Brisas Del Mar is located on the quiet side of St John overlooking Coral Bay, a 30 minute drive from Cruz Bay. The villa is situated less than a 10 minute drive to groceries, shops, restaurants and bars in Coral Bay. Several beautiful national park beaches are a 15 to 25 minute drive.

The villa structure survived the fury of two category 5 hurricanes in September 2017, but it has taken many months to repair the decks, the balcony roof, and the interior. There are new windows, doors, ceiling fans, new deck railings, hurricane shutters, new bedroom furniture and a new hot tub. The house has been completely repainted.

Enjoy the beautiful sunrise and Caribbean sea breezes from this villa perched 250 feet above Coral Bay on the western hillside. This quaint harbor is filled with cruising sailboats from St John and other ports throughout the western hemisphere.

Brisas del Mar is primarily a one-level villa with the pool and deck directly outside the sliding glass doors. Hot tub located on the lower level deck. The house has tiled floors throughout, beamed and vaulted ceilings, and ceiling fans in every room. There is no air conditioning, since the south-easterly breezes are almost constant. The great room affords expansive views of East End and the British Virgin Islands through two sets of screened sliding glass windows.

All 3 bedrooms have sliding doors with similar east views. Two en suite bedrooms are located at opposite ends of the villa on the main level to ensure maximum privacy. A spiral staircase leads to the third en suite bedroom with private balcony and spectacular sunrise vistas. Bed linens, towels and beach towels are provided.

The living area includes cable TV, WIFI internet access, DVD, stereo with CD and cassette deck player, books, games, puzzles, and tropical artwork. There is ample seating for diners from the casual bar to the formal mahogany table seating six or enjoy the views from the glass-top table on the deck outside seating up to six. The well equipped kitchen features mahogany cabinets and countertops, a native stone and mahogany island/bar, stainless steel refrigerator/freezer, gas stove/oven, microwave, dishwasher, coffeemakers, espresso machine, toaster, blender, mixer, cookware and dinnerware.

An outdoor gas grill and laundry room with washer and dryer complete the "at home in paradise" atmosphere. Ice chests in several sizes and beach chairs are available for island exploring.

Relax and enjoy the extensive views of Coral Bay and the British Virgin Islands all the way to Virgin Gorda from a pool-side chaise or the hot tub. The almost constant tropical breeze and multiple ceiling fans keep the house cool throughout the day and night.

Access to the villa is on an adventurous partially paved road which may be rough in places. Although the drive with curves and switch-backs is less than 1/2 mile, a 4-wheel drive vehicle is required.

We loved the setup of the house with 3 bedrooms, each with their own bathroom and acces to the outside, the hottub and swimming pool. If there is a drawback, it is the condition of the road up to the house. While driveable, it made multiple trips in and out during the day difficult.

Nice amenities, plenty of space, comfy beds. Pool and sauna were nice as well. No A/C not a problem. You do need a 4WDrive to access.

Second visit to St John and this house was mediocre compared to our first stay. We would have stayed at Villa Tiffany again but it’s under construction; and our second choice home, Villa Ventosa, wasn’t available when my family of five could make the trip. This house, “while clean and offering a two star view lacks a comfortable feeling” according to two adult sons who traveled with my husband and me. The ride to the house is challenging. Close to multiple grocery stores which is a plus. Pool was not used much, water is way too cold, so hot tub was a plus. We spent our days at the beach but eat in most nights. First naught we had to change the propane tanks to cook inside and outside leaving us feeling like we were back home. And I judge on little things like is there bottles of water in fridge for all in party when we arrive after a day of travel and is there extra supplies: soap, paper towels, toilet paper; and basics like candles and bug spray available, the answer at this house is NO. At the end of the day we had a great vacation, wonderful memories made. And, when I come back, this isn’t the house we will stay in.

The house was perfect for our annual Father’s Day trip with our grown kids and teenagers. The views were unbelievable and the road an adventure! Don’t let it scare you, it gets easier and easier each time. The hot tub was the perfect way to unwind every evening after a full day out. Several great restaurants and markets right near also.

The house accommodates six adults very comfortably, with 3 spacious bedrooms each with good mattresses and pillows, and with outdoor access, 3 private bathrooms, comfortable living and dining areas and well equipped kitchen. Beach towels, coolers, beach chairs, everything you need for days on the beach. TV and internet easy to use and reliable. We loved the wall colors, furnishings and flooring throughout. Stunning views from all rooms over Coral Bay. Wonderful breezes, no insect issues. Challenges of getting up and down the very long and very rough drive made us think twice about going back into town more than necessary, though it did not feel unsafe -- just challenging, rough, and uncomfortable for one of our group with back issues.
