About this property
Cane Garden Bay Cottage #1
Tucked just steps from one of the British Virgin Islands’ most beautiful beaches, our charming cottages offer the perfect blend of comfort, privacy, and laid-back island living.
Each cottage (half of a duplex) features a bright, open living space with a sofa that converts to a twin bed, a well-equipped kitchenette, and a full bathroom. The bedroom includes a comfortable queen-sized bed and air conditioning, while a second A/C unit in the living area keeps the entire cottage cool. Ceiling fans in every room add to the breezy, tropical feel.
Recently renovated, the cottages feature tiled floors throughout and relaxed island décor. Step outside to your private covered deck with a dining table, chairs, and overhead fan—perfect for morning coffee or evening drinks. Foot wash stations at each entrance make it easy to rinse off after the beach.
For larger groups, adjoining cottages can be connected via privacy doors when renting both sides of the duplex.
Set on 1.75 acres, the property is a rare find in Cane Garden Bay—lush, spacious, and shaded by coconut palms and almond trees. Guests can unwind in hammocks, enjoy meals in the 14' x 18' gazebo with charcoal grill, or simply relax in the peaceful garden setting.
Additional amenities include:
High-speed Wi-Fi Backup generator for uninterrupted power In-unit safe, hair dryer, blender, and Bluetooth portable speaker Professional housekeeping every 3–4 days
Located on the quieter end of Cane Garden Bay, you’re just a short, easy walk to restaurants, beach bars, and essentials—plus a small, family-run bar and general store right next door for convenience.
Tropical decor and tiled floors throughout add to the charm of the cottages. A professional maid service cleans each cottage every three or four days.

We had the best experience staying in Cane Garden Bay. It is close to just about everything. We really liked the property and loved how Sharlene made everything so easy for us. We would definitely stay here again.
Cozy cottage with nice bedroom and sleeper sofa. Beach chairs, towels and cooler provided for easy walk to beach. Ample kitchen supplies and easy stroll to numerous, excellent, restaurants.
By far the best maintained property in the area and the location can't be beat. Everything you could possibly need is within walking distance if you never wanted to leave the bay. The beach is a very short walk across the street and what a beautiful view!
Perfect in every way! Great location. Amazing beach, the best on the island, in my opinion. 5 minutes to many restaurants .Thank you to all you beautiful ladies that helped make our stay a memorable one.
This is one of the best places we have stayed. The kitchen was very well equipped, the entire unit was clean and comfortable. The beach was beautiful and the restaurants and grocery store were a 5 minute walk. The roosters and chickens with their chicks were a lot of fun.
The location was incredible and everything we needed was easy to find nearby. We recommend renting a car to get to explore at your leisure. Highly recommend!
Great location to explore from. Out of Roadtown hub-bub
Cottages have character yet modern & updated. Love the hammocks & so easy to get to beach
Complimentary beach chairs & cooler a bonus as well as a few soft drinks in fridge to get you started
yOur 6 night stay in our CGB Villa. After ferrying over from St. Thomas we were met by Sharlene who represented the villa. She had picked up our rental car from Turquoise Rental and gave us the keys. We got to CGB and the villa was as advertised. Clean and cool, right across the street from the beach. Restaurants were within 5 to 10 minute walks and
We loved every moment of our stay. From the warm hello at pickup at the ferry terminal (from Eric and in turn, Leon) to our arrival and welcome at the cottage (Sharlene and the cleaning team), to the sheer beauty of Cane Garden Bay, and the gifts of our daily excursions and interactions with the local community, we could not have wished for a more magical time. The cottage too was exactly as shown and was central to the beach, restaurants, and an excellent base for our adventures. We would really love to visit again soon.

Beautiful Setting on Cane Garden Bay!!!
Spent 3 nights in Cottage #3 in January of 2016, it was beautiful, clean, comfortable, and private! I loved the setting, and close to everything I was looking for! The beach was beautiful, and having access to a cooler and sand chairs made it easy to spend the day at the beach. There is a local store close by for certain things you might need. I did not cook, but the kitchen was equipped for doing so. The only thing I would complain about is the mosquitoes, but that just comes with the tropical setting. Would definitely stay there again!!!

We are very concerned about mosquitoes at The Cottages. We spray the back part of the property for mosquitoes from time to time during the rainy season. We have excellent screens and keep them in good condition. We provide insect repellent and a mosquito zapper for our guests' convenience. Unfortunately, if the front doors are not kept closed, mosquitoes may enter the Cottage. We will review our information package to ensure we are providing guests with suggestions on how to guard against mosquitoes.

Since we have stayed at this cottage twice before, it was just as we remembered, close to the beach and the many restaurants/bars and comfortable. The only thing to do is to fix the bed squeek (cottage #1)....We have always enjoyed these cottages!!

I will let JC know his squeak "fix" hasn't worked in Cottage #1. Repeat guests are the foundation of our business! Thank you for choosing The Cottages as your home away from home in Cane Garden Bay.
About the host
Hosted by Craig Corser
I live in Alberta, Canada. I am involved in secondary wood manufacturing, elk farming and organic food production. My wife Kelly and I, have been married for 32 years. We have three adult children and three grandchildren. We all love Tortola and Cane Garden Bay.
Why they chose this property
This property was originally purchased and developed by an uncle and eleven other 'cockeyed optimists' from Alberta, Canada, in 1979. My father bought out eight of these twelve in 1990 and upgraded the property. I got involved soon after and have been managing the property for about 20 years. We have continuously improved the property, including a full renovation in 2013.
What makes this property unique
We are located at the quiet end of Cane Garden Bay, literally steps from the beach and a short level walk to everything you need.
Our property is 1.75 acres and is unique in that we have a large, lush private yard, shaded by coconut palms and almond trees. There are hammocks to relax in and high speed wireless for your convenience and a gazebo that houses a charcoal grill and tables.
There is a tiny, family run bar and general store right next door. Rental cars are available locally.
With four rental units (see VRBO Listing #'s 914871, 914873 and 914875 for details on the other three units) and a large private yard, we are a great place for family vacations, weddings and business meetings.
