Loved this place!
5.0 / 5.0
My wife and I have been relocating for our summers and Christmas holidays for over ten years now: this is by far the best place we have stayed in. Calicaribe is beautifully situated, designed, and decorated, and it’s extremely comfortable.
The villa is located on a hillside in such a way that you have both tree-shaded privacy and expansive views of Pillsbury Sound with its many islands as well as the hillsides of Cruz Bay. Choose to sit with your coffee on the shaded veranda or read by the sun-splashed pool gazing out over the water.
The house itself is very nicely designed. The living spaces are centered around the pool and the terrace. The three bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms are well situated to provided maximum privacy, and each has it’s unique charms and views.
The open plan living room and kitchen are bright, cheerful, and comfortably well-furnished. The kitchen has everything you need to prepare basic meals.
The villa is about a minute from either the Starfish Market or the Dolphin Market. Both have anything you could want or need in terms of snacks and groceries, and an amazing collection of alcohol and wines at any price point.
Walking into town is a fairly easy ten-minute stroll. The walk back is a challenge when you hit the final hills headed up to the villa. We’re both runners and we found the town forbidding because of the steep hills and lack of shoulder space on the roads. However, we were surprised by how much we enjoyed the pool. We used it every day.

Superb location overlooking the sound and quite possibly the best view on the island. Shannon the property manager met us in town immediately after arriving and was the consummate host - if we ever needed anything during our stay, she immediately responded. The property was gorgeous and fit the needs of my family perfectly over the Thanksgiving holiday - the owners were happy to give us recommendations for restaurants and on provisioning alike. The home was in an ideal location for not only the stunning views, but was in close proximity to the supermarket, beaches and other prime locations in Cruz Bay. A must stay when vacationing to St. John.

This was the best VRBO experience I think we've had. The house was beyond beautiful. SPOTLESS! Someone was there the minute we arrived, followed us up to the house, & showed us around, explained things, etc. Then promptly left us in paradise. We were there for a celebration of life, the rest of our party was staying right around the corner in two different houses. Location was perfect. Town is not far, just a quick zip down the hill. The market is also conveniently located very close by. Both our friend staying with us & us had a jeep. Both fit perfectly in the driveway. My husband & I stayed in the main house, very large bathroom, walk-in shower & lots of closet/drawer space. Our guests stayed in the two casitas that are on property just across the pool from the main house. Also very nicely done, spotless, king beds, ensuite bathrooms & one even has a kitchenette. Both very private, comfortable, clean & quiet. Each has their own outdoor patio space as well. The pool was so refreshing. It was very hot & to get in the pool after a day at the beach or on the boats was the best. Lots of pool towels & noodles were available as well as beach chairs to take to the beach. There is also an outdoor shower by the pool which was very refreshing as well, & was nice to get the sand off. I can't say enough about this house. It's perfect for a family, for 3 couples, or for a friends trip. It is a quiet area, so I wouldn't say its the best choice for a loud group, but we had a great time.

We had an incredible stay at Calicaribe! This is the most beautiful villa on the most beautiful island I have ever been. This property does NOT disappoint! The accommodations are everything they say they are and MORE! Highly recommend! We will definitely be back.

We spent a week there with 2 teenage girls. They loved having their own space from us. The home is perfect. The pictures of very accurate. The location is great. It is secluded but not too far to go into Cruz Bay to get supplies. It was very quiet and we felt very safe. This was the best stocked home we have every stayed in. We supplies that we did not need because they had them. The manager was excellent and answered all of our questions. We are already trying to plan a way to come back and stay there just next time without the kids. It is a perfect home for a couples get away.

This was our favorite home so far on St. John. Not too far from town, but up in the hills with a beautiful view. We had a family group switch out mid stay with some friends and they even came and cleaned for us! The property manager was easy to work with as we had some quesitons while we were there. The house is beautiful, I highly recommend. It was well equiped and beautifully decorated.

Calicaribe
Well appointed and beautiful property with a spectacular view. Property manager was easily accessible and very helpful upon check-in, but we had no issues with the home so didn’t really need her services beyond that.
Comfortable beds and linens, well stocked with all that you need to enjoy your time on the island, and a lovely pool and deck area with a great view of the sun setting over the island of St Thomas.
There isn’t much seating in the main house, as noted by my wife, but there is plenty outside both covered and uncovered. I honestly didn’t notice this until she remarked on it, and we both agreed that spending time inside in a place as stunningly beautiful as St John was pretty much losing the plot.
Would definitely stay there again.

Wow! Wonderful stay.
I don’t think our group could have any better of a time staying at Calicaribe. It is a beautiful location that feels away from it all, but still close to town with amazing views. Also, the house has EVERYTHING that you need from beach chairs to coolers to beach towels. The house is absolutely gorgeous with so much attention to detail. We had a group of friends go and each of us had our own bedroom, bathroom and space. I would say the best part was the private pool and the beautiful master shower! We all want to come back as soon as we can!

St. John's Finest
We have just returned from the most wonderful vacation on St. John. Calicaribe was the most gracious home and we were privileged to be guests. The amenities were the finest with beautiful linens, a kitchen with everything you need to prepare a beautiful meal and rooms filled with lovely furnishings. It is hard to explain exactly how beautiful the doors and windows are in this home. It is a strange thing to notice, but they are hard to miss. The beautifully appointed master bath was dreamy and the view from the master bed itself was of the water and palm trees, all framed by triple windows! The glass tiled pool was lovely as was the decking connecting the space. We marveled at how quickly a morning shower could pass, followed by daily rainbows - sometimes double rainbows! Let's not forget the beautiful covered porch (or is it called a veranda?) that allows you to sit outside during the morning rain shower or to enjoy dinner together outside. Calicaribe's location was the best of all. Just minutes from town, yet so utterly private and secluded. The views go on for miles to include too many islands to mention and a sunset each evening just as a reminder of your good fortune. Thank you for your hospitality. This vacation will remain with us for a long, long time. All we need to do is close our eyes and recall Calibcaribe. Ahhhh!

Magical Island Retreat
Our family of four (two college kids) had a fantastic time staying at Calicaribe. The pictures represent it well. The property was clean and ready for our arrival. Incredible views of Cruz Bay and beyond. Great location with easy, quick access to restaurants and bars. Extremely private. Gorgeous architecture. We would love to return.

The house, gardens, views, location......... Perfect!
We had the best time at Calicaribe! The house is beautifully designed and decorated with comfortable beds, luxury furnishings, and high-end linens. Relaxing around the pool watching the sunset was something we'll never forget. We loved being so close to Cruz Bay and Starfish Market. The owner Chuck, House Manager Shannon and Carlito were so easy to work with, super friendly and answered any questions we had right away. We have stayed in many vacation home rentals; Calicaribe is our new favorite and we hope to visit again soon.

An extraordinary home and location. Truly, a top shelf experience.
The property is an idyllic spot for relaxing and enjoying everything about the VI's. We had three couples and this house was perfect for us. Wonderful design, construction and ambiance. Pool, decks, kitchen and furnishings all wonderful. Will go again.

Gem on St John
My husband & I just stayed at Villa CaliCaribe on St John. The house is wonderfully laid out with gorgeous western views from everywhere. Fantastic outdoor space as well for sun bathing, reading, swimming & dining. The pool, although small, was great. Terrific location too. Close to Starfish Market & all the shops & restaurants, plus the beautiful beaches. The villa is very private with secure parking next to the house. We spent 12 relaxing days there & hated to see our vacation come to an end.

Lovely home close to town but completely private
This is our second time staying in Calicaribe and we were a little concerned after the hurricane but it still looks beautiful. The home has less bedrooms than some other homes we've stayed in but perfect for 1 or 2 couples. There is a lower level with a small kitchen and queen bed but we didn't need it. The path to the lower level has been improved since our last stay. Would be a nice space for another family now that the path is easier to navigate. The pool is still our favorite spot after a day at the beaches and morning coffee. Stunning views and with it being right off the living areas it was where we hung out the most. No stairs to the pool! It is completely private, with sunset views and twinkling lights from St. Thomas every night. We cooked in several nights, there is a grill, a nice open kitchen layout and all the amenities you need. The Master bath is gorgeous! The wi-fi seemed to be upgraded since our last visit and they added a generator, although luckily we never needed that! Our contact was always very attentive to us if we had any questions and was waiting for us at the dock when we arrived. We have been coming to St. John for 15 + years and have stayed in lots of villas but we find Calicaribe to fit our needs perfectly.

An Incredible and Unforgettable Getaway
Calicaribe was absolutely amazing to say the least! Chuck and Traci were incredible hosts! They were an email away from any questions that we had for our stay (post hurricane Irma and Maria.) The views were absolutely breathtaking and was so wonderful to wake up and enjoy the beautiful scenery! Calicaribe is a short drive away from downtown Cruz Bay shops, restaurants, the gas station, markets, and beaches. We didn't know what to expect being that St. John experienced major devastation. You would never know that two hurricanes came through at Calicaribe. It sure did not fail to deliver in every aspect! The master bathroom and bedroom in the main house was beautiful and so spacious! We grilled one night and every evening enjoyed some swimming in the outdoor pool after spending the day at the beaches. We were sad to leave but can't wait to come back one day in the hopefully very near future!

Beautiful Villa with amazing outdoor spaces
We stayed in this lovely villa late November with another couple and even though the villa has 3 bedrooms, we only utilized the two on the main floor. Calicaribe is located only minutes from the ferry in Cruz Bay yet is set in a very private area with amazing views. All the indoor living spaces were great including great beds and an amazing master bathroom shower. The kitchen has everything you need to cook in along with an outdoor grill. The best part of the villa is the outdoor spaces with a covered porch, swimming pool and beautiful views. My husband is a paraplegic and the villa worked great for him. The main living areas and 2 bedrooms and baths are on one floor with no steps.

Amazing Villa, Incredible Views, Perfect Place!
I had the pleasure of staying at CaliCaribe for 8 days. It truly is a slice of heaven. If you are looking to relax, recharge and unwind this is the perfect location to do so. It's very romantic and the perfect set up for couples. The rooms are situated in such a way that provide plenty of privacy. The villa is decorated with elegant and beautiful touches.
The view is even more breath taking in person and the most beautiful I've ever seen!!
Town is a short walk or drive down the hill into Cruz Bay with all the restaurants, shopping and bars. A very cute area. The beaches I visited were all unbelievable.
I can't wait to go back! I've told all my friends and family about what an amazing place Calicaribe is.

Lovely property, great convenience and incredible views
I have been travelling to St. John for many years and Calicaribe is my absolute favorite place to stay. I will sometimes change the dates of my travel so I can stay here. Lovely, well maintained property, tastefully furnished and literally minutes from Cruz Bay and the Marketplace. The house has a wonderful pool for relaxing beside and dipping in after a day at the beach. Very reasonably priced as well. But the major asset of this property in my opinion are the views. Located on a hillside facing west, north/west the view includes Stevens Cay, Grass Cay, Mingo Cay, Two Brothers, Thatch Cay, Hans Lollik, all of Pillsbury Sound and, of course, parts of St. Thomas. Sunsets range from beautiful to truly spectacular. I wish I was there now! Highly recommended.

Calicaribe, USVI
This is absolutely a slice of HEAVEN. The westerly view is breathtaking, day or night. The Villa is one of a kind, feels like home, very private. It is so much more than you would expect and the moment you step inside, you feel relaxed. The near by beaches offer magnificent water sports, or just soak up the sun. I will make it back to Calicaribe and would recommend it to family and friends. Thanks for opening up your home, for the world to enjoy.

Exceptional Retreat
The photos and descriptions of this villa on VRBO provide an accurate description of Calicaribe. The views from the verandah and decks are beautiful, and the house is first-rate. The décor is simply elegant. Also, guests will greatly appreciate that the villa is supplied with paper and plastic items along with detergents not found in many other similar rental units. Moreover, the owners quickly respond to phone calls or emails about the villa or the island.
St. John itself is an island with many beautiful beaches, wonderful hiking trails, interesting shops, and delicious restaurants. My only “complaint” is that the water temperature (about 80 degrees) was a bit too cool to make snorkeling comfortable for me…even though I was wearing a short wet suit with a long sleeve rash guard. Nonetheless, it was worth being cold in order to see the great variety of fish, coral, and turtles!

Wonderful villa rental in St. John, USVI
My family and I just returned from a week at Calicaribe on St. John, USVI. My wife and I, along with our two teens, very much enjoyed the villa and everything it had to offer - not the least of which is the truly magnificent view! The view extends over 180 degrees from St. Thomas to the British Virgin Islands and enjoys spectacular sunsets over St. Thomas. The villa is even more impressive in person and was perfectly stocked with everything we needed. The owner and local property managers are wonderful to deal with and entirely professional. I would not hesitate staying here on our next trip or recommending it to our family and friends. The location is minutes away from Cruz Bay which offers great island shopping and top notch restaurants (although you will require a jeep rental). The beaches on the island are also some of the nicest beaches we have ever enjoyed (Trunk and Cinnamon are our favorites). While the villa is great for a family with teens or older, it would also be a great rental for three couples. The bedrooms are well separated and provide plenty of privacy, including the third bedroom suite with its own entrance and kitchen facilities. A romantic tropical paradise for certain!

Outstanding Villa
Calicaribe is absolutely the nicest villa I've ever stayed at. The views were outstanding, the decor was beautiful as well as comfortable and we were able to walk into town and back every day (if you're into the steep hillside). We enjoyed the pool and really didn't need to leave the villa as the pool was beautiful as well as the views. The sunsets were incredible as well as the moon shining over the water at night. This villa would be perfect for 3 couples as every room had it's own ensuite bath. Although we didn't use, the lower suite was nice for extra privacy and had it's own mini kitchen. I would definitely recommend this villa and will be staying there on my future visits. Thanks Chuck & Traci!

Nice Stay
We had a wonderful time on St. John and Calicaribe was great for our stay. Clean and efficient with great views over Cruz Bay back to St. Thomas. Very close to town, but you definately need a car. Biggest drawback is the annoying roosters which crow all night long so it is hard to sleep with the windows open. That said, it is a very nice property, close to town, with good views on a beautiful island.

Fabulous House
My family and I (four young kids) absolutely loved this house. Great location on top of Contant Hill with a fantasic view, particularly from the patio/pool area, of St. Thomas, Pillsbury Sound and the hills surrounding Cruz Bay. Picturesque. The house is immaculate. Very comfortable and very private. Less than a 10 minute drive to Cruz Bay and maybe 15-20 minutes to the best beaches on the north shore (Hawksnest Bay, Trunk Bay). It can be hit or miss when you rent a house on the internet but no issues with Calicaribe. Absolutely top notch. We will be back. Note - you must get a four wheel drive vehicle (jeeps are all over the place) to get around the island. Taxi service seemed ok but if you plan to get out and about, buck up for a car rental (four wheel drive) and have fun.

Perfect property for our family
Our family just returned from a wonderful week at Calicaribe. There were three couples, my husband and I, our two sons and DILs. Everyone had their own private space with bathroom attached and shared the main living spaces. The 'pod' style layout is different from what we are used to, but in our case, it worked out perfectly. Everyone had privacy when they wanted it and gathered in the living room to play games or be together, have meals, etc. The house itself is so nice, very nicely done with high end finishes, the bedrooms equipped with very comfy bedding. The indoor/outdoor shower is unique and 'cool', however, I might prefer to be able to a/c it while getting hair and make-up done...just my opinion, and might be more uncomfortable in June than other times of year. All in all, a very delightful stay, thanks and kudos to the Ross's!

This was our first visit to St. John and it was even better than I imagined. We were greeted at the ferry dock by a wonderful young lady who gave us a quick "tour" of Cruz Bay and then introduced us to the villa which was a very short drive to all the shopping and restaurants in Cruz Bay and Starfish Market. We normally stay in a resort with a lot of amenities and thought we may miss them, but Calicaribe had everything we needed, they even had floats for the pool and folding chairs and coolers to take to the beach. We found it very easy to navigate from the villa to many different beaches. We loved the open, screened-in living area of the main villa and the nice warm breeze that was always blowing through. We enjoyed having coffee and breakfast here each morning before heading out to explore this amazing island and returning in the evening to watch the amazing sunsets from the balcony. We cannot wait to return for a longer visit in May.

Our family spent two unforgettable weeks in late July and early August at Calicaribe, celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary, We can't say enough about Calicaribe. We loved the villa -- its layout and tasteful decor. The views of St Thomas, other islands, and Cruz Bay from the property, especially the guest house and the pool area, are breathtaking. Although the heat and humidity were high during the peak hours of each day, temperatures and humidity lowered late in the afternoon so that we could enjoy wine and cheese and the view, including spectacular sunsets, on the patio and dinner on the verandah. Pictures of the property on various websites don't do it justice. Calicaribe is much better than we expected. It is clean and very well maintained.
Calicaribe is blessed with an excellent local property manager, Steve Black, who has lived in Cruz Bay for 25 years and is a constructive civic activist. Whenever we needed anything, Steve was prompt in his response.
St John is truly paradise. We were fortunate to have a rental jeep to get around the island and to have our daughter and her partner do all the driving. The roads are challenging because the island is very hilly and the roads have very sharp turns, which means that one does not need to worry about exceeding the 20 mph speed limit. Opportunities for snorkeling and scuba diving abound. The beaches (St John has 39 of them) are beautiful. We swam at four of them: Trunk Bay, Little Lameshur Bay, Hawksnest Bay, and Maho Bay. We ate out only three times because my daughter's partner loves to cook, and having dinner on the verandah was a pleasant experience. The Fish Trap and Zozo's are excellent restaurants in Cruz Bay, although the latter may be too expensive for some folks.
We highly recommend a sojourn at Calicaribe. You'll get plenty of bang for your bucks.
