sugar mill, tortola

Set amid lush tropical surroundings, nestled on the northern shore in Little Apple Bay, the Sugar Mill is the perfect place to relax & enjoy the beautiful British Virgin Islands. The Sugar Mill is separated from the beach by a small country road, and all of their rooms are not even a minute walk to the beach. Their circular fresh water swimming pool is nestled among swaying palm trees offering a refreshing alternative to the beach. They have a full concierge service and are happy to assist in organising windsurfing lessons, diving, day sails or spa treatments.

The Sugar Mill Hotel is a delightful getaway . On an island where there are few hotels of any great character or style, Sugar Mill is a Tortola hotel that fills the spot as a friendly, well run and enjoyable place to stay, and which has, most importantly, excellent food. The Sugar Mill is small, with just 23 rooms, but it is set in pretty gardens and old stone walls, taking its name from the old sugar estate that was once contained in them. The heart of the estate, and now the hotel, is the restored boiling house, now the dining room. This is innovative and fun, and is enjoyed on the BVI for its originality and renowned farther afield (it is a regular winner of plaudits and prizes), in the Caribbean and beyond.
