Photos and Description of this British Virgin Islands holiday villa Luxury, 6 bedrooms, sleeps 16, waterfront, dock, kayaks, dinghy

A very special waterfront villa 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. 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. If you’re a little more adventuresome, take the 12 ft dinghy 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’s sailboard on the Sound.

The South Sound Villa is located on a peninsula overlooking South Sound on three directions. The back of the villa faces Gorda Peak, which is 1500 ft high. The villa is surrounded by gardens that are full of flowers year round . 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. 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

Review Submitted: December 19, 2007 Date of Stay: December 2007
We had such a great time at the villa two weeks ago. We had great weather, food and saw so many cool fish at the dock. We rented a boat for the day with Lydia's friend Benu, and ate at Puck's restaurant. Saw and did so many new things, I could not get to write in the journal but would like to email you this entry. Thank you so much and we are ready to get our reservation in for next year we had so much fun and great weather. My kids snorkeled twice a day maybe more at your cove, The Baths, Spring Bay, The Caves, Indians, Wreck of the Rhone, and others. The pool was awesome and the sunsets, sunrises and stars unbelievable.
Thank you for helping us experience this incredible place.

Review Submitted: February 26, 2007 Date of Stay: February 2007
Well, vacation is over and we are all back to work watching the snow fall out side. I just wanted to let you know that despite our travel issues and early generator training session, everything quickly fell into place after a late night dip in the pool, a few beers and a good night sleep. The villa and the island were perfect. Everyone had a great time. After plenty of snorkeling trips all around the island, my son and I came to the conclusion that the best spot was about 30 yards to the left of the dock and around the point. What a great spot!

We all look forward to getting back to the island again and decided the next time would be a sailing trip (once the twins get a little older). We will keep Reef Song in mind for that one. In the meantime, South Sound Villa will surely be getting some word-of-mouth advertising in the Boston area.

At the beginning of December I celebrated my 50th birthday at the South Sound Villa with 8 other women. The villa and it's views are unbelievable. The outside setting has water on three sides, flowers in bloom everywhere,and an almost guaranteed daily afternoon rainbow. The inside is beautiful, spacious and offers just about everything you need. It is worth every penny! The island of Virgin Gorda is one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen. The island people are very friendly and accomodating. This place is a must to see.

We were on Virgin Gorda in the first week of December. The villa was wonderful. It is fully equipped with everything you need. Wait until you survey the villa before you make a grocery run, there will be lots of left overs from previous guests. Also be prepared for the high food costs. Food is around 2 1/2 to 3 times as much as here in Dallas.

We loved the seclusion and privacy we had at South Sound. We rarely left the villa. In December be prepared for the wind. It was very strong and almost constant. At other times of the year it is less strong. The pool was to cold to get in but the ocean water was a great temprature. We snorkeled right off the dock without difficulty. There was snorkel gear at the villa but Mr. Cook recommends getting your own and I would second that. It will fit better and you will have a better experience.

The boat was a lot of fun. We putted around the bay quite a bit and spent a good bit of time exploring around Hurrican Hole.

We lost power on our first night for about 6 hours so be prepared with the generator as soon as you arrive. The power company came out and worked until 11:30 at night to repair it. There were very dedicated to come out at that time.

All in all we will definately be going back to South Sound whenever we can.

Review Submitted: March 25, 2006 Date of Stay: March 2006
Paradise on Earth! - Wow, Wow, Wow. The pink house was more than I could have imagined for our family and guests/friends. The photos on the website do not truly show what a perfect location and hideaway this special place is... We just spent 10 days celebrating my hubby's 50th B'Day with 5 couples /closest friends who had surprised him and had never been to the BVI or VG. What can I say was the highlight?.... was it the sunrises, the beautiful water views, the snorkeling right off the dock... the charm of opening the cattle gate and closing it, the pelicans swooping so close to the balcony, the rum? The house is large enough that we all had our own space and enough hideaways that you could have privacy and peace and quite. House is very well appointed (just open a drawer or cabinet and it's probably there) and well laid out. Dale George at Unique Events helped to make the week special by provisioning the house for our arrival after a hard, long day of missed flights/travel. I would suggest arranging this as travel to VG has a tendency to get "mixed" up. She also arranged a chef and a band to help celebrate the birthday bash.... We did not want to leave - ever and my friends and I are going thru culture shock and withdrawal upon our return to reality from our week in heaven on earth.. loved Virgin Gorda and are trying to plan our return again and again...
