Villa Matija

Villa Matija is nestled comfortably into the hillside overlooking Brewers Bay on Tortola in the British Virgin Islands.

Allow yourself a little luxury and be green at the same time! Villa Matija (prounounced ma-TEE-ya) sits above Brewers Bay with an outstanding view of Jost Van Dyke and several other smaller cays & islands. On a clear day you can see Puerto Rico (about 70 miles away)! Stay at Villa Matija and enjoy the beauty and comfortable climate of the Caribbean with all the comforts of home at your fingertips. With just two bedrooms Villa Matija is perfect for two couples or a small family (no children under 12, please). Each bedroom has it own ensuite bath and is air conditioned for your comfort. A beautifully appointed kitchen opens up onto an outdoor dining room, deck & plunge pool. In the evening relax and enjoy your favorite movies in the living room on a 58″ plasma TV with Bose surround sound. Paradise has never been so good!

How will your vacation be green? Villa Matija takes advantage of the abundant sunshine in the BVI with a solar hot water system and photovoltaic (PV) panels installed to generate electricity from the sun. Although we’re not able to generate all our electricity in this manner, the system provides consistent power as would a backup generator, but without the noise or pollution. A portion of the house’s electrical needs are met by the PV panels with the rest coming from the municipal power supply. And don’t worry, our solar hot water is backed up by a traditional hot water heater that provides an abundant supply of hot water whatever time of day you need to shower.

Brewers Bay beach, one of the most beautiful in the BVI, is just a short 3 minute drive down the hill. Cane Garden Bay, another favorite BVI beach, is a short 10 minute drive. Road Town, the capital of the BVI is also a 10 minute drive away, yet when you’re at Villa Matija, you feel like you’re in another world!

Enjoy the beaches, snorkeling or just lounge at the house. Whatever you decide to do, you’ll be glad you chose Villa Matija as your home during your BVI vacation.
