Baraka Point is an exclusive 9500 sq. ft. private villa set amidst two
acres of tropical gardens on one of Virgin Gorda's most spectacular
snorkelling beaches. Offering barefoot luxury, a private chef and
unparalleled sea views, a stay at Baraka Point promises to be an
unforgettable holiday experience.
On your arrival at Baraka Point you will be greeted with a welcome drink
and escorted down a serpentine path through lush palm gardens out of which
rise the villa's distinctive copper peaked pavilions.
Three of the pavilions house five separate bedroom suites, and a fourth
larger pavilion incorporates the living, dining and entertainment areas of
the villa. This set up lends itself well to hosting group holidays,
weddings, retreats and special celebrations of any kind.
Designed with the discerning traveler in mind, Baraka Point's contrasting
colours and textures form the backdrop for a unique blend of interior
furnishings, lighting and accessories sourced from around the world to
create the villa's exotic style.
The main pavilion has a large wrap-around coral stone terrace leading on
to an infinity edge pool and a second covered alfresco dining terrace. The
pool is surrounded by an extensive grass lawn that is framed by the giant
granite boulders that are Virgin Gorda's geological trademark.
A wooden sea deck set in the boulders and illuminated with large copper
torches at night invites you to enjoy cocktails and 230 degree views of
azure seas and the neighbouring islands while watching the sun set as the
waves lap gently beneath you.
The Villa
Baraka Point is a haven of peace and tranquillity created with natural
materials including hard woods, copper and native stone. Incense diffuses
warm soothing scents, and the gentle trickle of a water feature provides a
peaceful and sensually engaging environment that has been created to feel
like your home away from home.
The Living room is a beautifully decorated space with a 28-foot ceiling.
Enjoy afternoon tea or listen to music in this most enchanting of spaces…
Baraka Point has an eclectic mix of 300 CDs ranging from contemporary world
music and chill-out after-hours sounds to pop, jazz, soul, and classical.
Recline on the giant hand-made silk cushions that are scattered
throughout the media room/library while watching one of 50 DVDs on the
villa's widescreen digital TV. There is also a Playstation 2 console,
various board games, and hundreds of books of all kinds.
Once you have decided on a good book, pour yourself a drink from the bar
(complimentary ice tea is on tap all day) or have the chef prepare you a
special Baraka Point cocktail to be enjoyed on one of the living room's
three Balinese day beds, on a pool lounger or out on the sea deck…
Baraka Point doesn't have to be all peace and relaxation. By night the
house is lit with lanterns, candles and torches-the perfect ambience for a
party, or a romantic interlude...hire a band and dance the night away on the
terrace under a star-studded sky-the house was designed for living!
Dining
Whether you wish to do the cooking yourself or have Baraka Point's
private chef do the catering for your holiday, the villa has a professional
kitchen featuring a full complement of dinner and glassware, stainless steel
appliances, a well-stocked pantry and wine cellar. Baraka Point offers
various meal plan options and sample menus for you to review prior to making
a booking.
Baraka Point also offers several dining venues on the property. You may
choose to dine in the formal dining room with large windows and dramatic
vistas of the Sir Francis Drake channel...
…or you might prefer to eat al fresco on the main dining terrace or
perhaps on the beach under a canopy of stars!
Alternatively you may design your own menu to be served on your private
en-suite terrace overlooking the moonlit water. Wherever you choose to dine,
you will enjoy attentive, personalized service that promises to make your
dining experiences special throughout your stay.
There is also a wood burning pizza oven on the property. Along side the
chef, you can enjoy hours of preparation and 600 degree temperatures during
the cooking phase of this adventure (not for the light-hearted culinary
artist!).
If pizza-making proves too overwhelming rest assured you can enjoy
wonderful cuisine at Giorgio's Table-a fine Italian restaurant only 10
minutes drive from Baraka Point. Other excellent restaurants on Virgin Gorda
are listed in a Welcome folder which can be found in your suite upon your
arrival.
Swimming
When it comes to swimming and relaxing at Baraka Point, guests can choose
from a number of options. There is a 30 x 15 foot infinity edge pool, a
smaller plunge pool, direct access to a sun-kissed secluded beach at Baraka
Point as well as several white-sand beaches a short drive from the villa.
Spend your days soothing your mind and body on one of Baraka Point's many
pool-side padded teak lounge chairs…the sun-drenched terrace has several "sunbrellas"
and is cooled by the prevailing winds making your outdoor experience
comfortable at all times.
When you have had enough of relaxing and watching the view of the pool's
edge disappearing into the sea…
Baraka Point has direct access to one of Virgin Gorda's best snorkelling
beaches…just take a walk through the garden and down the villa's native
stone steps right onto the secluded beach.
On Virgin Gorda, soft coral-sand beaches abound…hire a car or jeep and
try a different one for every day of your stay or explore the three beaches
that are recommended in your Welcome folder
Suites
Baraka Point features five bedroom suites with separate entrances. Each
of the suites has an air-conditioned sleeping area, seating area, dressing
area and en-suite bathroom as well as a private deck or terrace offering
panoramic views of the Caribbean Sea.
The Kerala Suite is a heavenly adult retreat featuring rich colours and a
giant hand-crafted four poster bed that has quite possibly the best view in
the BVI.
The Kerala Suite also features its own plunge pool surrounded by a small
sun terrace perfect for sharing a romantic moment while watching a
spectacular BVI sunset.
All five en-suite bathrooms at Baraka Point are done in playful Caribbean
coloured glass mosaic tiles and have large indoor showers; two also have
outdoor showers, and there is a bathtub in the Mandarin Suite.
Despite being individually-decorated, the five suites at Baraka Point are
similarly appointed featuring quality linens and towels, TV/DVD players,
stereos, mini-fridges, and thatched ceiling fans. The Indochine and
Rajisthan suites also have smaller, adjoining rooms for children.
In addition to their exquisite décor, all suites at Baraka Point are
positioned to capture restful ocean views…and when you close your eyes the
sound of the waves will lull you to sleep at the end of every sun-filled
day.
