I had a wonderful time staying in BVI. The apartment was conveniently located to things I would walk to and perfect size for me to stay. I was there for 3 weeks and Nelle and her sister Ella made me feel welcome and part of their family. I look forward to staying again in this beautiful island and apartment.

Great for what we needed!

Location was great! We were only there for one night before taking a sailing trip so it was perfect for us.

Wonderful hosts!

Thank you for the wonderful stay. The location was convenient for our trip out from the Nanny Cay Marina the next day. We did have a little bit of trouble with the front door pad, but nothing that wasn’t we couldn’t get help with. Ella was wonderful!

Good apartment close to marina

Good location, about 5 mins walk from Nanny Cay entrance, but takes about 12 minutes to walk to the beach. Good amenities including air con in bedrooms, plenty of towels, good shower. Host Nelle and her sister were very friendly, good communication and happy to help. A nice place to have a base in BVI spring regatta

Perfect location to Nanny Cay Marina.

Nelle and Elle were so friendly and helpful. Quiet balcony to relax. Nice comfortable bed, beach towels provided. It was nice to have a kichenette to cook a few things. The blender was an added bonus. Thank you for ice, , frozen waters , tea, coffee. It was nice to be away from busy touristy places. And nice to relax after a busy sailing trip. I felt very welcomed and taken care of. I will definitely stay again.

Awesome Host

Nelle was very helpful, very thorough in directions. Part of our group made it in to stay & some did not; they even went to dinner with her. We paid extra for a larger group & she gave us a partial refund; which she did not have to. I definitely would recommend her as a host

Sun-kissed Apts - BVI

We were satisfied with the spacious and clean apartment; however, there wasn't a lot of seating in the living room. There was off-street parking albeit tight corridors. The apartment has no oven to cook on, just a small toaster oven. Otherwise, it was pretty well stocked including enough bath towels. I want to mention that I received a 75 charge to replace a sheet because of a "cigarette burn" in the sheet; although no one smokes!

Read the property description carefully. We did not realize that the TWO bedroom unit is sold by the occupancy and not as a complete unit. I have to take some responsibility for not investigating this properly. We were charged double for our stay as we were a group of four and not two. Additionally, I detest the way Expedia, vrbo and the way they run interference on payment and direct communication with owners. We were willing to pay more for the misunderstanding but unable to get past the internal firewalls of the booking entities and ended up paying way too much for this place.

Perfect for what I needed. Priced right. You have to like the sound of roosters in the morning, which I do. It’s very spacious. I would recommend it.
