villas I’ve looked at online, this one seems unusual in the way it surrounds the pool vertically as well – it is so thoughtfully designed in that way. You have plenty of space but are never really very far away from the others.
We took the 6pm ferry to JVD for New Year’s Eve. We rented a small powerboat for a few days, we went to JVD, around Tortola and up to the Baths. Some good friends of ours were just arriving on the island as we were leaving – they will be sailing this week.
I can easily imagine that we’ll be back in touch with you about renting Alfresco again. (Tom & Robine V 12.23.2021)
Probably one of the most beautiful villas we have ever stayed in, privately located in the hills overlooking the beautiful ocean.
We were three couples and the accommodation worked out perfectly. All bedrooms are luxuriously appointed with amazing shower areas finished to an exceptionally high standard.
Lots of space to relax and enjoy the most stunning views of Long Bay from the pool and terrace with exquisite sunsets from the BBQ area in the evening.
Would love to return. Sam, JC and Allison were a joy from booking to accommodating us at the villa.
Alfresco is a delight, pure paradise. (Julie C 9.3.2021)
Everything about Alfresco Villa was lovely. Sam, the property manager made the trip exceptional. We traveled during the strict covid measures, and she helped us to navigate the fiasco that the BVI created. The villa itself was a welcome respite from that stress. Well stocked kitchen meant that we could look after ourselves perfectly during enforced quarantine. All her contacts were kind and helpful and made our trip amazing.
I’ve never had the luxury to stay somewhere so nice. I do hope I have the chance again. (Susie T 5.9.2021)
We enjoyed another wonderful winter stay at Al Fresco, staying a month over late January and most of February 2021. The house and property are beautiful and very comfortable, with the perfect spaces to relax, remote work and practice yoga. Al Fresco’s location on the quiet and peaceful West End of Tortola makes for a great getaway. Al Fresco overlooks Long Bay beach, which can be reached with a short walk or drive, where you are often the only one on the beach for hours. The area is also home to several of the BVI’s best winter surf breaks, a reasonably well kept secret that keeps us coming back.
Allison, as well as Sam and JC at Villas of Tortola and the staff that maintain Al Fresco are wonderful and a pleasure to deal with. (John F 1.24.2021)
