We have traveled to dozens of islands all over the world. Mongoose is one of the few places my wife and I keep coming back to. It is restful, relaxing and real. The apartments are large and comfortable. They are simple and open to the outdoors. The lanai is a great spot to drink coffee, eat, read or do nothing.... More

I have stayed here several times, usually a week at a time. Mongoose is at the best (quieter) end of a beautiful Bay. Access to the beach is via a trail through what I think is an old coconut plantation. Note there can be there can be bugs en route to the beach as on land in many places in... More

My wife and I recently spent 10 days around Thanksgiving staying at the Mongoose Apartments. This marked our 8th or 9th time staying with Sandra. It's hard to keep track. The apartments have everything we need, and give us the ability to eat in if we desire. Breakfast on the balcony enjoying the scenery, and yes listening to the roosters,... More

My wife and I really wanted a different vacation, somewhere that we felt like we could explore. The BVI is great for that and you are able to escape the commercialism of some of the other islands in the Caribbean. The mongoose apartments are a very nice alternative to a big hotel but the lack in amenities are very obvious.... More

We took our first international family vacation and stayed 10 nights here at the mongoose. Sandra was so friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean and quiet, and well equiped for us to make our own meals. The mattress in our suite was so comfortable, I didn't have any problems sleeping. The internet had, for the most part, a strong... More

After our bareboat sailing week in BVI, we decided to stay a week longer on Tortola. Having been to 18 other Caribbean Islands over the years, this was our first visit to Tortola. Mongoose Apartments turned out to be a very good choice. We stayed in #8 which is very modern, very clean, very well appointed and its veranda on... More

We have just returned from our 6th visit to the Mongoose Apartments on Cane Garden Bay and as usual we had a fabulous time. These apartments are large, with a very comfortable bed, large living area and ample cooking facilities. With Bobbys supermarket a short walk away we dined in every other night after sunset drinks at Myetts - I... More

We stayed with Sandra for 2 weeks in January and enjoyed the entire experience immensely. It was our first time to BVI so we spent a lot of time simply soaking up the sun and relaxing in Cane Garden Bay. From the first contact we had with Sandra she was the epitome of accommodation. She arranged for a sleeping bed... More

We have been to Tortola about fifteen times -- but who's counting? -- and stayed at Mongoose Apartments in Cane Garden Bay for all but two of those trips. The owners, Sandra and Ellie Henley, have built and maintained an environment which, to our minds, is absolutely perfect. If you require traditional five-star luxury, then stop reading, However, if you... More
