About this villa rental
A spectacular setting! One of the best around to enjoy outstanding views and the gentle island breezes and some of the best stargazing on the island!
Drive up to a no stair entrance and master first floor living. The main level living room boasts 30 Ft. high gorgeous vaulted Cypress ceiling. The open concept living area has a fully equipped kitchen, living room, dining table for 6, books to read, games for the family, and strong internet for the remote workers in your group.
The main floor has the master bedroom which has a king bed, a smart TV, private door to the porch and hot tub, and private door to the main floor full bath. This is the bedroom that accommodates a no stairs vacation. This bathroom also is accessible from the living room, has two vanities and a shower that has no ceiling so you can privately shower under the stars.
Upstairs has two loft style bedrooms. One is larger and has a king bed that can be separated to make two twin beds. The other has a queen bed and an ocean view.
Going down the spiral stairs from the main level to the lower level. Here there is a second bathroom with a full shower, the laundry area, and various beach equipment for you to use.
The house was built on an angle with the island breeze in mind so feel free to open the house up and enjoy the breeze. You will be happily surprised. Should you prefer AC, there are AC units in the living room, master bedroom, and upstairs lofts.
The 40' x 12' porch has a 6 person whirlpool spa Hot Tub for relaxing after a wonderful day out, a dining table perfect for enjoying meals while listening to the surf, rocking and lounge chairs. Listing incorrectly says pool, it is referring to the Hot Tub. There is not a pool, there is a Hot Tub.
The home is located in the Ditleff and Rendezvous Bay area. It is a 10 minute drive from Cruz Bay. The VI National Park borders this area on the North and the East side. Hillside vacation villas dot the landscape, with gorgeous views of quiet bays and manicured gardens.
To get here you will fly into St Thomas Cyril E. King Airport (STT), from there you take a taxi or shuttle bus located just out the baggage claim doors. They only take cash. It is a 10 minute ride to the Crown Bay People Ferry operated by Inter Island Boat Service. The ferry is a beautiful 45 minute ride over to St John Cruz Bay. Alternatively you could take a 45 minute taxi/shuttle ride to Red Hook Ferry or Red Hook Car Barge. It is a 10-15 minute ferry/barge ride to St John. Please google for ferry times and rates.
Our wonderful property managers will meet you on St John and help you navigate to the house. Once your booking is confirmed on VRBO, the managers will contact you to go over all your needs and questions. We supply amenities like shampoo, conditioner, hair dryer, towels, etc. A full list will be sent once you book or upon request.
There are taxis on the island but please make sure to ask for their schedule as it changes from day to day. You can rent a Jeep on St John or St Thomas. Jeep or SUVs are recommended over sedans due to the roads. We recommend you reserve your Jeep well in advance of your trip. If you are renting a Jeep on St Thomas to bring to St John, you will need cash for the port authority and for the barge ride.

We enjoyed our stay at this property. It was well-equipped, clean, and private. The views from the balcony are spectacular and morning coffee and evening hot tub time were amazing.

This rental is exactly as described! It was perfect for our family of 5 that included teenagers/young adult age children. Beach chairs, coolers, etc. were available for guests to use. It was our first time visiting St. John so we appreciated Kristen’s help in guiding us to the rental & going over things for check in.

Great stay
4.9
While our accommodations were lovely and views spectacular, we had a few important unexpected bumps. Power outages are frequent and we were without power two of our four mornings, for up to 5 hours each time. It is understandable that it is beyond control of the property managers, but we were told upon arrival they can happen up to 5 times a week. This would have been beneficial to know upon booking.
This means no water in addition to no power…no toilet flushes. We had to haul water from a hot tub to make this possible.
The power outage wiped out wifi. It never came back online even though we reported it. We had to pay to use our data.
The property description advertises a pool, but there was no pool or access. Perhaps misleading because of the hot tub?
Kristen was awesome and did all she could to help us trouble shoot. We were disappointed considering what we paid and the services that we tend to take for granted (water) were significantly unavailable.
4.9
We had a great week on St John. The villa was perfect for our family of four. Clean, spacious and had all you really need for a comfortable stay. Views are amazing. Feels very private. Location is only 10-12 minutes outside of town so very convenient. I would not hesitate to stay here again. Loved it. 5 stars for sure.

Everything was lovely and as described. We had a fantastic time and look forward to coming back to stay here again! I can recommend it without hesitation.

The property was perfect for our family of 4. Very clean and included everything you’ll need. The view was remarkable and the family enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub after long days exploring.

This house was great for our family of four including two teenagers. It’s well situated overlooking a beautiful cove that was quiet and private yet only 10 minutes from Cruz Bay. The views are truly amazing. The house was clean and well stocked with everything we could for a day at the beach. The hot tub was clean and worked well, beds were comfortable, and we had plenty of extra linens. We loved the outdoor shower too!
The property management company was great to work with. Easy to communicate with and we appreciated that Kristen met us at our jeep rental place and led us to the house to give us a tour and answer any questions.
I would highly recommend this home to a small group and I would work with this team any time.

Clean, spacious, FABULOUS views!

This rental has everything needed in a location that is central to everything the island offers. 20 minutes from any beach (East end a little farther) and downtown Cruz Bay, which we went to every night for live music and dinner. Highly recommend this property for its beauty, layout and especially the after-beach hot tub sessions watching the sun set against the hills and the moon rise over the top. Beds were super comfy and pillows to match. Thank you for letting us enjoy your slice of heaven. Can't wait to go back!!

This villa was very spacious for our group of 3 couples. The deck overlooking Fish Bay was an amazing view and the sunrises over the mountain were gorgeous. The jacuzzi was so relaxing after a day of hiking, beaching and snorkeling. The outdoor shower was fantastic!!! The property manager, Kristen, was so helping in meeting us at the ferry, driving with us to the villa, giving tips of where to shop for groceries and providing all the necessary information. Convenient location to drive to Cruz Bay, the north shore beaches and the East End. We totally enjoyed our stay.
4.9
Open kitchen, dining, living area was perfect for hanging out! Kitchen well equipped and AC all around was great for beating the heat. Balcony and setting wonderful for viewing the sunrise and serene Fish Bay. The Bedroom/ Bathroom/ shower placements worked for us because our upstairs bedrooms were used by our 20 somethings. Really cozy comfy upstairs bedrooms! House uses 3 levels with entry on middle level where you find living area and primary bed bath outdoor private shower. Beds and pillows so comfortable . Top floor with 2 large beds, and lower level with bath / shower and laundry area.

Place was awesome, views were great, everything we needed to enjoy our stay, would stay again!

House was perfect for our family. Beautiful porch and view of the morning sunrise. Kristen and team were very helpful and responsive. Be ready for a tight steep curve to get to the house and into the driveway. We also did not see an opportunity to walk to a beach. We drove to each beautiful beach.

Beautiful views, wonderful hot tub, and great parking! Spacious and bright property! Kristen was awesome! Outdoor shower was very unique!

A fantastic house with amazing views, a good location, and a great house manager.
The cathedral ceiling and jacuzzi are great. The laundry room has a large table for folding clothes. The kitchen is fully equipped. There are enough towels for bathing and the beach. Beach chairs and snorkeling fins are a plus. Everything in the house is well thought out and planned.
The balcony gives a great ocean view and an amazing sunrise from outdoors. The glass bay doors give a great ocean view from the living room.
All in all we enjoyed our stay in this house.

We had a great time and the villa was just as advertised.
Clean, well-outfitted, and beautiful. Everybody was kind and helpful to us.
Great view of Fish Bay and great location. Quiet and beautiful both in the day and at night. 12 minutes drive to Cruz Bay. 20 minutes to Trunk Bay.
The nearest beach is about 1.5 miles away, off Reef Bay Road. It's called Parrot Bay beach. There is basically no parking there; we hiked to it from the villa. A steep rocky path leads down to the beach. Beautiful to look at, but not great for any but the most experienced snorkelers and strong swimmers. Watch out--there are sea urchins on the rocks underwater.
One slight caveat: Be aware that to access the two upper bedrooms you have to navigate a cast-iron spiral staircase. Could be challenging for some people.
The second bathroom is located in the basement, one floor down from the main floor on the cast-iron spiral staircase. Just be aware--it was not a problem for us.
I would highly recommend this villa.

This is a nice house, very well equipped with comfortable beds, nice linens, plenty of good towels, snorkel equipment and beach chairs, and plenty of dishes, cooking utensils and appliances. We loved the hot tub! Perhaps at one time you could walk to a vacant lot on Fish Bay where you could access the water, but there is now a house going up there and there is no access to Fish Bay or a way to walk to anywhere from this house.
4.9
The house was very open and sunny with the huge windows and views of the ocean from the house. It was very easy to keep the house as warm or as cool as we wanted because of the convenience of the handheld controls. We slept very comfortably in the master bedroom bed and enjoyed the large master bathroom and adjoining bath. We didn't think the listing was entirely clear that the house has three levels, so we were confused and thought the second bathroom was on the same floor as the master bath. Fortunately, my husband and I were the only guests, so it didn't matter. The shower in the master bath is outside only. It was a straight shot from the house to the nearest grocery store and into town, very convenient. We didn't use the hot tub but a couple of times, but for most people it would be a fun addition to their vacation.
4.9
Perfect location, perfect size for family of 4. Just close enough to Cruz Bay to be close enough to the action and far enough to feel disconnected. Can be a little difficult to find homes in St John due to narrow/sharp corners and crazy big hills- was a really nice touch having property manager meet us at the rental car company to guide to the house. All of the basic amenities were available which was very convenient. Will definitely return!
4.9
This was our 6th trip to St. John & the first time staying at Christy Anne Villa. The house was neat and tidy when we arrived, and Zara took the time to provide us with all the details of the home and gave us a few pointers on some of the places we had not previously explored. The hot tub was a nice addition to the home and was a great place to soak our tired bones after full days of swimming and hiking. We had daily visits from some deer, iguanas and a wide variety of birds passing by. The views from the deck were nice while enjoying some cold adult beverages and the constant breeze was refreshing. We look forward to our 7th trip back to St. John.
4.9
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We can’t wait to come back.

Great views, close to the ferry. Large bright home. A rental car and being comfortable driving hills and narrow roads is a must. The biggest negative — the upstairs AC unit did not cool well. Owner/property manager is very responsive. Overall, great stay.

Great house and location. Beautiful views! Our first time to St John and it did not disappoint!

Close to Cruze bay, incredible views from all areas of the house.

Nice villa equipped with everything you would need. Beautiful views, convenient location. Good communication from property manager.

Clean and beautifully decorated! The beds were very comfortable. Gorgeous views! Only downside is there is no bathroom on the top floor and coming up and down the spiral stairway can be a little tricky.

Best house I have ever vacationed in.

We absolutely loved the villa! They also had many extras that made our stay pleasant - extra pillows and bedding, bathroom toiletries, beach towels, etc.
4.9
An awesome stay with amazing views and hot tub , smooth check in and orientation with Kristen. Great amenities and snorkeling gear . One suggestion is stocking with a Kuerig, but coffee maker was fine. Our only regret was not booking longer. Thanks so much .
4.9
The manager, Kristen, made our experience absolutely seamless!! She met us at the ferry from St Thomas (required to get to St John unless your on a private boat), stopped at a grocery store for us to stock up, and gave us a thorough tour of the property. Easy communication. Excellent service.
If you have more than one couple using the king bed bedroom on the main level, be prepared to ascend and descend spiral staircases to access a separate bathroom or a mirror. Great showers, great views. Roads on St John are not for the meek.
4.9
Had a great time at Christy Ann, really enjoyed the hot tub and outdoor shower. Location was close to Cruz bay which was nice. I would recommend this property.
4.9
Super clean & beautiful views! Girls trip for 2 & the layout was perfect. Kitchen & amenities were great, hot tub was just what was needed after the flight, hiking and snorkeling. Location was also fabulous- just remote enough and easy to get to either Cruz Bay or Coral Bay.

Great views, High Ceilings, Outdoor Shower, Spacious Living/Dining Room, Lovely deck, Clean, Well-stocked with coolers, beach and bath towels, beach chairs, some snorkel gear,
Super location in quiet neighborhood less than 10 min. drive to town.

Our family of four enjoyed our stay here. The views were beautiful. The house was perfect, with one master bedroom and two smaller bedrooms upstairs.
4.9
If you’re renting a vehicle and want to stay in a beautiful house that sleeps 6 or less people, this one is beautiful. The views are amazing, the hottub was in great condition, beds were comfortable- plenty of room.
I only gave the communication 4 stars bc we had emailed the owner about the upstairs AC not working and after his initial ideas he didn’t follow up on helping. I could have also reached out to the property management company who checked us in- I did not.
Even without AC upstairs this place is a dream and we were so comfortable. Miss St John already!!!
4.9
We thoroughly enjoyed our full week at the villa. We loved the covered patio and view with it's island breeze. We loved the full sized kitchen, the hot tub and especially enjoyed the outdoor shower. The beach chairs beach towels, noodles and coolers were much appreciated. We have already inquired about staying here next March.
The best part.
Zara (our rental agent) went above and beyond anyone we have ever worked with. We had issues finding the property initially and she guided us over the phone from Cruz Bay to the villa. She then met us personally to give us a tour of the property and answer any questions. We had issues with the internet from our second day. She came over personally to access and resolve the issue. It went out again and she worked with Viya to correct it. It went out again and she had Viya replace all the equipment. It went out again when the area lost power and she helped me over the phone reset the new equipment. It worked perfectly the rest of our stay. We communicated every day with Zara and she was a joy to work with. She did everything possible to make sure we had the best experience possible. Thank you Zara. We hope to see you soon.

The property was close enough to Cruz Bay, yet far enough away for peaceful and quiet days. Well stocked kitchen and beach necessities.
