Recently, we were invited to stay at Oil Nut Bay in Virgin Gorda, British Virgin Islands.
See our video & read our personal comments about this wonderful luxury experience:
"Our stay at Poseidon’s Perch Villa at Oil Nut Bay in Virgin Gorda, British Virgin Islands was an experience in sophisticated beauty that bridged a luxury vacation from sailing aboard a professionally crewed charter yacht to a whimsical water palace! After our sail, this was precisely where one could envision the God of the Sea himself surveying the beautiful bay beneath. Luxury abounds in this 4 bedroom oasis with bubbling jacuzzi & swimming pool.
We realized that we were so truly immersed in the experience, that we spent our time talking face-to-face with everyone who made our stay special versus interviewing them through the camera lens! Our enjoyment of the staff, who offered exceptional service, is the true definition of “Where Land Meets Sea and Luxury Meets Sanctuary”! From the Beach Club & Restaurant to the Marina Village, shopping and Nova Restaurant, excellence was seamlessly offered with hospitality & a warm smile. We highly recommend combining a yacht charter vacation with a beautiful stay at Oil Nut Bay!”
