Tortola Escape

Our visit to Tortola was one of relaxation and adventure! Being greeted by Jan the owner was warm and friendly and extremely informative. She has lots of knowledge of the island and surrounding areas. We enjoyed our stay at Mermaid Villa with views of Long Bay and surrounding islands. Convenient pool and patio for Al Fresco dining was a plus. Everything one needs in kitchen for in Villa meal preparation and access to laundry facilities. The Villa was spacious and comfortable. Jan was always accessible and helpful with local recommendations! She is a lovely part of this memorable vacation. We will be back to enjoy Mermaid Villa again! Thanks Jan… We ❤️ you!! Rick & Lori

Good location to relax

For us it was a perfect location to unwind and relax. We enjoyed watching the planes fly in and out of Beef Island. We were also able to easily enjoy 5 beaches (via ferries). After trying to see everything we could, we spent our last day enjoying the property’s pool and peaceful location. Jan is a sweet host and we enjoyed hearing her stories. Thanks for sharing your piece of paradise!

Stunning location and views, one-of-kind hospitality

Janet and Leslie are wonderful hosts - welcoming, helpful, interesting and kind. The home was great for our family of four. The kids loved the pool, the pets. The restaurants nearby were fabulous.

Lovely Villa, Delightful Host

Our 6 days at Mermaid Villa were lovely and relaxing. The villa is extremely comfortable and well equiped, overlooking a beautiful beach. It is conveniently close to the airport and several good grocery stores. One thing that truly sets it apart is the owner, Jan Dart, who lives next door and is very responsive. Plus, as a 50 year resident of Tortola she gave us a unique pertsonal perspective on the BVI.

About the host

Hosted by Janet Dart

I have been in the rental business since 1985
but have lived on Little Mountain since 1972.
and after being widowed I started the rental
business. Snorkeling, diving, sailing have been my favorite things
to do, but now I concentrate on my rental business.

Why they chose this property

We chose the location on Little Mountain because it was near the airport. My husband was a pilot and we had a helicopter that we kept right on the property and used it for island hopping, we had heli-pads at some of the restaurants; visited all the beaches and flew to the USVI quite often. Of course now there are many FAA/BVI rules that would prohibit that type of flying these days but we couldn't have picked a nicer spot to live.
Not many polaces have a beach to walk to and an aiport to arrive and depart
tofrom so close. and so convernient

What makes this property unique

The view from Mermaid Villa is spectacular.
You look down on Long Bay Beach which is almost always empty. We do have cruise ship people that visit Long Bay and I find they are quiet, no noisey
music and stay a shor time. There is a reef for snorkeling off to one side and it is quite protected from the Northern swells that occur in the winter months. The road to Long Bay is paved, so you can walk down or drive to the beach. I walk my dogs to
the beach every late afternoon 7 days a week. We have several good restaurants and beaches no more than 10 minutes away, so no long drives at night. We also have one restaurant closeby that offers a shuttle. Trellis Bay nearby offers unique art and gift shops, a small grocery, and several restaurants and bars, . There are ferries to take you to many of the other islands. Nearby East End Village offers you grocery stores,
There are churches just minutes away from Little Mountain. Road Town, our Capital, is just 20 minutes away where you can shop for groceries on a larger scale. Ask about
taking a ferry to Virgin Gorda to seethe baths and other sightseeing areas.
You will want to rent a car f you want to explore Tortola and all its beaches and/or
see all the wonderful views and eat at the unique restaurants for lunch and dinner.
you can arrive by Ferry from St. Thomas (look on line for ferry schedules and make
a reservation) or arrive from Puerto Rico by plane at the Beef Island Airport.
When booking a car, other than at the airport, ask them if they will deliver to Little
Mtn. for your convenience. Askjif you can leave the car at departure parking and if
there are any fees involved.
