Tortola Vacation Rental villa: Tortola

SPECIAL: Stay 7/Pay 6 or Stay 10/Pay 8 when you book after 2/12/09 and travel before 12/18/09

This charming and historic Caribbean cottage is only steps away from famous Cane Garden Bay's sugar-white sand and turquoise waters!

Its simple facade belies its beautifully furnished interior: two large, fully air-conditioned rooms offer a wonderful new kitchen with stainless steel appliances, a dining area and sitting area, cable TV, DVD and CD player, a powder room, and a spacious queen bedroom/bath suite in the rear.

A 9'-arched doorway affords a view from the master suite to the white sand and aqua ocean directly across the street. This bedroom suite also opens to a very private enclosed deck featuring a wet bar & secluded area for relaxing.

Thick plastered stone walls keep the villa hushed and serene inside. Indonesian and Caribbean teak furnishings, locally-crafted light sconces, artful tiling throughout, and deluxe finishing touches crowned by stunning hand carved wooden doors make Shans Bungalow an excellent accommodation for a couple or small family - but the true allure of Shans is its location right on the eastern side of famous Cane Garden Bay, known as the tranquil side.

You can walk just across the road to get your toes in white sand and crystal clear ocean, or take a leisurely stroll down the seaside road to snorkel rentals and watersports, dining, dancing to live music at Myett's and Quito's, to Bobby's Grocery and varied small shops. Stop to chat with the local folks under the palms and shady seagrape trees, and watch the yachts sail into the blue distance. Once you stay at Shans, you'll want to return again and again; this special place will beckon wherever you are.

Please note: Christmas/New Years require a 10-night minimum and Thanksgiving rentals require a 7-night minimum and rents at the 2 bedroom rate.

Security Deposit $200.
