vacation rental description

This beautiful, spacious, open and airy two bedroom villa is located on the north coast of Tortola, BVI.  Perched on the side of a valley overlooking Little Bay Beach, Guana Island, and the Caribbean Sea, Magic Castle is surrounded by a 2 1/2 acre gated estate of tropical gardens and natural woodlands.  Fruit and vegetables grow on the property in season.  

The Master Bedroom Pavilion is separated from the rest of the villa by a sparkling 8x30 ft. swimming pool and is wrapped by a covered deck with hammock and seating area enjoying the magnificent view. Screen sliders on opposite sides of the room allow the balmy Caribbean breezes to pass across the pool and right over the King size bed in the middle of the large room.  Adjacent is the Hot Tub, romantic under the sun or stars.

The entrance opens into the living and dining areas and has a well equipped gourmet kitchen. Doors open all around onto the garden-edged pool terrace and wide covered al fresco dining deck. High vaulted ceilings throughout add to the expansive feeling.

A second bedroom and bath is located in the main house where either twins or a king bed can be requested. Relaxing and comfortable, this magical setting is perfect for couples or small families. Children over 8 years old welcome.

 

The nearly private beach is a few minutes walk downhill. Many excellent restaurants, grocery stores, shopping and water sports activities are within 10 minutes drive.

A 4 wheel drive vehicle is recommended. Most rental cars are 4 wheel drive.

The owner/manager of Magic Castle and her two quiet and endearing dogs live in an apartment below the villa behind a curtain of flowering vines. No part of the villa can be seen from there, assuring your privacy. She's there if you have questions.

traveler reviews for this british virgin islands villa rental

The Magic Castle really is the perfect name for this Villa !!!

Susan (Boston, MA)
Review submitted: April 7, 2013   Date of arrival: March 16, 2013

Get out your thesaurus and find all of synonyms for magical and gorgeous and perfect and then you’ll have the description for The Magic Castle Villa. This spectacular home is tucked into a hillside with the most beautiful views on the island. It is walking distance to a pristine beach. It is equipped with everything you could ask for and Eva’s knowledge of the island and recommendations for day trips and restaurants are fantastic.

My husband, daughter (age 28) and I spent a week here and we can’t think of anything we’d change. We were hoping for a location that would provide secluded and relaxing atmosphere with a local feel. We wanted to avoid crowds and cruise ships. The Magic Castle Villa could not have been more ideal. We had breakfast every morning on the deck overlooking Little Bay surrounded by the lush vegetation on the property. After a few days of relaxing, we rented a car and explored every corner of the island. At the conclusion of each adventure, we returned to the Magic Castle and said, “This is the best spot on the island.”

I read in another review that Eva gives you complete privacy, but is always available if you have a question about the island or the house. I wasn’t sure how that could be possible when I read that, but after staying there, I found the same to be true. We cannot wait to return to the Magic Castle!!
Our favorite restaurants for dinner were BananaKeet and Brandywine. Both exceptional. Go to the Tamarind Club for Sunday brunch, too. It’s a must.

Could anyone write a review without mentioning Rocket and Stanley? I don’t think so. Rocket lives at the Magic Castle. She’s a sweet, shy female who receives daily visits by neighbor dog, Stanley, an outgoing and very friendly dog. For anyone who misses their dogs while on vacation, Rocket and Stanley will fill the void. They started every day off on the right foot!

We’ll be back as soon as possible. The Magic Castle is a glorious place.

Outstanding!

Rob (Calgary, Alberta, Canada)
Review submitted: February 26, 2013   Date of arrival: May 10, 2012

This was the first time staying on land on Tortola, having only sailed the islands many times in the past. What a perfect way to find ones land legs again and enjoy a king size bed. Perfect for two with privacy and beautiful gardens to look out over or walk through. The views to the north and Guana Island are spectacular The dogs, Rocket and Stanley were a good bit of company and added a touch of security with the odd bark. Eva is the perfect hostess and understands the needs of her very particular guests. The beach below the house is perfection and provides for a great bit of needed exercise too and from although we did drive to it on occasion. I have been hesitant about talking this experience up too much as it will encourage others to seek it out. Thank you Eva, we would like to return.

Recommended for: age 55+, sight seeing, romantic getaway

Owners response: That is a gorgeous beach, isn't it! And hardly anyone else ever there! So glad you were happy, folks!

Perfect Getaway

MN Travelers (Minnesota)
Review submitted: December 21, 2012   Date of arrival: December 6, 2012

We absolutely loved our stay at the Magic Castle! We hate to let out the secret, but Little Bay in our opinion is the best location on Tortola. We had the beach to ourselves almost every day, and on the busiest day, there were six other people.

We had the villa to ourselves; however, it would be perfect for two couples, which is what we are planning for next year. Eva went above and beyond as a host by giving us recommendations on day trips, dinners and gelato. We were lucky to be around when the gardner was working and he cut down coconuts and opened them for us to drink the water!

The villa is stocked with everything you could think of, including beach accessories, kitched utensils, and even a cell phone for your use while on the island.

We loved our daily visits from Rocket and Stanley, they couldn't be nicer dogs!

Overall, we loved Magic Castle, and hope to return in 2013.
