Does anyone know how Bianca the owner of Coffee n Tea is? And what is the status of the properties? I've reach out thru email with no response. Also there was another property above that the Gallagher's owned yrs ago that was heavily damaged ,was wondering if that is being restored?. We stayed in all those properties for yrs so sad to see what happen to them.

If you haven’t been to the BVIs since Irma, it’s hard to imagine or describe the damage. Everywhere you go there are houses without roofs and demolished structures. Walls have collapsed even in solid stone houses. The rebuilding is encouraging, but a lot of places will remain only in our memories.

With that said...Best way to help rebuild is go and vacation. Water is still beautiful and plenty of people to meet.


Cruising the local waters here in SC and GA. Love the BVIs and miss the Tradewinds!

I agree wholeheartedly, a few years after major storms things come back better and with an air of success.

Agree - we are there now and the number of tourists - land based is down - mostly sailors but still the local economy is coming back - Adagio, Bellamare and Loblolly are available for rent at Mahoe and the others will be following in the next couple of months.
