Floating out in the sea of Cane Garden Bay and glancing back behind you, a vista of colourful villas decorate the mountainous hillside. One house stands out from the rest, sitting only 50ft above the water with its unique mauve-coloured roof comprised of seven turrets. Presented by Villas of Tortola, the beauty inside this enigmatic-looking property uncovers an elegant retreat for a seaside holiday, appropriately named Seven Peaks.
Secluded down a private driveway lined with tall tropical palms, the home is surrounded by meticulously maintained gardens featuring purple Bougainvillea, creeping vines, and an array of local fruit trees.
Seven Peaks accommodates six guests in three separate buildings, all enabling the cooling breeze to travel in from the bay. The interior boasts contemporary Caribbean character with classic wicker furniture and unique decor, accompanied by colourful artwork some of which is painted by the villa’s owner.
The first building opens to the fully-enclosed kitchen area, with modern appliances and large closet pantries to stock and prepare for your favourite meals. As an added touch, a variety of cookbooks from acclaimed BVI chefs and restaurants are at your convenience to expand your culinary skills and try local cuisine.
The kitchen opens to a beautiful covered alfresco dining area with a table seating six, perfect to enjoy dinner while looking out to the turquoise waters below. Attached is an enclosed two-level living room with an indoor lounging area and a balcony where two can enjoy a morning coffee and listen to the sound of the gentle waves.
Each of the three bedrooms offer astonishing views where you can gaze from your bed and witness Cane Garden Bay come to life, waking with dawn.
The master suite is located in the second building, offering a grand sleeping experience with a king-size bed, attached to an expansive double-sink bathroom. Enjoy the private balcony, or engage your thoughts in writing memoirs of your travels at the office space overlooking the ocean.
In building number three are two additional guest bedrooms, sharing a large bathroom and veranda, one containing a queen bed and the other with two twins. All of the bedrooms are air conditioned with cosy goose-down feather pillows to ensure guests a relaxing sleep.
Continuing outside is an expansive terrace with a gas grill, loungers, and additional alfresco dining spots. For early risers, a dip in the swimming pool is a refreshing way to wake up, lay back, and float as you witness the dark morning transform to light and the moon above disappear.
Down a wooden staircase is private access to a secluded part of the Cane beach, a favourite spot to paddle-board.
From the property is an unrivalled view of the Cane community, with its colourful beach-side restaurants and coconut palms, and views of the ocean extending out of the bay to the neighbouring islands of Jost Van Dyke and St. John perched on the horizon.
A stay at Seven Peaks offers peaceful accommodations in privacy, with unbeatable access to the beach, amenities, and nightlife, as the central hub of Cane is only a short stroll away.
During the day, enjoy the white sandy shore, gentle ocean, beach bars, and eclectic souvenir shops. Freshen up at the villa and then walk or drive back to the lively area as it kicks up a notch at night offering an array of nightly music and entertainment.
For an energised vacation in deluxe accommodations, Seven Peaks is the perfect villa for a family or friends to absorb the tropical setting and welcoming atmosphere of Tortola’s most popular beach.
