Guestbook
We rented Quart-A-Nancy Point pretty regularly from 2005 – 2010, however, Hurricane Earl made a direct hit on the BVIs during August 2010 and while the house was essentially untouched, we stopped renting for several years as we made repairs to the jetty and grounds. Additionally, we were impacted by Hurricanes Irma and Maria during Sept 2017 and were unable to rent again until December 2018. Thus we don’t have a lot of recent guest comments. We have undergone major repairs to the dock and significant repairs and renovations to infrastructure and the house and the everything is finally back in tip-top condition and available to renters. We are adding new guest comments here as our rental operation gets restarted.

We spent a delightful week at Quart-a-Nancy Point and absolutely loved the house, view, and easy access to the water (but note that if you are mobility challenged this would not be the place for you — it;s a short but steep walk down to the water). Highlights include the stunning panoramic view from the porch, well-equipped kitchen, and generous amenities (snorkel gear, kayak, dinghy, games, and books). Despite recovering damage to the near-shore coral from recent hurricanes, we saw turtles, eagle- and stingrays, barracuda, sharks, octopus, and many fish. We had some logistical challenges in terms of transportation and provisioning that were undoubtedly due to our lack of familiarity with the BVI and Cooper Island – we strongly advise making arrangements for both well in advance, and provisioning generously for your time there. We ended up enjoying quite a few meals at the Cooper Island Beach Club, which were very nice (if a mite pricey). We also found the CIBC staff to be generous and helpful with advice and contact information. Many thanks to Fred and his family for sharing their wonderful house with us – we hope to be back one day!

Fred and Candia –
This trip to Quart-A-Nancy has truly been a vacation of a lifetime! It is going to be very difficult to pick up and leave tomorrow morning. The house and all the accommodations have been outstanding! All the comforts of home perched on a cliff in paradise. We had everything we needed during our two week stay. And this was the first visit for our family to the BVIs. And what an introduction! Everyone had a blast. Highlights included:
- Lots of snorkeling off the dock with the turtles, rays, and many fish
- Kayak trip over to south side of Salt Island
- Hikes to the top of the peak behind house and to the Haulover
- Rented a boat to explore Virgin Gorda
- Day sail and snorkel trip to Norman and Peter Island
- Christmas Eve and Christmas dinner at the Beach Club
- Crazy New Year’s Eve party at Beach Club
- Steak and lobster dinner on the porch
- Three mornings with rainbows including a full double rainbow our last morning
- And of course, much food, drinks, relaxation, and watching the boats in the bay from this incredible porch!
So thank you for sharing your home with us in this incredible part of the world. You allowed us to have some great family memories. Warren has been terrific getting us settled in, and when we needed him. We all hope to have a chance to spend some time here again.

What an incredible vacation! This was our first trip to the BVI but it most definitely won’t be our last! From snorkeling right off the dock to venturing out to the Baths at Virgin Gorda, and everything in between – we had a blast! Highlights from the trip:
- Full Rainbows
- Snorkeling off the Quart-A-Nancy dock
- The Amazing View
- Winning darts at the Beach Club
- Swimming with sea turtles at Peter Island
- Making Memories to last a lifetime
Thank you to Steve and Lisa for this amazing vacation (and the owners of this incredible house)

This trip was the most incredible experience. From the breathtaking views, salt air, screaming baby goats, and spectacular snorkeling. We cannot thank you enough for letting us experience your home. I wish we could buy it! We hope to come back again soon!

Q a N is not fancy. You have to be mindful of your electric use (though we put in several days telecommuting) The house is older with character, colorful paint, cute hermit crabs and great plants and birds. The beds are comfy and completely furnished with everything a family could need. Books, games, all the cookware We lacked for nothing. The rooms of the house are large and pleasant with ceiling fans. But the outdoor living room and courtyard is where we spent all of our time.
The best part of Q-A-N is just relaxing to the rhythm of the island. Coffee, swim, watch the boats drop their moorings and sail off, You can jump off the jetty with sea turtles, We kayaked with a dolphin. You can snorkel the whole Bay shoreline. Eat lunch, paint/read/nap Snorkel Cistern Rock -One of the Bvi’s top ten snorkel spots right on the other side of the bay. Go to the Beach club for happy hour or have rum drinks on the patio and watch the sunset and the mega yachts sail by. Once you are on Island, you won’t want to leave, but you can arrange trips with the dive shop on Cooper. We’ll be back!
Would I recommend this vacation rental to my best friend? Absolutely!

We had 12 glorious days at Quart-A-Nancy Point. What a fabulous spot. This was truly the most relaxing vacation we have ever taken. We have sailed to Cooper Island for the last 10 years, and decided to rent a house this time. The best decision ever! The views are spectacular, the hermit crabs very entertaining, snorkeling and kayaking for exercise, and enjoying reading on the beautiful outdoor living room porch (love the hammock!). Everything about this home is ideal. We’ll be back. Thank you to Fred and Candia for allowing us to rent your paradise.
