"Excellent house with a great pool and exceptional views. The villa was immaculate when I arrive and very nicely furnished. Sylvia greeted me and walked me through all of the details of the villa. She was one of the best parts of the stay. Sylvia went out of her way to bring me a case of water after I had forgotten it while shopping. The grocery stores are not very close and I did not rent a car. She also stopped in mid week to clean and do some laundry for me. She also brought someone to take care of a problem with the outdoor grill which was the only issue I had all week. September is a slow month for Tortola with no crowds which was perfect for my plans for a quiet and relaxing vacation. I walked down to Long Bay Beach and Smuggler's Cove and I almost had the beaches to myself. I highly recommend Smuggler's Cove and Patricia's Beach Bar. The road to the villa is very steep but not too difficult to walk if you take your time. I did use Eric, Sylvia's recommended taxi driver, for a few trips to and from the ferry ports for trips to the other BVI islands. Taxis are a little expensive for just one person but Eric's punctuality and dependability made it definitely worth it. I would definitely stay at Villa Sirenetta again although I would probably rent a car next time to see more of the island."
