High House an Eco-Friendly Rental with Incredible Views
2 Bedrooms | 2 Baths | Sleeps 5 | Hot Tub | WIFI
An environmentally minded two bedroom, two bath vacation accommodation located at the top of Ajax Peak, overlooking Coral Bay and the British Virgin Islands. High House offers a quiet home to come to after a long day of fun in the sun.
Located above the quaint town of Coral Bay, and an easy five minutes from beautiful beaches, Ajax Peak is the perfect place to be; the trade winds provide a pleasant cooling breeze all day and the morning sunrise is an incredible sight. The shade in the late afternoon encourages drinks on the deck for very colorful sunsets and incredible views.
The gardens have many native plants, flowers, and fruit trees. Often, Hummingbirds and Bananaquits visit the bird feeders, and hawks can be seen soaring above.

Enjoy the View
Completely off the grid of water and power, the house uses solar energy to power everything inside, and it has done so since 1978. The water is collected via rainwater on the roof and is stored below the house. Rest assured, there is no shortage of power and water, with a full-size refrigerator and freezer, four burner stove, dishwasher, and many other modern appliances.
“Being “off the grid” resulted in our first island vacation where we never lost power once.”
In case of many shady days, a backup generator away from the house will come on and you won’t even hear it. High House allows you to take a Caribbean vacation and relax while making a lighter carbon footprint than at a busy resort.

“Did I mention the view?”
No picture comes close to capturing the panorama – easily 180 degrees. The main deck runs along the entire house. You can see from the West end of Tortola on the left to straight down Francis Drake Channel to the hills on the far side of Coral Bay on the far right.
Come to High House and check out the view.
