VALLEY, Virgin Gorda, VI – Businessman and former 4th District Legislator in the Virgin Islands House of Assembly (HoA), Mark H. Vanterpool has announced that he intends to purchase Quito’s Luxury Inn and Restaurant as part of his family’s investment group.

Mr Vanterpool made the announcement tonight, December 12, 2023, at the grand opening of Rock Cafe by Pusser's on Virgin Gorda.

“I’m signing a document tomorrow, I was to sign it today, but I was too busy. The Vanterpool family group is buying Quito’s… If you heard that before, it’s no longer a rumour, it’s true we’re buying Quito’s Hotel and Restaurant,” he revealed.

Mr Vanterpool added, however, that the purchase will be on condition that his bank finds the money to finalize the deal and said he loves the hotel and restaurant and believed it has a high standard. 

Mr Vanterpool during the ceremony said his family group will continue to invest in the Virgin Islands because he believes in the territory and its product.

    The Vanterpools and their group, and the Romneys and their group are making moves while the rest are in their slumber. As a once famous rapper said, whilst y'all struggle and strive they pick which Benz (or Rovers) to drive.

    I honestly want to be happy for a local but all I could think of is the high prices in the supermarket and the low wages of his workers plus the muck up he made as a legislator.

      I am in no way shape or form jealous of anyone, I was taught that as a child and still follow that lesson. But I will say this much, you talking about the White man purchasing, can you blame the White man? You all sold out your land to the White man for a fist full of dollars that is done. I hope the White man take over the whole Island which is going to happen.

      A bit off subject. There is this big ugly house up Porter Ghut where the owner sold the land and the house to his ex after he was advised not to do so. Now he is up and down living pillow to post and selling food at the side of the road. A whole lot of you know the story down Sea Cows Bay. LIKE THEY SAY, karma is a B AND KARMA DOES NOT NEED A ADDRESS OR ZIP CODE TO FIND YOU WHEN IT GET READY TO SCRATCH DOWN YOUR BACK

    I want to say Yea!! BUT watching the Virgin Gorda Yacht Harbor mess makes me cautious.
    When everything is focused on making a buck there is always problems (the word 'investment' bugs me here).
    Quitos is a pretty magical place. Lots of credit to Quito himself (and his wife's help!). Hope Mark keeps the focus on local music and caribbean down to earth styles. We don't need more St Bart's stuff here

    Everyone is trying to reach billionaires status. That millionaire status played out. So if you ain’t get to millionaire status, thank the Universe for what you got and keep it moving A million dollars is not a lot of money, you can’t build a upgraded chicken coop on a million dollar budget.

    So called politicians enter politics bankrupt and end up millionaires after being in office, not just here but in every country. They are all corrupt.

    Vendors!, Employees, when will you learn, You will never get paid (in full)....and gets away with it again and again. This is also evidence why every elected or appointed official should be required to provide a financial statement of their assets.
