Wonderful location, great outdoor living

We have just returned from ten highly enjoyable days in Moonlight Villa, spent with our two adult children and teenage daughter, five of us in all. First things first: the views from the deck are so spectacular we were happy to spend hours out there in the sun. Even after driving all over the island, we rarely saw better vistas. The deck and pool area provide a huge outdoor space, with plenty of comfortable furniture. The inside is spacious too - two huge bedrooms and the third a good size, all very well furnished, and a decent living/dining/kitchen area with every convenience. The layout of the accommodation is good, and we never felt as though we were on top of each other.
The arrival procedure went exactly as promised - even though it was Christmas Day! As we headed to the baggage claim, the owner's representative was the first person we saw, and she waited patiently while we sorted out a glitch with the rental car and picked up our bags. She then drove ahead of us to the villa, pointing out sights, shopping areas, etc. using a walkie-talkie she had given us. The drive is quite an experience itself! The villa is in a gated community on the north side of the island, and after seeing some other parts of the island we appreciated the security and seclusion of the location. Sherri then sat with us for quite some time - again, on Christmas Day - using a road map to point out where the good beaches and restaurants are.
The villa has everything you might need, even down to surround sound in the pool area. On the one really wet day we had, the satellite TV was greatly appreciated.
Perhaps the most spectacular moment came about 8 o'clock on the first really clear night we had. The moon rose slowly above Tortola, looking huge over the sea, then shimmered over the waves for the rest of the night. After this experience, we knew how the villa got its name!
Great place! You'll enjoy it. We most certainly did.
