A very special private waterfront Virgin Gorda villa for rent 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, all on
Virgin Gorda. 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 of Virgin Gorda. If you're a little more adventuresome,
take the villa rubber dinghy 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 sailboard on South
Sound.

This Virgin Gorda rental vacation villa has been designed to let the
ocean breezes and sunlight surround you. The Mexican clay tile main

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 wide garden deck,
with a stainless steel propane BBQ, will give you all the sun you

harm. If they happen to be in your way, just slowly pass by them.
