Villa Somoya -NEW POOL- Spectacular 360 degree views!

Don't pass by this amazing villa, the photos of this home do not do it justice!
The #1 comment we get from guests is "WOW, it's so much more than we thought it would be!"

*New Photos Uploaded Oct. 2023*

Villa Somoya is one of Virgin Gorda’s most luxurious villas. Construction of this 4,500-square-foot home was completed in August 2014 and updated in 2019.

This 3-bedroom / 3-bathroom home sits on a hilltop ridge and features spectacular views. From the home’s elevated setting guests can see up to 19 U.S. and British Virgin Islands in a stunning panorama of blue seas and rock formations.

Thoughtfully designed to coexist with Virgin Gorda’s natural setting, Villa Somoya is nestled among giant granite boulders that reveal the island’s volcanic origins. The property’s indigenous trees and rock formations have been preserved and further enhanced with landscaped gardens. The villa’s setting makes it hard to tell where nature ends and Villa Somoya begins.

Centrally located in a private and exclusive residential area, Villa Somoya is a 5-minute drive from a dozen restaurants, a half-dozen grocery stores, and the island’s best beaches including Little Trunk Bay, Spring Bay, and The Baths. The location is ideal!

DESCRIPTION

Villa Somoya is made up of two buildings surrounded by expansive outdoor decks and covered terraces. The use of exotic woods and the inclusion of high-end fixtures and appliances give this home a sophisticated and upscale vibe. The villa’s furnishings are the perfect blend of classic design with Caribbean accents.

Several spectacular design features make Villa Somoya a great home for gathering with family and friends. The villa’s well-equipped and modern kitchen features a large breakfast bar that opens to a covered terrace. Also on the terrace, you will find the villa’s outdoor kitchen with a built-in gas grill and mini-fridge. Completing this space, a large dining table makes it easy for guests to enjoy alfresco dining.

The villa’s bedroom suites are spacious, air-conditioned, and designed for comfort. Each bedroom is equipped with a private bathroom. The villa’s master suite features a private patio that overlooks the property and has views of Tortola and beyond.

OUTDOORS SPACES

Without a doubt, guests of Villa Somoya are going to enjoy this home’s outdoor spaces. The large covered terrace features a wide variety of seating options and provides plenty of shade from the sun. The terrace also features a Bose audio sound system.

In front of the covered patio is a deck lined with lounge chairs. Guests looking to work on their tan can do so while enjoying panoramic water views and a new pool completed in December 2021.

Between the villa’s guest bedrooms, a wooden deck is home to one of the property’s most spectacular vistas. This natural breezeway is a great spot for soaking in the views.

BEDROOMS

Villa Somoya’s 3-bedroom can sleep up to 8 adults. The Master Suite and one of the guest bedrooms both feature king-sized beds. The third bedroom features two queen-sized beds.

Larger groups, up to 10 guests, can also be accommodated. For example, 4 adults can sleep in the villa’s two king-sized beds and up to 4 children can sleep in the villa’s two Queen beds. Alternatively, supplemental bedding including a pull-out couch in the great room as well as two portable Twin mattresses, give guests additional flexibility when it comes to sleeping arrangements. For families with babies or toddlers, a pack n’ play and a crib are also available.

AMENITIES

Villa Somoya was thoughtfully furnished and equipped to anticipate the needs of our guests. Amenities include wireless internet flat-screen satellite TV with HBO, Egyptian cotton linens, hairdryers, beach chairs, pack-n-play, high chair, gas BBQ grill, and ceiling fans throughout books, games, and laundry room.

Additional Services:

Villa Somoya is managed by VILLAS VIRGIN GORDA. They are located just minutes from the villa and are available before, during, and after your trip to make sure you have a first-class villa rental experience. Housekeeping is included with your rental (no service on Sundays or Holidays).

Additional services on request and at extra cost: Private Boat Charter Airport pick up from Beef Island (Tortola) or St. Thomas, massage services, chef services, Initial fridge stocking, babysitting, and More!

For vehicle rentals, we recommend Mahogany Car Rentals, you can find them online with a quick search or we can share details after you reserve the villa. All of the local rental companies have similar vehicles and rates but we think Mahogany provides the best service. They will bring your vehicle to the ferry dock/airport for your arrival. After a few minutes of paperwork with their attendant, we will escort you to the Villa and get you checked in.

Taxis are available but can add up, we are happy to share our favorite Taxi Driver's details after booking.

Virgin Gorda is the perfect place to "island hop" from, we can also help you arrange a boat charter to some of our sister islands. Day trip to places like Anegada, Jost Van Dyke, Cooper Island, Norman Island, Scrub Island, and more....

PRICING STRUCTURE
Our villas have a base rate for smaller occupancy, with additional charges for each extra person or room up to capacity. This tiered pricing is common across the island and accommodates various group sizes. Given the limited number of hotels, this ensures couples and smaller groups can enjoy our villas affordably, making our villas flexible for all budgets and needs.

Phenomenal
Christi ensure that all our needs were met during our stay. From greeting us at the ferry, arranging car rental, to escorting us to the villa and stocking the frig with bacon,/eggs/OJ/bread/cream/butter & coffee for breakfast the next day. The villa is situated on Windy Hill -appropriately named for the non stop breezes from the water. The 360 degree views were magnificent! Sunrises and sunsets second to none. The kitchen is well stocked with table & cookware. The villa has 3 huge bedrooms with ensuite and AC. The outdoor back patio is very large - large dining table to accommodate 14 plus. Grill, refrigerator and multiple seating areas make this an ideal location for gatherings. The island was easy to navigate - despite minimal street signage. We explored the island easily in one day. Three beaches we visited several times - Savannah Beach, Spring Bay and Pond Bay. Spring was our favorite. The Baths were also magnificent. The island residents are still recovering from the devastating hurricane in 2017. Despite the challenging conditions that many homes, stores and establishments are still facing the residents of the island are lovely, pleasant and friendly. The Bath & Turtle, Top of the Baths and CocoMaya were our favorites eateries. Waitress Sharon at Bath & Turtle was pleasure to meet! Highly recommend Villa Somoya.

The Jewel of the BVI
This beautiful home is an absolute gem. One couldn't ask for a more comfortable abode or more mesmerizing views of the surroundings. The house is situated at what is probably the highest point of the southern end of the island. At night, we enjoyed soul stirring views of the moonlit water, the lights of the surrounding islands, the milky way, and shooting stars from the beautiful, expansive multilevel tiled deck. With the windows open, one is lulled to sleep by the smooth sound of the breeze from the trade winds. During the day, gleaming sailboats and even five-masted sailing ships drift along the sound with the entrancing backdrop of the neighboring islands. There is a magnificent sunset every evening from the back deck, and a beautiful sunrise and a staggering view of Taylor Bay from the front. One could not ask for a more ideal location on the entire island. The house is very conveniently located to access points for several spectacular beaches, comfortable and casual dining / drink spots, and not far from fantastic fine dining, night clubs, yacht clubs and more. I feel fortunate to have found a place that exceeded my expectations in every way. Villa Somoya made for a tremendous, comfortable, satisfying vacation. It was beyond difficult to say good bye to the place when it was time to return home to reality! You will NOT be disappointed with this gorgeous, relaxed, luxurious yet unpretentious, comfortable, well appointed and well designed vacation villa!

Villa Somoya, what a place!
Stayed at Villa Somoya for a couple weeks over Christmas/New Years. This house has it all, the view, amenities, the solitude and privacy. The huge patio on the Tortola side of the house is unbelievable, you could just almost live outside. The patio and deck on the other side of the house has a dreamy wind that blows all day which helps to keep things cool at night and during the day while just sitting or reading. The kitchen has everything you could possibly need for cooking and entertaining, plus a large outdoor grill and a beverage refrigerator on the large outdoor patio. The owners have thought of everything. The house is within a short drive to food shopping, the beaches down at Spring Bay and an assortment of restaurants. Beach chairs, an umbrella and plenty of beach towels are available for your beach day pleasures. Pack light, Villa Somoya has a washer and dryer at your disposal. Sit out on the lower patio at night with all of the lights off and look at the stars, quite a sight. Make sure you plan some evenings out to Coco Maya, Che Bamboo, Sugarmill and Hog Heaven. For lunch make sure you go to the Mad dog for sandwiches and cocktails, tell Edith that Charlie sent you. Christy will make sure that you are acquainted with the amenities in the house and Margaret will help you keep it clean. Take a day trip out to Anegada to see the pick flamingo's and some of the largest unspoiled beaches you will ever see. If you are adventurous, rent a boat over at Leverick Bay Watersports and go island hopping, you can get a captain if you need one, visit Foxy's and Soggy Dollar over on Jost VanDyke, go snorkeling at the Indians, visit the Willy T, Peter and Cooper Islands. All in all, if you are looking for a great place to stay on Virgin Gorda, whether you want to sight see, go to the beaches or just relax and do nothing, Villa Somoya will not disappoint.

Villa Somoya was a very nice change of pace
My wife and I had stayed on Virgin Gorda twice before, both times in Nail Bay. Villa Somoya was a really nice change of pace being much closer to Spanish Town and The Baths. The views in any direction are great, Tortola, Gorda Peak, road to North Sound, airstrip (will get to this later), Fallen Jerusalem, The Baths, and the Valley are all within view. There are literally two sides of the house, the windy (east) and the more still (west) on the patio. There was only my wife and I but this house could easily accommodate 6-8 people. We never used AC the whole week because the breezes provided the best cooling. It's convenient to many restaurants in the Valley but is also stocked with everything you would need to cook at home. Bring your ipod with favorite music. The villa is at the top of a hill but if you like to run, it is convenient to all the roads or just do hill repeats. The back terrace is also a great place to practice yoga. Now to the best features. The house is surrounded by, and includes, the same type of boulders that typify VG. The ones in the front (windy) side provide great climbing and views of the airplanes arriving and departing from the airport. Watching and filming the planes coming in and out was one of our favorite activities. Have I mentioned the outdoor shower? Great shower outside the second master bedroom. It doesn't drain that well but damn, it's an outdoor shower. If you want a place to chill, entertain, or be in a central location on VG, this place will likely fill the bill. If you don't absolutely require a pool, there is one at Top of the Baths restaurant and there is also Spring Bay, then you will love this place. Lastly, I just want to thank Howard for getting us acquainted with house and Margaret for helping keep it clean and appointed. I am missing Virgin Gorda so much right now.

Thank You.

Perfect Romantic Getaway
We booked a trip to Virgin Gorda for a special occasion - our third anniversary. The outstanding service began at the airport when we were met by Howard, the property manager, who had arranged for our rental car to be waiting for us as soon as we walked off the plane. Howard was funny, friendly and knowledgeable about the best beaches, restaurants and grocery stores on the island. After the quick drive from the airport we pulled up to the house and I have to say I was floored! The house is on top of one of the highest spots on the south side of Virgin Gorda. We had seen the photos, but in person the views were even more amazing. Walking up to the front door of the villa, all you see is the Caribbean, all you feel is the breeze. It was the perfect welcome after traveling. Howard showed us all the amenities and fixtures in the villa, however I sort of zoned out after I saw the world’s best hammock. Off the main outdoor space (which includes super comfy couches and a top of the line outdoor grill), there is a macrame hammock that provides a view of both sides of the house. Look left and you see the ocean, look right and you see the lush green of Virgin Gorda with a backdrop of sky and sea. Absolutely incredible. Seeing as it was our anniversary I had to share, but I hogged as much hammock time as I dared! What was so nice about staying in the villa, as opposed to a resort or hotel, was that it really was like having a home away from home. The kitchen had every cooking instrument I could ever want, and we were able to cook a fair amount of our meals. The house was a quick three minute drive from a grocery store, so it was easy to stock up on the basics. We elected to have Margaret, a woman recommended by the owner, prepare a home cooked West Indian meal for us one night. Having a taste of the local flavor while watching the sunset over the island is a memory we won’t forget! Virgin Gorda itself was such a wonderful, friendly, beautiful place. Having a home base and really exploring one island was really special. We were so relaxed and really enjoyed driving to all the different beaches, learning the Island. When all is said and done, I can’t wait to book our next trip down! Highly recommended!!

Amazing house, amazing views
There were 10 of us (two families) in our group and the house could not have been more perfect. Plenty of space for sleeping and socializing. The beautiful outdoor dining table allowed all of us to dine together at the same table, and the more than spacious outdoor decking areas provided ample seating for us to enjoy our afternoons watching the sunset. All three bedrooms were incredibly large, and both master bedrooms offered features that allowed them to feel equal. Photos of the property, inside and out, do not do it justice. Spectacular views from every location in and out of the home, even from the showers! It was apparent every detail of the home and property had been carefully thought out and appointed with top quality. The hardest part of our day was deciding how much time to spend at the beautiful nearby beaches, or just staying at Villa Somoya to enjoy all the property had to offer. Thank you to the owners for sharing your wonderful home with others, and thank you to Howard (our property manager) for helping make our experience so wonderful. From the initial inquiry of the home, to helping assist with planning prior to our arrival, and all the extra assistance during our stay.....Howard could not have been more helpful and accommodating.

Wow,what a beautiful home and property, quiet, breezy, hill top estate with views in all directions.
My wife and I recently stayed at this new home in Virgin Gorda. It was off season and we got to explore a number of the islands beaches and many times we were the only ones there. It was a perfect tropical experience. We stayed at Villa Somoya in the Princess Quarters area and the 360 degree view lets you see the spectacular views of the Caribbean and Atlantic Oceans. From the back you see Gorda peak and the bays fed by the Atlantic Ocean, from the front you see the Sir Francis Drake channel and the other Virgin islands to the west, along with tremendous sunsets. The covered patio and cooking area should be on a TV show as it is that beautiful. The inside quarters have Brazilian wood floors and very classy appointments, along with a full kitchen. We really loved the secluded outdoor shower which is connected to the house and surrounded by large boulders and Frangia Panni trees. We had nice breezes all day and night and it was very comfortable with quick easy access to all of the other areas around Spanish town and The Baths. The home was first class and very unique. We’d recommend it. It was just the two of us, but the home can accommodate 6-8 people easily. Jeff and Jodie Doize.

Villa Somoya, excellent vacation home base
We were looking for the perfect get away and our stay at Villa Somoya was an ideal choice. The home is situated on top of a ridge overlooking the ocean and you can see most of the British and U.S. Virgin islands from it. The view is 360 degrees of wow! The home is brand new and all the amenities were first class and everything a vacationer needs has been thought of. You’ve got to try the outdoor shower! We did a lot of exploring on the island and this home was a great home base as it was close enough to beaches and attractions - but also quiet and private (which we were looking for). Great restaurants were only a few minutes away. We would definitely recommend staying here.
