We stayed at the villa from December 3rd until December 14th. Villa Pisces is more beautiful than it looks in the photos. Peter met us at the airport and guided us to our villa. Clean and tidy, beautiful furnishings, large area. Very tropical. The pool area is to die for, and the beach is steps away. You can stand beside the pool and look out to the ocean. Beach is steps away, and basically deserted. Long walks along the water are a must. Total privacy in the villa with lovely landscaping. You can listen to the ocean waves every night for a restful sleep. A car is a must, as nothing is in walking distance. The IGA is 10 minutes away, and has everything you could possibly require. Peter was available to answer all my questions and solve my very few issues. I would highly recommend this property for two or three couples, a family with or without small children. Beach water is quite shallow and safe for little ones - not too rough. We hope to return at least once. Worth every penny!

This was my family's second visit to Provo, and Villa Pisces was incredible. Not only was the listing accurate, it was even better in person which is usually uncommon. We loved having our own rooms, a private pool, a grill to cook on, and essentially our own private beach. The property itself was pristine and well taken care of with a cleaning service halfway through the week. The location is ideal for having some privacy, yet accessible to town by car for dinners and daily outings. Less than a mile away is a marina that has water sports including jet skiing, and we often would drive to Grace Bay for dinners at the local hotels. You can't go wrong with most of the Grace Bay restaurants, but I would highly recommend the Regent Palms restaurant for unbelievable food and service, as well as the rooftop restaurant at the Veranda Hotel for a spectacular view of the bay. An all-around amazing vacation place, and we wouldn't go back without booking a villa with Peter!

the house is simply, but pleasantly furnished and has all the kitchen equipment ready to hand. Just beyond the pool, steps lead down to the beach, which has an almost powdery, white sand, and runs northerly about 3-4 miles. Apart from the occasional runner or walker, we had the beach entirely to ourselves. A strong breeze off the water meant we hardly ever saw a mosquito and generally didn't need the air conditioning. We had rented houses on St. John and Tortola for 16 years previously, but having a beautiful beach right below the house is an enormous advantage, not readily found on the other islands. The house was scrupulously clean and in good repair, and the photos don't properly convey its spaciousness and functional design. The supermarket is about four speed bumps and 20 minutes drive away, near Grace Bay. Apart from perhaps 18 houses on the two mile stretch of beach we frequented, there is no development on Long Bay - no hotels, no stores or restaurants, no marinas - just peace and quiet. A rental car is a necessity if you want to dine out or shop for groceries. A word of caution about the swimming. A sandy bottom lies off the beach for about 20 yards before a line of rocks, seaweed and conch shells appears parallel to the shore. Beyond that line, the swimming is still fine, except you need to keep a sharp lookout for speeding jet skis, whose drivers may well not see a swimmer in the water ahead of them. We never saw them inboard of the line of rocks and seaweed, but they zip along quite smartly beyond that line and contact could be damaging indeed. the proximity of the house to the beach is a treat, and jumping in the pool to wash off the salt makes it even better. Peter is knowledgeable and informative about the island, but suffers from an inexplicable attachment to Chelski. This curious eccentricity did not prevent him from rapidly attending to a sticky door handle. We were three couples and the villa provides both sufficient privacy when you want it and convenient gathering spaces when you don't.

We recently visited Villa Pisces for a much needed vacation and it exceeded all of our expectations. We were met at the airport by Peter and after obtaining our rental car it was a short drive to the villa- the roads were all paved and street signs made it easy to find our way. As soon as we stepped into the villa we knew that we had made the right choice. The villa was clean and well maintained and the view was spectacular. We loved the huge pool, but the best part was being right on the beach. We walked every day and felt like we had the beach to ourselves. There is a lot of privacy. This was our first visit to the island and hopefully it won't be our last. We have rented villas on other islands and this was by far our favorite. We found the selection of restaurants to be wonderful and had several fabuous meals. Also having a large IGA grocery a short distance away was very helpful. Once we got used to driving on the left side of the road, getting around the island was very easy. Peter and Sally were great. They are available anytime and helpful in answering any questions about the villa or the island and offering signtseeing/restaurant suggestions. I could go on and on, but if anyone is thinking about a visit to Provo, this villa is one to consider renting.

Villa Pisces offers convenient, comfortable, single-floor living with abundant privacy and convenient access to all major T&C attractions. Peter and Sally at Seafeathers could not have made our vacation more enjoyable; the condition of the property was excellent and their knowledge of local amenities and attractions enabled us to enjoy an effortless vacation. This property is a perfect fit for families with children of any age.

Our first trip to TCI couldn't have been better, and our beautiful accommodation at Villa Pisces made it truly special. Peter and Sally were a great help for any questions we had and the house provided everything we needed and more. And what can you say about the amazing location... Long Beach is fantastic. And although a car is necessary, we found the villa's location to be perfect - just 10 minutes to Grace Bay, golf or groceries. Villa Pisces gave us everything we could have hoped for in a perfect island getaway. We hope it won't be too long before we can return!

My wife and I spent our honeymoon at Villa Pisces in April 2010 and absolutely loved the place. We could not have imagined a more perfect vacation. We were warmly greeted at the airport by Peter, the property manager and absolutely blown away when we arrived at the villa. Photos do not do it justice! The accommodations were top notch - fabulous pool, quiet secluded property, beautiful landscaping, pristine beach, and all possible amenities provided for. Villa Pisces is truly a little piece of heaven and we plan on returning whenever possible...Full value and top marks to Sea Feathers! Marc & Tammy

We stayed at this villa in April 2009, and it is awesome, the beach is gorgeous,great for walking, the view is amazing, the pool is superb. We have stayed at numerous villas through out the caribbean, this villa is our favorite. Only downside, the tv reception isn't that great.

Owner response:Theresa and her husband were wonderful guests and are returning in March 2010. The TV reception has now been sorted out. It was an Island problem. This villa will soon have a state of the art flat screen TV too.
