The views from the beautifully furnished lounge, kitchen and dining room are unsurpassed and the living areas open onto a spacious verandah which overlooks the vast pool area of Sunset House.

Complimentary Wi-Fi is available throughout Sunset House and books, games, flat screen TV, DVD player and DVDs are provided for your enjoyment.

There are many beautiful beaches within easy reach of Sunset House on Tortola. Long Bay beach is a few minutes walk and Cane Garden Bay where you can enjoy various water sports – dinghy sailing, windsurfing, stand up paddle boarding etc., is only 10 minutes drive. You can also take water taxis to Jost van Dyke and Sandy Spit and day sails to other islands are available from nearby Soper’s Hole. Smuggler’s Cove on Tortola is great for snorkelling and between November and March, the surf is up and you can surf or boogie board at nearby Little Apple Bay. A visit to the Callwood Rum Distillery on Cane Garden Bay is a must and so is a visit to the Botanical Gardens in Road Town, the capital of the BVI. The location of Sunset House is perfect for accessibility to all of these places.

If you would like a Spa treatment these are available at nearby Sugar Mill Hotel or Soper’s Hole or it can be arranged for a therapist to come to Sunset House and you can have a treatment in the comfort of your own room.

Complimentary continental breakfast and the services of a cook, serving staff and housekeeper are included in the rental. Provisioning can be done prior to arrival. The cost of the food for additional meals and the house provisioning will be charged to your extras bill and Sunset House’s excellent chef will be happy to prepare as many meals for you as you wish.

Should you wish to dine out and sample some of the local restaurants, there are several to choose from within easy reach of Sunset House. Tropical Fusion is a great beachside restaurant and about 5 minutes walk from Sunset House. Sebastian’s on the Beach, da Coalpot, Bananakeet and the Sugar Mill on Tortola are only a few minutes drive. Road Town is about 20 minutes drive where you will find a great selection of excellent restaurants – The Dove, A Taste of India, Fantasia by Georgio’s and many more. Captain Mulligan’s at Nanny Cay shows all the big sporting games and is around 10 minutes drive from Sunset House.

Sunset House is a real gem and excellent value for money. Sitting on the terrace watching the sunset over Long Bay in the beautiful BVI and sipping your favourite cocktail, really is a dream come true.

Travelling from the UK to the British Virgin Islands

The most direct way is from Gatwick to Antigua with British Airways and onwards to Tortola with inter-Caribbean Airways, which is also a non-stop flight. Virgin Atlantic fly from Heathrow to Antigua and the onward flight is with inter-Caribbean Airways to Tortola. Alternatively, BVI Holidays can charter a private aircraft just for you and your party. You will be met when you disembark your transatlantic flight and fast-tracked through immigration and customs and taken to your waiting aircraft.

Travelling from Scotland

Flights from Edinburgh and Glasgow can also be arranged to connect with the Gatwick and Heathrow flights on certain days. Flights from regional airports can be arranged through Paris or Amsterdam to St Maarten and onwards to the BVI.

Travelling from New York, Boston or Miami

If you would like to have a few nights in New York, Boston or Miami before heading to BVI, this can also be arranged. The onward flight is via Puerto Rico which is a 35 minute hop over to the British Virgin Islands or again, a private charter can be arranged.

There are no direct flights to the BVI which is why the islands remain unspoilt, uncrowded and uncommercialised. From the summer of 2023, there will be a flight from Miami direct to Tortola.
