Villa Heaven's Gate...Coral Bay

[philbetm]

Heaven's Gate is the home we are staying at in June. It is four bedrooms...but none of the pics on various sites shows the 4th bedroom. It always just shows how 3 of them look. Has anyone stayed there that could share info. on that 4th one? Hoping it compares equally to the other 3 ! We are going to be a group of 4 adult couples...and don't want anyone to feel slighted. Appreciate any info. anyone might have.... p.s. do know that it is 3 kings and 1 queen.

I'd say from watching this video, no one will be slighted as it looks very well appointed!!

That villa and it's views are gorgeous....
I was thinking the location was more south shore, but I see it is around Coral Bay..
I think the sunset pic threw me.
The house is beautiful~

It is beautiful....and the views are so unbelieveable! Have never stayed in this area ...think it will be very quiet and private. That is what we are all looking for and we really want to try the restaurants over there. The only one's we have ever been to on that side are Skinny Leg's and Shipwreck Landing.
Had to have serious unexpected surgery last Monday morning. Then ended back up in Hospital ER last night with stomach infection/virus that I picked up in the hospital before being released. Really going to need this vacation now! Got to recoup.

I stayed there one time. The fourth bedroom is awesome. The bath is outside with a view of the bay. The 4th bedroom is also VERY private with a nice private veranda.
The only bad thing I have to say about the condo is where did they get that couch. Ugly and uncomfortable..

PM me if you want snorkeling advice for Hurricane. Almost no one goes snorkeling there.

Thanks hockeyboy09......so glad to hear from someone that has been in the home. Fears are eased !

We have only snorkeled Salt Pond and Lameshure in Coral Bay on previous trips. Hubby says Hurricane Hole is on his list. Is it worth it?? Can you really walk to a beach from the Villa ? He and some of the others like to take early morning snorkels before breakfast. I am more of a North Shore Beaches kind of girl.

Thanks,

Sherry, we are there a little before you. Will post a review and you can PM me if you have any specific questions.

Sounds great ! Will look forward to your review. We are going to have 8 adults staying...so knowing some things ahead will be most helpful.

(Hope I'm not too late to post for your visit.) Addressing the 4th BR specifically: We are right now staying at Heavens Gate, and my wife and I are *in* the 4th BR. It's lovely. French doors to East where sunrises are spectacular, nice queen (not king) bed, 2 side tables with lamps, desk, side chair, stuffed leather chair, ceiling fan with light, full big closet with 2 clothes rods, full bath with glass door shower. All in all a wonderful room. No window, but the French doors make up for any light needed. Owners are *very* attentive to our needs during our stay. I would give Heavens Gate 5 stars!

Thanks Don... Our trip was actually in June of last year. Our group of 8 loved it there ! The views were amazing !! Bedrooms worked out fine for all of us. It was unusually windy, cool and rainy the week we stayed...so none of us used the beautiful pool...the water was just too cold. It is a beautiful home and we would stay there again if we decided on Coral Bay.
