Summer Heights: Luxury Villas, Tortola
TORTOLA
Summer Heights
4 BEDROOMS / 4.5 BATHS

Island perfection for couples or families! Summer Heights envelops you in its calm and peaceful aura - its hillside location affords long-distance ocean panoramas dotted with green islands in the distance, constant cooling tradewinds, and sets you above the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

A broad staircase of Mexican coral tile leads to the sunny enclosed courtyard and expansive deck, and to the pool tiled in cobalt blue, all overlooking sweeping sea vistas. A roofed poolside loggia provides a beautiful setting for casual dining and viewing sunsets, with the adjacent gourmet kitchen and bar immediately at hand. Enjoy an early morning sunrise or yachts tacking up the Sir Francis Drake Channel - the views from this villa are simply breathtaking. A stylish curved glass brick wall separates the kitchen from the very spacious Great Room. Four very similar, air-conditioned king bedroom suites with baths on two levels, decorated in ocean pastels or shell pinks, are just along the deck from the Great Room.

The lower suites open onto a semi-shaded deck hung with a double hammock; the upper two bedrooms open to private balconies. Each suite features a beautiful king four-poster bed, and has its own telephone, cable TV, VCR, radio, coffeemaker, and all suites have ocean views.

Summer Heights is a relaxed and restful haven with many enhanced amenities such as a gourmet kitchen, a computer with high-speed DSL, and a standby generator. A friendly, breezy vacation home for couples or families, this villa is conveniently located to town, shops, restaurants, and West End beaches. Josey the cat may visit you at Summer Heights from time to time.
