Description of Sunset House

2016 SUNSET HOUSE SUMMER SPECIAL - BOOK 7 NIGHTS, PAY FOR 6! Book your 2016 May, June, July or August vacation at Sunset House and receive one night FREE! Offer valid only on bookings of 7 nights or more. Commanding an utterly breathtaking view of the mile-long strand of Long Bay Beach, this impressive mansion sits hilltop just above the idyllic stretch of white sand and aqua ocean. Photographs of this incredible view look wonderful, but photos cannot equal your walking through Sunset House’s front entry portico with that view majestically expanding in front of you. It’s unforgettable.

Built on three levels with a pleasing floor plan and offering plenty of room for everyone, Sunset House offers five air-conditioned bedrooms with ensuite baths, situated in two wings separated by the tiled pool terrace.

The large sunny pool terrace, wonderful for leisurely tanning and unwinding, features a hot tub, a waterfall cascading into the pool, and a shady covered poolside pavilion with a wet bar.

Four air-conditioned king (or two twins, your choice) bedrooms are situated in Sunset House’s east wing, including the air-conditioned, very private king master suite on its own upper level. This spacious master suite is decorated in soothing greens, and offers a mini-fridge and a sitting area. Bedrooms in the east wing are roomy, air-conditioned and screened, and each enjoys its own private balcony overlooking that spectacular, ever-changing ocean view.

Sunset House's main pavilion comprises the west wing of the villa. In this pavilion is the open-plan Great Room, the heart of the villa, with its fully air-conditioned living, dining and kitchen areas, wrapped with a covered verandah just outside for alfresco island dining overlooking that magnificent view. The Great Room has just been completely remodeled and now features cool travertine tile floors, and a stylish chef's kitchen with custom mahogany cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances and a handy wet bar with blender and wine fridge. Enjoy sunset cocktails on the verandah or catch up on the evening news in the air-conditioned living area while your dinner is being prepared by the talented Carmen, who has been cooking for guests at Sunset House for 15 years.

Tucked below on the main pavilion’s lower level, Sunset House’s fifth bedroom/bath suite, a queen suite decorated in blue, provides air-conditioned seclusion for the couple who wants privacy. This bedroom opens out to a wraparound verandah which connects to the pool terrace.

Sunset House offers a spectacular and convenient location on Tortola for a wonderful holiday. The view is unparalleled, the staff devoted to your comfort, and the expansive aura of this special villa will make you feel comfortable and relaxed from the start. Beaches, restaurants, bars, Bomba's Love Shack, and all the pleasures and fun-in-the-sun activities of Tortola's West End are just a few minutes' quick drive from this popular residence.

And so that you can really relax on your vacation, continental breakfast fixings every morning are included in your rental rate. Carmen and her assistant will also cook and serve your dinner for you every evening, also included in the rental rate. Before you arrive, you’ll decide on your menu preferences and your grocery order. Carmen will shop for your food and drinks, so everything will be ready and waiting at Sunset House when you arrive. You then reimburse Carmen for your grocery and beverage order. As we say at Sunset House, "No shopping, cooking or cleaning required, and no stress allowed!"

Please be sure to book early to reserve this wonderful island retreat for you and your family and friends! Sunset House offers affordable pampering for young and old - very highly recommended.
