About this property

Amazing sunset, ocean front, open air villa w/path to sea and dock

Gestalt Villa is situated on the private, gated peninsular estate of Steele Point which is located on the most western tip of Tortola. You will experience tropical wonder as the Gestalt villa is nestled in lush gardens, flowering hibiscus and an abundance of palms on this exclusive 8 acre estate. Your Mediterranean-style villa, includes four smartly appointed air conditioned master suites each with a private outdoor shower. An architectural masterpiece, Gestalt villa provides simultaneous views of both the Atlantic ocean and Caribbean sea.

Over 100 feet above sea level, this unique and totally private villa will afford you alfresco living at its finest. You will notice the villa's charm the moment you walk down the stone walkway through a flowering garden courtyard, surrounded by lofty palm trees and serene ocean views.

The new, custom designed gourmet kitchen features beautiful teak cabinets, ice maker, wine cabinet, beverage cooler, gas range all by high end appliance manufacturers - Sub-Zero, Miele, Bosch. If you enjoying grilling you will like cooking on the large gas grill located right outside the kitchen door.

Gestalt is masterfully designed to combine maximum livability with unparalleled privacy. Here you can experience incredible sunsets, relaxation, romance and fun with family and friends. A wonderful villa for children and adults of all ages.

The Gestalt villa is located on the Steele Point peninsula which is one of the many headlands that make up the Sir Francis Drake Channel. Beyond the channel is picturesque St. John however, the view from Gestalt is of the 7,000+ acres of undeveloped National Park. If the aforementioned views were not enough, from Gestalt you can also see BVI National Parks, Great Thatch Island, Sandy Cay, and Sandy Spit along with eight other islands. Furthermore being part of the Steele Point Estate this villa is directly in the center of not just the USVI or BVI, but all the Virgin Islands. Everything wonderful that the Virgin Islands has to offer is equidistant and easily accessible. Lastly, because the peninsula is a gated estate you have the privacy of a private island, but the convenience of being on BVI's main island.

Absolutely Beautiful
The house has a beautiful layout with a number of spaces where one could have some personal space. The views were excellent in every directions. We enjoyed the parade of boats coming and going from Soper’s Hole. The market at Soper’s Hole was convenient down a rough road. But, there were nice restaurants and a great little coffee shop. I could go on, but this is a fabulous home in an absolutely beautiful location.

Stunning!
Gestalt Villa is incredible. Everywhere you look, water views. Our group of two families included 4 adults and 4 kids age 9 - 12. We loved the villa. The cleaning crew does a FANTASTIC job, the caretaker is responsive and helpful, and the owner provided us with all of the island information that we needed. Highly recommend! There are a few things to be aware of: the property is entirely open other than the bedrooms. So, yes, there are bugs. You cannot leave a crumb or the bugs find it, and at night they will, of course, swarm the lights - including the TV. This is just a facet you have to deal with. You need an SUV, do not rent a regular car. The road to get to Steele Point is unpaved and steep. That said, the location is perfect. So close to Soper's Hole and the West End Ferry! It was very easy 20 minute ferry to Jost Van Dyke, and very close if you opt to do a day on a boat. Smuggler's Cove is the closest beach and it is amazing.

About the host

Hosted by Irina Wilson Gage

Host profile image
In 1968 Irene and her husband Stuart honeymooned on St. John in the US Virgin Islands. The rest is history... In the early 80's they introduced their young children to not just St. John but the US and British Virgin Islands. Although the dream was to move to St. John and begin a new life in paradise, it was not until 2000 that Irene, and her daughter Christine, and son Justin, together purchased the 8 acre peninsular estate known as Steele Point.

Why they chose this property

Steele Point Estate is perhaps one of the most unique, and stunningly picturesque, properties anywhere in the world. The property encompasses the entire Western Peninsula of the Island of Tortola. The estate is exclusively private, with four homes, all with magnificent views and unique tropical open architectural styles. Quite simply it was a most intriguing opportunity for the family to own not just a piece of paradise in the British Virgin Islands, but also one of the most impressive properties anywhere in the world.

What makes this property unique

LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION! Oh and did we mention the view? The peninsula itself is one of the many headlands that make up the Sir Francis Drake Channel. Beyond the channel is picturesque St. John however, the view from Gestalt is of the 7,000+ acres of undeveloped National Park. If the aforementioned views were not enough, from Gestalt you can also see BVI National Parks, Great Thatch Island, Sandy Cay, and Sandy Spit along with eight other islands. Another unique feature of this property is living on the very peninsula where quite literally the Atlantic and Caribbean converge. Furthermore being part of the Steele Point Estate this villa is directly in the center of not just the USVI or BVI, but all the Virgin Islands. Everything wonderful that the Virgin Islands has to offer is equidistant and easily accessible. Lastly, because the peninsula is a gated estate you have the privacy of a private island, but the convenience of being on BVI's main island.
