About this villa rental

Summary:
Mare Blu Villa is a stunning addition to St. John's breathtaking landscape. Spanning 10,000 sq. ft. and overlooking Rendezvous Bay, this vibrant villa reflects the rich colors of the Caribbean. Renowned for its luxury and privacy, Mare Blu offers a high-style retreat on St. John, often regarded as the most beautiful island in the US Virgin Islands and possibly the entire Caribbean.

The Space:
Mare Blu Villa is elegantly situated on a hill above the turquoise waters of Rendezvous Bay, offering stunning views from St. John to St. Croix. The villa's exceptional design features a spacious floor plan, beautiful lighting, and high-end finishes across its four pavilions, all connected by generous outdoor living spaces, a sparkling pool, and lush tropical gardens.

This luxurious property includes six large bedroom/bath suites, ensuring privacy for all guests. Two suites are located at pool level, three on the garden level, and one above the grand veranda. Each suite is tastefully furnished, fully air-conditioned, and equipped with Smart TVs. The bathrooms feature double vanities and granite-tiled showers, with unique offerings like an alfresco shower in the Orange suite and a bathtub in the Pink suite.

The main level houses the expansive Great Room, complete with two seating areas and a 62" Smart TV. The gourmet kitchen is a chef's dream, featuring top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances, a large variety of cookware, and sliding glass pocket doors that connect to the outdoor kitchen. This alfresco dining space boasts a professional gas grill, a second oven, an icemaker, and ample countertop space.

With an abundance of outdoor seating and lounging areas, this villa's outdoor living space is truly the heart of Mare Blu, providing breathtaking ocean views and an inviting atmosphere for relaxation and entertainment.

Our family of ten, ages six months to sixtyish, enjoyed a perfect week on St. John at beautiful Mare Blu! This our first visit with the whole family since The hurricanes. It was gratifying to see that nature prevails as does the spirit of the people of St. John. We spent perfect days at Hawksnest, Francis, Trunk and our favorite Maho Bay with its turtles! We also added a new beach to our list, Hansen. Dinners at Morgan's Mango and lunches at The Tap Room and Skinny Legs were fun and delicious. Everyone loved Mare Blu! The villa is beautifully designed: elegant with attention to every detail yet comfortable and accommodating. There are spacious living areas, indoors and out, lovely bedrooms, some with screened verandas and outdoor showers, all with splendid views looking out toward St. Croix. The well equipped kitchen and outdoor dining area were great for our breakfasts and some dinners. The swimming pool was wonderful for the children in the late afternoons and illuminated our evenings sometimes inviting late night swims. The location of the villa was private and quiet yet a convenient drive to Cruz Bay and the beaches. Mare Blu would definitely be our first choice for a return stay on St. John with our family or some friends.

My family loved Mate Blu. There are 12 of us, and the house was perfect for us. It is designed so everyone has space and the outdoor living area is winderful. We ate all our dinners there, and spent of our house time there. Tori, the local manager, was always available to help with any problem. She checked in with us often. We have been to St John 9 times, and this was the best ever! I would highly recommend Mare Blu.

Mare Blu was everything we envisioned our luxury rental to be and even more. No detail has been overlooked. From wonderful linens and towels, to comfortable furniture and a perfectly stocked kitchen, even down to the outside lighting! Teri and Bernie did not miss any opportunity to make this home comfortable and inviting. They are absolutely a joy to work with and the concierge, Drew, continues that professionalism during your stay. The layout of the home gives everyone plenty of space to gather and yet, opportunity to relax in privacy if you choose. We had two families with 7 teens and college aged kids and never felt "on top of each other" or too much in the kids space. So many great and comfortable locations to relax and take in the sunrise and sunset or get some sun or shade. I cannot say enough great things about this home and can NOT wait to return.

"Mare Blu provided a beautiful, serene setting for our recent 50th anniversary celebration with family. The manager met us promptly upon arrival and made us immediately feel at home. The villa was luxurious and so well-appointed that it would be difficult to want anything more. The large outdoor dining and indoor living areas created an atmosphere in which our family was able to enjoy memorable conversations and meals together without interruptions. And, the opportunity to enjoy a cup of early-morning coffee on the patio or to swim under the stars in a pool overlooking the ocean was priceless. The downside of this trip was that it was far too short. A week just wasn't long enough to fully experience the beautiful scenery and uncrowded beaches that St. John has to offer. Teri was wonderful to work with prior to, and during, our stay. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with our family, and for providing many helpful shopping and restaurant suggestions. We are already looking forward to our next stay.

Mare Blue was the perfect spot for us to vacation with friends and family -- absolutely stunning views of Rendezvous Bay in a quiet and convenient location. The residence was fantastic with all the amenities we could hope for: lovely modern home, gorgeous infinity pool, spacious private bedrooms and bathrooms, full kitchen and outdoor gas grill, 2 washer/dryers. Teri and Bernie were very hospitable and helpful throughout the whole experience, always available when we had questions, even when it was just a suggestion for a great restaurant! Will definitely return for the next trip to St. John and would absolutely recommend to anyone for a truly wonderful vacation experience.

Our extended family (13 of us) were looking for a great place to celebrate my Father's 75th birthday and my wife was lucky enough to stumble across the Mare Blue website. The spectacular pictures on the web site convinced us that this would be a perfect location, but believe me that they can't come close to capturing the true beauty and magic of this wonderful villa. We had committed to rent the villa and the transaction was completed, but once the owner knew that the entire trip was to celebrate my father's birthday, she was so helpful and kind; she basically became our travel agent and helped make all the plans as simple as possible for us. We had such an unbelievable stay at the Mare Blue. The views are amazing, and the house is spectacular. We couldn't have asked for more. My children and my sister's children will forever remember our wonderful trip to St. John and we dream of a return to the Mare Blue. Thank you Teri & Bernie.

I stayed at Mare Blu with my boyfriend and our friends the week of July 4, 2015. It was truly the trip of a lifetime. Walking in to the house for the first time is almost (almost) the best part: the expansive view of the Caribbean, the huge infinity pool, and the numerous amenities Mare Blu has to offer will take your breath away. We spent a while walking around the property and taking everything in—before jumping in the pool! Our stay in St. John was the perfect mix of activity and relaxation. We made trips to several beaches, went on some beautiful hikes, and spent more than a few happy hours in Cruz Bay. Having Mare Blu as a home base to return to was always such a great feeling. Couples could retreat to their bedroom suites for privacy, or we could socialize in the great room or in the veranda by the pool. The space is perfectly constructed to allow for both togetherness and alone time. Reading a book by the pool was my favorite activity, while my boyfriend enjoyed watching sports from the pool (yes—the pool faces the ocean on one side and a large-screen TV on the other!). We even spent a couple of days just relaxing at the house all day and cooking at home. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare full meals; you will not want for anything while at Mare Blu. We played poker from the games provided, watched movies while floating in the pool, and made pina coladas to sip on while we cooked on the grill. This trip was nothing short of magical, and Mare Blu’s opulent yet relaxed atmosphere played a large part in our experience. We will definitely be back!

Our group (9 friends) stayed at Mare Blu in May 2015. We had a fantastic time and Teri was very helpful before the trip in arranging activities, a private chef, and taxi transfers. The villa is beautiful, with every amenity you could want – beer fridge by the pool was a big hit, as was the outdoor TV for the playoffs! Check in was very easy and professional, taking no more than 15mins or so. The house was immaculate and perfectly arranged for a large group. There is so much space that we all felt very comfortable and relaxed there. The pictures are exactly as shown on the website and the house location is perfect. Far enough from town to have beautiful, untouched views across the island, yet close enough for a 10min taxi ride into the center of town. The northern beaches were also not that far away – maybe 15-20mins in total. Chico’s Taxi (Mitch Samuel at 340 690 6507) was on call for us the entire time and always just a phone call away. Chef Johnny B (jrbluzbag (at) yahoo (dot) com) was fantastic and the food was cooked at the villa’s professional indoor/outdoor kitchen to perfection. The villa has every single thing a professional chef needs, and easily caters to large groups looking for a relaxing night overlooking the stunning views. Checkout was also easy, with a wonderful cleaning crew arriving exactly on time. We couldn’t have been happier with our stay at Mare Blu and would be happy to act as a reference for any future guests. Teri and her husband have built a fabulous home here, and it is the perfect vacation villa.
