We would like to thank David and his family for opening their home for us. Marylin, the property manager was in touch with us well in advance of our arrival to set the sleeping arrangements. Upon our arrival she met us at the villa and gave us the tour. David sent us a welcome packet with clear and detailed instructions. We stayed for 3 nights since our charter was mid-week. The location was perfect--close to the beach and absolutely breathtaking views. Well appointed house with many niceties, well stocked kitchen with high end stove. This was an amazing start to our family and friends vacation. Thank you! We would love to stay at your villa again.

What a beautiful villa! And so close to a beautiful beach. We all loved every minute of our stay! And Marylin was extremely kind and helpful.

We cannot say enough about the house and it’s location. The owner was amazingly helpful in navigating the new Covid world. The house was clean and Marilyn the house manager was super helpful. She arranged a cook for our stay which only added to it. The house is a short walk to Smugglers Cove which is a beautiful beach. I ran almost every day on the roads and felt safe the whole time. The house came stocked with a paddle board, life jacket, games, snorkeling gear and a kayak. And we used it all. We were a party of 9. Four adults and five kids.

Great location for couples or family. Beautiful home and views.

Had a terrific week with 2 families at smugglers lookout. Great house in a great location. No issues. The local beaches there are amazing. Try to get out in the water when you are there. Excellent vacation home base in BVI. Hope to return to paradise sooner than later!

Great place to stay in Tortola with a "Million dollar view". Very nice house, clean and comfortable that gives you "home away from home" feel. Location is bit secluded, but very convenient and close to the one of the best beaches on the island. Great experience overall. Would come back in a snap...

The house is well laid out with incredible views. We would highly recommend this property.

The property is beautiful and the views are incredible. The home was just lovely, very well maintained and cared for, great furnishings and every item that you think you might ever need was there. There's a very short walk to Smuggler's Bay and then you're on the beach! The location was convenient, close to a small grocery store and some nice restaurants. I also can't say enough good things about the owner - he's very easy to work with, prompt in his replies and his caretaker was also very helpful. We can't wait to return!

We all absolutely loved staying in this villa and can't recommend it highly enough. We were 3 couples staying for 3 nights in mid-February. We were met by Marilyn, the property manager, who welcomed us warmly and showed us the home, each room accented with fresh flowers from the garden. The house is very well laid out with large airy rooms, plenty of privacy and yet warm and comfy urging one to sit back, relax and take in the 180 degree views of the sea and the islands. The location was the best I can imagine, being only an easy 5 minute walk to a sandy beach where you can snorkel right off the beach. We ate out our first night but loved the spacious and well-equipped kitchen adjacent to the outdoor dining terrace so preferred to cook for ourselves the rest of our stay - surf and turf- so we didn't have to sacrifice a minute of the views from the beautiful spot. We are each talking about coming back with our individual families, and while the upstairs rooms, (Master and Turtle rooms) are somewhat nicer than the others, all are comfortable and well-organized for guests with plenty of drawer and closet space, good-sized bathrooms with showers and comfortable beds. The owners have put a lot of energy into landscaping the grounds, so that everywhere you look there are little paths, rock walls, potted plants and other tropical delights. This is truly an elegant home, not a cut-rate rental property and you will be lucky if you get to stay here.

Really enjoyed our stay! House is clean, well kept and the views are simply amazing. Until next time! Thanks Dave and Marilyn.

Property a little more secluded than we anticipated, but worked out great. Everything we needed was included! Met people from all over the world at the beach at Smugglers Cove. We were advised against frequenting the beach bar (shack) but fell in love with the owner and his wonderful hospitality. A fun time had by all.

Great Home, very clean, just as described! Roads to get there are a little rough, will suggest a 4 Wheel Drive

Other reviews sum it up for our party of ten (two sets of parents and 6 kids). Perfect setting - High enough on the mountain for a spectacular view but low enough for a short walk to a beautiful beach. House had all the comforts of home...loved the use of the paddle boards and kayak. Snorkeling was really good at the beach. My 17 year old son ran every morning to/on Long Bay Beach and Smugglers Cove. The neighborhood is quiet. We ended up just staying at the house for our four days and enjoying everything it had to offer. We plan to stay here again!

We just got back from staying at this beautiful house. There were seven of us – four adults and three kids. As others have said this house is incredibly well stocked with a paddleboard, kayaks, kitchen tools, etc. Marilyn- the property manager was kind and took her time to show us all around the house the first night and the owners seemed great and were fast to respond to questions. The location was fantastic and was a short walk to the best beach on Tortola. Being close to the west end it was also easy to pick up ferries to other islands. One great thing about the house is that you can see both breathtaking sunrises and beautiful sunsets. Every morning I woke up at 5 AM and sat on the master bedroom balcony looking at the beautiful red tree right outside and listening to the birds, frogs, and roosters. There is an iguana and turtles that live outside in a cage, and every time you turn your head you see a lizard. The owners also have two outdoor cats that live at the house. One is shy and stays away from people but the other one was absolutely awesome. My kids brought the cat inside every opportunity possible and the cat would walk us down to the beach, wait for us, and walk us back. We seriously wanted to take this cat home with us. Also, you can't see any other houses from this house so it feels very secluded and relaxing. We really had a wonderful time in the house. The only reason I gave the house four stars instead of five was that the house does not have central air and although we could keep the bedrooms cool with window air conditioners, in August the living room and kitchen felt like it was about 95° so it could get uncomfortable. If the owners had a window AC unit in the living room it would be absolutely perfect. Again, we went in August so if you go more in high season that shouldn't be an issue. Our favorite things we did in Tortola: (1)Aristocats sailing/ snorkeling trip- Took us snorkeling to four different locations and The crew was amazing and it was easily the best snorkeling of my life. (2) snorkeling and drinking at Soggy Dollar Bar (Jost Van Dyke) (3) The baths at Virgin Gorda (4) dinner and watching the sunset at Bananakeet Overall, If you go to the BVI's I think you'll love this house.

Just returned from a great 10 days at Smuggler's Lookout. Our family of 6, 2 adults and 4 kids ages 13, 12, 8, 6, enjoyed every minute of our stay. The views are amazing and the house had everything we needed. The kitchen is well stocked, there was a good amount of surf boards/boogie boards, kayak, and paddle board, and the kids had many adventures in the tree house! Smugglers Cove beach was great. The snorkeling right at Smugglers cove was enjoyed by all. We also enjoyed having Long Bay beach practically to ourselves. Plenty of restaurants near by, but we probably enjoyed grilling out and enjoying the deck views from the house more. We ventured out for a day sail to Norman Island and the Indians on Day Dream. The crew on Day Dream was great, the food was good, and the snorkeling was great! Dave and Carolina went out of their way to accommodate us, and we are grateful for their sharing a piece of paradise with our family.

A short walk to an amazing beach. I hidden home on the west end of Tortola. Views of Jost Van Dyke. Absolutely stunning place. We will certainly book this again.

We’ve been to the BVI many times but this villa is BY FAR our favorite. The location is one of the best in the area as you have incredible views, privacy, yet you are only a short walk to Smugglers Cove. Not only was the villa and location fantastic, but the price was the best we found as well. With the best villa, best location, and best price we have experienced, we won’t be looking elsewhere for our future visits.

The house is beautiful, and has everything you need for an amazing vacation. We especially loved the 2 outdoor showers, the outdoor seating area was perfect for coffee in the morning and dinner in the evenings, not to mention the views are outstanding! We will definitely come back to Smuggler's Lookout!

Everything was wonderful. The house, its unbelievable views (from every room), Smuggler's Cove...all fantastic. We loved having use of the bikes and other toys that come with the rental. The nearby beach...the most beautiful we've ever seen. Our family's goal was to disconnect from the outside world and that's exactly what we did. We didn't do much exploring (other than surfing Josiah's bay - fabulous), because our normal lives are over-regimented - and there was lots to do near the house. Outstanding. Owner Dave had lots of great tips for local dining, activities and house manager Jon was super helpful as well - he met our family at the ferry and drove us to our car rental (Jerry's) & then to the house. Even made a dinner reservation for us on our first night - nice touch! If you're looking for a true escape, look no further. Hope to return again!

No words can describe the beauty of the view from the spacious decks outside your incredible home. Your home was so much more than what it was described to be, we absolutely loved it. The bulk of our time on our four day stay was spent at Smugglers Cove. Smuggles Cove is the most beautiful beach we have ever seen. We snorkeled both ends and it was amazing. Soper's Hole is very nice and we had a lovely dinner at Sugar Mill, Sebastian's and Long Beach. Loved the cat, seriously considered taking her home with us.
