Cypress House
is located near The
Baths on Virgin Gorda, the third largest of the British Virgin
Islands, with a resident population of only 2,500 people. It is a
tranquil, unspoiled island that has a year round temperature in the
80's. |
|
|

|
There
are fabulous, boulder strewn, white sand beaches,
national parks for walking, water sports, sail or motorboats for charter,
deep sea fishing, excellent scuba diving, opportunities to windsurf, water
ski, or horseback ride. |

|
 |
But,
perhaps just as important are the things Virgin Gorda does not have: no
high rises, no neon signs, no traffic lights, no casinos, no golf, no
movie theaters. Just several excellent restaurants and informal night
clubs featuring local bands and performers. |
