Get a luxury break in the Virgin Islands – on the cheap

bvi

If you think of the British Virgin Islands and think of a millionaire’s paradise, it might be time to think again… the local tourist board is promoting a number of smaller, intimate properties that offer an affordable option for visiting these jewels of the Caribbean.

The ‘Jewels of the BVI’ are a select group of 30 hotels, spread across a number of islands from the Caribbean flair of Tortola (above), the tranquillity of Anegada, the rugged beauty of Jost Van Dyke or the charm and history of Virgin Gorda – and with flights, you can bag a week in any of them for less than £1,500, including flights.

Example prices include seven nights’ self-catering at the Mango Bay Resort on the Western side of Virgin Gorda from £1,265 and seven nights’ room only at the Sugar Mill Hotel on Tortola from £1,350 per person. Both prices include return flights from the UK.
