A very special private waterfront Virgin Gorda villa rental on its 
own private peninsula, this  6-bedroom home sits at the end of 
Mattie Point, with water on three sides and Gorda Peak behind.  
South Sound is a spectacular secluded area of Virgin Gorda, where 
you hear the waves breaking on the reef and your neighbors are 
pelicans, turtles and fish. To one side you'll see the Hurricane 
Hole and to the other is Great Hill.  On the far side of Great Hill 
are fun places to visit such as Biras Creek, Saba Rock, and Bitter 
End Yacht Club, all on Virgin Gorda. Swim in the infinity edge pool 
overlooking the sound or snorkel off the private dock to some of the 
best underwater viewing on the island of Virgin Gorda.  If you're a 
little more adventuresome, take the villa rubber dinghy out to the 
5000 foot reef for more snorkeling fun or motor over to the 
Hurricane Hole for exploration.  Thrill seekers may even want to try 
out the villa sailboard on South Sound.

The Main House

This Virgin Gorda rental vacation villa has been designed to let the 
ocean breezes and sunlight surround you.  The Mexican clay tile main 
floor is a free flowing area, including a living room with a built-
in CD entertainment system, dining room and fully equipped kitchen 
with a seating bar for drinks.  Double French doors along both front 
and back of the villa open to beautiful ocean views of Virgin 
Gorda.  A 12 foot wide covered front deck stretching the entire 
length of the house is a great place for a casual lunch, a romantic 
candlelit dinner or your afternoon nap in the hammock or chaise.  
The  8 foot wide garden deck, with a stainless steel propane BBQ, 
will give you all the sun you want.  Even the main floor bathroom 
extends into the outdoors, through sliding glass doors to the glass 
block enclosed double shower.

The U-shaped kitchen is equipped with a large side-by-side ice maker 
refrigerator, microwave, dishwasher, and electric self cleaning 
range.  A complete set of kitchen utensils, small appliances and 
cookware is provided as well as glasses/dinnerware for 16. We also 
maintain a large selection of spices and basic condiments/supplies 
for your use.

Upstairs, you will find two bright and cheery bedrooms with walk-in 
closets, seating for two and overhead fans. One bedroom has a king 
size pillow top bed, and the other has two twins.  The bathroom’s 
oversized shower has two sliding windows, which can be recessed into 
the wall, providing a great view of South Sound and the mountains of 
Virgin Gorda that surround it. A bridge, open to the first floor, 
connects the bedrooms.  Extra guests can sleep on the queen sleeper 
sofa in the living room.

The Pool

The horizon edge 12,000 gallon pool is 5ft to 7ft deep with its own 
rock waterfall and lots of tile decks all overlooking South Sound. 
The pool deck has 8 chaise lounges and a 50 inch table with four 
chairs.  If you want to lounge near the pool, but be out of the sun, 
enjoy our covered deck, which also has a 50 inch table, four more 
chairs and an entrance to the lower shower.   Enjoy a drink at our 
covered poolside wet bar

The South Sound Road, which leads to the villa, connects to the main 
Virgin Gorda government road, running between the Valley and Gun 
Creek. The South Sound Road is a one lane island road about 1 mile 
long, which goes through pasture land with cattle and is level and 
flat and easy to drive on. There is one cattle gate, which you may 
need to open and close. The cattle are peaceful and will cause you 
no harm. If they happen to be in your way, just slowly pass by them.

We recommend a rental car be secured for your transportation while 
on Virgin Gorda, with several different types of rental vehicles 
available. We can arrange a rental for you and have the agency we 
work with pick you up at your point of entry. They will have the 
villa key, as well as a map to guide you to the villa. You can view 
the cars they have available by going to the link near the bottom of 
the page. Select the car you want and we will reserve it for you and 
get you a discount. Contact us for details.

The villa has a guest book for your comments, as well as booklets 
with information on dining spots, maps, and information on what to 
do on Virgin Gorda, plus books on the history, flora and fauna of 
Virgin Gorda.
