Falmouth Harbour Villa | Luxurious Oceanfront Villa with Stunning Views Over Montserrat

5 Bedroom Villa in Falmouth Harbour

Shell Villa is tucked away inside Turtle Bay on the south coast of Antigua, just west of Falmouth Harbour. Enjoy utter privacy and quiet as you sit on its large ocean-front deck and gaze at the spectacular sunsets over gently smoking Montserrat. Surrounded by stunning vistas of ocean and the gentle slopes surrounding Rendezvous Bay, not a single building mars the view - a very private piece of paradise.
Shell Villa has been approved by the Government as COVID compliant.
Guests will be met at the airport by Valentino, who will drive you to the Villa, or guide you if you hire a car. The property has four double bedrooms, all with air conditioning and ensuite bathrooms. Beds can be made up as king size or full size twins as preferred. The fifth bedroom has full size bunk beds. Shell Villa has a large kitchen with fridge/freezer, dishwasher, washing machine and a spacious living/dining area with high speed internet. Shell Cottage has a living room with porch and a small kichenette with half bath.
The Villa is fully equipped and furnished and has weekly garden, pool and maid service. The gardens and pool (with sun deck and barbecue) are planted with gorgeous bougainvillaea, hibiscus, and palms.
Self sustaining and environmentally friendly, Shell Villa has solar panels with a backup generator and also has mains electricity. Voltage is US style 110/60 cycles. Additionally, its large water cistern enables you to enjoy pure rainwater for drinking, showering etc.
The gentle lap of waves on the shore lulls you to sleep, and greets you again as you wake to that wonderful Caribbean morning light. A short stroll along Turtle Bay there is a small pebble beach with sea shells and sea birds aplenty.
The Villa and the Cottage feature original art works by Jenny Freestone, co-owner with her husband, David. Jenny is a well-known printmaker whose work is exhibited in a number of art collections in the US, including the Library of Congress. Original water colours of local scenes were painted by her when the family lived in Antigua in the ‘80s. See further www.jennyfreestone.com
From 2022 Shell Cottage is also available to rent with Shell Villa. .WE DO NOT RENT THE COTTAGE SEPARATELY FROM THE VILLA. It has two bedrooms on the second floor with outstanding views across Turtle Bay to Rendezvous. The master bedroom has ensuite access and the second bedroom is a bunk room with two full size single bunks and shared access to the bathroom. On the ground floor there is an airy living room with open porch and sun deck as well as WC and kitchenette with fridge microwave and toaster. It is a hop and a skip to the pool and sun deck of the main villa which has a full size well-equipped, chef grade kitchen and dining capacity for 10. The use of Shell Cottage will not be available to parties of six or less without the payment of $200 per night supplement (contact the owners direct)
While the time you spend at the villa ensures quiet seclusion, there is plenty to do in the nearby environment. Falmouth Harbour and Nelsons Dockyard in English Harbour (a UNESCO World Heritage site) are a five-minute drive from the villa. They are visited by some of the most fabulous yachts in the world - catch them with binoculars as they majestically sail across the ocean view from Shell Villa.The constant flow of private yachts, their crew and guests, ensure a lively social scene and a plentiful supply of excellent restaurants, cafes and bars in these harbours.
For those who are athletic, more adventurous and energetic, there are some spectacular walks along the coast to totally deserted beaches, and wonderful views from some of the historic ruins around English Harbour and Shirley Heights. There are also tennis and squash courts nearby. as well as horseriding, scuba-diving and sailing.
The base minimum daily rate for the Villa - which varies depending on the season - is for two guests only. All additional guests are $99 per person per night extra.

Summary: We had a great stay at Shell Villa! The owners, David and Jenny, were very responsive when setting up our stay. The property managers, Nathan and Clare, did an outstanding job responding to any questions we had during our stay. We really enjoyed the pool and watching the yachts and sailboats come in and out of Falmouth Harbour. Great accomodations that meet your expectations!.

Summary: From the booking process to the communication from Jenny and David and all the way through leaving the island was perfect. Valentino greeted us as the airport and was a wealth of knowledge. Clare and Nathan welcomed us at the home and gave us additional guidance which helped greatly. While driving was unique, the rental jeeps got us across the island. The home was perfectly located, no more than 35 minutes from anything and had everything we needed. The pool was used every day and the views were unimaginable each and every night. Highly recommend staying at Shell Villa and if we return, we will look here first. Thank you again to everyone, it was a perfect holiday because of the attention by all involved. Only bad part was returning to 22-degree Fahrenheit back in the states. Chris

Summary: Everything about our stay at Shell Villa was fantastic. Great snorkeling, swimming, hiking, cooking, grilling, sleeping, resting, and visiting. Amazing star gazing, We were treated to Venus rising each evening and the beginnings of the Perseid meteor showers with shooting starts galore! Sunsets and shady cool mornings on the deck in the luscious tropical garden. The humming birds hummed as the ocean birds flew overhead and Montserrat floated over the horizon. Kitchen well stocked and open, perfect for families like us who don't like to eat out much. We had a couple of normal small minor issues and rental team was very speedy in response. All communication was swift and articulate. House is nicely renovated and new feeling. Nothing about this property rental disappointed! Thank you Jenny and David, and thanks also to Nathan and Clare!

Summary: We were at Shell Villa for 9 days with some friends and our infant son. The highlight of this property is its location and its views! Every day you get greeted with some amazing views of either Montserrat or the many sailboats that cruise through. David & Jenny were super communicative and provided us with copious amounts of information to prepare us for a seamless stay. Once on the ground,Clare and Nath were amazing local contacts who went above the call of duty to ensure a memorable stay. Can't recommend Shell Villa enough! We would definitely return.

Summary: Shell Villa is the perfect getaway ! Accommodations were exactly as described - well appointed kitchen with all the basic needs and then some. Appreciated a few first thing in the morning necessities provided at our arrival, as well as spices and condiments present/left for our use. The villa was exceptionally clean. The opportunity to have open air and a view of the sea all day (til the evening bugs arrived) was refreshing. Daily visits and feeding the bananquits and grackles, watching the ship/yacht activity ( phone app Boat Watch-Ship Tracking), the evening sounds of the frogs and the gentle roll of the tides all soothed our souls. A very peaceful, quiet spot. Roads in are pretty rough - be prepared and take your time driving in - we avoided night driving. Nathan, Clare and Shervon all made us feel welcome and were quick to respond to our questions/requests. It was the best time !

Summary: My husband and I and 6 friends stayed for a week. Always something to do but we made sure we were back to the house for sunset. Gorgeous sunsets. The pool is just the right size to have everyone relax in with drinks. Second time at this property and still love it.
