lovely house grounds and pool.

Leanne was the height of friendly professionalism and Sylvia on the ground in BVI took great care of us.

we would return in a heartbeat

Great trip. I hope the bvi continues to recover from those devastating hurricanes. I was surprised how the impact was still so visible.

The property was just as pictured and the views were amazing, with lovely beaches nearby. Leanne, the owner was incredibly responsive and accessible. She went above and beyond to ensure that our our travel plans were seamless and every detail was attended to. The villa itself had everything one could possibly need so packing was very easy.

Yes, the island has suffered great devastation from the hurricanes last fall, but the people there are incredibly resilient and efforts to rebuild are well underway. There is no tv in most places, and the roads are a bit rough, but we were not looking to vacation in a place that was just like home. The beaches and snorkeling are still amazing, and while there are just a handful or restaurants open, we had no trouble finding great food. We had some of our best meals via some of the roadside food huts set up by locals; for anyone interested in experiencing authentic Caribbean cuisine.

The island feels safe and this is a very important aspect for me when I travel, and I don't care for very touristy destinations. This is a place where you can learn about other people and what they are going through. That being said, tourism

is their main industry and in the aftermath of two category 5 hurricanes, they are very welcoming and grateful to see people return to Tortola. For us, being alone or just in the company of a few others on a spectacular beach, knowing we were contributing to the relief effort in some small way, while staying at an incredibly gorgeous villa, made it an absolutely perfect vacation.

As I drove through Belmont and arrived at Villa Sirenetta for my sixth stay, I felt like I was home again. I knew this year would be different, as the island is still recovering from the effects of Hurricanes Irma and Maria. Villa Sirenetta was blessed to be spared major damage.

In the months prior to my arrival, Leanne went above and beyond to keep me informed on island happenings such as significant changes to my travel plans (e.g., taking a ferry from St. Thomas into Road Town because the West End ferry terminal is not open); what restaurants are open; progress on having electricity restored; provisioning; etc. She also made sure everything at the Villa was ready, including the pool and WiFi. Her insight removed any worries I may have had.

You've probably heard the saying "the more things change, the more they stay the same." Yes, you will see damage to buildings. But repairs are being made daily. Trees fell or were stripped of their leaves during the storms. But there is already new growth. While some businesses remain closed, others are reopening all the time. But, as I sat on the upper porch each morning enjoying the sun and a cup of coffee, I found peace in the fact that Villa Sirenetta was still my dream home away from home and no matter how much had changed since my last visit, the view of the beautiful turquoise water was still the same.

Nigel's Beach Bar greets you upon entrance to the always lovely Smuggler's Cove. There's still plenty to do in Cane Garden Bay (this year I rang in my 40th birthday by taking a paddle boarding lesson from Lee, the owner of Breeze Paddle Surf!). Wandering around Road Town you'll find plenty of shops and restaurants with open doors. The BVI is most definitely open for business! The joyous spirit of the people who live and work on Tortola hasn't changed and they will welcome you with open arms. Sit by the Villa's pool and nearby beaches or plan a more action-packed holiday. There's plenty to see and do. And Villa Sirenetta is the perfect home base.

Leanne and Sylvia, thank you for another amazing week. You both went out of your way to make sure I felt safe and comfortable. Sylvia's friendship has come to mean so much over the years and chatting with her is something I always look forward to. I can't thank you enough. Counting down the days until next May! Cheers!

We just finished an amazing week at Villa Sirenetta. We were a little nervous about our traveling arrangements since we were bringing our 6 month old with us, but it worked out perfectly. Leanne, the owner, was extremely helpful and patient in answering all of our questions. Syliva, the local property manager, was also a lot of help. We ordered groceries to the house and she was there to take delivery and put everything away. She also comes midweek to clean and do laundry, which was a huge perk for us.

The house itself is beautiful, well maintained, and very spacious -- with 4 adults and a baby, we had more than enough room. The bedding was very comfortable and the views are incredible from every room in the house. The pool was perfect for our family, and probably our favorite part of the house. It's plenty big, the water is warm, and there are a few small spots where you can get some shade. We could have had a great week had we spent the whole time in the pool. The house also comes well stocked -- plenty of cooking supplies if you choose to eat in, lots of beach towels, beach chairs, cooler, toiletries, etc.

We also really enjoyed being in West End. Some of the roads are a bit of an adventure, but I thought it was easy to get around once you got the hang of it. We especially loved nearby Smuggler's Cove Beach. It's a relaxing, secluded beach with a lot of character. It also has some nice shaded areas so you don't have to sit directly in the sun the whole time.

I would highly recommend Villa Sirenetta to anyone visiting Tortola. If you don't enjoy yourself here, you're doing something wrong!
