Sugar Mill Hotel

Such a sweet, and comfortable spot. The place is small so you really get to know the owners and other guests. Spending time at the beach bar, the pool, restaurant, or just in our room, it was all very relaxing. The food was delicious and the menu has something for everyone. We were there a week and didn't eat the same thing twice. Would highly recommend the island tour with Rupert. He takes you to all the hidden spots. The massage with Margorie was fantastic. The staff is very friendly.

Really warm and welcoming location -- and owners/staff. Beautiful (albeit small) beach and pool. Comfortable suite complete with refrigerator, coffee/tea maker, outdoor shower, balcony, and separate bedroom. Made for a special mother-daughter trip.

It can be difficult to find accommodations in the Virgin Islands. Prices are often higher than in other Caribbean islands, or if they are in the lower tier, the rooms can be bare-bones: adequate, but not luxurious or comfort-focused. Sugar Mill Resort strikes that rare balance between affordability and luxury, feeling like a splurge without the upper-price-range rates. Moreover, they do it while offering a personal and welcoming atmosphere; you get all the benefits and privacy of a hotel stay, but with the warmth of a bed-and-breakfast experience. First impressions can make or break a vacation stay, and Sugar Mill Resort really understands this. Upon our arrival in the early evening (after a very long and stressful day of travel), Andrea welcomed us with gracious hospitality. She had already reserved us a table for dinner, and she checked us in efficiently while we sipped our complimentary Prosecco and took advantage of the cool towels offered. Another staff member brought our luggage to our room and showed us where to find all the amenities. Then we headed back to the restaurant and had our first of three outstanding dinners - every night we tried a different entree and appetizer, and we were never disappointed. (My favorite entree was the fish pie, with a puff-pastry crust. But really, everything was delicious.) Our room was beautiful and spotlessly clean; housekeeping came every morning and refreshed our space. The bottled water, coffee, and ice maker were so useful - we could start our mornings in a leisurely fashion without foregoing our morning coffee. We did add on an island tour (worthwhile!) and a rental car, so we got to see more of the island than just our little corner of paradise. Andrea and Rupert made all of those experiences pleasant and easy. The beach picnic lunch provided with our tour was delicious and decadent, with bubbly wine and dessert included. It seemed that all our needs had been anticipated. We only stayed three nights at Sugar Mill, on the front end of a yacht charter, but it was such a lovely experience that I intend to come back for at least a week next time. What a great and relaxing way to begin a vacation in the BVI! Thanks, Sugar Mill, for exceeding our expectations.
