Frenchmans LookoutFrenchmans Cay, West End, TortolaNo detail has been spared in this airy and spacious two-story Carolina-style home. Originally an infamous pirates' lookout because of its commanding and sweeping views, its perch above Sir Francis Drake Channel is caressed by constant tradewinds. The views are incomparable and have been called "the best in the Caribbean." Two electronic security gates lead into this completely private luxury estate.
The main level offers the elegantly-furnished Great Room, the brand-new gourmet kitchen and grand dining room with banquet table, and an air-conditioned queen bedroom/bath suite. Upstairs on the upper level are four more very large bedrooms and three tiled baths, plus a well-outfitted office. Every room on both levels (including all bathrooms) opens via double mahogany French doors onto the generous wraparound decks, showcasing a captivating parade of sail and power yachts passing by. All of the five high-ceilinged, romantic bedrooms offer air-conditioning; few guests find it necessary. Classic elegance is defined by the simple but sumptuous furnishings: terra cotta floors with woven seagrass mats, plush chairs and sofas, antiques and fine art.
Everchanging sea views are framed by mahogany double french doors throughout. Just outside is the 50-foot freshwater pool with a shallow cove for children, surrounded by sun decks. Adjoining the pool is an alfresco bar and gas barbeque bordered by dramatic rock outcroppings and lush flowering gardens, and specimen trees shading a gazebo - the aromas of gardenia and jasmine float through the breeze!
The estate's professionally-trained staff is discreet and detail-oriented. A private chef is also available for your holiday pleasures at an additional cost. This impressive home, set on a historic site and brought with flair and charm into the 21st century, will please those who demand the best - 300 degree blue-water views are punctuated by some 12 islands and cays seen from the breeze-swept shady verandahs, providing you with memorable days and romantic nights...five stars!
With advance notice, your list of groceries and drinks can be stocked at Frenchmans Lookout for your arrival. A professional chef may also be engaged for your dining pleasure. Beauty treatments, massage and spa services may also be arranged at the villa. Please let us know your needs and desires and we will gladly arrange to have them available for you during your holiday.

TortolaLess developed and quieter than the neighboring U.S. Virgin Islands, the British Virgin Islands attract vacationers that truly want to get away from it all. Many of Island Hideaways' Tortola villa renters enjoy the unspoiled quiet of this beautiful island.
