TAINO - exotic 3 bedroom villa with fabulous pool, everyone's favourite!

Taino's beautiful tropical grounds & unique decor have been lovingly created & nurtured by its artistic owners. Unusual & interesting artefacts adorn every curve & corner of this elegant villa, but the sweeping ocean views really do steal the show.
Taino has a real air of calm & tranquility but is still within 2miles of 2 of our favourite beaches (& their handful of laid-back beach bars & beachfront restaurants).

Remember to follow our socials @villasoftortola for all things BVI!

While it has a tasteful Caribbean flair, Villa Taino also has a sumptuous comfort thanks to the beautiful, rich, wood furniture, and bold use of colour in the furnishings. The fact that Villa Taino has many repeat guests who are drawn back year after year is a testament to the comfort, the ambiance and of course the service that you'll experience here!

LIVING AREAS:
The living areas are large, comfortable open spaces that flow into each other, making for an easy-going atmosphere whether you are friends or a family holidaying together. It's commanding position on a ridge means that Villa Taino is able to take advantage of the trade winds that wrap around the hillside. 

The main living area is on the porch next to the pool, covered by a high, circular roof and open to the stunning ocean views on the sides. You'll find sumptuously cushioned oversize furniture and various seating arrangements for kicking back and enjoying the breezes.

The kitchen is well equipped with everything you'll need for self catering and a large opening in the wall through to the dining room makes preparing dinner easy and enjoyable. Off the dining room is an alfresco dining porch with a teak table and a Weber gas grill for grilling up some local lobster and enjoying with an ocean view. Also accessed from the dining room is the library, housing the TV and a collection of games.

BEDROOMS & BATHROOMS:
1) In a separate wooden pavilion off the pool deck is the Master Suite. It's a large airy screened-in room with more breathtaking views - you won't even have to move from your king size four poster bed to see them! You'll also have a private porch with ocean views which is surely your new morning coffee spot.

2&3) Winding stairs from the hallway lead to the two stylish and eclectically decorated bedrooms with queen beds. Both have large en-suite bathrooms. All bedrooms have screened windows.

STEP OUTSIDE:
Surrounded by tropical palms, you'll enter your very own private paradise through a large wooden gate that opens onto the stunning pool and deck. This area just begs for you to relax enjoy a good book and a cocktail, while admiring the elegant sailing yachts or sleek power boats out on the ocean in front of you. There are plenty of comfy loungers for catching some rays, and your crystal swimming pool feels as if it reaches right out into the ocean beyond. It's a very magical spot.
