08-29-2006
BRADES, Montserrat: Travelers looking to get away from big, bustling resorts can look to the ideal alternative relaxing in the comfort and tranquil surroundings of their own private Montserrat villa. Known as the "Emerald Isle of the Caribbean," Montserrat offers travelers a "home-away-from-home" atmosphere with a range of affordable villa accommodations and warm Caribbean hospitality.
Surrounded by mountains and blue sea vistas, curvy slopes, deep valleys and fertile fields, Montserrat's villas provide guests with all the conveniences, amenities and comforts of home such as spacious bedrooms, well-furnished areas, fully appointed kitchens, satellite television, DVD player and, if needed, cooking and baby-sitting. Villa pool decks, patios and/or terraces, offer guests breathtaking views of dark sand beaches, lush green mountains or the Soufrière Hills Volcano.
"Whether looking for a cozy family setting or a luxurious five to six bedroom rental property, Montserrat's villas offer prime accommodations for couples and families looking for a serene Caribbean vacation with all the amenities from home without having to spend a lot of money," said Ernestine Cassell, Director of Tourism, Montserrat Tourist Board.
Affordable Montserrat villa vacations range from US$1,500 to $2,000 per week during high season (mid-November through mid-April) and US$750 to US$1,500 per week during low season (mid-April through mid-November) for a four-bedroom, four-bathroom villa with a housekeeper, swimming pool, wet bar, cable TV, CD player and washer and dryer.
Montserrat, a lush green and mountainous island of approximately 39 square miles, lies in the Eastern Caribbean chain of islands. Known fondly as the "Emerald Isle" of the Caribbean, this pear-shaped island is a traveler's paradise for nature lovers, divers, adventurers, family and villa vacationers, and honeymooners.
This British overseas territory boasts the spectacular Soufrière Hills Volcano, a modern day Pompeii in the form of its buried former capital city Plymouth, alongside lush, green mountains, world-class nature trails, deserted dark sand beaches, untouched reefs and a quiet friendly charm reminiscent of the way the Caribbean used to be.
