The scenic views from Magic Castle look north and east across Little Lambert Bay to Monkey Point and Guana and Great Camanoe Islands The sailboats heading on a reach from Virgin Gorda to the popular anchorage at Cane Garden Bay all silently glide through the waters below you, creating a lovely, continually changing seascape. The restaurants and supermarkets in Road Town are a 15 - 20 minute drive and Trellis Bay and Beef Island are about a 15-minute drive. DESIGN. Magic Castle is a 2-level design with the 2-bedroom rental villa on the upper level and a private manager's apartment on the lower level. The living area, interior dining, kitchen and guest bedroom are located in the larger pavilion on the east end of the L shaped deck, while the master bedroom pavilion is on the west end of the deck. Between the two pavilions is the 30' pool, surrounded by the large partially covered deck that provides lots of room for relaxing in the sun or shade. The 4-person hot tub is tucked into a corner of the deck overlooking Little Harbor and the sea below you. With their 25' vaulted ceilings, the pagoda styled roofs give Magic Castle a unique look that is attractive from both the exterior and interior of the villa. KITCHEN/ LIVING / DINING. After passing through the gated entry and walking up the brick path, you enter through mahogany doors into the spacious living room. With its fully screened doors, vaulted ceilings, colorful artwork and comfortable furnishings, this is a fine place to relax. A stereo and CD/tape player, fax and answering machine are included. You may dine inside at the mahogany table seating 6 or outside under a covered area of the deck. With its center island, the kitchen is large and well equipped for the vacation gourmet, but you may prefer to cook on the deck on the gas barbecue grill.
BEDROOMS. The master bedroom/ tiled bath has a king bed and is located in its own pavilion about 2 steps from your 30 foot pool. This large, fully screened suite has a surround sound stereo, a VCR and CD/ tape player and a private balcony with hammock overlooking Little Bay. The smaller 2nd bedroom/tiled bath contains two twins (or 1 king) and is located in the main pavilion. The separation of the 2 bedrooms provides excellent sound and visual privacy, but it may be unacceptable for some families with younger children.
CARIBBEAN VILLAS VIEW. This is a another great rental that offers both a comfortable and romantic villa, and a quiet and private location. With its 30' pool, treadmill, Lifestyle rowing machine and nearby snorkeling and swimming, this is a great choice for the active vacationers who want a fitness workout. But the very same pool and its sunny deck area, a hot tub, hammock, gas grill, stereo/CD players and a peaceful, quiet and private location also make this a great place to relax, chill out, and just enjoy the warm breezes and cheap rum of the Caribbean.
EXTRAS. An Ab Shaper, baby stroller, car seat, playpen and assorted snorkel gear and aquarium are included. |
