About this villa rental
Coral Caribe is nestled on a hill overlooking beautiful Fish Bay on the southern shore of St John. Fish Bay is a very quiet, peaceful area. This beautiful 1 bedroom upper villa has everything to make your vacation complete. Kitchen has all necessary appliances and utensils. Dining room table seats 4 or enjoy your meals on the expansive deck. Relax on the new furniture on the deck. Wake up to a gorgeous view of Fish Bay from the king-size bed. Full bathroom is located off the bedroom. October 2019 we added a Murphy bed in the Living Room area and a half bath. The villa can now accommodate 4 people comfortably. Ceiling fans and the trade winds usually create a comfortable temperature in the house. There is a split unit air conditioner in the Living Room and a small unit in the bedroom if needed. December 2021 we added additional solar panels with battery back-up, so you shouldn't have to deal with island power outages. Comfortable rattan furniture to watch television or gaze out the patio doors and enjoy the view. Dish Network is provided. Smart TV, for use of Netflix, etc. On clear days, you can see St Croix. Beach chairs, beach towels, noodles and coolers are provided for your use, as you enjoy your adventures to the many beautiful beaches on the island. Beaches on the north shore are approximately a twenty minute drive. St John is two thirds National Park, so you can also hike the many trails on the island. Cruz Bay is about a ten minute drive from the villa. You can enjoy many dining options as well as music at the local establishments. The water at the house runs through a UV filtration system. Bathroom towels are provided. Wi-Fi is available. AT&T and Sprint carriers normally work on the island, although cell phone service is spotty. Our manager, will greet you at the ferry dock. He can bring you to Coral Caribe Villa or take you to a Jeep Rental of your choice and you can follow him to the house. You may also want to stop in town to pick up groceries on your way. There is limited Taxi service to the villa. A Jeep rental is recommended.

The place was exactly as described and was a perfect fit for my family. It’s located in a very safe and quiet neighborhood, but still close to town. I loved the fact that beach and snorkel gear was provided as it made the trip much more enjoyable for everyone.
Luckily my wife and I lived on an island for about 3 years and we were accustomed to water conservation, so short showers and turning water off while washing dishes was normal for us.
The house was well appointed with everything you would need, including a fully stocked kitchen (less food).
When we come back to St. John in the future, we will definitely stay here again!

The view is amazing everyday. Only minutes from the market and Cruz Bay. The road up is a bit of an adventure, but there are only a couple neighbors so not much traffic. We loved it!

Has a beautiful view! Villa is a nice size for 2 people. Although there were problems with the power, Melisa tried to keep us informed. Hope USVI gets the power problems solved!

Coral Caribe was the perfect home for our stay on beautiful St. John! The views are stunning, and the quiet location was idyllic. The home itself was clean and bright with great attention to detail. We would love to return to Coral Caribe as soon as possible!

Just Fabulous!!! Very Clean home and had everything we needed. Ease of checking in was great, nice being close to Cruz Bay but far way enough to enjoy the quiet and views from the deck. Cooking in was so enjoyable!!!!

Well maintained and clean villa with all the amenities. Spectacular view of Fish Bay and beyond. Our hosts, Rob and Melisa, could not have been more helpful with suggestions and leading us to the villa.

The Coral Caribe Villa had everything we needed; it exceeded our expectations, and the view was amazing. The Sprangers were wonderful hosts, meeting us at the ferry dock when we arrived to guide us to the villa. They also provided helpful tips on where to visit and eat. We felt comfortable and very safe during our stay. The trade winds ensured comfortable temperatures, allowing us to leave the windows open day and night, eliminating the need to run the A/C.

The villa was a perfect spot for our family of four. Very clean, ample space, with a large deck and an amazing view. The owners were very communicative and helped with advice on places to go and visit. We would definitely stay here again.

This is a wonderful cottage located with great views and star gazing at night. Meticulously taken care of and the owners are very responsive to your needs. Would definitely stay there on our next trip.

We really enjoyed our stay! The view is wonderful and can be seen from the bedroom, the dining area and the living area (and of course on the deck). The apartment was breezy. We appreciated the clothes line which came in so handy for drying our stuff. We love that Cruz Bay is an easy 10-minutes away but we can also take a different route that bypasses Cruz Bay to get to the North and East shores. Would definitely want to stay here again in the future.

You couldn't ask for a better place to stay. SOOOO peaceful, beautiful views, well furnished, with attention to detail, and excellent host! Melisa and Rob are the best! It's obvious they take pride in their property. The location is very secluded, but the opposite end of the island (which was Hansen Beach, our favorite) is only a 35 minute drive. You'll be 12 minutes from Cruz Bay where most of the restaurants and stores are located, and a maximum of 30 minutes from all the most popular beaches. If you are on your vacation for peace and relaxation, Coral Caribe on St John will be a perfect destination!

Easy check in. Kitchen had all the amenities that you may need. We enjoyed sitting on the balcony each morning and evening. Great location! We will definitely stay here again.

Coral Caribe was lovely! Everything we needed and more. We left early every day to enjoy the beaches and returned each night to a relaxing home away from home!

Melisa and Rob were incredible telling us the best beaches and wonderful places to eat. They made you feel right at home. The house was one of the most beautiful places we have ever stayed. The house had the best view and very nicely equipped with everything you need for a stay. Only place we will stay on St. Johns

This is a perfect island getaway! The space is delightfully decorated, immaculately clean, has thoughtful amenities, and includes a stunning view of my favorite St John bay.
The hosts are great: friendly but not intrusive, good communicators.
You’ll love Coral Caribe!

This spacious house was everything we could have wanted. The huge deck had a fabulous view and also kept the house cool. With lovely breezes we didn’t need the AC. The entire back of the house is sliders, so even if it was raining or too hot to be on the deck, we still had the feeling of being outdoors.
Super well equipped kitchen, great outdoor grill, very comfy bed, beach chairs and snorkel equipment , a washer/dryer and a special filtration system even allowed us to drink the water.
Fish Bay is a nice quiet area to stay. The stars at night were spectacular with no city lights to hide them. A real find!
5.0
The location of the house is very convenient, close to the restaurant and ferry, yet still quiet as it sits on top of the hills. There are indeed some sharp turns on your way going up, hence a 4-wheel drive car is much needed. The rooms are clean and big enough to make the three of us stay comfortably. The hosts are super nice and extremely helpful, and we will definitely come back again!

Clean, well decorated, Scott the manager was very helpful. We had a great time! We would highly recommend it, especially for a couple it was very nice!

Rental property was just as depicted. The area was quiet and had a beautiful view of fish bay. It was not too far from Cruz Bay and the north shore beaches. We were happy to have rented a jeep as the roads on St John are quite steep with lots of switch backs. It was great to have access to the cooler, ice packs, beach chairs, umbrella, and snorkeling gear. We slept comfortably and would go back again.

If you know….you know
The pictures don’t do this place justice. Scott was amazing by meeting us at the ferry dock, getting us to the car rental, to the grocery store and to the villa. The place was tastefully decorated, amazingly comfortable and provisioned well. It was a great home base after a day of beaching, boating or just heading into town for a great meal. Bob the cat greeted us every time we left or returned setting the vibe for a very decompressed, and chill vacation. I’ve already said too much, go and stay here for yourself. You will come back a more relaxed person!

Spacious! Great View!
Spacious and comfortable house! Very quiet area. Rob was very accommodating in picking us up (our flight was many hours late). Great view of Fish Bay! Before booking, you should know that the drive up Caribe Rd is challenging. There are 4 hairpin turns on Caribe Rd. In my 4-door Jeep Wrangler, I usually had to back up in each hairpin turn before finishing the turn. If you have a 2-door, it should be easier. If you are used to the roads in St John, you know that many roads are challenging. Other than Caribe Rd, we loved it. There were just 2 of us. Didn't use the Murphy bed. House would be a little tight for 2 couples but should work fine for a family of 3 or 4.

We are now "Fish Bay People"
Our first trip to St. John and we fell in love with the island. We initially stayed in Cruz Bay to get our bearings, and then left for Coral Caribe. Words cannot express how beautiful the view is here. The unit is pristine and the lay out is perfect. We loved it here and were so sad to leave. The tip about hiking to Genti Bay was brilliant and we made the hike our first day. We cannot recommend this enough. Thank you also for the snuggles from Brandy the puppy.

Beautiful view, great location, helpful hosts
We had a fantastic time at this house on the hill. The view is spectacular and so great to wake up to each morning and enjoy with coffee on the deck.
The hosts, Rob and Melisa, were very communicative and helpful. The whole check in and out process was easy.
The house had everything we needed and the beds were very comfortable, even the Murphy bed in the living room. And we really appreciated that we were just far enough removed from Cruz Bay that it was quiet and peaceful but still close enough to be very convenient.
I would definitely go back again and recommend to others. We loved our stay!

Sunshine in St. John
We were delighted to meet up with Scott the property manager even though it was late as we had arrived on the last ferry from St. Thomas. He led us up to the house and gave us a rundown of how everything worked. It is so beautiful up in hills and the stars at night were magnificent. Each day was a new adventure starting with a sunny view of Fish Bay. The beaches were pristine and the weather perfect. Many thanks for a lovely time at Villa Caribe.

Amazing Place to Stay!
We been to Island a few time but this was the first with our kids. This place was perfect. The beds were very comfortable. Air Conditioning worked great. The view is absolutely amazing. Our boys enjoyed it very much. Bob the cat was also very welcoming and greeted us all daily. We are already looking to plan another trip. Thank you guys for allowing us to experience your place.

So glad we booked here and can understand why they had great reviews! The property was very clean and the king bed and pillows were very comfortable! This home had everything you would need. The beach chairs, towels and other equipment was very much appreciated. Melissa was very helpful in giving me info about the area since it was our first time in St John. Scott made sure we arrived safely.
The villa is off the beaten path so you will need a jeep. Views were beautiful and the house was well cared for. We would definitely come back!
