St. Bernards Hill House

Our luxury full service estate in Tortola, the British Virgin Islands, is surrounded within a lush oasis of Royal Palms.

St. Bernard’s Hill House provides an amazing 300-degree bird’s eye view of the British (BVI) and U.S Virgin Islands. Its lofty private hill top location invites cool trade winds to sweep across the generous verandahs, celebrating pampered outdoor island living in style.

This private 8-acre, full service, all inclusive unique tropical paradise is truly an island within an island.

Eclectic, pleasing décor from around the world grace this unique villa, with antique pieces, original Caribbean artwork, white gauzy curtains blowing in the breeze, all adding to it’s charm and natural beauty.

THE COLONIAL MAIN HOUSE
St. Bernard’s spacious main pavilion comprises the richly decorated Great Room, a Dining Room that seats 10, a professional Kitchen, and an air-conditioned Study with TV/DVD and Office Facilities. Arched doorways open out to a wonderful deep covered veranda, which span three sides of this pavilion, overlooking the Caribbean and Atlantic’s blue majesty dotted with green islands and cay's. Various seating and alfresco dining areas are scattered around the shady terrace, ready for gatherings, cocktails or a game of chess.

On the lee side is a bar and cushioned seating for watching the big flat screen TV. The main pavilion also houses the large master king suite.

MASTER KING SUITE
This sequestered air conditioned/fully screened suite offers a carved mahogany four-poster bed, with luxurious linens and West Indian furnishings. Screened French doors lead to the veranda and a cool outdoor private terrace with comfortable chaise lounges for two.
There is a spacious en suite bathroom with double vanity, big tiled shower and freestanding bathtub; a walk in closet adjoins the bathroom, with plentiful storage and luxury bath robes for your use. On the south side of the Main Pavilion is a manicured lawn with spacious terrace, overlooking the yachts below at Sopers Hole.

ORIENTAL COTTAGE
From the main entrance of the Main Pavilion, a walkway meanders through the lush gardens to the Oriental Cottage, tucked just far enough away from the main pavilion to provide romantic privacy. This air-conditioned cottage features a king bed with luxurious linens, a bath with large tiled shower and a separate W.C.
Amenities include coffee and tea making facilities with refrigerator, a flat screen TV/DVD, and Ipod Docking Station.
The spacious hardwood veranda that wraps around two sides of the cottage is furnished with comfortable loungers so you can read and relax in privacy and enjoy the spectacular views.

                        This private 8-acre, full service, all inclusive unique tropical paradise is truly an island within an island. Quiet pristine beaches are only minutes away by either car or meandering shady walks. There is so much to see and do, here are some examples: TORTOLA Some of the best surf beaches and snorkeling spots can be found on the island, making them easily accessible from the Villa, one of the most secluded beaches in the Virgin Islands is a few minutes away from St. Bernards. These along with amazing scenery, traditional Caribbean restaurants and duty free shopping, make Tortola the best place from which to base your vacation. JOST VAN DYKE Jost Van Dyke has a lot to offer. Stop off at the picture postcard island of Sandy Spit, swim ashore from your boat and explore this unique tiny island with its white sands and crystal clear warm waters. White Bay is home of the ‘Soggy Dollar’ beach bar, inventor of the famous ‘painkiller’ rum cocktail. Sailors are known to swim ashore with their dollars in their pockets, hence the name. At the other end of the bay is ‘Ivan’s Stress Free Bar’. The interior is decorated with millions of shells, and if you are lucky, you can spend the evening jamming with Ivan and listening to his stories of all the celebrities that have visited his bar. Have a look at the photos of Ivan with Kenny Chesney and Keith Richards on the wall. Great Habour is the home of ‘Foxy’s Beach Bar’, world famous and often in the top 5 of the best places to spend New Years Eve. This laid-back beach bar has great food, especially the BBQ night, and if you turn up at happy hour, you may get to see and listen to Foxy himself and be entertained by his witty anecdotes about the islands. PETER ISLAND A short trip makes Peter Island the ideal place to visit on a day out. Swim in the warm water, snorkel the reefs or visit the world famous ‘Peter Island’ resort with its powder white palm fringed beaches. The Spa is not to be missed, enjoy a massage whilst listening to the crashing waves and relax in the privacy of the hot tub overlooking the palms. For the more energetic, you can walk the whole loop of the island, and reward yourself afterwards with a cocktail from the beach bar and restaurant, or maybe a little something from the excellent boutique. NORMAN ISLAND A must see are the ‘Caves’ where real treasure was found. It is said that the book ‘Treasure Island’ was inspired by Norman Island. There are hundreds of varieties of tropical fish and many sea turtles to be seen here. The nearby rock formation called the ‘Indians’ is a fantastic dive site. VIRGIN GORDA Virgin Gorda is the second largest island in the group and encompasses the area known as the ‘North Sound’. This is a water sports enthusiast dream with ideal conditions for Water skiing, Wake boarding, Kite surfing, and Kids Tubing, not to mention the variety of Snorkeling. Snorkel around the sunken 17th Century cannons and ships anchor, with the good chance of seeing Eagle Rays, Octopus, Nurse Sharks and Sea Turtles, along with the numerous colourful tropical fish. The beaches are very secluded, and with their powder white sands, will appeal to sun worshippers and shell seekers alike all with the backdrop of Richard Branson’s ‘Necker Island.’ Why not celebrate with a meal at one of the beach side restaurants. The Bitter End Yacht Club has local music, and a first class sailing centre. Saba Rock, built on a small island, was once owned by the treasure hunter Burt Kilbride. It has a museum showing some of his great finds from various shipwrecks. You can even buy the gold and silver doubloons to take home with you. A nice night out for families, there is a great kids menu and an outside aquarium full of fish, lobster, moray eels and conch – for viewing only, not to eat! ANEGADA Anegada, lies 15 miles north of Virgin Gorda, and due to the large Horseshoe Reef and giant coral heads, can only be negotiated by experienced sailors, this makes it an idyllic escape. Its highest point is only about 28 feet above sea level, earning it the name ‘the drowned land’. The whole island can easily be toured in a day by taking a ride with one of the friendly taxi drivers or by bicycle. You can see the pink flamingoes in their natural habitat, wild donkey’s and cows, and then stop off to snorkel with the sea turtles at loblolly bay. Keen fisherman can try their hand at fly-fishing. A visit to Anegada would not be complete without sampling the delicacy the island is famous for. Freshly caught giant spiny lobsters are cooked to order by the islands chefs. An experience not to be missed, enjoy your meal under a blanket of stars with your feet in the sand and a tropical island cocktail. Accessible from St’ Bernard’s Hill house by ferry or helicopter, Anegada is an island not to be missed. ...morecollapse

                        Hello Chris and Jo: Yes we made it home safely, albeit at 1:00 am. I don’t think I ever saw 1:00 am the entire time I was in Tortola. I just want to tell you what a nice job you, Jo and your team did in hosting our family and Kelsey at your St. Bernard’s Hill House. Wow! Neither Mary nor I had ever experienced that level of service and facility before. Your team truly made a difference in our vacation. When Mary’s mom asked me how the trip went and if Mary enjoyed it, I said “ You wouldn’t believe it. Mary experienced her best vacation ever and did not lift a finger the entire time.” “ in fact, none of us did!” After this year with our business, we truly needed that vacation. Trust me! We will be back! Again thanks for the hospitality, the great food, the fantastic facility, your guide service, your seamanship in the use of your boat, and all the great service by your staff. You and Jo are truly professionals in what you do. We all are most impressed. I wish you good luck with the upcoming new year. If you happen to come to the states and down this way, we would be delighted to show you a part of this country that you have not seen before. Please call us. It would be a pleasure to see you once again. Again, thanks for a delightful vacation. Best Regards,

                        Chris and Jo, Thanks so much for your hospitality over the last week. We had a blast. Thanks to you guys and the staff, St. Bernard’s Hill house is a magnificent vacation destination. It fit our family needs perfectly. We can’t stop talking about the location of the house and the magnificent view from every direction . The owner is a fortunate man to own such a beautiful home. The service you and the staff provided was superb. The dinners Jo prepared were by far the best we had on the island. We very much look forward to re- upping same time this year, if it can be worked out. Since I’m a workout nut, my only suggestion would be to add a concept 2 rowing machine and a spin bike to the workout room, otherwise, things are perfect the way they are. Thanks again to both of you. You guys made the vacation complete for our family. Best regards.

                      Why the Owner Chose Belmont Estates:
                      St. Bernards Hill House was purchased in 2007 by its current owners. The owners live in England and chose the British Virgin Islands for their second home as they vacationed here when they were children. They fell in love with the property due to its amazing views and close proximity to Smugglers Cove and Long Bay Beach. Belmont Estates is a safe, private haven suitable for couples or families but with easy access to shops, water activities and entertainment.

                      St. Bernards Hill House offers outstanding views, privacy and ease of access to amenities. The difference with St. Bernards Hill House is that it is a FULL SERVICE villa. You can be as pampered as little or as much as you like! Enjoy full housekeeping service, freshly prepared meals, boat day trips and evening cocktails.
