Looking to make a return to the island in the future and would love to stay at this location again. Thank you!

We were looking for a villa that gave us an easy drive to both the north shore beaches while being closer to Coral Bay. This villa was great for that and so well equipped for our stay. Communication with our hosts and property managers was great and the views were excellent.

We had a great time at Aqua Villa! Chris, the owner, as well as the property managers, were responsive and helpful. The place itself had everything we wanted for our vacation: a beautiful view, a well-equipped kitchen for preparing meals, plenty of beach accessories for enjoying the sand, and of course, lovable Fiona, the furry feline concierge.

Coral Bay visible from porch. Beautiful flowers and palms. Manager very helpful. Kitchen had everything we needed. Nice indoor shower. Outdoor shower good for easing off sand from the beach. Hit all the boxes. Normally my first box to be checked would be a hot tub or pool. But chose this property because of washer and dryer. Would definitely stay here again. Paved drive all the way to the villa with no steep climbs

First timers

Brief, but we thoroughly enjoyed St. John and our 3-night stay in this home. Can’t say enough about the responsiveness of the owner (offering general trip help when throwing this together so quickly) as well as the property manager once we arrived, with tips about the area. The views from the deck/porch are just as pictured. The home had everything we needed, and the beach accessories were a great bonus. I’d love to stay again!

Beautifully decorated…as soon as you walk into the airy, sunlit space, your whole being says “Ahhhh,” and relaxes. Great location, and the hosts are very helpful with tips on where to go and what to do. On the deck, you’re surrounded by trees and birdsongs, with a lovely view of the water. Sooooo nice!

The view from this property is exceptional. Unfortunately we were feeling very low energy and this forced us to stay at the house. Very enjoyable. Sarah & JP were very attentive and responsive. Nice to have coolers, beach chairs and snorkeling equipment to borrow. We left USVI at 80F and arrived ten hours later to Wisconsin at minus 10 F. Yeah, wanna go back ASAP and again stay in this property.

We came for our anniversary and fell in love with St John! It took us a bit to find the house, but I called Chris and he walked us through the turns. The view was amazing and listening to the birds and frogs was peaceful. The ride to Cruz Bay wasn’t bad and by the end of the week we basically knew our way around. Thank you google maps! Thank you Chris for sharing your beautiful home with us.

Aqua Villa is gorgeous! It has a feeling of home but my home is certainly not as nice! I loved the evenings, listening to the night music of the insects buzzing and the beautiful landscape lighting. It was magical. Some may want to stay out at the bars but why, when you can come home to amazing views of Coral Bay and have a cocktail on the deck overlooking the bay and houses dotting the hillsides!

St. John takes a bit of extra effort to reach as does the Aqua Villa - but that’s exactly the point. Perched above Coral Bay, my wife and I enjoyed the picturesque views from the verandah. We quickly fell into a routine of waking up with the early sunrise, breakfast on the verandah, enjoying the aquamarine waters while “beach hopping,” lunch at Skinny Legs, more explorations, followed by supper back at the house - and repeat.Christopher, the owner was very helpful and accommodating. Communication with Christopher and property managers Sarah and JP before and during our stay was always prompt. Their efforts really make a difference between a great experience and an outstanding one. Thank you all.

Paradise

My family and I absolutely loved our stay at Aqua Villa. We’ve been to St. John many times, but this is the first time we’ve stayed on the east side of the island. I much much preferred staying here, perched up in the hills with a beautiful view of coral bay to staying in Cruz bay. We were extremely comfortable in the villa - the renovation is so nicely done - but the highlight is the delightful wraparound deck. It was so lovely to have this zen space to come chill on after a day exploring the island. There are incredible plantings all around the house, which plant lovers will appreciate. The giant banana plants adjacent to the deck make you feel like you’re really in a tropical paradise. Going into coral bay for dinner was a nice option, as was cooking at home. The house is well stocked with beach gear, including tons of snorkel stuff (I hadn’t seen that listed, so I had already rented in Cruz bay). Overall wonderful and we would love to come stay again.

peaceful getaway

Everything was wonderful ….it was as pictured & described and then some. We enjoyed the covered deck for morning coffee and for evening relaxing. I loved the openness with windows and doors. The ceiling fans were a plus. The door off bathroom to deck was a plus as well as outdoor shower. We felt right at home after being greeted by Sara and she was available to help us when needed. The owners were prompt to help me with an issue I had. The property was central to the beaches we love visiting. It was hard to walk out the door. Hoping to be there again next year.
