Las Tortugas (The Turtles) is a comfortable seafront home featuring twin master bedrooms. The villa is perched on a small, breezy hill overlooking Paradise beach and the Carriacou Marine Park . It is built around a magnificent view, which includes Paradise beach, a network of coral reefs, and the islands of the southern Grenadines.
Set on almost an acre of hillside, its location affords privacy, while providing easy access to the mile-long white sands of Paradise Beach. This spacious Grenadines Villa is furnished in Southwestern American style, accented with hand painted murals and accessories, and is perfect for couples, families, and friends looking for privacy, comfort and relaxation.
At Las Tortugas you can relax with a good rum punch and look out at a truly breathtaking view. You can arrange to Scuba dive with one of the diving establishments on the island, or snorkel the reef directly below the house, having examined it from the veranda to make sure it looks interesting. You can arrange to visit the Tobago Keys, lovely Palm Island or the famous PSV (Petit St. Vincent). Our man, Godfrey, who is in attendance daily can arrange these excursions for you.
If fishing is your thing, you can arrange a trip with one of the fishermen on the beach. Once more, Godfrey will be there to guide you! You can also arrange a visit to Sandy Island, a famous beauty spot across the bay.
It’s nice to have wheels to explore the island and a 4WD rental car is included with the Villa.
You can enjoy sophisticated dining at the Roundhouse or Slipway restaurants, and for more casual dining there is pizza at the nearby Paradise Beach Club, or local fare and culture at the Lambi Queen in Harveyvale. The main town of Hillsborough is home to a tiny but interesting museum, which is well worth a visit, and Hillsborough itself is one of the few remaining authentic old West Indian towns – just like they used to be in the other islands (about 70 years ago!).
Windward on the East coast of the island, is the center of the local boat building industry, and has to be one of the last places in the world where you can actually see sailing vessels being careened in the old way. Talk to the locals. They are pleasant people, eager to share their knowledge.
