— YOUR PRIVATE ISLAND RETREAT —

Relax and experience island life in this stylish and peaceful private space overlooking the Caribbean.

Wake up to beautiful ocean views, enjoy your coffee while watching sailboats pass in the distance, and end your day as the sky transforms during a Caribbean sunset.

From the property, you can enjoy sweeping views toward St. Croix, Puerto Rico, Water Island and Hassel Island, surrounded by tropical greenery.

Your private retreat offers everything you need for a comfortable St. Thomas getaway, including A/C, a full private kitchen, strong WiFi and your own dedicated parking space.

— A/C + SOLAR & 4 TESLA POWERWALLS —

One feature that many first-time visitors don't think to look for when choosing a St. Thomas vacation rental is reliable backup power.

Power outages are a reality of island life and can sometimes last for several hours. Without adequate backup power, that can mean losing A/C, WiFi and other comforts during your vacation.

That's why we've invested in a large solar system with 4 Tesla Powerwalls designed to help keep the property comfortable and powered through extended grid outages.

Not all backup systems have enough battery capacity to handle a lengthy outage, which is why we feel this is such an important feature for our guests.

For us, reliable backup power isn't simply another amenity—it's an important part of making your stay comfortable and stress-free.

You're coming to St. Thomas to relax and have fun, not worry about whether the island grid is on!

— STRONG WIFI —

We know staying connected is important, even when you're escaping to an island.

The property offers strong, reliable WiFi, making it easy to stream, stay connected with family or get a little work done if needed.

— GREAT CENTRAL LOCATION —

One of the best features of this property is its location.

You'll enjoy a peaceful, private setting in the Frenchman's Bay area while still being conveniently located for exploring St. Thomas.

Nearby you'll find beaches, restaurants, Havensight, downtown Charlotte Amalie and easy access to the island's main roads.

You can spend the morning at one beach, head into town for lunch, explore another part of the island in the afternoon and still be home in time to enjoy the sunset.

— LOCAL TIP: DON'T LIMIT YOURSELF TO ONE BEACH —

We often get asked, "What is your favorite Beach?"

The great news is that you have beaches just minutes away—but here's our local advice:

Don't plan your St. Thomas vacation around just one beach!

One of the best parts of visiting the Virgin Islands is exploring. Try a different St. Thomas beach each day, drive to Red Hook and take the ferry to St. John, or get out on the water and explore the British Virgin Islands.

That's why we love this location. You're not tied to one resort or one beach—you have a convenient home base for experiencing everything the island has to offer.

— BEACH DAYS MADE EASIER —

Heading to the beach?

We provide beach chairs and a cooler for our guests, so you can pack some drinks and snacks, choose a beach and enjoy the day.

Then come home, cool off in the A/C and relax while the sun sets over the Caribbean.

— JEEP RENTALS —

We highly recommend having a vehicle if you'd like to really explore St. Thomas.

For added convenience, we have fully loaded Jeeps available to rent, subject to availability.

Having your own Jeep makes it easy to discover different beaches, restaurants, viewpoints and parts of the island on your own schedule.

Just ask us for availability and details.

— BOAT CHARTERS & ISLAND ADVENTURES —

Want to experience more of the Virgin Islands?

We also own Caribbean Blue Boat Charters and Island Life Jeep Tours.

Whether you'd like a day on the water, a trip to St. John or the British Virgin Islands, or an island adventure with local guides, we're happy to help you plan it.

There is absolutely no obligation—we simply love helping our guests experience the islands.

— LOCAL HOSTS & FREE CONCIERGE HELP —

We live on St. Thomas and are always happy to share our local knowledge.

Wondering which beach to visit? Looking for a great restaurant, snorkeling spot, sunset location or something a little less touristy?

Just ask!

Our complimentary concierge help is available to make planning your trip easier. We want you to spend less time researching and more time enjoying St. Thomas.

— TRAVELING WITH FRIENDS OR FAMILY? —

Traveling with another couple, family members or friends who would like to stay nearby while still enjoying their own private space?

Please contact us. We have another property nearby and also know other local vacation rental owners who may be able to accommodate your group.

If this property is unavailable for your dates or you need a larger home, take a look at our other VRBO listing #3191748.

— FIRST TIME IN ST. THOMAS? —

We're happy to help!

Driving, choosing beaches, grocery shopping, ferries and getting around St. Thomas can be a little different from what you're used to at home.

We can answer questions before your arrival and help you feel prepared for your island adventure.

— COME EXPERIENCE ST. THOMAS —

Spend your days discovering beaches, exploring St. Thomas, taking the ferry to St. John or enjoying a day on the water.

Then come home to your peaceful private retreat, turn on the A/C, relax with an ocean view and watch another beautiful Caribbean sunset.

Our goal is simple: to make your St. Thomas vacation comfortable, easy and memorable.

We look forward to welcoming you!

This is our 2nd time staying here. The house is very clean and perfect for 2 people. The view and outdoor space brought us back. This time we rented a Jeep from Kristy. It is ABSOLUTELY the way to go. She picks you up and drops you off at the airport. Last time we waited forever (several hours) for a rental and the whole experience was painful and expensive.
