The design of the property is trendy yet casual, perfectly encapsulating the laidback luxury of the British Virgin Islands.

What a Wonderful Honeymoon!

Reviewed By WorldTraveler61997

My husband and I enjoyed our honeymoon at Long Bay Beach Resort (we were there for about 10 days). First, the location is absolutely wonderful - so beautiful and out of the hustle of Road Town. Akil and Karima were wonderful hosts and concierges. They set up a great shared charter for us with Aristocrat Daysails, set up taxis and covid test for us, and gave us some great recommendations for around the islands! The rest of the staff were all so nice and great to talk with. Overall, our stay at Long Bay was wonderful! Highly recommend! Side note: if you’re looking for a great private charter for a day sail, check out Anne Bonny. Daisy and Natalie were great guides/cooks/captains - you name it they did it! Also, Booty was the best canine first mate I’ve ever seen (and deserves all the pets and belly rubs).

5 Star All Inclusive Package

Reviewed By csink56

Highly recommend the All Inclusive Package, as it provided tremendous value. Feel confident in other people's 5 star reviews - you won't be disappointed. The room had lots of character and felt more like a one bedroom home than a generic hotel room. Breakfast and lunch were solid, but dinner was the star - delicious, high end, and most importantly lots of variety to prevent same restaurant burnout. Chantel, Margret, and Marylee (apologies if the names are misspelled) provided tremendous service. It also include free transportation to and from the airport and amazing excursions - island tour and catamaran day. The pool is very nice, and there is a honor bar with beer, mixers, and hard liquor. The beach is beautiful and overlooks Jost Van Dyke, but it is rocky from Irma, so there is some minor maneuvering through rocks to get to the clear patches in the ocean. Lastly, a special thanks to Rupert and Andrea. They are the true reason for all the 5 star reviews. They were very happy to assist in any requests on additional excursions, taxis, COVID testing, and other questions regarding Tortola.

Not as good as presented.

Reviewed By Kevin H

Positive: They let’s us check in a little early. Negative: Staff not very friendly. No working internet or TV. When mentioned to them they say to unplug internet box in room and if that does not work, you’re out of luck. Warning: The jerk chicken wrap in horribly hot and we like hot foods. Wife was unable to take a second bite. Yikes!!! Mentioned this to waitress and she said nothing back. You just don’t get the feeling guests are welcome. We will not be coming back.

Sebastian's on the Beach

Our Beachfront property affords a spectacular location right on the beach at little apple bay in the west end of Tortola. We have a selection of accommodation that can be configured to suit the needs of singles, couples and families. Our in-expensive tropical yard rooms have long been a favorite for visiting yacht charter guests, scuba divers and surfer's. While our Beachfront rooms and our Seaside Villas are preferred for longer term stays.

Very nice place

Reviewed By Mostlycheapbastard

We stayed at Sebastions after deciding to come to Tortola at the last minute. We upgraded to the King suite that was literally right on the beach, in fact we had to close the door in the night because the surf was too loud. Great problem to have. Lol. The beach was beautiful white sand and although a little tricky to get in was very swimmable. There were stones just where the waves broke. Anyway the place was great and the staff were wonderful. Now we knew nothing about Tortola and most reviews we read were from people that have spent a lot of time there. So if you're staying at Sebastions or probably anywhere get a car. It costs about 50 bucks to get a taxi from the airport and at least 25 bucks wherever you go. The roads are interesting but the drivers are courteous. We wanted to see the other islands but found there was so much to do on Tortola that we will wait til next time and rent a boat for the day.

Honestly, you need to completely disregard the recent one star of the Wyndham Tortola that talks about rooms being "roach infested and ant infested," and a lot of other complete nonsense exploitative and deceptive management. Nothing could be further from the truth based on my just completed stay. This a wonderful place and a bargain to boot. Having just spent two full weeks there, I can tell you -- unequivocally -- that this is a spectacular place to stay and an incredible bargain. First, the beach is pristine and spectacular. It's now my favorite beach in the world, and I've been to many -- from Vieques to Bonaire to Isla Holbox to St. Martin. When I say pristine, I mean it is a beach as you'd imagine it a hundred years ago -- where you can wade and swim with shoals of silvery fish and get within feet of tarpon and bonefish when they cruise the shallows. Second, the resort is small enough that the beach is often empty -- particularly as people retreat to the pool at day's end or the bar during the heat of midday. And as you look around this spectacular crescent of beach, bracketed mountains and close by islands, it hard not to be awestruck. Third, rooms are great -- just the right size, terrific air conditioners that keep the temperature as cold as you'd want, great water pressure, great beds, and a sizable refrigerator to hold your food and beverages. Fourth, the restaurant serves good food. The menu is somewhat limited, but we're foodies and we did just fine with a little repetition over two weeks. There is always fresh fish, often fresh grilled lobster, and killer pancakes in the morning (and great drinks!). Finally, the management and staff are caring, friendly, and efficient. You always return to a pristine room.

The Heritage Inn

The Heritage Inn is just what you want if you are looking for the total getaway. The Inn is located on the hilltop of a sleepy village: Carrot Bay, on the north side of Tortola. These comfortable apartments offer probably the most breathtaking views on the island: "voted Best sunset view in the BVI!" 180 degrees east and west and overlooking Jost Van Dyke, Sandy & Green Cays and three Tortola bays. This locally owned inn is quaint and quiet. Each suite has a private view-facing balcony and is furnished with a fully equipped kitchen, living room and AC king-size bed in bedrooms. Three suites have two bedrooms for family or friendly vacationers. Six, clean and comfortable, one bedroom suites also offer enough space to just forget your cares and hang out for a week. The views are so beautiful that most guests just "gape" for the first few days. In the summer the sun sets directly over the water. It is so beautiful that the locals go up for sunset cocktails at the BananaKeet Cafe on the poolside veranda to watch the sun setting over the awesome horizon. It's no wonder the slogan reads... the Higher you Get... the Better the Views!!

Very upset I took it to the room didn't finish it and the advertised daily room cleaning did not exist, the pizza box and remains stayed in my room for 2 days so with no windows the room stunk.

This is definitely a luxury inn! The rooms are beautiful and huge. This place has a great location on the beach as well. We would definitely come back. While we were there I had a medical emergency and everyone at Quito’s was so good to us. They went above & beyond to help us out and to make sure we were taken care. We will never forget that and thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Fort Burt Hotel. AVOID at all costs

Reviewed By Windsor35A

This is definitely the WORST hotel we have ever stayed in. Dark entrance bar area, chaotic front desk, damp broken down exterior and depressing dark dining area. Ridiculous price for a ‘superior sea view room’. Broken bulbs, terrifying electrics, filthy tiles, broken bedside lights, floor tiles broken. Incredibly noisy main road in front of room. This old property has nothing whatsoever to recommend it, the building should be condemned and flattened. We would definitely have left after seeing the room but it was a ‘no refund’ booking. The pool half full and covered in leaves too !
