About this villa rental

Welcome to Its About Time! This is a four bedroom, three bathroom villa located in the more central part of the beautiful island of Saint John! This 2,500 square foot masonry constructed ridge top home has breathtaking views about 1,000 feet up overlooking Coral Bay and the British Virgin Islands on one of the highest peaks on St John. On the other side you can look down at Maho and Francis beaches and also see the waves of Johnson Reef and St Thomas in the distance. Come enjoy the most beautiful sunrise and sunset on this unique property!
The white sandy beaches and turquoise blue waters are all so near with Maho Bay the closest beach with a less than five minute drive. You will have all you need for your trip to the many beaches including a variety of coolers, sun fly umbrella, beach towels and chairs.
This exceptional villa also features a beautiful, private swimming pool with a million dollar view of Coral Bay and the Caribbean! There is a steady tropical breeze that wraps around you like a warm hug! In your vacation home you will enjoy the perfect design for a romantic couple’s getaway or add friends and additional families to share a fun time together. There is plenty of room for everyone to enjoy time together in the open concept living, dining, and kitchen areas while each bedroom also has individual entrances for privacy. Broadband high speed internet and cable tv are available and there is a large flat yard for outdoor games- which is a rarity on St John.
The two master bedrooms on the main floor are located on each side of the kitchen/living area and each have king size beds with private bathrooms and attached outdoor showers. On the lower floor there are two additional bedrooms containing one king size and one queen size bed. Located in between these bedrooms are: a recreation room highlighting a large screen TV with movies & games, refrigerator, sleeper sofa futon, and a full bathroom and laundry room.
This very private villa is encompassed by extraordinary and magnificent hand laid stone walls created with local rocks from this mountainous terrain. Lush tropical foliage and landscaping add to the ambiance of this incredible property. It is only a 20 minute drive from the ferry. The roads to the villa are all paved and there is plenty of parking space.
All bedrooms have iphone docking stations, ceiling fans, and individual air conditioning units, which are often not needed with the natural refreshing breeze. The lower level is accessible by stairs located outside on both sides of the villa and has a complete wrap around deck that leads to the private pool area. The large pool features an impressive 12 foot high stone wall with inlaid lighting and local art work featuring Caribbean themed images. The perfect spot to cool off, relax with a book, or enjoy a refreshing cocktail hour with friends and family.

So everyone mentions the views... and rightfully so. Absolutely STUNNING views. You can see the run rise over Coral Bay right from the house, and you can see the sun set by walking to the sitting area on the other side of the property. It's unbelievable. The house itself was super clean and very well supplied, from kitchen utensils and tools to extra pillows and blankets. There is plenty of space. We had four adults and four children (ages 15 down to 6). Plenty of space for everyone. The location is perfect -- remote enough to feel really detached, yet close enough to the beaches and Coral Bay to make any commutes a breeze. There is a nice yard area that's really convenient for kids to play in, and backing vehicles up to the front door to load/unload makes things really easy. The owners were super responsive and proactively checked in with us during the stay. They really do care about the property and the experience of those staying there. When we come back to STJ this place will be on the top of our list to check for availability. Highly recommend!

The house sits near a hilltop with beautiful view of the coral bay, fully stacked with supplies enough for a big group. The owner also carefully stack supplies in all the bathrooms including soap and toilet paper; kitchen has many extra supplies like dish soap and garbage bags. The two stories are set up in a way that two families can sleep totally separately without an inside stairs access; It’s perfect for us since the kids own the downstairs next to swimming pool. The living room has no AC but there is enough sea breeze to cool the room off with sliding doors open. We had some trouble locking the doors properly but since we are on vacation, we sort of used the chance to laugh at each other.‘a clumsiness. The host is very responsive to requests and questions. Coral bay is a really nice a quiet area to stay. The house feels like top of the heaven. Be sure to try The Windmill Bar. It’s a must see!

As others have said, the views from this villa are amazing. Not only can you watch the sunrise over Coral Bay in the morning, but this property also provides the bonus of being able to watch the sunset while gazing over the North Shore in the evening. The villa itself is just as described and had everything our group of 7 adults needed. To top it off, Diana and Mike were great hosts and were there to answer any questions we had.

Enjoyed our stay at this beautiful villa. Cannot say enough about the gracious hosts and their attention to detail. The property was clean and well equipped for an island vacation. And the views ... no words!

I can't say enough good things about this house - terrific views, great layout, well-stocked kitchen, beautiful pool... the list goes on. We stayed here with our own family (two kids, 5 and 7) and my friend's family (also two kids, 2 and 4). The two floor layout worked perfectly for us. This was our second time to St. John and I was a little hesitant about staying 'so far' from Cruz Bay, but the location was excellent - it's literally 5 minutes to Maho/Francis beaches and the same distance to relatively well stocked grocery stores in Coral Bay. Cruz Bay is nice, but staying on this side of the island felt truly relaxing. Because the house is on the top of one of the larger hills on the island, it's always quite breezy, but the benefits are 1)very few bugs, and 2) more reasonable temperatures during the heat of the day. We'll be back!!

Everything was great. The house is spotless and beautiful and well-equipped. Amazing views from every window. Great location away from the chaos of Cruz bay but close enough to Coral bay for grabbing a quick bite. Owners are helpful and easy to communicate with.

Stayed here with a total of 8 adults (4 couples). The place was great, the location was awesome, and the views were spectacular! The owners were also the rental property managers and they showed they really care about the renters’ experience. Having a paved driveway made the hillside journey much easier than we’ve found with some other St. J villas. Parking 2 vehicles on a bumpy knoll wasn’t convenient but that’s nitpicking. We highly recommend!

A perfect stay for groups looking for a casual stay with space to be together-- or apart! Everything we needed was there (or easily brought in by Island Baby) for cooking, for beaching, for lounging, for reading... and you can't beat the location-- so close to North Shore beaches as well as Coral Bay restaurants and beaches. We've stayed in Cruz Bay in the past and I really enjoyed this change of scenery. And or course.. THE VIEWS. The owner and the property managers were so helpful and lovely. We'll be back.
