About this property

Villa Solare - Private Pool! Awesome sunset view!

You will love the Spectacular Sunsets over Great Cruz Bay and the Lights of St. Thomas from the new pool deck of Villa Solare. Wonderful 30' X 12' pool and covered patio were added in the fall of 2015. Located in the quiet neighborhood of Great Cruz Bay Estates, Villa Solare offers easy 10-minute access to downtown (no hair-pin curves or roller coaster hills), convenient to shopping, restaurants and North Shore beaches.

Upon entering the Villa property, you experience the natural Caribbean artistry of stone & shell archways, brick courtyard and tropical gardens. The Villa features a Main house with two Master Suites and a Guest Cottage with 3 additional suites. New A/C in the main living area! All bedrooms are air-conditioned and have private full baths. Each bedroom includes flat screen Roku TVs, and Ceiling fans. Wonderful mahogany cathedral ceilings, doors and paneling throughout, complete the Caribbean experience. The two upper level rooms of the Guest Cottage have beautiful new outdoor showers with Caribbean Stone detail. Early 2018, one of the upper guest bedrooms was converted to a studio apartment with small kitchen, indoor eating and sofa with integrated deluxe queen bed. Great for creating separate living for grandparents or young adults.

In addition to the two Master Suites, the Main House features a newly renovated Kitchen with stainless steel appliances and serving/entertaining island, spacious Dining Area and Casual Living Room. Walk from the Living Area onto the spacious deck and relax around your private pool, overlooking the moorings of Great Cruz Bay. The new covered deck accommodates casual dining for 10 as well as a sitting area to escape the afternoon sun or occasional showers.

From the Guest House, enjoy great views from the elevated deck or relax in the shaded patios beneath.

Plenty of parking with easy turn-around. The gently sloping yard is perfect for families with small children or elderly. Easy 5 min. walk to the Westin for beaches, bars and boat rentals/excursions. Wonderful venue for Family Reunions or Wedding Party accommodations.

A feature we know our guests are sure to enjoy is the solar panels with the battery backup system. If the power goes out, the batteries will kick in, so you will not be without power. This will be a welcomed amenity for those unexpected power outages.

Rates assume double occupancy per bedroom.

We've been to St. John a couple times and Villa Solare was outstanding. The host was very communicative before we arrived, they told us exactly where to meet the on island staff and that person drove us to the location which was perfect (near the Westin). The house is amazing. They supplied portable Blue Tooth Beach Speakers, Beach Towels, and beach chairs. Other amenities included a nice parking stall, quality (large) beds, games, lots of dishes, and some supplies. We also enjoyed playing with the family cat (kept) outside. Excellent location, place was super nice and perfect with 2 houses so we're not tripping over each other. Thanks Susan for letting us use your wonderful place.

MOST AMAZING STAY

We absolutely loved our stay. This was the most relaxing and enjoyable spot on all of St. John. Susan and Thom were amazing host. It was our first trip to St. John’s and the Virgin Islands so we had lots of questions and they gave us great suggestions and really made our stay relaxing and wonderful. The pool and view is even better than the pictures. The house was really perfect for us as everybody had their own room to go and relax, but we could all meet up to eat dinner and hang out by the pool. The kitchen and house are so well stocked my family loved every minute of our vacation and can’t wait to return.

Awesome family vacation home

This was our first stay at Villa Solare and were so pleased with the house. We are a family of ten with two young children and an 81 year old grandmother. Home accommodated everyone. The outside living area is beautiful. Cooked and ate outside 6 of the seven nights there. Coffee in the early morning on the patio was so relaxing with the island sounds of the roosters, frogs and ferries waking up the island. After a day on one of the many beautiful beaches, all were anxious to return to the patio for the beautiful sunsets. Location was also perfect. Quiet but close to everything. Hope to return to Villa Solare in the future.

Great Stay

Had 10 Adults stay in Villa Solare for 5 nights, and four of us stayed for an additional 4 nights. All in all a great experience, the house is well suited for a large or small group. Kitchen is great, bedrooms are air conditioned, and the deck views are very nice. 7-8 minute drive to Cruz Bay. Nothing's too far on the island from here, it's a good location to launch from for your day trips. St. John Market is on the way to town and much closer, which we found is much cheaper than the other markets closer to town. Very quiet, good for walks. This place is just as advertised. Susan is very easy to deal with. Thanks again!

2nd time staying in this gorgeous villa

The Villa is beautiful and spacious. Amenities as advertised. When we stayed the first time in Dec 2019, we had 9 people and all the rooms were comfy for all. I recall both bedrooms in the main house having queen beds. Now there is a king and a double. The upgraded king was wonderful, but the double bed was unexpected. I didn’t read the listing close enough to catch those changes. Thank you for the full size mirror in the bathroom. I made that suggestion after getting married on Trunk Bay. We had a beautiful stay! We will be back.

2nd time at Villa Solare

This was our 2nd time staying at Villa Solare. The new pool and patio are phenomenal and add so much to the house. The outside dining area and sitting space were constantly being used. The pool is amazing. We stay each year in St. John with our two small children and rent cribs/supplies from Island Baby. We bring along the grandparents also! I think every grandparent now has a picture of the view as their background screen on their Ipads. The house is easy to get to, close to the food markets and town. We are planning our stay for next year. Not a bad driveway for the car but better to have 4WD. Some St. John driveways are insanely steep, this one isn't too bad. Wifi a bit spotty but this is common for the island. Susan is a great owner to work with. An issue with the kitchen sink was fixed within an hour by the villa handyman.

We just got back from a week at Villa Solare. This was our second time staying here.We have stayed at a few houses in Great Cruz Bay, and this one is the best. The house is clean, the pool is a good size, the kitchen is well equiped, and there is a nice collection of soft coolers and blue tooth speakers to choose from. Not to mention the view!The driveway is on an angle, so if you purchase a watermelon from Starfish Market, my recomendation is taking it to the house on the first trip less it rolls out of the trunk, down the driveway, across the road, and lands in the neighbor's flower bed.Our family plans on staying here again.

St. John family trip

We were interested in getting a private retreat with a private pool. Each bedroom had its own bathroom. It had a large veranda with a beautiful pool and the sunset views were the best. It was the perfect place during the ongoing covid pandemic.

Family Vacation 2021

This property was great for our family of 7 adults and 1 toddler. We all had our own space and lot's of family space. The Villa felt like a family house and had everything we needed to stay comfortably. The main master bedroom on the 1st floor is much nicer and bigger than represented in the pictures. It has a king bed and has lot's of room. The rooms all stayed cool. The patio by the pool does get hot in the afternoon, but we were at the beaches most days. The bay view was unobstructed and very beautiful day and night. Would definitely stay there again!!

Beautiful Home, Incredible View

We had a wonderful time with our adult children and their families. The view from the home was incredible each morning and evening. We were shown around by Kay Ann when we arrived, she was extremely gracious and knowledgeable. The house was clean and had all the amenities necessary for our 10 day stay. There were 4 adult couples with 2 grandchildren and the way the home is laid out we each had our own space. The highlight of the home for us was the pool and patio which was where we spent our time when we were home. The home is located close enough to town where it isn't an inconvenience to go, but far enough to enjoy the serenity of the island. We would highly recommend this home for your stay.

Beautiful property

Hi We just arrived home last night as we stayed at Grand Bay with friends for another week. ViilsSolare was everything we wanted. Beautiful view and very clean. The pool was great to come back to after a day at the beach. The only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is we only a had grill for 2 nights as it didn’t work and we lost a lot of food. Also it was said to have queen beds and they were only double and that made it a little difficult. Caribbean Villas were quick to respond to everything but the grill took days to replace and it certainly was not their fault. Alison Murray

Nice property in a great location. Great pool area and view.

We had a few minor issues at first but the manager was quick to get them remedied. This was our 4th trip to the VI and the house worked great for our group of 10. The driveway is a little steep but that is the way things are in the VI. Pool area worked great and the view is fantastic. Location is close to Cruz Bay for restaurants/shopping and most of the beaches are 15 minutes away.

Family vacation

We were finally able to vacation with our adult children at the Villa Solare. It was perfect for us! The pool patio was amazing and we spent most of our time out there, in the morning or evening watching the sunset. It is close to Cruz Bay so driving in for dinner or groceries was easy. The kitchen was well stocked, even though we only cooked in one night. The separate bedrooms with bathrooms were all great. I wish I was still there! We will really try to come back!! We were met at the dock by Kay, who did a great job showing us around. Thank you so much for sharing this home and beautiful island.

Incredible view, amazing pool and patio, lots of space

We had a fantastic stay on St. John for an family reunion with 10 people ages 3 to 67. The house has everything we needed for an amazing week away. We especially loved the patio and pool area. We spent almost all of our time at the house outside on the patio. Great location near Cruz Bay but very quiet at night. The home owner is very responsive and helpful. Most definitely one of the best places our family has ever stayed at!

Friends Group Trip

The view at every time of the day was phenomenal. There is no better way to drink your morning coffee than watching the sunrise on the bay. We were met at the dock by Kay who explained to us everything we needed to know about the Villa and the Island. Everything was very clean and well appointed. The Villa had all the amenities needed for a trip to the island: blender, beach chairs, cooler, pool floats, and beach towels. The kitchen was well stocked with pots and pans, and big enough to cook a meal for 10. Overall, an excellent experience on the best island in the Caribbean.
