Luxury St. John Villas – not Just for the Rich and Famous

Imagine having your own private sanctuary on a Caribbean island. You have a gourmet kitchen, where you can cook meals at your leisure. Your spacious private suite is the perfect place to unwind, while the pool provides the ultimate relaxation spot. After sunset, the villa’s spa is the perfect place to lay back and watch the stars.
Unfortunately, this St. John Caribbean villa experience is only open to the rich and famous, right? Wrong!

A private villa high on a hilltop with an astounding view is within reach, often at a comparable or cheaper rate than an island resort. In fact, the island’s plentiful world-class villas can sometimes be downright bargain-rate.

If you and seven of your friends are searching for the best accommodations at the lowest rate, consider this: a four-suite luxury villa for eight people, which may average $8,000 per week, will end up costing each couple just $285 per night – far cheaper than any resort on island. Villas accommodating eight people can be found for as little as $5,500 in high season – that’s just $200 a night per couple! The deals get even sweeter in low season.

A St. John villa vacation is an entirely different experience from the impersonal nature of big hotels and resorts. At a villa, the entire property is yours. The villa is literally your home away from home. You can sit on the balcony in your pajamas, sipping fresh-brewed coffee as you take in the breathtaking view.

Your own private pool is free from the constant commotion prevalent at resort pools. And, best of all, you can enjoy this luxury vacation without breaking your piggy bank.
V.I. villa prices can be so much lower than resort prices, and when you rent a villa, you get so much more. With a villa vacation, you make your own schedule. You won’t have to hurry through the crowd to the resort’s restaurant in time for their breakfast selection, or struggle to seek solace from the swarm of hotel guests.

The villa itself can help you save money as well. You can prepare casual meals right “at home” in the villa’s kitchen if you desire, helping save up for those few special meals out at the island’s many fine dining restaurants.

With the villa experience, you’ll step away from the hustle and bustle of being a tourist at a resort. Villas offer you the chance to immerse yourself in island culture. In fact, your next door neighbor may be one of our many friendly island locals.

At your home away from home, you can do what you want, when you want. Hop in your car and discover a secluded stretch of sand, where you can try your hand at snorkeling. Your villa is the perfect place to unwind after a day of exploration, and to recharge for the next day’s adventures.

And don’t think that because a villa offers private seclusion, you’ll be forgotten by the management company should any problems arise. Some villa management companies offer maid service, and many companies are local, meaning you’ll have someone to turn to should you need them.

Villas are often well-stocked with the amenities you need for a perfect vacation: TVs, stereos, DVD players, gas grills, beach chairs, beach towels, coolers, books, board games and much more.

With comparable or cheaper rates, there really is no reason not to take advantage of one of the Virgin Islands’ high-class villas. You can experience luxury vacation accommodations without putting a huge dent in your wallet.
