After a 2-night (pre-sail) stay at Sebastian's I can echo almost everything written here. Of course you get what you pay for (when you plan in advance), and Sebastian's gave us an amazing value for what we paid for our "garden courtyard" room. Tortola may not have the "service with a smile" cuture you can find some other places, but... more

"Passengers on the port side can see the gigantic waves," the pilot announced as we made our descent to San Juan. This prepared us for what we could expect in Tortola. But a driver met us at the airport and after some harrowing switch backs we arrived at Sebastian's. The front desk is the counter for a liitle convenience store... more

We just got back from our trip to the BVI's sailing on a catamaran for a week. The 3 day stay beforehand at Sebastian's was perfect! I agree with other reviews that you need a beachfront room. We had a garden room booked until we got there and decided to upgrade to beachfront. Rooms were clean and spacious, and just... more

This hotel is OK if you are beachfront but staff are largely disinterested and rude as though the guests are too much trouble. The rather vague receptionist didn't smile once and didn't make us feel remotely welcome. I disliked having to pay 2 dollars for some hot water so that we could use the teabags provided in the room, and... more

We just returned from a sailing trip to the BVI. One night we decided to get off the boat and stay at a hotel. We chose Sebastians based on the proximity to our sailboat, review by Fodors and recommendation of a BVI native. We asked for a 1 bedroom suite. For the price we paid, we were expecting much better!... more

My wife and I just returned from a 4 nights stay at Sebastians and would definitly recommend it to couples looking for a relaxing, low-key getaway on the NW Side of Tortola. Our Patio from beachfront room #3 was approx 75 ft from the water's edge with a great view of Jost Van Dyke. Bomba's and Sugar Mill are within... more

We are staying in the Garden room of this "hotel" and this is the most terrible hotel we ever stayed in. There are no views or balconies as some other reviewer mentioned, it's just a really small studio room with 2 double beds joint together fridge and a shower. It's full of mosquitoes and roosters will wake you up every... more

We got to the BVI late at night without our bags, obviously not the hotel's fault. We had no problems getting our room around 11pm. I think we had the worst room in the hotel, only a door handle key lock, all the other rooms had pad locks, no TV, broken window panes, miscitoes and rosters at four in the... more

We stayed at Sebastians for a week in January, 2006, room #12. Incidentally, we came on the ferry from St. Thomas which was a fun alternative to flying to Beef I. We had visited BVI three times before as sailors and wanted to try a more relaxed vacation. The atmosphere at Sebastians was somewhat unfriendly at first but became warmer... more

My husband and I spent 8 nights in their Gardenia Room which is located on the second level in the middle of the building (there are 9 rooms in total). The room was lovely and spacious with two big sliding doors and a decent size balcony - big enough that I even thought of having a massage person come and... more
