Kerensa Villa

Stylish, secluded villa with pool and stunning views. Kerensa is close to gorgeous beaches and has panoramic views of the North coast and surrounding islands. You’ll love it because of the beautiful natural setting, the seclusion, the high end equipment and the quirky antiques and decor. It is ideal for romantic couples but can sleep up to 4 with a pull-out sofa-bed if required.

Good to know

The house was almost entirely re-built following Hurricane Irma in Sept 2017 and so everything is new and improved (except the antiques!) We also modified the house design to make the interior bigger and more comfortable, while adding large glass doors to enhance the spectacular view from inside.

Don’t second guess, just go ahead and book! The pictures do not do this place justice at all. We came here on our honeymoon and ended up extending our stay because of how beautiful and relaxing this place is! We are hoping to make this a yearly trip for us and already counting down the days till we can come back. Ben and his son were amazing hosts. They were quick to reply and gave us some great spots to check out! Just a heads up, make sure to get mosquito repellent!

Easily the best air bnb I’ve stayed in. I still can’t get over how beautiful it was up there and secluded. I highly recommend buying a couple of meals to cook because once you’re up there I promise you won’t want to leave for anything, it’s so amazing!

We’ve stayed in many airbnbs over the years, but Kerensa blows everything else out of the water. The seclusion, the views, the amenities, everything was just magical! We spent almost a week at the villa celebrating our honeymoon and it couldn’t have been more perfect. The weather was also amazing, and Ben was out of the country yet still super communicative and he had someone locally to come help us with any minor issues. We already can’t wait to come back!

Best vacation we’ve ever taken. I’d almost sworn off Airbnb after a bad experience. I’m glad I didn’t because this is the most magical place we’ve ever been! I’ve never seen anything more beautiful than this view. The seclusion is unreal but restaurants, stores, and amazing (and nearly deserted) beaches are a very short drive. We were here during tropical storm Ernesto and it was a wild adventure. Note however, this is a rare event in the BVI and we went knowing it was hurricane season. I’ve never been through a storm like that and I was frightened. Ben was so wonderful though and made certain we felt safe. Afterwards, he was incredibly helpful and communicative reaching out to let us know which stores were open and introducing us to neighbors with a generator so we could charge devices. Despite the storm, this was our best vacation ever. We enjoyed brewers bay, long bay beach resort restaurant (expensive), Nardie’s bar, and pizza at “paradise” on cane garden bay. Highly recommend!!!

The pictures Ben posted on Airbnb do not do this place justice. It was the most romantic and peaceful vacation I have ever had. This was well worth every penny. We had a few days it rained and I was not even mad. I felt so relaxed and at peace. The one thing I wasn't impressed with (this is a slight warning for people who aren't used to the outdoors) is the critters that make their way into the bathroom. I don't really like being close to big bugs and little lizards. If you keep the bathroom window closed, they won't be able to get in. Other than that, I had an amazing time and my husband absolutely loved it. The infinity pool by FAR was the BEST thing there with the beautiful view. 5 STARS!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Kerensa. The villa is exceptional, and Ben is an amazing host, always quick to respond to any questions or issues. During our trip, we island-hopped, and Kerensa was by far our favorite stay out of the four places we stayed in the Virgin Islands. Our only regret is that we couldn’t stay longer. If you have the chance, book it—if you’re a nature lover, you won’t be disappointed (but don’t forget your bug spray).

Another gem from this amazing host, pictures are just not able to capture the beauty of this place, equipped with everything you need to enjoy a private and relaxing holiday in Tortola. Absolutely an awesome stay!

One of our favourite places to stay in the whole world. Everything you are hoping it will be - remote, quiet, secluded, luxurious with the best view in the BVIs. Ben is a great host - always available as needed.

What a cute, quaint, & lovely place to stay! The ambiance was incredible, along with the views, and the house met all of our needs! It was the perfect place to relax after several days of sailing. Highly recommend!

The home was peaceful, well stocked and very private. The pool was clean and a great way to cool off on return to the home. The view is amazing. We would not hesitate to make a return trip. Ben helped with car rental, restaurant selections and was always quick to respond. It was a great week away and the beaches on the island were some of the nicest beaches we have ever seen.

Find us

There is no public transport in the area though taxis can be pre-arranged. The best option for getting around is to rent a car and we can help arrange this if you would like assistance or advice. There is an excellent car rental company nearby to the house. They have good 4WD cars and will meet you at your port of entry and then escort you to the house.
