Red Rock
Villa

Masterfully designed with robust construction, Red Rock Villa is nestled in the red boulders of Coppermine Ridge. Perched at one of the highest points in The Valley, the villa offers breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean to the east and the Caribbean Sea to the west, treating residents and guests to stunning sunrises and sunsets over neighboring islands. Embraced by refreshing trade winds, the villa’s secluded setting creates a tranquil sanctuary. Just minutes away are some of the British Virgin Islands’ most stunning beaches—Spring Bay, Savannah Bay, and Valley Trunk—while two nearby national parks, The Baths and the Coppermine Ruins, provide convenient access to Virgin Gorda’s natural wonders. Though private and serene, Red Rock Villa remains close to essential amenities, with the Virgin Gorda Yacht Harbour, ferry terminal, airstrip, and Spanish Town’s commercial center all within a five-minute drive. Exclusive destinations like Necker Island, Saba Rock, and the Bitter End Yacht Club lie just 20 minutes away, adding to the appeal.

Completed in 2012, the villa was designed by German architect Hubert Horbach, with a vision of a residence that harmonizes with the surroundings while meeting the highest standards of structural integrity and exceeding standard hurricane codes, including interlocking blocks from Greek manufacturer YTONG, which provide strength, fire protection, and insulation. A central open-air courtyard with a serene koi pond and an outdoor dining space creates a seamless flow between indoor and outdoor living. With over 3,800 sf of indoor living areas and 3,200 sf of outdoor areas, the villa offers generous space for relaxation and entertainment. A shared living and dining area features walls of sliding glass doors that provide panoramic ocean views and ample natural light. The limestone-clad chef’s kitchen includes mahogany-topped cabinetry and Viking appliances including wine coolers, a six-burner stove, double ovens, and a spacious layout designed for multiple cooks.

Two guest bedrooms appointed with walk-in closets, Balinese stone basins, and German-made Dornbracht faucets, plus an office, and a spa pavilion, complete with a Jacuzzi and Zen garden round out the main level. A staircase leading to the mezzanine level reveals an entertainment loft and a primary bedroom boasting floor-to-ceiling glass doors, providing stunning views of the Atlantic and Caribbean waters. The lower level includes laundry facilities, storage rooms, and a staff bathroom. Just beyond the courtyard lies a Teak deck surrounding a shimmering, infinity-edge pool with unobstructed views. Equipped with modern amenities, the villa offers separately controlled air conditioning for each bedroom, a 45KW propane generator, a 52,000-gallon cistern, and a private septic system to ensure self-sufficiency. The lush, professionally designed grounds are a focal point, with a blend of native plants, exotic trees, a Balinese sculpture nestled under an ancient Indian rubber tree, and multiple Zen-inspired spaces. With its unparalleled views and luxurious amenities abound, this property is an extraordinary retreat in the heart of Virgin Gorda.

SPANISH TOWN, BVI. Located on Virgin Gorda, Spanish Town is the second-largest settlement in the British Virgin Islands (BVI), exuding a laid-back charm. Known for its colorful local culture and welcoming marina, this charming town serves as a hub for yacht charters and travelers exploring the island. The town boasts various shops, local restaurants, and bars, as well as the Virgin Gorda Yacht Harbor, where visitors can refuel or enjoy waterfront dining. Its convenient location also makes it an ideal base for exploring the island’s top beaches, each offering a unique coastal experience.

Spring Bay, just north of The Baths, is a natural playground of smooth granite boulders, shallow rock pools, and nooks perfect for snorkeling and swimming. A little further along the coast is Savannah Bay, one of the longest and most tranquil beaches on Virgin Gorda, with soft, white sand stretching for nearly a mile. The exclusive Valley Trunk Bay is framed by lush vegetation and is frequented by private villas and upscale visitors. Residents of Spanish Town can also enjoy easy access to the North Sound Channel with prestigious island developments and resorts, including Necker Island, Saba Rock, Bitter End Yacht Club, and Oil Nut Bay.

BRITISH VIRGIN ISLANDS. Originally populated by Amerindians as far back as 1500 BC, the British Virgin Islands were first sighted by Europeans on Columbus’s second voyage to the Americas. Most of the major powers of the era vied for control of the region, which eventually came under control of the British Empire in the late 1600s. Sugar cane was the primary economic driver for the British Overseas Territory until the 1960s, when a turn to tourism and financial services elevated the islands to one of the wealthiest areas in the Caribbean.

Due to the area’s abundant natural beauty, tourism accounts for roughly 40% of GDP in the BVI, but its status as a prime offshore financial center generates the bulk of the region’s wealth. More than half of the government’s revenue comes directly from licensing fees for offshore companies, and the area is considered a tax haven due to its business-friendly policies. Indeed, nearly 45% of the world’s offshore companies were formed in the BVI according to KPMG, one of the “Big Four” professional services companies.
