Coastin' A-Long - Exceptional Views and Great Long Bay Location!

*Please enter correct # of guests for an accurate quote* (we have a base rate for 2 guests with an additional fee for extra guests)

With perfect azure views from just about every room (and outdoor areas), Coastin' Along provides the dream setting for a vacation. Floating in the crystal pool & gazing at islands in the sparkling ocean never gets old. The completion of Long Bay Resort below makes this area highly desirable and offers daily passes to the tennis and pickleball and gym for a small fee).

The surroundings may be totally tranquil but the villa sits in the exclusive hillside estate of Long Bay, just a 3 min drive from the white-sand beach & handful of beachfront bars & restaurants of the bay below.

LIVING AREAS:
Remodelled in 2021, the villa feels lovely and fresh with beachy Caribbean decor lifting your mood in every room.

The open-plan living room, kitchen and dining area are filled with air and sunlight and make for a very sociable space. There is plenty of comfy seating in the living area and a Smart TV (if you can bear to look away from those views). The modern kitchen is well equipped for self-catering (including dishwasher - no one wants to be washing up on vacation!). There's a choice of indoor dining areas - a breakfast bar with high stools or a dining table for 6.

BEDROOMS & BATHROOMS:
The Villa offers three King bedrooms and bathrooms with access to outdoor spaces and sweeping ocean views, so no arguing over bedrooms necessary!

1) The most private bedroom is in a separate pavilion at the end of the pool deck. This bedroom is its own little sanctuary, with huge floor-to ceiling glass doors framing the deep blue and an outdoor shower off the ensuite!

2 & 3) Both these bedrooms are upstairs in the main house and offer similarly stunning views. They both have floor-to-ceiling glass doors which slide open onto a shared balcony, complete with comfy lounger and sofa. The perfect morning coffee spot.

OUTDOOR AREAS:
The French doors in the living room open onto a wrap around deck and create a wide-open living space with covered alfresco dining table and plenty of comfortable outdoor furniture for lounging by the pool. There is a built-in propane BBQ for grilling up some local fish or lobster.

The villa's tranquil surroundings offer peace and quiet to read a book on the deck, enjoy a cocktail, or fall asleep to the majestic view of the Atlantic. The turquoise pool just begs you to take a dip - unwinding has never been so easy.

The Villas of Tortola team can't wait to welcome you:)

💨 AC: All bedrooms have AC and there are ceiling fans and ocean breezes to cool you throughout the rest of the property!

🧹 HOUSEKEEPING: is once midweek

📶 WIFI: There is Wifi

⚡️GENERATOR: There is an automatic-start generator in case of power outages.

🅿️ PARKING: Conveniently located outside the front door making it very easy to transfer groceries without having to negotiate steps

✅ CHECK IN: Just after booking, The Villas of Tortola team will send you a personalised villa and island guidebook by email. This will include all the details you’ll need for your stay including directions to your villa, recommended car rentals and taxis, how to self-check in, instructions on how to use/ where to find everything in your villa, online provisioning & much, much more. Plus, loads of tips, tricks, suggestions and personal recommendations for all things Tortola

ABOUT THE AREA
🏖️🍴🎾LONG BAY (3 MIN DRIVE/ 20 MIN WALK) - It's a pretty walk down but a fairly strenuous one up! At Long Bay you’ll find a mile-long stretch of white sand and turquoise waters and a selection of beachfront refreshment options - 1748 Restaurant, Tropical Fusion, Johnny’s Beach Bar and 1748 Coffee Shop. If you’re feeling energetic there’s Long Bay Beach Resort’s Tennis and Pickleball courts. A day pass will buy you hours of fun!

🏄‍♀️🍴 APPLE BAY (5 MIN DRIVE) – A little village with world-class winter surf and a handful of bars and restaurants (Sebastian’s Seaside Grille, Sugar Mill, Tramonti) for all occasions.

🥭🍴CARROT BAY (8 MIN DRIVE)
A lovely village where you'll find local fisherman, fruit stalls, North Shore Shell Museum and D’Coal Pot restaurant.

🏖️🍴SMUGGLER’S COVE (10 MIN DRIVE) – Smuggler’s Cove is idyllic and perfectly sheltered by its vibrant reef which provides sensational snorkeling and is home to Patricia’s laid-back beach bar. *cruise ship passengers sometimes come here so check out the BVI cruise ship schedule first: https://www.bviports.org/cruise-schedule

⛴️🍴🛒SOPER’S HOLE MARINA (10 MIN DRIVE) - Here you’ll find West End Ferry Terminal (where you can catch boats to fellow British Virgin Island Jost Van Dyke and US Virgin Islands St John and St Thomas) and a great selection of restaurants, a well-stocked grocery store, boat charter companies, shops and more.

🍴WINDY HILL (10 MIN DRIVE)
Head to Stoutts Lookout for a chilled beer with an incredible view over the bay or Banakeet (Heritage Inn) restaurant for one of the best dinner spots to watch the sunset on island.

🏖️ 🛒💃 🍴CANE GARDEN BAY (15 MINS DRIVE)
The buzziest beach on island, you'll find a whole variety of restaurants, bars & nightlife (Indigo Beach House, Elms, Paradise Bar, Myett's plus many more) lining the water. You'll also find a small grocery store, a white sand beach with calm swimming and options for watersports and Callwood's Rum Distillery. *all these amenities mean that the cruise ship passengers come here so check out the BVI cruise ship schedule: https://www.bviports.org/cruise-schedule

GETTING HERE
✈️ TERRANCE B. LETTSOME AIRPORT (EIS) (50 MIN DRIVE) is on Beef Island in the East End of Tortola (connected by bridge). It’s the only airport on Tortola and where you'll fly into.

⛴️ WEST END FERRY HARBOUR (10 MIN DRIVE) The closest place to catch a ferry to connect you to the US Virgin Islands (St Thomas & St John) and fellow BVI Jost Van Dyke

🚗 Although there are ferries to connect you to other islands, the public transport in Tortola is basically non-existent and there’s so much to go and see but taxis add up quickly. Tortola is only 12 miles long by 3 miles at its widest, but it’s a mountainous island and the roads can be quite rugged. We can help you to reserve a 4WD SUV or direct you to recommended local car rental companies who understand that good 4WD vehicles are mandatory to explore with confidence. They can offer delivery to your port of entry or villa (we can help organise you a taxi to take you to the property) & carry a selection of cars & jeeps. Jerrys Car Rental is the easiest car rental company to work with online.

Beautiful Villa with Exceptional Views but Thoughtless Property Manager
The villa was spectacular, with exceptional views as advertised in the listing. It was very clean and well appointed. We really enjoyed our stay, except for a very stressful arrival, and an apparent lack of concern by the property manager Sam. When I reserved the villa earlier this year I was unsure how many family members would join us. I was pretty sure there would be 5 adults, but maybe as many as 8, at least for part of the time. We chose this villa because of its appearance, comfortable layout, and spectacular views. We realized that there were only 3 bedrooms with king beds, but it looked like there was a large couch and plenty of room for an extra person if needed. The listing says "sleeps 7." There is nothing about a maximum of 6 people, yet that is what Sam told me after 5 of us arrived and I mentioned that 2 more would be joining us that night. She said that would not be possible because there was a strict policy of 6 people maximum. I explained that my sister was flying in that night and would have no place to stay. She was inflexible and said that she would check on other places. She called back later and said that everywhere she checked was fully booked. She was still unwilling to accommodate, said we would just have to find something, and never called back to check. Fortunately, my son was finally able to book a room at Nanny Cay. This, of course, was quite inconvenient and an additional expense. Sam did not seem to care.

Lovely villa with spectacular views!
Located on the hill overlooking Long Bay, this villa had everything we needed for a relaxing and fun vacation. We especially loved the spectacular deck with its comfortable furniture for coffee/breakfast in the morning, cocktails in the evening, and stargazing at night. The pool was refreshing after a day at one of the north shore beaches. Great location for an easy drive to Smugglers Cove, Long Bay and Cane Garden. Don’t hesitate to book this villa!

The peak of paradise
Our stay at this fantastic property was nothing short of amazing! The entire process from booking through checking out was super easy. Our host lined up transportation from the airport to the front door where the fun began. The house had everything we needed for our stay and our views from the porches and pool were fabulous. My wife and I traveled with 2 other couples so everyone had their own space and the beds were very comfy. My wife and I stayed in the guest house suite and we loved the outdoor shower as well as the views out of the 3 walls of glass that surround the king size bed. We’ve traveled all over the world and this trip is definitely in our top 3 which means we will be back for sure! We hated to leave but knew we’d return and we can’t wait to do so! We give this stay a 5 star review and hope the future guests will enjoy it as much as we did.

Paradise Visited
Coastin Along is right out of the 'House Beautiful' style magazines - beautiful setting, tastefully decorated, well appointed, pool, porches overlooking the islands. It was perfect for 2 grandparents in the pool house while grandchildren ( age 7 and 9 ) and parent stayed in the main house. Nearby restaurant 'Tropical Fusion' is excellent. I highly recommend staying here.

Wonderful Property and Location
My husband and I stayed at this beautiful villa for 12 nights. What Sam, the property manager, and her staff did prior to our arrival and during our stay was fantastic. From the initial pick up at the ferry by taxi driver Eric, to the welcoming tour of the villa by Pinky and getting our grocery order stowed away, to the very accommodating people of Jerry’s Car Rental, all made this trip a memorable one. I also need to mention the house keeping that took place while we were there. Amazing. So unexpected. So, obviously, my husband and I loved the villa and the location is fantastic. So many great restaurants within a short drive. The villa is so comfortable and there are many areas for sitting and enjoying the spectacular views. Must mention that it was a bit daunting the first few times driving up and down the roads from the home in our rental car, but my husband gained confidence with every outing. And while we were there on Tortola, we started talking about returning to Coastin’ A-Long next year. Highly recommend this villa.

Perfect rest and relaxation
We spent 5 nights at the property after a week sailing the islands. It was the perfect spot to relax! The property is stunning and has the most incredible views out over the ocean. The pool is lovely taking full advantage of the amazing views, the beds all huge and super comfy and the kitchen was fully equipped. The sofa on the upstairs balcony was the perfect place to relax and read a book. The property managers quickly responded to all of our questions and were really helpful. We appreciated having a hire car so we could visit some of the local beaches and buy our groceries. Tom snorkelled at Long Bay and was lucky enough to see a nurse shark! We have had a truly amazing time at the property and left reluctantly but feeling completely happy and relaxed. Thank you.
