Ke Villas

Top choice in Tortola

LoginSave

Pronounced 'key,' this place has 12 great-value, recently built, spick-and-span waterfront rooms. Each offers wi-fi, comfy bed, kitchenette with dishware, and big walk-in rain shower. The 1st-floor rooms have a patio and the 2nd-floor rooms a balcony, both prime for watching pelicans dive-bomb fish out front. Ke's hospitable and knowledgable owners really set this property apart.

The location between Cane Garden Bay and Apple Bay is ideal: it's quiet, yet near all the popular restaurants and bars.
