A covered outdoor dining area adjoins the dining room as well providing charming seaside dining. The interiors are Colonial style and feature cut stone, mahogany pieces and an abundance of teak and other tropical woods as well as Italian tile and Persian rugs which complement the dramatic architecture.

One word to describe Fortlands Point...AWESOME!!! Unanimous response from everyone involved. The staff was amazing. Made us feel so much at home and so friendly. It was truly hard to leave the villa, the staff, the food, the attention. The villa experience also made us unwilling to even try and fully enjoy the Ritz-Carlton experience, despite the hotel being a Ritz. Such a good time that we are already talking about how to do this again next year. One of my brothers is now considering holding his wedding there. It really was a blast.
