About this property

Newly Renovated Spacious 2-Bedroom Cottage with Sunset Views Very Near Cruz Bay

Enjoy panoramic ocean and sunset views from the hilltop terrace of this comfortable villa, located on the west side of St. John, minutes from crystal clear beaches, the Virgin Islands National Park, car and people ferries and downtown Cruz Bay. This 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom standalone villa provides casual island comforts for a family of four. It’s the perfect place to come back to and relax after a fun day of snorkeling in the blue waters of St. John’s pristine beaches. A few steps down the hill you can also enjoy a fresh water splash in the common area pool. It’s a place where you can prepare a homemade BBQ in the gas grill while enjoying the sunset, or head down to Cruz Bay and enjoy an outstanding meal from one of the many delicious restaurants.

Location was a challenge
Being a relatively new traveler to USVI, I did not have a full understanding of the location of this villa when booking it. Based on the description and a search on Google Maps, it looked like it was a healthy but doable walk from a taxi stand, restaurants, groceries, etc. The description included a mention that a car was recommended, however I wrongly assumed we would be fine without one. Getting there required many perilous turns up huge hills - imagine a steeper San Francisco without sidewalks. We’re an active family but walking ANYWHERE from the villa was unsafe and unwise. As a result of the location, we had to spend a significant amount of our time securing taxis to and from the villa. Some of the taxi companies refused to come up the hills to get us, and when they did, it required a wait and was expensive. It cost us more than $70 to get to Trunk Bay, and a simple trip to the grocery store was $64 for the transportation alone. Regarding the villa itself, overall it met the VRBO description and was fine for our family. We appreciated having two bedrooms and a kitchen, and the villa cost was significantly less than hotels on Saint John. The VRBO host was very responsive and kind. There wasn’t much she could do about the issues we had, but I appreciated that she always responded in a helpful manner.

A view, a bed, and a climb.
We are beach people who only want a place to clean up and sleep, hopefully with a view. This house covered those bases for us. The open ceilings make privacy questionable and all 3 doors need replaced because of water damage. 2 of the doors we were afraid to even try to open. The top of the fridge and the inside of cabinets need to be wiped out. Checkin and check out a breeze. View is amazing. Showers good beds adequate. Overall i would stay here again. Be ready for a challenging drive up the hill but the view is worth it.

About the host

Hosted by Lexi Segre

Host profile image
Luis and Lexi are both Caribbean natives, Luis, an architect, was born in Cuba , while Lexi, a jewelry designer, was raised in nearly Puerto Rico. We were captivated by St. John and it's magnificent beaches from the first time we visited. We hope our guests enjoy St. John as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

Back in 2000, we visited St. John for the first time and we fell in love with this magical island. We came back to visit each and every year since, sometimes up to seven times per year, because we just couldn't get enough of St. John.
During one of these visits we stayed in Sunset Vista and feel in love with its amazing views and location
In 2007 we purchased our first unit in this intimate condominium complex (Villas on the Upper Deck) of only 11 units, and have thoroughly enjoyed it over the years with our family and friends.
In 2014, we are excited to have purchased Sunset Vista also located in the Villas on the Upper Deck, with magical views, island trade-winds and convenient central location.

What makes this property unique

This 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom standalone hilltop villa is the perfect place to come back to after a fun day at St. John's pristine beaches. The open island style floor plan and high ceilings give it a warm comfortable feel. It's front porch overlooking the Caribbean's blue waters is the perfect place from where to relax watching a glorious sunset and/or prepare a juicy meal in the BBQ.
Sunset Vista's hilltop location is removed from the beaten path, but also centrally located near all the conveniences you'll need to have an amazing time on this magical island of St. John.
