About this property

Walk to world famous Maho Bay! Privacy, views, pool, 4 equal king size bedrooms.

Stunning luxury villa overlooking world-famous Maho Bay in St John, USVI. Maho Bay was just named among the top 25 beaches in the WORLD by Trip Advisor. Surrounded by National Park, you'll enjoy unparalleled privacy and a short walk to one of the top beaches in the world.
The home is brand-new and has been designed for maximal enjoyment including pool, full air-conditioning, and expansive views throughout. Some highlights include:
-The walk to the beach. This is KEY. No more packing into a jeep! No more group decisions about when to go and when to leave. Mornings and evenings Maho Bay is ALL YOURS!
-The view. BREATHTAKING. Countless shades of blue during the day, then beautiful sunsets, and at night you see the lights of St. Thomas and the moored boats.
-Oversized outdoor areas.
-Large pool terrace and pool with beautiful view of Maho Bay.
-An oversized outdoor dining area for meals under the stars.
-Built in grill and outdoor pizza oven.
-Full House generator
-Panoramic Maho Bay views from every room, even the showers.
-The four large bedroom suites are virtually identical, including views. Each is named for the color of their beautiful king-sized beds, each repurposed from far-eastern temple doors: Green Suite, Blue Suite, Yellow Suite, Gold Suite. Ever share a rental and wind up with the worst bedroom? We designed the home to ensure all guests have an equal, terrific experience.
Even by St. John standards this home is a unique find!

My extended family of kids and grandkids had a fantastic stay! The villa was extremely private (not another home in sight), yet it's within easy walking distance to Maho Beach. It was really the best of both worlds. My grandkids loved the pool and it's the perfect depth for little ones. The views, dark skies at night and easy access to beaches and hiking trails all make this a special place. The property manager Mary, was also really responsive and helpful. We are already looking forward to our next stay.

Your own private resort

We stayed 5 nights with family and had the best vacation. Staying at the house is like having your own private resort. We walked to Maho bay beach a few times which was great that we didn’t need the car. You need to be in reasonable shape though tolong and steep

Maho Bay

An absolutely unique property on St. John, you won't find another location on the island that allows you to walk to Maho Bay and is also a short drive to other North Shore beaches. 4 identical master suites and a large main house with a significant patio provide plenty of room for everyone to spread out.

Phenomenal home!

This is one of the most dramatic homes ever, with pure views of Maho Bay and the neighboring islands. The bay gets crowded during the day with visitors, but we had the beach (and turtles!) to ourselves every morning and afternoon. Can’t imagine a better home base for our family’s visit to SJ!

Maho Bay House

We had a wonderful time at the Maho Bay House. 8th trip to St John and Maho Bay House was a unique location and experience. Beautiful home with fantastic views of Maho Bay. Easy walk to the beach where we spent quite a few days. The home is set up beautifully for a group of 4 couples. We have stayed at many homes with pool tables, but here we actually used the table every day. The team did a wonderful job supporting us during our stay. We have already booked 2 more weeks for next year.

An absolute amazing property! Far exceeds the pics and description given! I hosted a surprise 50th bday for my wife and we had 4 couples who truly enjoyed every moment. The four matching mast bedrooms are wonderful so all couples have the same decor and style. We would definitely stay again. The property manager on island is east to contact and get back with us right away.

ABSOLUTELY STUNNING! Very private. Surrounded by nature. The house is better in person. Plenty of space inside and out. Bedrooms are great. Beds are comfortable. Kitchen and living space is great with a pool table. Pool is refreshing and inviting with amazing views. Wildlife right outside of your rooms. We saw deer, mongoose and iguanas. The pool is comfortable to swim in day and night without being to cold. This is a must if you are looking for complete privacy and a stunning house. Love City Market is a short drive into Coral Bay for provisions. Can't wait to go back!

Friends Bday Trip to St John

Stay was perfect. Mary was a great hostess and very helpful in setting us up for success. Property is so well done, in design, execution, location, amenities. It was refreshing to have the chairs/snorkel equipment/coolers/etc. already there and available for use. The remote location was a feature for us, and trips to town were worth the trouble of retreating to Maho. Amazing that a property like this is available, and perfect for multiple families where no one wants to be stuck with the sleeper couch that many larger properties will use to increase their appeal. We hope to return. Nothing but positives to say from our group.

Amazing Family Vacation

We had a wonderful stay at the Maho Bay House! Our group consisted of three generations of family members ranging in age from 24 - 83. We spent a lot of our time outside admiring the amazing views. The home is so secluded and quiet. I doubt there is anything else like it on the island. Having Maho Bay beach so close was perfect. We spent a lot of time there hanging out in the water. All of the rooms in the home are huge! Lots of space for everyone to hang out or have alone time. A plus that we didn't expect is all of the wildlife that visits the property. We saw deer, crabs, frogs, and all types of birds. This home provided all we needed for a wonderful, relaxing vacation!

Simply Stunning!

I do not think that words alone are capable of describing the indelible beauty and serene peacefulness of this property. It is simply stunning! The Maho Bay house is likely the most unique home on the island. It is simultaneously nestled in the hills overlooking the bay, but is a short, easy walk right to the beach. However, at night, you’re left with the impression that you are the only people on the entirety of the island. It’s truly amazing! I will always remember this grandeur of this house and how perfect a place this is to spend a peaceful time to escape the realities of my day-to-day.

Paradise at Maho House

Our stay was everything and more. The house was beautiful, stocked with all of the beach essentials, and had a million dollar view. We really enjoyed the layout where the rooms are separate from the ‘main building’ (kitchen, dinging), so everyone could socialize and have peace and quiet as needed. We brought our 1.5 year old and it was a great house for kids. The pool, patio, and outdoor areas were awesome. Mary, the property manager was so easy to communicate with and helped us with any logistical questions (like arranging taxis to take us to dinner in Cruz Bay). The location is very secluded (a huge plus for us), and overlooks Maho Bay (a 1 min drive or 6 min walk). This was intentional for our family but is far from most restaurants and the main ‘towns’, each 25-30 min drive on very windy roads (drive on left hand side). So if you need convenience to shopping and multiple restaurants, this is not the place to stay. We can’t wait to return!

About the host

Hosted by Jim K.

Host profile image
We are a family of seven who have been traveling to St. John for fifteen years and felt at home the first time we set foot on the island. It's easy to experience pure joy at Maho Bay, we look forward to sharing it with you.

Why they chose this property

Building on St. John is difficult but we couldn't find any existing homes with the features of this land. The ability to walk to Maho bay can't be overemphasized. Packing five sandy kids in and out of jeeps made going to the beach a chore and that's gone. There's also complete privacy amidst the national park, you only hear waves and birds in the morning, tree frogs and waves at night. The views are ridiculous. We hear all the time now it's the "best view on the island". The construction journey was slowed by hurricanes and now a pandemic but we've persevered and couldn't be happier with the result.

What makes this property unique

-Walk to Maho Bay, frequently ranked among the top beaches in the WORLD!
-PRIVACY, surrounded by Virgin Islands National Parkland.
-Oversized, identical bedroom suites including terraces and views. No rotating bedrooms or having someone feel unlucky.,
-Thoughtfully crafted, large outdoor spaces for dining, cooking, relaxing, and swimming.
-Beautiful and interesting views day, sunset, and night.
