3 Bedroom Villa in Leverick Bay

Manana is a three bedroom, three bath villa with pool overlooking Leverick Bay in North Sound on Virgin Gorda, BVI. As you walk through the gate, you are in the land of enchantment ... the sound of the waterfall into the pool, the poolside Spanish tile patio is surrounded by flora and overlooks the sea. And, when the sun gets too hot one can rest in the hammock under the shaded cabana.

The covered deck provides a beautiful wake up call for breakfast and a wonderful sunset and starlit evening for dinner, cooked on the barbeque. The scenes on the waterfront are forever changing, with 180 degree views of the marina and the two entrances into North Sound providing wonderful entertainment!

If you were to take the roof off Manana, she would resemble a peace sign ... how fitting, because it is so very peaceful here in the Caribbean. Manana, one of the original "round houses," has been fully renovated and refurbished and is a charming vacation villa. The kitchen has all new appliances and can seat 4-8 persons; the upper level bathrooms are new and have wonderful views from each shower! The bedrooms are spacious with King beds upstairs and a queen below ... the furnishing is simple, but definitely high quality.

Just a two minute walk to either of two beaches at Leverick Bay for great snorkeling and swimming. Manana is located just 50 feet above the water -- high enough for a great view, but close enough to enjoy the sound of lapping water at the shore. Also just a two minute walk is the Chef's Pantry for provisions, and Leverick Bay Resort with restaurants, shops, spa and tennis court. Water sports are abundant with Scuba diving and snorkeling trips from Dive BVI and boat rentals from Watersports. North Sound is home to three other resorts, and six restaurants accessible only by water, yet east to get to by free water taxi or ferry transport from Leverick Bay or nearby Gun Creek.

Guests from Atlanta, Georgia wrote: "Thank you for sharing beautiful Manana with us. We loved coming back to her peaceful deck and amazing vistas after snorkeling, sailing, windsurfing and hiking. This year the weather and ocean were warmer than usual so we spent hours in the pool, even enjoyed a night swim. I especially enjoyed your plant photo album. The grounds are gorgeous. We loved the waterfall - background music! We picked Manana not only for her beauty, but also the modern convenience including internet, ac, dishwasher and a very well stocked kitchen. ... The decor is very tasteful through the villa. Your attention to detail is apparent. We don't want to leave! Thank you for another wonderful Virgin Gorda vacation. We can't wait to return."
