The Villa

 

About the Villa:

This honeymoon-worthy villa in a prime location offers the unmatched ability to wake up, open your bedroom door, and dive right into your own private swimming pool in paradise. 

The luxury 1-bedroom accommodations include a well-equipped and stocked kitchen with quartz countertops, breakfast bar, LG convection range, and a full sized fridge and freezer. You’ll find everything you need to cook dinner, such as Cutco knifes, grill by the pool on the Weber grill, or blend an island beverage. There is a spacious living room offering a full sized sofa, that converts to queen bed for additional sleeping capacity if needed. It also has two chairs, coffee and conversation tables and a ceiling fan. Enjoy a Smart TV, Sonos speaker for listing to your favorite tunes, high speed wifi, and board games to play. There are both indoor and outdoor dining spaces in addition to the breakfast bar. The bedroom has a comfy king-sized bed, dresser, second smart TV and movies/books to look at as well. The spa-like bath boasts a one-of-a-kind garden shower with rain head and separate wand that you’re sure to fall in love with. We especially love enjoying it during an island rain. There are separate vanities, makeup towels, and of course a hair dryer and iron if needed. Additionally, you’ll find hanging space in the closet, a washer and dryer, and our beach gear for your use such as cooler, chairs, and snorkel gear. Your private outdoor space has a 14×20 pool with corner stairs, pool toys and light for 24 hour use. There are two inviting loungers to relax in and soak up the Caribbean sun. 

Unwind with a cocktail by the pool, grill up the fresh catch, or relax in the serenity of the indoor/outdoor garden shower. Catch the game with premium cable TV included, and connect to your favorite content with Free wifi throughout the villa. 

The beaches on St. Thomas are jaw-dropping. Smith Bay Park (Lindquist Bay Beach), Sapphire Beach, Coki Beach, Magen’s Bay, Secret Harbour, Vessup Bay, Pelican Beach,, Hull Bay, Brewer’s Bay and Lindbergh Bay are just some of our favorites. Again, Sapphire Beach is just thru the beach gate and across a parking lot. Smith Bay Park is also walkable, or a very short car ride away.

You don’t have to have a car to get around. The Safari Bus goes by the main road and is only $2 per person. It will take you to Downtown Charlotte Amalie or Tutu Park Mall for shopping, anywhere in Red Hook or to Havensight and even Yacht Haven Grande. It’s easy to hail a taxi to go anywhere on island, or you can rent a car if you prefer. We like to go as we please, so we rent a car often times. There is free parking on-site too, usually right in front of the front door.

Having the ferry terminal so close to your private villa makes it easy to take a day trip to St. John, a fishing excursion, or to head out on a BVI adventure. The ferry to St. John leaves every hour and offers a car barge. St. John is amazing! It features the Virgin Islands National Park, pristine beaches, including world famous Trunk Bay (ranked in the Top 10 in the world) with its crystal clear waters and underwater guided snorkel tour. You’ll also enjoy seeing turtles and spotted eagle rays at Maho Bay and Frances Bay, take in pristine views at Cinnamon Bay or enjoy world class hiking in the park. One of our favorite scenic hikes is the Rams Head hike. It’s not too difficult and offers phenomenal views. St. John also has many fantastic shopping and dining options. 

If you don’t want to go out, or cook at home, Pangea, the fresh restaurant and bar on site is phenomenal. It’s just a few steps from the front door of the villa. For other dining options near the villa, Red Hook offers over 20 restaurants and bars. You can also walk to 4 great spots at Sapphire Beach from breakfast, to bar style to pizza to fine dining. Sometimes, we’ll even head north to Fish Bar, or catch the ferry over to St. John just for dinner.

Book with the peace of mind that your vacation will be everything you hoped for. You’ll have access to us to arrange transportation, help plan activities, and take care of anything you should require to complete your stay. I also know the Virgin Islands well and thoroughly enjoy helping you plan an amazing time in America’s Paradise.

Note: The villa features a private generator. If there is a power outage, you’ll be back up and running in seconds.

The neighborhood: The villa is located on the East End near Red Hook and smack between two of the most beautiful beaches on island.Red Hook has over 20 restaurants and bars, great nightlife, and my favorite grocery store, Moe’s Fresh Market. There’s also a gas station, ATM’s and Scuba / Fishing / Sailing Outfitters.

Discover an island that pulses with energy. St Thomas is 32 square miles in size, and although it is the most cosmopolitan island in the USVI, it still retains a distinctive atmosphere of a secluded Caribbean Paradise.
