Ballast Bay Hotels

"We found the villas to be charming and everything we needed. This is not a high end hotel but it is clean, and quaint and comfy. The balconies have wonderful views of the Tortola bay. I took way too many pictures! The hostess and cleaning staff are very friendly and helpful if you have questions. It is a quick walk to the beach and many restaurants. Beds are cozy, WIFI works well. Showers are not the best - hot water runs out fast but that would be my only concern."

"Great hotel!"

"Great location- close to everything, ample parking, oceanfront, restaurant/bar, nice room, showers."

"Nice property. Well maintained. Beautiful beach. Very friendly and courteous service."

"The manager Ashur was most helpful and responsive. They responded to minor issues promptly. We loved the large space and stunning view. The bed was super comfy. The kitchen had plenty of equipment. Would highly recommend. One suggestion - add a sofa bed for additional guests. Note: there is a single hideaway bed. "

"Val was extremely attentive. Our flight was delayed a day and they were very accommodating. "

"Host is extremely friendly and helpful. Answering super fast in all questions. Location is very very nice. "

"The ocean view King bed room l stayed in was spacious and nice."

"Villa Allano was perfect for our family. The views were stunning, the house was well-appointed (and we appreciated the wide variety of books and games!), and we had plenty of room. Our boys swam in the pool most days, and we loved the nearby shaded gazebo/patio area - and the balconies for drinking coffee in the mornings. The villa also was in a great location - quiet, not far from beautiful beaches (though we drove rather than walked), but also close to some solid restaurant options. The driveway up is not for the faint of heart, but that is true for just about every property we saw on the island - it's just goes with the territory with a mountainous terrain. I really appreciated the local recommendations and wealth of information about things to do on Tortola that Colleen sent to us in advance of the trip. Cassandra, the property manager, was delightful, and we were so appreciative that she met us the first night and helped us get to the property. If it weren't for her, we probably would have spent the entire first night circling the island aimlessly. All in all, a wonderful trip, and we would happily return to Villa Allano in the future! "
