About this property

Coral Caribe Villa at Fish Bay - 1 Bedroom


Coral Caribe is nestled on a hill overlooking beautiful Fish Bay on the southern shore of St John. Fish Bay is a very quiet, peaceful area. This beautiful 1 bedroom upper villa has everything to make your vacation complete. Kitchen has all necessary appliances and utensils. Dining room table seats 4 or enjoy your meals on the expansive deck. Relax on the new furniture on the deck. Wake up to a gorgeous view of Fish Bay from the king-size bed. Full bathroom is located off the bedroom. October 2019 we added a Murphy bed in the Living Room area and a half bath. The villa can now accommodate 4 people comfortably. Ceiling fans and the trade winds usually create a comfortable temperature in the house. There is a split unit air conditioner in the Living Room and a small unit in the bedroom if needed. December 2021 we added additional solar panels with battery back-up, so you shouldn't have to deal with island power outages. Comfortable rattan furniture to watch television or gaze out the patio doors and enjoy the view. Dish Network is provided. Smart TV, for use of Netflix, etc. On clear days, you can see St Croix. Beach chairs, beach towels, noodles and coolers are provided for your use, as you enjoy your adventures to the many beautiful beaches on the island. Beaches on the north shore are approximately a twenty minute drive. St John is two thirds National Park, so you can also hike the many trails on the island. Cruz Bay is about a ten minute drive from the villa. You can enjoy many dining options as well as music at the local establishments. The water at the house runs through a UV filtration system. Bathroom towels are provided. Wi-Fi is available. AT&T and Sprint carriers normally work on the island, although cell phone service is spotty. Our manager, will greet you at the ferry dock. He can bring you to Coral Caribe Villa or take you to a Jeep Rental of your choice and you can follow him to the house. You may also want to stop in town to pick up groceries on your way. There is limited Taxi service to the villa. A Jeep rental is recommended.
$25 per night per additional guest over 2 guests .

Splendid

The property and its location was exactly what we were hoping for. Splendid view of Fish Bay made you want to linger on the balcony. It is clean, convenient, with a well stocked kitchen, and you couldn’t ask for better hosts. We would return in a heartbeat.

Winter Getaway

The home was very clean and tidy. The view was beautiful. Plenty of spices and cooking items that you hate to have to buy for a short stay. We REALLY appreciated the extra snorkel gear and beach chairs. We ended up not having to rent them. We loved the property! Thank you!

Great honeymoon stay!

The view is amazing everyday. Only minutes from the market and Cruz Bay. The road up is a bit of an adventure, but there are only a couple neighbors so not much traffic. We loved it!

Exceeded our expectations

The Coral Caribe Villa had everything we needed; it exceeded our expectations, and the view was amazing. The Sprangers were wonderful hosts, meeting us at the ferry dock when we arrived to guide us to the villa. They also provided helpful tips on where to visit and eat. We felt comfortable and very safe during our stay. The trade winds ensured comfortable temperatures, allowing us to leave the windows open day and night, eliminating the need to run the A/C.

Coral Caribe

The place was exactly as described and was a perfect fit for my family. It’s located in a very safe and quiet neighborhood, but still close to town. I loved the fact that beach and snorkel gear was provided as it made the trip much more enjoyable for everyone. Luckily my wife and I lived on an island for about 3 years and we were accustomed to water conservation, so short showers and turning water off while washing dishes was normal for us. The house was well appointed with everything you would need, including a fully stocked kitchen (less food). When we come back to St. John in the future, we will definitely stay here again!

This is a perfect island getaway! The space is delightfully decorated, immaculately clean, has thoughtful amenities, and includes a stunning view of my favorite St John bay. The hosts are great: friendly but not intrusive, good communicators. You’ll love Coral Caribe!

lovely week

We really enjoyed our stay! The view is wonderful and can be seen from the bedroom, the dining area and the living area (and of course on the deck). The apartment was breezy. We appreciated the clothes line which came in so handy for drying our stuff. We love that Cruz Bay is an easy 10-minutes away but we can also take a different route that bypasses Cruz Bay to get to the North and East shores. Would definitely want to stay here again in the future.

Fantastic view and super clean rooms

The location of the house is very convenient, close to the restaurant and ferry, yet still quiet as it sits on top of the hills. There are indeed some sharp turns on your way going up, hence a 4-wheel drive car is much needed. The rooms are clean and big enough to make the three of us stay comfortably. The hosts are super nice and extremely helpful, and we will definitely come back again!

Amazing experience!!!

You couldn't ask for a better place to stay. SOOOO peaceful, beautiful views, well furnished, with attention to detail, and excellent host! Melisa and Rob are the best! It's obvious they take pride in their property. The location is very secluded, but the opposite end of the island (which was Hansen Beach, our favorite) is only a 35 minute drive. You'll be 12 minutes from Cruz Bay where most of the restaurants and stores are located, and a maximum of 30 minutes from all the most popular beaches. If you are on your vacation for peace and relaxation, Coral Caribe on St John will be a perfect destination!

Perfect vacation home!

I just got back from an amazing stay at Coral Caribe with my husband and our 15 year old. The description of this place is spot on. The views are amazing and the photos don't do it justice. The place was very clean and comfortable and the unit is very well stocked. The added bonus was Bob the cat, who really made the place feel like a home. We would love to return in the future, though next time we hope to stay longer. Thanks Melisa and Scott!

About the host

Hosted by Melisa Sprangers

Host profile image
It was always our dream to own a house on St John. We spent our honeymoon at Cinnamon Bay Campground and fell in love with the island. We have been back many times to vacation. My husband is a contractor and I have a small accounting business. We hope to start spending winters in St John, to get away from the cold of Wisconsin.

Why they chose this property

We finally found this house with a fantastic view in the very quiet neighborhood of Fish Bay. We purchased the house in June of 2016. With the help of our son/manager and a few other people, we have updated and remodeled. The upper level is ready to rent. We stay in the two bedroom lower level, when we are on island. At times, we do rent out the lower level. We hope many people will enjoy our piece of paradise!

What makes this property unique

We love the beautiful view of Fish Bay. I love listening to all the birds, frogs and insects outside when we go to bed at night. The sounds are so soothing. The abundance of stars in the sky in St John is amazing. I can sit on the deck for hours gazing at the stars and watching cruise ships leave St Thomas, all lit up.
