Alfresco is a wonderful luxury secluded property within a private hillside estate overlooking the beautiful Long Bay Beach. 2 pavilions offer spacious living & plenty of deck space for you to relax. Alfresco has been finished to a very high standard, the pool with its infinity edge offering panoramic views of neighbouring islands Jost Van Dyke, Sandy Cay & beyond.
As you enter through an imposing mahogany door into a mezzanine level which adjoins the living room with stunning views out to sea. Sweep down the curvaceous staircase into the living room to relax on sumptuous sofas. There’s 54” satellite TV, a good selection of DVD’s, plus plenty of music to listen to as well! The main deck is right outside the living area, so enjoy the views, or take a dip in the pool or simply enjoy Alfresco living. The pool has LED lighting with multi-coloured themed lighting which is spectacular at night! The pool also has Solar Heating from the pool deck, which gives you a few more degrees more heat in the winter months.
The mezzanine leads into the well-appointed kitchen with its granite counter-tops & stainless-steel appliances. Should you need any provisions for your arrival, just let us know. The Dining Room beacons you from the kitchen with its majestic views of the islands. The bespoke glass & stone table in this open-air pavilion gives a nice airy feel to your dining experience.
From the Dining Room you have easy access down a curving opening arms staircase to the main deck, planters are filled with local palms, bird of paradise, heliconia, gingers & bougainvillea. Take a dip, enjoy the views & relax in the sun. There is an outdoor shower on the deck. In the evening enjoy this area with a cocktail to watch the sun go down, marvel at the fabulous pool colours.
All rooms have large sliding doors which disappear into the walls to open up the house, this offers open plan living & complete flexibility to move around Alfresco with ease. Plenty of books are available, so enjoy some reading. There are board games if you have spare time.
The bedroom pavilion offers an upper-level Master Suite. This has beautiful views of the islands & beyond from the balcony & spacious outdoor private deck. The bathroom is finished with a gorgeous stone Travertine & natural pebbles, the oversized shower offers you an invigorating experience. You can marvel at the wonderful wood ceiling as you look up from your king size bed handcrafted in reclaimed teak from Bali. If you stay in October, there is a wonderful Jacaranda tree full of cotton like flowers which cascades over the outdoor terrace. There is also an extra single bed which can be used, should you wish to have one of the children in with you.
The second bedroom can be found at deck level & offers comfy easy access. You can choose either twins or king bed for this room depending on your needs. The bathroom is finished in lovely stone Travertine & natural pebbles with beautifully bespoke mill work in the bathroom. The private wrap around deck can be used as another area to relax & enjoy your stay. We have an extra single bed if this works better for a family stay or perhaps a 7th guest.
The third bedroom is very private & leads down from the main deck via steps to an outdoor space overlooking trees & landscape. You can enjoy the sea views & ocean sounds at night. This bedroom has a low 4 poster Queen Bed with local art work to give a contemporary feel in this space. The bathroom is finished with stone Travertine and natural pebbles in your lovely spacious walk-in shower. At Alfresco you can enjoy the privacy of this bedroom. Ideal for 2 couples staying, so you have some privacy.

Everything about Alfresco Villa was lovely. Sam, the property manager made the trip exceptional. We traveled during the strict covid measures, and she helped us to navigate the fiasco that the BVI created. The villa itself was a welcome respite from that stress. Well stocked kitchen meant that we could look after ourselves perfectly during enforced quarantine. All her contacts were kind and helpful and made our trip amazing. I've never had the luxury to stay somewhere so nice. I do hope I have the chance again. Date of arrival May 9 2021 Susie T
We enjoyed another wonderful winter stay at Al Fresco, staying a month over late January & most of February 2021. The house & property are beautiful & very comfortable, with the perfect spaces to relax, remote work & practice yoga. Al Fresco's location on the quiet & peaceful West End of Tortola makes for a great getaway. Al Fresco overlooks Long Bay beach, which can be reached with a short walk or drive, where you are often the only one on the beach for hours. The area is also home to several of the BVI's best winter surf breaks, a reasonably well kept secret that keeps us coming back. Allison, Sam, JC & the staff that maintain Al Fresco are wonderful & a pleasure to deal with. Can't wait to return! John Faulkner March 09 2021

Amazing experience with our family! - We took our 2 kids to Alfresco Villa for a family winter vacation. The villa is beautiful, views are breathtaking & the owner/ property manager give great instruction, advise on anything you need. I even asked where to get bug spray & beach toys for my 3 year old, both items showed up at our door the same day! We would definitely stay here again. It was a real experience!

Beautiful property - Another visit to Alfresco, Sam was great & her staff! We love the villa, I'm only sorry I had to leave !!! November 8, 2018 - Brian
Spectacular property - Alfresco is a spectacular property. Everything you can imagine plus more. The views are stunning, the pool fabulous & everything about the house was wonderful. The layout is well thought out & is terrific for reading in a private getaway or getting the group together in the central areas of the house. The assistance & advice that Allison gave prior to our arrival was second to none & the help we received from members of the staff was extremely helpful. We are already in discussions about dates for our next stay at Alfresco Villa. September 15, 2018 Jim & Cindy
We loved Alfresco! - We loved Alfresco! It was so accommodating for what we needed. The view was phenomenal & the pool was perfect! Everyone on the island was so attentive & the management staff you have there worked well with us as we arrived later than expected due to flights being delayed. We will be staying again for sure!

A beautiful place to be able to call home for a week! -
We had a wonderful stay on Tortola in Alfresco. The house is gorgeous, outdoor spaces abounding - plenty of room to gather as a family (5 & 3 year old children) & plenty of space, indoor & out, to read to find privacy to read or nap or enjoy the view. Luxuriating in the pool looking out over the ocean to Jost Van Dyke is amazing, & having everything so well laid out & appointed around you made our week a dream. The island itself is an adventure to discover. The guidebook in the house is very helpful & we found our way to many different beaches on the North Side where we snorkeled & relaxed, climbed Sage Mountain, rented a boat for the day, & enjoyed dinners out as well as in. The owners will recommend 4W drive & it is very handy to have - we had some rain showers & it makes you feel nice & secure to have 4W drive under you. Making the arrangements couldn't have been easier, & everyone involved was extremely helpful & responsive to our questions in preparation for going & while we were there. Thank you for helping us have a wonderful family vacation! July 31, 2017
Breathtaking Villa!
Alfresco simply is the MOST beautiful villa with the most SPECTACULAR views in BVI! Not only is it in a great location, high above Long Bay & close to Soper's Hole, Smuggler's Cove, etc., but the views are as picturesque as you can possibly imagine. Each room has it's own full bath with walk in, open showers, Air Con (thank you!!!), the kitchen is wonderful & we ate outside most nights. Why would you go out when you can enjoy such a gorgeous setting? We all enjoyed the pool, especially my boyfriend Marc! Alfresco is the best place on the island. Coley Sullivan
