Sweet Serenity

My husband and I loved this villa. The wrap around deck was gorgeous and we loved watching the hummingbirds and iguanas. We felt like we were in a jungle tree house. It was super clean and exactly as pictured. It was also super quiet and we had the pool all to ourselves for the week because no one was staying in the neighboring villas. It was convenient to town and the north shore beaches which was a plus. Luciah the property manager was so nice and always there if we needed anything. I would highly recommend staying in this villa. I would definitely not hesitate to rent again. Some of my favorites were Gibney Beach, Maho, Salt Pond, Ram's Head, St John Scoops, High Tide and Skinny Legs. St John has my heart and Villa Bliss will never be forgotten. Thanks for sharing this little slice of paradise with us.

Excellent 180 degree view from wonderful deck!

This is a magical place to stay! You are up in hills with a delightful breeze, gorgeous views since the villa is on the end and so very peaceful. For first timers as we were, the steepness of the hills is very dramatic, combining not only extreme steepness but sharp ,steep turns. To go anywhere out of Cruz Bay you will need a Jeep's 4 wheel drive and you will need it to get up to this incredible villa. It's worth every penny and you are above the Westin with its view but you get so much more! I can't wait to go back! The villa itself is lovely, good kitchen, very nice bathroom, outside shower, 2 places to sleep, downstairs on a pullout and up in a loft on a bed, very good air conditioning. They have beach chairs and snorkeling equipment and good beach towels. I love this place!!!

Gorgeous views

Great view. Nice outdoor space. Cleanliness was an issue for us as was the spiral staircase - you could get hurt trying to get a suitcase up - so unpack downstairs and bring everything up. Could also update the linens and towels. Pitch the old bath products (used bar soap left for us) and condiments in the fridge-nobody wants to use them. Management was disorganized , bad communication. Waited to be picked up at the ferry for about an hour even though I texted her as soon as we boarded the ferry in St Thomas. Her vehicle was PACKED with stuff. Barely enough room for us. Definitely could not stop for groceries. Bad start to the trip. Overall we had a great time on the island. We’ll be back but staying somewhere else.

Springtime in paradise.

This property is perched on a steep hill which we found is typical for properties in St John. This was a surprise for a midwesterner used to flat rolling plains. Every picture describing this property is accurate. The view from the patio/balcony was amazing! The spiral staircase to the bedroom/loft maybe an issue for mobility challenged persons. The pool was not highlighted enough. The views were also incredible from the pool deck. The pool was very private even though it was shared with other villas. The staff at the National Park Visitor center were extremely helpful and informative. The villa was located close to stores and to the city of Cruz Bay. Bring some bug spray or lotion to keep the “no see ums” away. We visited during a rainy week, but there there were plenty of sunny views of the many beaches and for the hiking trails. Overall, the stay was everything you expect for a visit to paradise.

Fantastic rental

This was a great rental! The views from the deck were absolutely spectacular! From the property you’re within a few minutes of Cruz Bay and about 15-20 min to the north shore beaches. The rental has everything you need for a day at the beach! We can’t wait to rent Villa Bliss again!

Perfect Sunset Location

We had a wonderful week on St, John using Villa Bliss as our home. The views are amazing and the location is spot on, it's only a 3 minute drive from all the restaurants and shopping, it's only a 15 minute drive to all of the popular north end beaches. The property manager Luciah met us at the car ferry and led us to the villa the first time, this was very helpful as we were new to the island. I miss the sunsets already and will definitely stay here again!

Gorgeous View

This villa has to have one of the most amazing views on St. John. It is so close to Cruz Bay, which is convenient for all the food. It is also not a far drive to get to the many beaches. We loved the amenities provided such as the coolers, beach bags, chairs, snorkels and fins, and beach towels. We definitely recommend this place, and also recommend renting a jeep for your stay. We loved this place even though the water pressure in the shower leaves a lot to be desired and we were given only one roll of toilet paper.

Picture Perfect at Villa Bliss!

We had a great stay over New Years at Villa Bliss! The property was as described with great amenities. We enjoyed having the beach chairs, cooler, and snorkel fins to use. The views were amazing! We had several sunset happy hours on the deck! The proximity to Cruz Bay was convenient. We had a rental car and it was just a quick drive in. Communication with Dan and the property managers was easy and helpful. We will definitely return to Bliss!

Bliss condo

This was our second trip to the island. Bliss is such a great location to the Bay for shopping, eating and charters. The views are phenomenal of both St Thomas and the hills of St John. I might not suggest this unit for the more mature couple as the spiral staircase is rather challenging. We look forward to returning to St John and creating many more happy memories.

Amazing Balcony and Views

Property manager Luciah was great and assisted with of needs. Are rental car company (Courtesy Car) met us at the ferry and brought us to the rental location to pick up our jeep, and Luciah met us there and took us to our condo. I'd have to say, driving on the island and on the opposite side (left) of road is a challenge but like anything else you get use to it, the drive and road to condo is very steep, glad to have rented a jeep LOL. Balcony and views were amazing, just enough space for two, spiral stair case and loft bedroom is quite challenging for our older age, but we manage. we'd definite return next year. Thank you Daniel. Our time was wonderful and met nice people on the beach especially Reef 2 Beach at Maho which we made our daily stop.

This place is a perfect stay for two people. Very nice and clean. On par with other more expensive places we have stayed on the island. Only complaint was that when the neighbors got there you could here every word they said through the walls. We would definitely stay at this place again though.

It really is Bliss - our favorite!

My wife and I have been to the island together 12 times now and Bliss is the only villa where we've stayed on multiple occasions (3 times). We like to stay in different spots on the island for the different vibes, but we are getting ready to book Bliss again for next year and here's why: The view from the covered deck is incredible all day long and it's under shade most of the day; especially the hottest part of the day. Even though it's in the upper deck complex, you feel like you're all alone. You can sit in the comfy chairs and read a book while the breeze blows constantly, keeping everything nice and cool. Bonus: You get to see sunset from the one of the best views on island. The villa itself is very comfortable with a nice, well equipped kitchen, large shower, and a living area with the same great view as the deck. They furnish fins, masks, beach chairs and noodles. That is going to save you $$ not having to go rent them! The loft upstairs is plenty cool with the a/c blowing as cold as you want right on you in a very large, clean and comfortable bed. The view out the window there is also tremendous! Location is 5 minutes from Cruz Bay/Mongoose. 10 or 15 minutes to the beaches. 30 minutes to Coral Bay. Taxis will go up there, but it's hard for them and they don't like it. We always get a jeep. I'd give 6 stars if they would let me. The owners are some of the sweetest people on the planet and our experience couldn't have been better!

Stunning Views and best location!

My husband and I absolutely LOVED our stay at Bliss! The greeter met us at our Jeep rental to guide us to rental which was necessary with the twists and turns and getting used to driving on left side of road. He was very kind and showed us around. The view: holy cow. The porch or dreams! We spent most of our time on porch when at the house. Not enough words to express how great it was but we will be back! The outdoor shower: one of my favorite features we used each day! The rental was clean, had coffee pot and I cooked breakfast each morning with gas range. The spiral stairs were fine and the upstairs bedroom we only used for sleeping. - thankfully I brought our sleep mask bc the AC light is very bright and there are no window covering above the bed. If I could give one recommendation (the only one!) it would be to have currents over windows that can be drawn as needed. There were no other guests in vicinity while we were there so we had the pool to ourselves which was another bonus. Overall, we felt on top of the island with incredible views, peaceful with the sounds of birds and will definitely be back!

Beautiful views from the deck that runs along 2 sides of the villa. One side of deck is covered so you can still enjoy the views during a spot shower, the other, perfect for sunning. Has a grill for those evenings when dont feel like eating out. 2 groceries within 2 minutes, and town 3 minutes away. full amenities including washer and dryer. If you go,, just dont book my week!!
