Never in my 59 years have I experienced such a degree of peace, tranquillity and beauty so intense that words and photos will fail to describe it. “Blessed” (Baraka-a well chosen name for this villa!) almost comes close…thank you!
Amazing

I can't say enough about Baraka Point. It is a beautiful place, extremely accommodating for our small group, but I could envision a much larger group or sharing it with another family. The layout is perfect for kids and they have everything you need in regards to swim toys, easy steps in the pool, high chair, crib linens. They have a great movie collection, a wonderful entertainment and sound system. They also have a wonderful book and puzzle collection. Since our kids are very young, we found it easiest to just stay at the villa and make short trips to the beach rather than take them to various places around the island. We didn't feel we were missing anything because we knew the best was all right in our surroundings.
The staff, Aaron and Kim, were wonderful. Originally we signed up for a few dinners,but we ended up having them help us find groceries, prepare extra lunches and dinners. Food at Biras Creek Restaurant was a little disappointing this year (in terms of presentation, flavor, and price) after eating Aaron and Kim's meals in the surroundings of Baraka Point. After our one meal out, we cancelled all other outside dinner reservations and just booked them with Aaron and Kim. We were 100% satisfied with every meal (and I think we have high expectations) There food was always fresh, original, healthy and very flavorful. The portions weren't too large, always just enough and the presentation always beautiful. Kim did a yoga class for us in the pavilion one morning which was wonderful. I had a facial and my husband had two massages. Kim is one of the best we've experienced! The grounds were beautiful and the day we left they were planting about 200 more plants. The cleaning staff came everyday and they kept everything feeling very clean.
Absolutely Incredible!

I was just going to send you a message and let you know how Baraka Point was.....ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE! Baraka Point is THE place to go. I can't begin to describe everything and do it justice...the views, beaches, snorkeling & diving, massages and sunsets. Oh, and did I mention the food?! Not one of us were ready to leave on Monday and I think if it hadn't been booked we would have stayed longer!
The couple (Aaron and Kim) that run the house and handle all activities and cooking were delightful and wonderful cooks. They prepared meals that looked and tasted like they were out of Bon Appetite! It was definitely a Christmas we will always remember....and a place we plan to return to again soon.
Another great vacation.

We just landed 2 hours ago and we wanted to let you know how pleased we were with our stay. The new spa pavilion and sun deck are awesome additions. Our weather was superb. The most important part of our trip was all the wonderful, first class attention we received from Aaron and Kim. Their cooking as you know is out of this world. Kim’s massages were the best-we have been many places and had many massages, but no one compares! What a wonderful relaxing time being in her care.
As you can see we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves…Kim and Aaron are wonderful with our children. We are already looking forward to returning to Virgin Gorda next year. We feel blessed to have come across your beautiful home because Baraka Point provides us with quality family time and memories to last a life time.
Thanks for yet another great vacation experience at Baraka Point!
We will definitely be returning...
