This secluded and very private vacation villa, Island Dream, on the Virgin Islands has a spectacular 180 degree sunset-facing panoramic view from each room on its cozy 1/2 acre among palms and tropical flowers.
Each bedroom in this accomodation rental has its own private balcony facing the sea and each bathroom opens to an outdoor shower within flower-covered rocks. A rock garden merging with native plants on a hillside surrounds one side of the pool and the other side, bordered with varied tropical plants, looks out to the sea.
Since we like to cook, our kitchen has more amenities ( bundt and soufflé pans, for instance!) than many rentals .
The art is tasteful (and considered by one consultant to all the homes around, the best in this area) and we keep many books on fish, plants, BVI history, good novels as well as a special section of Caribbean cookbooks.
Island Dream is on a gently sloping hill on Virgin Gorda about 100 yards from the Caribbean Sea. It is the only house on the road and no other villas are behind or in front of it so it feels like being almost alone in a gorgeous national park.
Two beautiful, secluded beaches are a short walk away and have fantastic snorkeling. One beach has chairs and umbrellas; the other is pristine. The third beach, also a short walk is known for its lovely shells and white ,collectible sea urchins and bleached starfish.
It is also a short walk to the Nail Bay resort. There you will find a large pool with pool-side bar and grill, tennis court ( which I.D. renters may use), as well as a beautiful garden with picnic tables among the Sugar Mill plantation ruins.
The landscaping was designed by one of the foremost landscape designers in the Caribbean and includes a rare guavaberry tree, starfruit tree, two kinds of mango trees, papayas trees, key lime tree, banana and pineapple plants as well as a lovely tropical garden and rock garden.
