Everything exceptional
September 2025
By far the nicest place we have stayed. Communication could not be any better! Very clean and fully equipped. Looks like something out of better homes and gardens. Would highly recommend.

Unforgettable first visit to Tangier
August 2025
The house was tastefully decorated, it feels like a home. It has everything we needed, from kitchen essentials to kayaks, bicycles and even beach toys and towels! The upstairs porch is lovely. We ate our meals there. So relaxing! Ken was super nice and helped us figure out ferries and transportation to the house (it was our first time at Tangier). Mary welcomed us and made us a delicious bread and jelly. She also left beautiful flowers. Everyone was super friendly. Loved our stay and we hope to go back!

Out of the Ballpark!
July 2025
This is our second stay at Bella Vista. Both our experiences have been stellar. This time, I brought more of my family with me, and they concur: the accommodations; the view from the upper veranda; the provision of equipment for outdoor fun--kayacks and bikes, basketball and Cornhole; a superbly outfitted kitchen, with simply lovely touches of welcome; the library; the proximity to the beach. The communication with Ken was more superb-level accommodation, including his connecting us to other tours and services on the island during our 4-day stay. AND, absolutely not to be missed--the catering option offered. Beyond yum! Tangier has gotten into my pores. I so hope to return . . . . Thank you, Ken and Family

My visit to Tangier Island
May 2025
My stay was the first time on the island anf it was a wonderful experience! I found it to be enjoyable, relaxing and educational. The island residents were friendly and the business owners were very welcoming and helpful. I had the pleasure of meeting the mayor of the island through his kind, welcoming offer of a ride during a walk that was becoming a challenge. Our hostess was attentive and gracious to us in an outstanding manner. We could not have asked for a more pleasant visit to Tangier Island!
