Just got the following update from Heather Chapman. She reported, “Surfside Gardens received minimal damage from the storms and has been welcoming guests since December. Check us out.” Surfside Gardens Villa in Cooten Bay is a beautiful two bedroom villa in the picturesque forest. Just steps away from the ocean and historic ruins. Amazing views and sweet sounds of the waves make this an incredible vacation spot you will never forget. The villa is located 50 feet above the Cooten Bay ruins and within sight, sound and a very short walk of the North Shore surf on the beautiful island of Tortola in the British Virgin Islands. Overlooking the spectacular ocean at the front of the villa and surrounded by tropical forest, the breathtaking 360 degree panorama and the lush vegetation around the property will immerse you in tropical mood.

BVI Traveller was created in September of 2017 to help tourism in the British Virgin Islands recover from the devastation wrought by Hurricane Irma.
To that end, we met our goals. In the past 7 years there have been over 1.2 million visits to the website and over 3 million pages have been viewed. There are over 1,000 pages on the site featuring news posts and detailed listings on all hotels, villas, restaurants and sailing charters located in the BVI. The BVI Government and many business, hotels, villas and sailing charters have all agreed that the site “moved the needle on tourism” after Irma.
The site, however, has run its course. It has served its purpose by bringing visitors and local businesses together to rebuild the tourist industry and it is now time to shut down operations for good.
I want to thank everyone for your help and support.
