Nestled in lush tropical gardens over 100 feet above sea level, this unique and totally private villa is situated on prestigious Steele Point, an exceptional private peninsular estate which crowns Tortola's West End. The Gestalt's charm begins to work its magic as you enter via the stone walkway through a flowering garden courtyard surrounded by lofty palm trees.

This home features open-air Mediterranean architecture showcasing living and dining areas on two levels, where elegant seagrass furnishings lend a stylish, tropical air, and where shady seclusion looks out to verdant plantings and serene ocean views. Gestalt is alluringly decorated in sea and sky blues and white with cheery yellow accents throughout. The adjacent bedroom wing with its four air-conditioned, screened bedrooms and four and one-half baths overlooks the very private pool and a large sun deck with cushioned teak patio furniture and a hammock. A private path leads down to Gestalt's oceanside dock for diving and snorkeling. Masterfully designed to combine maximum livability with unparalleled privacy,

The Gestalt may also be combined with Steele Point villa, 1/3 mile down the estate road, and/or with Blackbeard's Hideway (a new 2-bedroom villa on Steele Point Estate, to be completed in early 2008) to accommodate larger groups of up to 22 persons.

Steele Point estate's manager, Rick, lives on the estate in a separate apartment. He is there to assist you with anything you might need, including island advice - but your complete privacy at Gestalt is completely assured.

The new two-bedroom cottage, Blackbeard's Hideaway, is being constructed next door to The Gestalt, but the property owners have promised to keep noise and disruption down to the lowest level possible. The Hideaway should be completed in early 2008.
