Staying on land

In terms of visitor accommodations, the BVI has come a long way in the last 70 years or so. One of the BVI’s first guest houses was called the Social Inn, a quaint wooden home with a wide veranda, tall ceilings and just a few basic rooms on Road Town’s historic Main Street. It didn’t have to be too fancy, because there weren’t a lot of visitors when it opened its doors over a century ago. The Social Inn is no longer a guest house, but with an expanding number of visitors coming to stay in the BVI each year, hotels, guesthouses, resorts and villas have stepped up their game to meet the needs of their increasingly sophisticated guests.

From small hotels, to world class resorts, picturesque homes with killer views to luxury villas, today the British Virgin Islands has a most impressive selection of visitor accommodations. But what the BVI doesn’t have is “boring.” The type of chain hotel where you wake up in the morning and wonder where you are staying.

Whether modest or opulent, what the BVI offers its land-based guests is an intimate experience and a unique feel for life in the British Virgin Islands. You will experience beautiful tropical gardens and views of the sea and surrounding islands, caring owners who greet their guests and friendly management – people who focus on the kinds of details that makes a stay in the BVI memorable. Whether you are travelling with a large family, a group of friends, or are a couple on a honeymoon, there is an accommodation to suit your tastes and your budget.

For those staying on land, the BVI offers a relaxing holiday of lounging on the beach or by the pool and enjoying a range of activities and excursions that will keep you, your friends and family busy and engaged. You will learn exactly what it means to live on an island paradise.
