About this apartment rental

Our St John condo is a wonderful, 1bedroom, 1 bath vacation rental conveniently located just steps from Cruz Bay on a quiet residential street just past Gallows Point Resort with great breezes and water views. Frank Bay Beach is just around the corner and the sunsets are amazing from here! Our condo has Caribbean inspired colors and amenities, perfect for adults, honeymooners or couples with all the comforts of home with a little more privacy and affordability than St John hotels or resorts.

With 10' high ceilings, cool tiled floor, and ocean views are a welcoming island retreat. Villa La Mer has air conditioning, and fans throughout with regular tradewinds.

Step from the living room or bedroom onto our large porch with an outdoor teak dining table, lounge chairs, an island inspired hammock, and electric BBQ grill. The porch overlooks the shared (with four other condos) pool and some of the best sweeping views of the Caribbean and other islands, and of course sunsets you will forever remember.

The spacious living room has a floor to ceiling bookshelf, TV, & CD Player, and we have WiFi.

Our kitchen is well stocked by my mother (a Southern cook!) , so you should have everything you need to fix an elaborate meal or blend your favorite island concoctions.

The property is beautifully landscaped with year-round blossoming plants and you will absolutely love the large pool that is privately shared with the other four units on the property.

Our condo is very well maintained and our Welcome Team will also be available if have any questions about the condo.

We hope you enjoy our island home away from home.

***La Mer is not available from September until the first week in October.

We absolutely loved this condo! the location was perfect, walking distance to town but still quiet. And the back deck was our favorite hang out spot. The property manager Patti, was so nice and easy to communicate with. We can't wait to stay here again

This condo on Cruz bay is exactly as described. It is clean, well-stocked with essentials, has some great books to read about St. John, and it is close to town. We loved being able to walk into Cruz bay (it’s about a 5-7 minute walk to the Cruz Bay landing area). We also liked walking down to Frank Bay in the morning. There’s a peacock around there so that was cool to see. We enjoyed the covered deck for relaxing and coffee in the morning. We go to St. John often and we spend our days hiking, snorkeling, and going to the beach so this was a perfect little spot to rest and unwind after our exploring. The hammock is a great touch. Patti, the property manager, was awesome! Extremely kind and responsive.

We loved this property. It was just as expected and had all the necessary items and more. The property manager Patti met us upon arrival and gave us the overviev. Very grateful for the beach chairs, towels and coolers we used everyday. Convenient to walk every evening to dinner or out on the town.

We really enjoyed our stay here. King bed was very comfortable and we liked the AC splits for the bedroom. Pool was amazing and quiet. Living space was really nice and large for a rainy day. Deck was more comfortable than most, with choices for sun and shade. Did have a sunset view, but just know that it's just a narrow view now because trees on neighboring properties are blocking it some. But there was still penalty of beautiful water views. Just loved this villa! And the owner and caretaker were both fantastic as well. thank you!

We visited St. John for our honeymoon and had a lovely stay. We enjoyed the property and it was a nice walking distance to town. What you see in the photos is what you get. We had no complaints and would stay again!

My husband and I spent a week vacationing in St John for our anniversary and had a great experience here! Adele and Patti were so welcoming and made everything so easy for us. Our favorite things: - The property is just a short walk to Cruz Bay. - The pool is private, quiet and so refreshing for an afternoon dip after the beach. - The deck is perfect for coffee and breakfast in the morning or watching the sunset in the evening. We can’t say enough good things about this property and look forward to booking again in the future!

This was one of the worst experiences of our lives. Once we arrived at the property, we immediately noticed the bedroom. Before discussing the bedroom, we do note that the property is in a great location close to town. It is also large with a nice balcony and a relaxing hammock as well as a pool. Now back to the bedroom. We laid on the bed and discovered that it was extremely uncomfortable. We saw some of the reviews that mention that the bed was firm, but that is a complete understatement. We have stayed in hotels, motels and the like all over the world. This bed was the most uncomfortable we have ever attempted to sleep on hands down!! It felt like you were sleeping on a piece of plywood. Unfortunately, we were UNABLE to sleep on this so-called “mattress”. It was impossible and we stayed up all night for two nights in a row. Unfortunately, the bed situation complexly ruined the vacation. It led to two tired people who were extremely irritable, to say the least. After two nights of not sleeping, we vacated the property even though we had rented it out for 4 nights. We left and headed to another resort. I’ve never wrote a review before regarding a stay. The quality of the bed warranted writing this review. If you want to sleep on vacation and have an enjoyable vacation, we would strongly suggest that you NOT book this home. Perhaps, a drop in bookings will force this owner to finally purchase a satisfactory bed for her guests. This was simply a horrible experience.
