Accommodations - Ashore / Afloat

Ashore



Beachfront Villas

    Our West Indian-styled Beachfront Villas, situated on the North side of the resort, are open, breezy, and cool, with tropical ceiling fans and screened jalousie walls/windows. Each verandah features a hammock.

North Sound Suites

    Particularly popular among honeymooners and those seeking the utmost in privacy, the North Sound Suites offer stunning sunset views over North Sound, elegant decor, telephones, and air conditioning, with TV/VCRs available upon request.

Estate House

    The sumptuous 2-br., 2-bath Estate House, nestled amongst the North Sound Suites, boasts one of the Caribbean’s best views—a panoramic overlook from 250 feet up of the best, most protected deep water anchorage in the Caribbean, North Sound. The Estate House’s living room, adjoining family room/board room, and wraparound verandah are the ideal gathering place for families or small groups looking for a retreat.

All accommodations include a mini refrigerator and coffee maker as well as wide private verandas for enjoying spectacular views.

For reservations call: 800-872-2392

Afloat

The Charter With a Difference

    Live aboard your yacht, and sail all you please. When you return from a short or extended cruise around the BVI, pick up a mooring or dock at our Quarterdeck Marina, where you’ll have maid service on your boat, plentiful hot showers, and every Yacht Club amenity and activity ashore. ALL meals ashore in either of our famous restaurants, as well as provisions for the boat are included. Unwind on our beaches or beside the pool. The Bitter End’s complete watersports Program — the world’s best — is also included.

Yacht-Villa Combo for Two

    The Yacht-Villa vacation for two offers it all at a great price. Enjoy as many nights as you desire aboard a fully equipped Freedom 30 “floating suite,” and spend the rest of your stay in a Beachfront Villa or a luxurious North Sound Suite. Discover your own romantic beach or palm shaded cay. When you return, pick up a mooring or dock at the Quarterdeck Club where you’ll have hot showers ashore, and maid service on your boat. After the fun of cruising, enjoy the remaining nights ashore in your Villa.

About the Freedom 30: The Ultimate Two-person Charter Yacht

    The Freedom 30 is supremely easy to sail. Sail handling and trim are kept to a minimum. Down below you’ll find three cabins, with berths in the aft and forward cabins, and a big fold-down table in the main cabin that comfortably seats 5. The galley, head and nav station are equipped for cruising needs and comfort. The boat has great speed under way, and an l8hp Yanmar diesel provides auxiliary power if needed.
