A very
special private waterfront Virgin Gorda villa for rent on its own
private
peninsula, this 6-bedroom
home
sits at the end of Mattie Point, with water on three
sides and Gorda Peak behind.
South Sound is a spectacular secluded area
of Virgin
Gorda, where you hear the waves breaking on the reef and your neighbors
are pelicans,
turtles and fish. To one side you'll see the Hurricane Hole and
to the
other is Great Hill. On the far side of Great Hill are fun places
to
visit such as Biras Creek, Saba Rock, and Bitter End
Yacht Club, all on Virgin Gorda. Swim
in the
infinity edge pool overlooking the sound or snorkel off the private
dock to
some of the best underwater viewing on the island of Virgin Gorda.
If
you're a little more adventuresome, take
the villa rubber dinghy or one of our three kayaks out to the 5000 foot
reef
for more snorkeling
fun or
motor over to the Hurricane Hole for exploration. Thrill
seekers
may even want to try out the villa sailboard on South Sound.
The Main House
This Virgin Gorda rental vacation villa has been designed to let the ocean breezes and sunlight surround you. The Mexican clay tile main floor is a free flowing area, including a living room with a built-in CD entertainment system, dining room and fully equipped kitchen with a seating bar for drinks. Double French doors along both front and back of the villa open to beautiful ocean views of Virgin Gorda. A 12 foot wide covered front deck stretching the entire length of the house is a great place for a casual lunch, a romantic candlelit dinner or your afternoon nap in the hammock or chaise. The 8 foot wide garden deck, with a stainless steel propane BBQ, will give you all the sun you want. Even the main floor bathroom extends into the outdoors, through sliding glass doors to the glass block enclosed double shower.
The U-shaped kitchen is equipped with a large side-by-side ice maker refrigerator, microwave, dishwasher, and electric self cleaning range. A complete set of kitchen utensils, small appliances and cookware is provided as well as glasses/dinnerware for 16. We also maintain a large selection of spices and basic condiments/supplies for your use.
Upstairs, you will find two bright and cheery bedrooms with walk-in closets, seating for two and overhead fans. One bedroom has a king size pillow top bed, and the other has two twins. The bathroom’s oversized shower has two sliding windows, which can be recessed into the wall, providing a great view of South Sound and the mountains of Virgin Gorda that surround it. A bridge, open to the first floor, connects the bedrooms. Extra guests can sleep on the queen sleeper sofa in the living room.
The Pool
The horizon edge 12,000 gallon pool is 5ft to 7ft deep with its own rock waterfall and lots of tile decks all overlooking South Sound. The pool deck has 8 chaise lounges and a 50 inch table with four chairs. If you want to lounge near the pool, but be out of the sun, enjoy our covered deck, which also has a 50 inch table, four more chairs and an entrance to the lower shower. Enjoy a drink at our covered poolside wet bar.

The South
Sound
Road, which
leads to the villa, connects to the main Virgin Gorda government road,
running
between the
Valley and Gun Creek. The South Sound
Road
is a one lane island road about 1 mile long, which goes through pasture
land
with cattle and is level and flat and easy to drive
on. You will also pass a private equestrian facility with wood
fencing and a large indoor riding rink as well as stables.
There is one cattle gate, which you may need to open and close. The
cattle
are peaceful and will
cause you
no harm. If they happen to be in your way, just slowly pass by
them.
We
recommend a rental car be secured
for your transportation while on Virgin Gorda, with several different
types
of rental vehicles available. We can arrange a rental for you and
have the
agency we work with pick you up at your point of entry. They will have
the
villa key, as well as a map to guide you to the villa. You can view the
cars they have available by going to the link near the bottom of the
page. Select the car you want and we will reserve it for you and get
you a discount. Contact us
for details.
The villa
has a guest book
for your comments, as well as booklets with information on dining
spots, maps,
and information on what to do on Virgin Gorda, plus books on the
history, flora
and fauna of Virgin Gorda.
