Villa Valmarc is surrounded by lush flower gardens and a variety of fruit trees, any of which are delightful to enjoy with your sunset beverage while taking in the ocean view.
A short stroll down the path leads you directly onto Mahoe Bay Beach for some of the best swimming and snorkeling Virgin Gorda has to offer.VIEW GALLERY
Set in a lush garden with the best views of the islands & a few minutes’ walk to a pristine beach.
The private villa has two free-standing pavilions with four tastefully decorated bedrooms and outdoor living areas with a relaxing freeform pool.
Villa Valmarc is steps away from a remote and pristine Mahoe Bay beach. You will be captivated by its crystal-clear blue waters, gentle waves, pure white sand and relaxing palm-trees and seagrape.
This tropical landscape is a very short drive to local cuisine, other unspoiled beaches, nature sanctuaries, national parks and plant-lined trails.
Our group had visited three other islands and we agreed that this is our favorite! We loved you beautiful home and our week on the island was very memorable. We will return!
Views of the sea and islands are outstanding from every room, each of which is furnished to a very high standard. The kitchen is fully equipped and appliances are all well-functioning. The pristine beach is a two-minute walk. The island is as beautiful and peaceful as ever, with much better restaurants and bars than it had when we first started going to Virgin Gorda.
This is a beautiful house and a wonderful island. The house is very comfortable and well equipped. We enjoyed the beach and snorkeling at Mahoe Bay, the caves and the waves at the Bath’s, the waves at Spring Bay and the beach and the waves at Big Trunk Bay.
Thank you for sharing your home. It made our vacation unforgettable. Your deck and spectacular views were the launching spot for scuba, snorkeling and sailing adventures.

Note: it’s not unusual to see a report that there are showers predicted for each day of your stay. Do not be alarmed.
