THE BEACH HOUSE- beach-chic luxury at Long Bay beach

A beach house in the chicest sense of the word, the impeccable decor offers sophisticated & understated glamour in an oceanfront setting. I could go on forever about the cool, calm sense of luxury at The Beach House!

One of the closest villas to the beach on Tortola, it's elevated enough for privacy & glorious views over sparkling waters, but just a stroll from Long Bays soft sands & beachfront restaurants.

Remember to follow our socials @villasoftortola for all things BVI!

LIVING AREAS:
The remodel of this villa was just recently completed in 2021 and it's unrecognisable from its former layout as Van Dyke House. The new owners, talented and successful restauranteurs, have impeccable taste and created an amazing layout with an emphasis on indoor/outdoor living. It's a very sociable space, with multi-level decks bordered by lush landscaping ... the infinity pool appears to overflow into the ocean just yards away. A neutral colour palette, with white paints and natural woods are complimented with splashes of pale blue creating a very calming beachy vibe.

A house filled with air and light, the large glass-panelled doors allowing the sunshine to stream in and in true beach house-style, can be left open for summertime living. Packed with both style and substance, the kitchen is equipped with top of the range stainless steel appliances, a breakfast bar with high stools and an eye for detail that only a chef could have. It flows seamlessly into the stylish living room and its 2 walls of glass doors that open out onto the deck. If you can bear to look away from the sweeping ocean views, it's a comfy room to watch the 50'' Dish Satellite TV and relax. A teak dining table for 8 sits on the covered porch directly outside the kitchen and is a blissful spot to enjoy meals with an ocean backdrop.

BEDROOMS & BATHROOMS:
The 4 bedrooms are dotted around the property providing space, privacy & luxury for all guests. The bathrooms alone are exquisite with the most amazing selection of tiles and finishings.

1) The guest house is ultra luxurious - a spacious Primary king suite where you can retreat to your very own spa-like sanctuary. It has a separate entrance at the top of the property and is up a flight of steps above the main pool deck. Complete with conveniences like a fridge/freezer, microwave, DeLonghi Coffee Machine, 32'' Satellite TV, sofa & indoor and outdoor showers, you could spend your whole vacation here! A private deck tops it all off and is a dreamy spot to enjoy time with your partner on the chaise.

2) Next to the BBQ deck is an elegant twin bedroom with ensuite bathroom which can of course be made up as a king bed.

3) Facing the beach, on the front porch is a split level queen suite with a spacious bathroom and 40'' SmartTV with Dish satellite.

4) The fourth bedroom is smaller than the others and on the lower level. It has a queen bed, 32'' Dish satellite TV and its own shaded porch and table and chairs overlooking the beach. *We do accept 8 guests but please note that this bedroom is really best suited to a single adult due to the size of the room and the louvre style doors to the ensuite bathroom.

STEP OUTSIDE:
The outside areas are just as sleek, elegant and sociable as the inside. The infinity edge pool feels as if it reaches right into the ocean and is an incredibly relaxing place to spend the day listening to the waves. Stylish sun loungers and fun bean bags keep the atmosphere relaxed, while the outdoor stereo system can create whatever mood you're looking for.

A whole other dining experience awaits on the upper pool deck where a stunning BBQ area with built-in gas grill offers the perfect backdrop for starlit dinners next to the pool.

There's also a convenient poolside bathroom with shower off the BBQ deck.

PLEASE NOTE
By request, you have the option of a pool heater at the additional cost of $50/day. Many guests choose this in the winter months

For beach activities, there’s plenty of beach bars you can rent a lounger from (or just setup on the sand). The water is calm and clear and underfoot is sandy so it's an excellent place for swimming.

There are also jet skis, paddle boards and kayaks which can be rented along the beach.

Beautiful Property With Amazing Views
We arrived 2 days after tropical storm Ernesto and was pleased to see that the property had a huge, diesel generator which was enough to provide power to everything. The property manager, Sharlene did an amazing job helping arrange for our arrival as the ferry from St. John was not in service and allowed us to check in a couple of hours early. When we arrived there were about 10 people working on the house to make it perfect for our family. This property was spectacular from the furnishings to the pool and all that was needed for our comfortable stay. It was an added touch to not have WIFI which was to be expected after the storm because it allowed us to totally unplug. Thanks to Sharlene and to Sam for answering all the questions and working so hard to prepare the house for our family vacation. We had an amazing time and actually spent more time at the house than we would have normally because it was so comfortable and nice. The views of Long Bay from the 2nd level/main deck and pool area cannot even begin to be described not to mention the sunsets.

Great Villa! Great West End Location!
Layout of the Villa was ideal for us - we had 4 adult couples. The location is a great West End location. The pool (and entire outdoor space) is amazing and the sunsets are incredible. Couldn’t have asked for a better villa for our vacation! Thanks a bunch!

Perfect Paradise Getaway
You’re a stones throw away from the water and you have breathtaking views from the house. You can’t go wrong staying here and we will definitely be back. Sharlene and her team were amazing with answering all the questions we had. The infinity pool overlooking the water was perfect. Not a lot of restaurant options if you don’t have a car but with the views from the house, we happily ate in most days.

Great place to stay!
Overall, the property is exactly as listed. The one thing that was not included was the telescope which you can see in the pictures. We were a little disappointed when we arrived that it was not there. And we could not get the outdoor speakers to work. That would’ve been nice to have the music by the pool, the portable speaker provided wouldn’t hold a charge. Tortola is a very beautiful island. It was our second trip. This home is amazing. The location is wonderful. We were able to walk to several restaurants & to the beach. You could get away without a car, but you will be waiting on drivers and taxis to pick you up when you need to go to the store or to the ferry. I would definitely consider renting this home again. The beds were extremely comfortable too. I can tell that the owners put in a lot of work and thought into completing this home. The finishes are very well done. Everyone enjoyed their stay and we were sad to leave.

West End Paradise
My family of 5 stayed at this wonderful location in December. The house is lovely with all the amenities you will need for enjoying and entertaining. A car is necessary to get around. Very quiet on this end of the island. Beach is very nice but wavy while we were there. There is a new property being built next door but with the wind we didn’t even know anything was going on. Another sheltered beach is near by with 2 beach bars. Some great restaurants near by and also within walking distance. Did a day trip to Jost via the West End Ferry. Also a snorkeling trip from West End. The managers and their assistants were very responsive and helpful in making recommendations (ferry, activities) and assisting with reservations (car). Highly recommend.

Beautiful June stay in Tortola
The Villa is perfectly positioned literally yards from Long Bay beach, while at the same time being elevated enough to provide wonderful uninterrupted views across the bay to Jost and be above any traffic. We stayed for 10 nights and at times there were 8 of us, but because the villa is on 3 levels it never felt crowded, but you do need to be able to climb steep inclines and steps. The Villa was quite recently finished to a very nice standard and everything was working or quickly sorted by the property managers.

Sam, Sharlene, and Pinky were all very helpful in guiding us to exactly what we needed for our stay. We chose not to rent a car and Sharlene set us up with a driver named Eric. Eric was great.

Loved the Beach House
Photos do not do this property justice! It’s a short walk to Long Beach! The magnificent views and varied colors of the water are breathtaking! The Beach House is stocked with all of the amenities you need to make your stay comfortable. It’s beautifully decorated and impeccably clean. Charlene was so helpful guiding us to the grocery store upon our arrival and then to The Beach House where housekeeping put everything away! Pinky’s rotis and her daughter’s bakery cookies were a delicious convenience! We paid for heat in the pool which we loved floating in as we enjoyed the view! We suggest that the master suite have curtains put up on the east windows as the light shines in very bright and early. The neighbors have a barking dog which was a nuisance when trying to sleep at night, especially in the west bedroom. Overall, we we would highly recommend The Beach House for it’s amenities, cleanliness, convenience to the beach and breathtaking views!

From the moment we booked through VRBO, the hosts contacted us and provided a bounty of information. The online picture did not do the home justice…it was even more spectacular in person. We were greeted by Pinky and she made us feel at home. Her chicken rotis we’re also a great treat for our day-of arrival. We’ve already reached out about renting again next year. We fully enjoyed our bit of paradise.

Can’t say enough about this beautiful vacation home. Great decor and amenities, perfect location
We had such a great week at the Beach House. It is gorgeous with incredible views out on Long Bay - especially when enjoyed from the infinity pool. All of the rooms were stunning and offered a lot of privacy. Our local hosts were so helpful and easy to work with. From the house it was an easy drive to Sopers Hole or Nanny Cay for provisions. There was a beautiful beach at the foot of the driveway and we could walk (just under a mile) to Smugglers beach. We also walked to Long Bay resort for a couple meals. All in all one of the best vacation rentals experiences we’ve ever had!

As good as it looks
Beautifully decorated house equipped with far more than you will need. As good as the photos are, the house is even lovelier. The garden was filled with flowering beaugainvilleas while we were there with ripe papayas and mangos on the trees. There is an outside kitchen that will satisfy even the most demanding grill master and we loved the views and location. The outside showers in the master bdrm are spectacular. The master bedroom is completely independent and has everything to cook meals to eat on its own terrace. We loved everything about this house but there are things about it to take into consideration: 1. The driveway is very steep and getting up and down takes considerable driving skill. To be fair, this applies to just about every house in Tortola. 2. There are a lot of steps, particularly from the main house to the master bedroom. Anyone who is incapacitated should not even consider this house, there is absolutely no wheelchair access and anyone who cannot manage stairs, don't even think about it. 3. The house is great for two couples and a child, but the bottom bedroom is a bit miserable and damp. Two bedrooms face the sea, one faces the grill and the bottom bedroom is below the deck and really not suitable for small children. We only used two bedrooms, so it was great. 4. We personally found the heated plunge pool too hot with no way to turn off the heat, so after a long hot day on the beach, it was more like a hot bath than a refreshing dip, but I guess that is a personal taste thing and we didn't use it. 5. Last but not least, as beautifully as the house has been decorated, one window of the master bedroom has been left without a curtain or blind and during the night, the lights from the gates are on all night. The first two nights the security lights stayed on all night because the owner's truck was parked too close to them, but once the electrician repaired the gate, that problem was solved but the room was still lit up at night and we were unable to turn off the light on the AC. The sun comes in that window in the morning at about 5am so be warned you need good eye shades if you are in the master bedroom. 6. The owners keep their truck outside the master bedroom so you cannot use that gate, which is by far the easier access. We had great communication with the manager and would recommend this house to anyone without hesitation, keeping in mind my few comments. We all loved this house.
