About this property

HEAVENLY VIEWS and PRIVATE POOL!!

PERFECT FOR COUPLES CELEBRATING HONEYMOONS, ANNIVERSARIES AND BIRTHDAYS!

Open your gate to breathtaking views of Sir Francis Drake Channel, the Caribbean and the luscious valley of Coral Bay. Perfect for honeymooners or couples looking for an amazing island experience. This NEW cottage is built for your comfort and will leave you with sweet memories for a lifetime. Set among beautiful flowers, palms and bay trees, this one-bedroom cottage includes a king-size bed situated to wake up and enjoy breathtaking sunrises. The bedroom includes a small sitting area and television. Choose to take a shower in your roomy walk-in shower or enjoy the view from your private outdoor shower.

IMPORTANT: Villa Celeste Vista has solar power along with two Tesla batteries for back-up power!

Relax in your own private pool, dine alfresco or sit in comfortable outdoor seating as you watch sailboats travel through the British Virgin Islands. You'll find everything you need in a large bathroom with two vanities, a kitchenette equipped with a stove, fridge and microwave and a laundry room with a washer & dryer. Your large bedroom includes a sitting area with AC, a SmartTV (no live television), and ROKU, allowing you to access your favorite streaming app. Your "living room" is outside under the porch so you can enjoy the amazing views.

Everything you need for your beach days, is supplied. You'll find beach towels, beach chairs, backpack and coolers.

You'll enjoy laid-back Coral Bay where you'll experience island life with quaint gift shops, live music, and incredible restaurants. AND, only 10 minutes away you'll find the legendary white powder beaches of the North Shore. For the more adventurous, head to the South Shore beaches and hiking trails for a completely different experience. And, your view includes Hurricane Hole, a Coral Reef National Monument, the only habitat of its kind in the Northern Hemisphere.

Note: there is another 2-bedroom villa on the same property in which you'll share the driveway and parking area but Villa Celeste Vista is completely private with a wall, gate and fencing. The other villa is down the hill (reachable by stairs) but not directly under the cottage. The other Villa is also available for rent and is called Villa Celeste Paradis; property #2278755. Please note that it's possible you will hear guests from the other villas in the neighborhood as throughout the Coral Bay Valley as it acts like an amphitheater. Also known to Coral Bay is how quiet it becomes after 10pm.

An amazing anniversary trip!

We had the most amazing experience here! The views from the property are unbelievable. The home itself was extremely clean, well maintained, and very organized. We loved that the owners provided us with coolers, beach chairs, floats, and other necessities for the beach. We will definitely be back to this property!!

We had an amazing stay at Villa Celeste! The views are absolutely amazing! The size was perfect for the two of us for our honeymoon. Joy was so responsive and incredible! Coral bay is a nice peaceful retreat away from the noise of Cruz Bay! Don’t forget your jeep rental. It was a honeymoon we won’t ever forget!

AMAZING VIEWS FROM VILLA CELESTE

As the title suggests the view from the Villa is stunning. The property itself is very well appointed - the bedroom/living area is pleasant and airy, there is an excellent bathroom with large walk in shower and separate large laundry/storage area. The cosy kitchen is very well equipped and accommodated our dining in when it was too windy to sit out. The vast patio area has an excellent and well maintained bbq and plenty of quality furniture. Access to the Villa with its fabulous position requires a jeep or similar (Lois made this clear to us) as the approach road is very steep. Walking to and from Coral Bay is not an option. As keen walkers, the remoteness did not suit us as much as it will undoubtedly suit others. Having said that, we’re pleased we rented Villa Celeste, had a wonderful time and shall return to St John.

Truly was Paradise

We couldn't have enjoyed are stay more. The attention to detail (multiple electrical and USB ports), the total space, and a local contact (if needed) hands down, made this the most enjoyable rental property we have ever stayed at. We would recommend the meet & greet with Joy, especially if you plan on exploring Hurricane hole.

Couples Retreat

My husband and I went to St. John for our 20th wedding anniversary. Villa Celeste was the perfect spot to spend our week. It was extremely private and quiet but close enough to all the areas of the island we wanted to visit. The view was breathtakingly! Incredible to wake up the such beautiful sunrises each morning. Everything about the house was great! Lois provided all the necessary communication and her property manager Joy who was on island was always available for any needs. I have already recommended this property to friends and other couples we met in our travels. Hope to return at some time in the future. Would definitely stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Lois Brayfield

Host profile image
My husband and I have been visiting St John since 1992. We fell in love with this beautiful island and couldn't wait to build a property. We've traveled the world but St John keeps calling us back. We currently live in Missouri and make it to our property about 3 months a year.
We love sharing our villa and do our best to accommodate every need. Having visited over 100 short-term villas, we take note and are constantly trying to improve our own villa.

Why they chose this property

We love the Coral Bay community. The views from our property are breath-taking. We love being on the quiet side of the island, where you are closest to all the best beaches. Trivia night (Johnnie Lime) and open mic night (Miss Lucy's) are a few of our favorite things to do. We get to mix with locals and tourists alike.

What makes this property unique

The views!
Proximity to both North and South shore beaches along with the East End beaches.
