NEW LISTING: Spacious 1 Bedroom Villa, Magnificent Views, 5 Mins To Beaches
*Available again for short term rental from January 2026!*
Makere House is located above Cane Garden Bay, Tortola, and enjoys gentle breezes and magnificent views out over the bay, surrounding islands and the Caribbean Sea. Situated within a tropical garden at the end of a short gated drive Makere House represents the ideal retreat in which to relax and unwind.
The house is very spacious and ideal for a couple or single guest. The master bedroom has a king-size bed, views out to the bay and an ensuite bathroom. The living room is very comfortable with a 3 seater sofa bed and armchair and adjoins the open plan kitchen via a breakfast bar. The kitchen has all modern requirements and there is a washing machine and tumble dryer in the pump room underneath the house.
The house has been built very much in the ‘Caribbean Style’ with an expansive 12ft wide wrap around wooden deck, blue shutter windows, white walls and terracotta-tiled floors creating a clean and simple environment. With its positioning up on the hill there is usually a lovely cooling breeze at all times of year.
Makere House is one of two holiday rental villas on the property. Makere House is on the upper level with Makere Cottage below. Both are one bedroom and completely private and separate to one another. They are rented only to couples or single guests to ensure a quiet and peaceful environment on the property.
