This smallish property is just incredibly lovely. We stayed here for the second time at the end of April. Our first stay was great, this was smashing! So relaxing. This trip we were in Sugar Apple, a two bedroom, two bath, three balcony (!!!) villa. Way too much space for just the two of us, but we enjoyed every second... More

I have no way to describe how wonderful Frenchman's is. We visited for a week in early February 2013, we were in the Mango villa and could not be happier. If I had my way in life, I would live in that villa. Everything was perfect, down to the lizard that lived on the bathroom shutter. I cannot think of... More

Although we didn't actually get to stay here as they were fully booked we did visit for the afternoon and the staff at the resort were very friendly and helpful. The resort is set in a quiet location close to Sopers Hole /ferry dock in the West End giving access to St Thomas etc. They have around 9 villas of... More

This is a small resort with only 7 beautifully decorated but simple units, a top notch chef (they only serve dinner Wed - Sat nights and Sunday brunch). We go to Tortola to swim (but not in a pool). This was the one spot on the island perfect for swimming in the ocean when a storm had the surfers thrilled... More

My fiance-turned-husband and I stayed at Frenchmans for 7 days at the end of February. We got married on the beach at Frenchmans. The view from the point is nothing short of amazing! We stayed in Star Fruit, a 1-bedroom cottage. The resort is great--it isn't crowded because there are only 9 cottages. There is a lot of beautiful foliage... More

Frenchman's is a BVI gem a couple of minutes from Soper's Hole in the West End of Tortola in the BVI. The hotel is a collection of newly-renovated free-standing cottages (i.e. no shared floors/ceilings/walls). Our villa, the "Sugar Apple," was a 2 bedroom with a kitchenette and two decks. We only stayed 4 nights -- if we had stayed longer,... More

We just returned from 10 wonderful days at Frenchman's and could not be more pleased with this magical resort. The villas are superb, beautifully appointed with lovely and comfortable bedding and breathtaking views. The staff bends over backwards to make your stay relaxing and enjoyable and the food is just to die for. The hot breakfast is awesome but the... More
