A superb property on the west end of Tortola, with spectaular views of the surrounding islands. High quality furnishings throughout are matched with the charm and professionalism of the staff.
The landscaped gardens at the property are immaculately presented within eight acres of grounds. Everywhere you look there are spectacular seascapes to transfix you and equally appealing areas set up for relaxing, enjoying the incredible views and watching the world go by at its very agreeable Caribbean pace. Deliciously curvaceous verdant islands in the waters below and the vistas over Tortola's Long Bay Beach, Smugglers Cove and the Salt Pond where pink flamingos are occasionally spotted, all look ripe for exploring. The immaculate, heated, infinity swimming pool with its pool deck and bar and the higher level sun deck could not have been placed better, so much so that you could imagine standing on the edge conducting an orchestra of sleek white yachts circling the islands below. The wonderfully presented, high ceilinged interiors are split between three separate buildings - a Colonial Main House, what's known as the Oriental Cottage and the Colonial Cottage.
