South Sound is a spectacular secluded area of Virgin Gorda, where the only sound
comes from the waves breaking on the reef and your neighbors are turtles and
fish. South Sound Villa is at the end of Mattie Point, which is a small jut of
land extending into the sound. 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 and Bitter End Yacht Club. Just
outside your front door you can swim in the calm waters of the sound protected
by a 5000 foot reef, perfect for snorkeling.
A very special waterfront villa 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.
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. If you’re a little
more adventuresome, take the villa’s rubber boat 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’s sailboard on the Sound.
The Main House
The 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. 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 garden deck, with 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 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 5-ft to 8-ft deep with its own rock
waterfall and lots of tile decks all overlooking South Sound. The pool deck has
6 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 the additional covered deck, which
also has a 50-inch table, four more chairs and an entrance to the lower shower.
Pool Wing
Our new addition has four more bedrooms and two bathrooms in a separate
structure, connected by a bridge to the Main House and overlooking the pool.
The main floor includes the master bedroom area, a second bedroom, a bathroom
with a glass-block enclosed shower, and a covered veranda with chairs, chaise
lounge and tables, overlooking the pool and South Sound.
The master bedroom features a sitting area with rattan queen sleeper sofa,
loveseat and table, 12-foot glass sliders to the veranda, views of South Sound
on three sides and a king size pillow-top bed. The second bedroom is furnished
with a queen pillow-top bed, overlooks the pool and has double French doors
opening to the veranda.
The pool deck bedroom has a queen pillow-top bed, overlooks the pool and deck
and connects to the lower level bathroom and shower.
The top floor bedroom has a queen size pillow-top bed and provides 360 degree
views of South Sound and the mountains that surround the villa. Each bedroom has
its own closet and accessory seating.
Tropical landscaping surrounds both buildings and the pool, with new plantings
continually being added. The villa also has cement driveways/parking area and
perimeter fencing/cattle guard to keep cattle out. |
