Miles Away Villa

[patr]

Looking at Marybeth's photos is really getting me excited. We have 48 days 'til wheels up.

First a couple of days at Secret Harbour, then a week at Virgin Gorda (first time for this), then a week on St. John. I would love to hear from anyone who has previously rented Miles Away. I could only find one short review.

patr,
Please post a report on Miles Away when you return. I just reserved it for the only available full week next summer. I have seen a few reviews on another forum and they're all very good.

Miles Away is a bueatiful home. I have not rented it but I know the house and I think you will like it very much.

Where are you staying in Virgin Gorda? We honeymooned at Biras Creek and I still dream about it. It was perfect.

Hi Xislandgirl,

We are spending the week at Euphoria located at Leverick. I hope we don't regret not spending that week on St. John.

Can you recommend favorite beaches or restaurants on VG?

[Xislandgirl]

We ate at the resort the entire time so I can not give you any info on dining. I found Virgin Gorda to be very quiet and not at all like St John.If you are looking for nightlife I don't think that you will find it.

The Baths are very cool and I am sure that you will love them. I have been there a few times and every time I go back I am still amazed by them. Wear very comfortable waterproof shoes to hike through the rocks, not flip flops. I made that mistake.

Yeah, we learned that lesson about the Baths. All I had was flip-flops, and was told that they were a no-no. So I tried it bare footed. Ouch, I had sore and tired dogs at the end of the day. DH had on his Tevas, so he had no problem.

This trip I will definitely be better prepared.

My parents spend 10 days in Virgin Gorda every year. We often spat back and forth about whose island is the best.

They can't say enough good things about a few restaurants: Chez Bamboo & De Loose Mongoose.

I think De Loose Mongoose is on Tortola/Beef Island. We hit that when we are flying out of Beef Island. At least we used to when you could visit Anegada without paying for a charter flight.
