We came to the island for business reasons and the Villa offered comfort, space and tranquillity in the evening times to recover from the hot day at work. The Villa has a guest: Mr Kat. He is unique, very affectionate and he deserve all the attentions he demands - even though perhaps a bit too much, he is needy indeed!
I recommend this stay, and I would really love to come back for just leisure. Ensure you have a good car to go around the islands, those hills are steep.
We visited Tortola for a wedding and rented the villa via the internet. The views are spectacular and the rooms very clean and spacious. The linen and towels were exceptional and the villa has a real home from home feel.
The communication from Guy could not be faulted and we would happily recommend this villa to others that understand the villas on Caribbean islands are not easy to access due to the local road infrastructure being different to European expectations. A little gem that we loved!
We stayed in Gryphon's Lair for a week in February and the place is even more beautiful than the pictures show. The views are outstanding and the villa itself is clean, comfortable and just perfect in every way. Gus and Laura thought of everything, provided top quality amenities, and were always readily available to answer the few questions we had (i.e. will be able to watch the Superbowl? Yes and Go Pats! ) If you are looking for a peaceful, beautiful, and comfortable place to spend your vacation, you will not be sorry if you choose Gryphon's Lair.

It was our first trip to Tortola and it was wonderful. The views from the villa were incredible and we really enjoyed Lambert Beach which is a short drive down the hill. Having beach chairs, cooler and other beach toys made the stay even more enjoyable.
We found the owner Guy wonderful to deal with and he was always very responsive to any questions we had. I would highly recommend this villa. The owners guide at the villa was very helpful for day trip recommendations and restaurants.
We ( my husband and I and another couple) enjoyed an amazing weeklong stay at Gryphon's Lair after Bare boating for 5 days. Guy was quick to respond to all our questions. The layout provides privacy yet the common areas were perfect for sharing. All bedrooms had a breathtaking view of Lambert Beach and Guana. The kitchen was well stocked with all the cookware we needed. We used the grill several times also. The pool was a bonus end to each fabulous day. The notebook provided gave us lots of good tips for beaches, snorkeling and restaurant choices, I would also like to suggest using Ms. Penguin who makes frozen meals for charters. The meals were reasonable and we spent more time enjoying the pool and our view than in the kitchen!The location was perfect - away from it all yet close enough to get to any bay or beach within 30 minutes. We thought about taking some of the suggested day trips but there was too much to do and see on Tortola - we hope to return!

Stayed for a week with our boys who are 14,12, & 9. The view of Lambert Beach is nothing short of amazing, enjoying the sounds of the ocean with a morning cup of coffee is spectacular. Our boys loved the pool, snorkeling gear, Lizards and resident cat who visits on occasion.
The East end is quiet and peaceful but close enough to Roadtown to pick up supplies. The owners have set the home up to make the most of the environment and outdoors. Guy offered numerous tips on beaches, activities and restaurants. You won't be disappointed if you stay here!

My husband, sister, and brother-in-law absolutely loved our stay at Gryphon’s Lair Villa. From the moment we booked, Guy was super helpful. When we arrived we couldn't believe our eyes; the home was gorgeous, comfortable, clean, well appointment, and perfect for two couples. The views from every corner of the house were breathtaking. The kitchen was well stocked with all the needed tools for cooking but we did venture out often to try all the great local restaurants nearby. We used the pool a lot and absolutely loved Lambert Beach right in front of the villa. The complimentary beach chairs, beach towels and cooler were a nice touch as well and the kayaks were a lot of fun. We truly loved everything about this place. Can’t wait to return to Tortola and stay here again! We are recommending this villa to all of our family and friends!
