SPECTACULAR OCEAN VIEW VILLA BLISS AT UPPER DECK

Bliss is one of St John's unknown secrets with amazing panoramic views of the Caribbean Sea, St Thomas, St Croix (on a clear day) to various other islands and cays. Beautiful Sunsets and Rainbows right from the deck! Located just above the Westin Resort in Great Cruz Bay, this villa is 3 minutes from Cruz Bay, the grocery stores, restaurants, shopping, hiking trails and much more! Bliss is a two level, one bedroom, one bath condo featuring custom sliders in both living and bedroom areas to capture the largest ocean view from any room. The Living Room has a Sleeper Sofa. The large wrap around deck features covered and uncovered areas for sunbathing, shade and outdoor dining. Cool breezes surround and stunning sunsets are an every night spectacle you won't want to miss! It has absolutely everything you could possibly need to pamper yourself, including full kitchen with stainless refrigerator, dishwasher, gas cook top, oven, microwave, coffee maker, toaster and blender. Feel like a Queen (or King) in Bliss' complete marble bathroom, large marble walk in shower, mirrors and lots of space to move around. The living area is fully equipped with sleeper sofa, leather ottoman, satellite TV & A/C wrapped around by blue sky. Spiral staircase leads up to the master bedroom which features King size "Heavenly Bed" with A/C. And a communal pool just steps away from the villa! This is your time and these memories will last a life time....remember them in Bliss!

Secluded retreat difficult to reach

The place was truly AMAZING and the spiral staircase was not an issue but the steep hill to get both up and down for us was a dealbreaker. Owners were great as they tried to help us out by giving us names of private taxis instead of us using our rented jeep. It was not their fault that we only stayed one of 5 nights but we were there for my daughter's wedding and the thought of getting back up that hill after the rehearsal dinner and the evening wedding the next day, was too much for us. We also were not use to those steep hills and realized that St John is a lot of steep hills. Feral cats on property were not disclosed.

Bliss with Views

We rented Villa Bliss for 10 days in January 2025, and we had a wonderful time. The communication with Dan was excellent, and Lucy met us at the boat. Any time we had questions, Dan was a text away. The location is quite near Cruz Bay, and up a rather steep hill. I would recommend renting a vehicle here, and we had an AWD Toyota. Dan put the villa in Google maps so it is easy to navigate to once you begin to explore.We loved the set-up with an indoor/outdoor living feel- coffee in the morning overlooking Cruz bay on the deck, and then be out of the villa most of the day either hiking or at the beach, and then get home for twilight with the sunset views.The bathroom is clean and efficient. The kitchen is well equipped with a gorgeous fridge, and the stove top and oven were handy as we ate both breakfast and dinner at the villa.The villa does share a wall with the unit next door. One can hear others when that unit is occupied. When we were there Manny, the owner of the next door unit was there, and he was super friendly. Because I had read another review about the thin-walls I brought noise-cancelling headphones for sleep. I did not need to use them because the neighbors were quiet around 10 pm. Because it is football playoff times, it was nice (at least for my husband) to have a many channels available to watch games. The bed was comfy and it felt a bit like climbing into a tree-house using the spiral staircase. I would rent this villa again in a heartbeat.

Perfect

The view. I actually cried. It was breathtaking from early morning coffee to late night drinks on the deck. Beautiful sunsets.The villa was immaculate clean…and I am picky about that.We quickly got used to the spiral staircase. We are in our late 50’s and neither extremely fit or disabled but didn’t have issues with it. It may not be suitable for elderly or people with other issues.The villa has ample air conditioning upstairs and on the main level but there’s always a breeze so we did shut them off one day.There were no bugs or critters! None! Nothing inside or out. It was so comfortable to be out on the deck with that beautiful view.We will definitely be back and have already referred a friend!

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.

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.

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.

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.
