We have been here twice, after chartering a sailboat with friends.  It is the most relaxing place I have ever stayed.  The hospitality is laid back, and very comfortable. The gardens, pool, and beach are spectacularly beautiful.  And the meals are excellent in terms of quality and flavor.  This visit, several of our group had the grouper for dinner and all swear it was the best they ever tasted!  The rooms are spacious and include a small kitchen and living room.  All have beautiful views of the mountains, gardens, or pool, not to mention the stars shine brighter in this secluded spot.  If you want a truly peaceful experience, this is the place for you!  We will certainly go back.

Tortola Garden of Eden

We stayed a couple of nights here before a week’s sailing in the BVI. Whilst not pretentious, this was a great family run hotel in a great location. Brewer’s bay beach was a short walk down the drive, which was wonderfully quiet. 

Good breakfast; however, you need to order dinner in the morning. We had grilled grouper, which was delicious. There isn’t a lot of other places to eat at I. The evening, so you’d need a taxi to Road Town. 

What a gem!

The room was clean and comfortable. The people were very friendy. They made us feel at home. The hotel is by a beautiful beach good for swimming of snorkeling. If you snorkel do all parts of the bay. We knew a continental breakfast was included but we did not know dinner was available if you put in your request before noon. Dinner was great. The only issue we had was finding the place. Most people take a taxi but we rented a car. There are no street signs in Tortola so we kept stopping and asking directions. Staying there was worth being a little lost at first.

Best place to stay in Tortola

We arrived well before check-in and even though we could not get into a room the staff did everything they could to make the stay enjoyable. The staff let us eat breakfast (they left food out way past breakfast hours) which was unexpected. We haven’t even entered our room and I am giving it a 5 star rating based on the staff alone. I will update and post other photos.

The most accommodating staff

We enjoyed our two night stay at Icis Villas. It is situated one end of Brewers Bay beach which is quiet, clean and typical white sand; blue sea; blue sky and palm trees - bliss. Here are our comments based on the good, the not so good and top tips.

The good:-
- very friendly and helpful staff and service, especially Beverley who seems to work all hours!
- room was good size and clean, with a comfy bed and plenty of drawers and cupboard space to put your clothes.
- a small kitchen area with a fridge, sink, hob etc.
- peaceful oasis in a green and jungle like environment and yet only a few minutes walk to the delightful beach.
- pleasant sized pool with seats and loungers alongside.
- dinner on site one evening was tasty and pleasant and affordable too.
- nice shower and plenty of hot water. Decor a bit dated but nothing to moan about.
- Shampoo and body lotion provided and lots of towels, including beach towels.

The not so good:-
- pool smelt very strongly of chlorine/chemicals, to the point that we couldnt swim in it. Maybe it had just been done.
- lots of noisy cockerels! wasnt really an issue unless you either don't like chickens or are a very light sleeper. However it is nice to enjoy the sounds of nature, but there are lots everywhere!
- breakfast was very basic. couple of slices of bread; bit of fruit, couple of mini cereal boxes and a couple of pastries cut into pieces. No tea that wasnt herbal nor water either. you can order cooked eggs and bacon if you wanted.

Top Tips:-
- take mosquito and insect repellent as got bitten loads walking to and on the beach
- either get a taxi there or hire a car
- there isnt anything else around except the beach and a couple of beach bars. These were closed in the evenings (we were there in May).
- take snorkelling stuff and explore tge rocks on left side of the beach.

I'd recommend staying at the Icis Villas for its peaceful (despite cockerels) and nice location and proximity to Brewers Bay, but get a car to explore the island.

Peaceful; Clean; Quiet Location & Beautiful Beach

I spent two nights and it was very quiet.  The staff was very friendly and was available to discuss activities and call taxis.  Brewer's Bay is the only activity (beach and snorkeling) within walking distance.  The taxis are about $12/person to go to Road Town and to go to Cane Garden Bay.  Cane Garden Bay has a great beach and lots of restaurants/bars and Bobby's Market.  

Very quiet!

We liked the staff at the hotel as they were very nice and professional.

The hotel in my opinion is not a 3 star, but more a 2 star.  The room we were in was old, and the air conditioner when running was like having a tractor in our room.  It was impossible to sleep due to the loud noise, and with only a fan on it was too hot to sleep.

The furniture and drapes were vere old, and a bit dirty. The closet door was broken, and the shower had very little water pressure.

The hotel is in a very remote area and must have a car, and I would recommend not driving at night to and from the hotel. Unfortunately, there are no services, food shop, restaurant within walking distance (the hotel will make dinner for you on request but must advise at breakfast), so it was a bit uncomfortable to drive to Carrot Bay for dinners.
If you plan to cook meals it is possible as they have a small kitchen.

The mosquitos are very fierce, so make sure to have spray with you.
