If you’re looking for a beachside escape in Virgin Gorda, you can’t beat Beachcomber Villa’s exceptional spot directly on Mahoe Beach. Steps away from powdery sands and crystalline waters, the villa offers spectacular views out over the ocean which, keen snorkelers will be pleased to note, hosts a reef filled with colourful fish.

Courtesy of spacious rooms and high vaulted ceilings, Beachcomber Villa has an airy and open feel — perfect for allowing delicious sea breezes to drift through and cool the rooms. The clever, open design of the living, dining and kitchen area ensures guests can enjoy socialising to their heart's content, whether they’re watching a film, sitting at the dining area, or sampling local delights in the kitchen. With sleek worktops, a handy breakfast bar and plenty of modern amenities, the kitchen is kitted out with all you need to try your hand at new local dishes or whip up your go-to favourites.

It’s not only the interiors that are dressed to beguile guests. From the large verandas complete with al fresco dining areas to the gorgeous curved pool, the outdoor space has much to captivate. After soaking up the sun on a poolside lounger, or perhaps enjoying a nap on the hammock, plunge into the pool to cool off — there’s a shallow end for younger guests to join you too. If saltier waters are calling, a private path alongside the pool leads to the beach.

Perfect for large families and friends, there are five bedrooms at Beachcomber, which are spread across two buildings. The main pavilion hosts three suites, two with king-sized beds and one with three twins that can be made up as a king and a twin. The other two rooms are located in the guest house, one with a king-sized bed, the other with two twins, which can be made up as a king, and a trundle for young children. All rooms have an ensuite with both an indoor and outdoor shower, not to mention some incredible views.

Spaciously designed and spread across the ground floor, the villa is accessible for guests in wheelchairs or with reduced mobility.
