As far as I’m
concerned, at the onset of winter there is only one thing on my mind - planning
my long awaited summer holiday. It’s going to be a long, cold, winter and I
want some sun, sand and relaxation. I’ve ploughed through travel brochures,
browsed countless websites and have made my decision. I’m going to the British
Virgin Islands.
Holidays in the
British Virgin Islands are ‘relaxing, breath-taking and amazing’ according to
my hours of research; the photographs I have seen and the reviews I have read. The
British Virgin Islands are located in the Caribbean and are accessible by air
and ferry, and I am heading off to Long Bay Beach Resort which is located on
Tortola. Personally, this holiday is going to be really special for me, it’s my
40th birthday, and I’ve decided to arrive into Tortola in style
aboard a luxury Cessna 401 Business liner that seats 6 and offers a seat next
to the captain. I will do my best to pile on the charm to ensure that seat
becomes mine. The views from the plane are supposed to be awe-inspiring and I
really am excited.
Long Bay Beach
Resort is nestled on a 52 acre estate, with a stunning white sand beach fringed
with palm trees and crystal clear waters.
Long Bay is situated close to Tortola’s West End, and finding the
perfect Tortola hotel for me was quite simple as I discovered the best website
for holidays to the British Virgin Islands. The company, BVI holidays, is
great. They are extremely knowledgeable and have a huge selection of
accommodation to choose from - Long Bay Beach Resort seemed to be the best
Tortola hotel suited to my needs. I knew I wanted activities at my hotel, but I
also wanted the opportunity to relax if I so desired. BVI Holidays has a wide
selection of accommodation to choose from and their website is so user friendly
and precise it was apparent from the onset which of the different accommodation
options would suit me best. Long Bay Beach Resort offers facilities such as
booking scuba diving, tennis and swimming, and there is also a fitness centre
and Spa. For more information click here.
Tortola appealed
to me for a variety of reasons. Although I am a frequent traveller I like the
fact that the island’s inhabitants are English speaking. The island’s history
also appeals. Christopher Columbus
discovered the British Virgin Islands and it has been claimed that pirates such
as Blackbeard and Captain Kidd spent time in Tortola. It is a mountainous
island so the scenery is spectacular and wildlife is plentiful. It’s good to be
able to explore a little when one is on holiday and I am planning on taking a
few leisurely strolls while I am there. The local cuisine sounds divine. I want
to try Johnny cake and conch fritters. The islanders also drink a rum based
cocktail called Painkiller. I think the name says it all! If you are interested
in looking at British Virgin Islands Holidays in particular, or if you want to
source a good Tortola Hotel then BVI Holidays really can help you. For more
information click here.
If you like the
sound of my holiday then don’t hold back. Call BVI Holidays to ask if a holiday
in the British Virgin Islands would suit you, you never know we might even end
up there at the same time! But remember, that seat next to the pilot is
designated for me....
