About this property

Affordable Home with Private Pool in a Great Location

Just Do It !!! This Villa name is "Sea Sound Villa" FOR MORE INFO!!! No more excuses, because this home offers an affordable option to renting your own home with private pool at an incredible location just above Pelican Beach. The location is on the East End of St. Thomas, just minutes from the quaint town of Red Hook and the ferry to St. John. Views towards St. John and the British Virgin Islands are amazing.

Sea Sound Villa is within a private gate shared with only two other homes, on the knoll of a hill over beautiful Pelican Beach and adjacent to numerous other white sand beaches. Yes, you can walk to the water. You are also close enough by vehicle to choose a different beach every day, as this is a great location with easy access to everything you need.

Enter from the private drive to an inviting covered porch and pool, offering complete privacy. The pool is quite large in island standards (not just a small dipping pool), and is also handicap accessible. It offers a great mix of sun and shade along with wonderful views. From here, you can enter the home to a door into the kitchen, or around the house at the huge covered veranda that offers the views dreams are made of. The upstairs has two bedrooms and two bathrooms to accompany the outdoor living space (as that is how we prefer to live here in the Virgin Islands). The great room also has a pull out couch for extra guests.

The third bedroom is accessed via a separate outside entrance and has its own full kitchen and bathroom- a complete separate apartment. There is an additional pull out couch downstairs, so the apartment can sleep four. With this kind of setup, you could even vacation with the in-laws!!

The home is complete with Air conditioning not only in the bedrooms, but also in the great room. But with the Easterly breezes blowing, you likely won't need it. This is such a refreshing location just above the water, you will want the doors wide open while you relax on the porch soaking in the views and Caribbean wind therapy.

This home 'Sea Sound Villa" is professionally managed. VRBO doesn't allow me to give information on additional photos. Since we do this for a living, our goal is to give you the perfect vacation retreat. The owner is also on island and stays very involved with the home- keeping it up to the highest of standards.

If you are unfamiliar with this location, please feel to call or email and let me know your questions. This is about a mile from Red Hook, where there are multiple restaurants, bars, shops, and more. It is also where you catch the ferry to St. John. Very nearby beaches are Sapphire Beach and Lindquist Beach, as well as Pelican Beach. It is not a far drive to Coki Beach and Coral World (about three minutes). Mahogany Run Golf Course and Magen's Bay are about a ten minute drive. But you are right in the midst of the nicest beaches St. Thomas has to offer, yet also close to nightlife and St. John.
Rates: Prices shown are base rates to the upstairs unit only may be subject to change if the downstairs unit is added. Please note there are low and high season rates. Once dates and the amount of people in your party are requested we will sent you a rates & availability. Thank You.

Heaven on Earth!!
This house was absolute perfection for my husband and I! You can not beat the location at all. The views are so amazing that it is hard to leave the property. The pool was fabulous as well. Though there are TVs in every room, we did not turn one on in the week we stayed. The kitchen was fully equipped for our needs with grocery stores close. The bed was very comfortable and actually had great pillows. Laurie was amazing and gave us great tips as well. We will definitely be staying here again! Our new home away from home!

Pics make it look much better than it is
Overall wasn't clean, hot water only lasted enough for 2 people to shower, water pressure in showers was extremely low and barely enough to wash off with, pool was blue but very cloudy. With some maintenence the place could be much nicer.

Fabulous views and location
It would be hard to beat the fabulous views and location of this house. The large porch is where we mainly hung out because of this. Loved the vaulted beamed ceilings! This house is very close to restaurants, grocery stores, the ferry that takes you over to St John’s and beaches which is very nice. I do recommend renting a car as it would be risky walking on the narrow windy roads without sidewalks or walking paths. There are two small beaches you can walk to from the house. One has a small coral rocky shoreline that you would need to be able to swim over to the sandy beach area. The other beach you can walk to has a very narrow shoreline but is sandy. There are very few negatives to this house. The only negatives I would say are that the gardens seem a little rundown and the house is older with some wear and tear and the appliances are older. But the views more than make up for that. We found the directions to the house very hard to follow and it would be nice if there were some signs to follow. The caretakers/owner? Are very easy to get ahold of by phone but do not respond well to emails. I would definitely recommend this as a place to stay on your vacation.

Wonderful Stay
The house was as described and was a huge part of our lovely stay on island. We could not have asked for a better place to regroup and rest for all of our on island activities. Gorgeous views, plenty of parking, pool was clean, laundry worked great, no power issues. We would love to come back in the future!

Four Nights in St Thomas
Checkin could have been smoother though Denis was very nice and made himself easily available. The main part of the house is lovely with a fully furnished kitchen and ample seating and lounging. The AC worked well. The pool was clean and refreshing. So our girls could sleep closer together the parents slept in the apartment downstairs. That whole basement area wasn't what I'd had hoped for in our vacation getaway. The grounds need upkeep which bothered me I guess more than anything else. The property is large and has so much potential. This all said, the views were fantastic. Denis was fast to respond to our needs and very nice. I wish him all the best with future rentals and guests.

Perfect!
The property was in a great location and easy to get to. It was room and comfortable for the 7 of us staying there, but the most outstanding part was that view. A giant porch with the million-dollar view had us lingering over morning coffee and the best spot for afternoon drinks. It was just so relaxing.

A little slice of paradise
"If there is a heaven for me, I'm sure there is a beach attached to it." - Jimmy Buffett There are many things to say that can't be captured in a picture. At sunrise, the blue sky paints herself with gold colors and joyfully dances to the music of a morning breeze. Awoken to this song, you realize that this is not a dream. The crashing waves and white sand beaches are merely steps away from your bed. After a morning swim, you can walk into your fully furnished kitchen, whip up a quick breakfast and take in the sights of St. John, Smith bay, & Sapphire beach all from the comfort of your patio. If you're lucky, you'll catch sights of the iguanas roaming the property or a tree frog stopping by to say hello. Everything that we needed was provided. Everything we didn't know we needed, was there for us to use. Dennis was charming and happy to tell us all about the island and what to do while we were here. He was our personal guide in this tropical adventure. I was never too far from home staying here, because this estate was just as safe and comforting.

Just what we needed
This was a great property to stay during our first visit to the Virgin Islands. Only one storm occurred, and that was the first night we were there. The outside porch is so protected, I slept out there during the storm. My sons got a kick out of the fruit growing all over the property and sampled some of the ripe ones. Both my sons want to move to the Virgin Islands now, and one wants to attend the University of Virgin Islands for Marine Biology, so I'm expecting we will be back!

Heaven by the Sea
Just returned from a wonderful stay at the Sea Sound Villa. Could not have envisioned a more perfect spot both in terms of the gorgeous views on three sides of the house and in terms of proximity to the beaches and Red Hook. The pool was a refreshing end to a day at the beach and perfect for an evening dip. The kitchen was clean with all needed amenities with dishes, utensils and cookware in very good condition. Denis and Laurie were wonderful, gracious hosts, responding to questions beforehand and a few needs promptly. I would recommend maybe updating the furniture by the pool and the lounge chairs at the far end of the house.

Fabulous!
We stayed for a week at Christmas and absolutely loved our time here! The views are amazing - we enjoyed having breakfast and coffee on the front porch overlooking the other islands. And it so convenient to Red Hook and the ferry. We spent several days in St John, and when we got back from the ferry, our house was just a few miles up the road. We did walk to Pelican Beach one time but the road down is steep and there are cars that drive very fast around blind corners, so not the best for walking with children. Though, Pelican beach was very nice and it's a short walk over to Sapphire Beach Club. The house itself was very accommodating for our large group and Denis was there when we arrived and was super friendly and gave us some local tips. A rental car was very helpful. I would definitely go there again. It was one of my most favorite vacations ever!

Love it all
My fiancé actually said it was awesome. She loved it. it was worth every single cent that I paid. When you step in the front door it don't feel like you are still in St. Thomas. One my favorite part of the villa is the swimming pool as you walk in. Then you can't miss the beautiful well keep landscaping that surround the whole villa. You want to talk about a beautiful view from the front porch. It's breath taking. There is also different porch furniture for you to relax in (lounge chair, big eating table and chair to eat, and a nice big enough for 2 hammock). The inside is big and spacious. Love the island in the kitchen. What was so great about the kitchen was, there was everything that you could possible use in there. The free internet was great and fast. The A/C was a great asset. The whole villa was well keep and clean. The beds was beautifully made with decorate sheets. All the commodities of a 5 star hotel is there in the villa plus the privacy. The great part about staying there is you don't have to worry about seeing other visitors. It was a great overall experience. enjoyed every moment of it. Just wish I could of stayed longer with my family. My family loved it. Waking up to that view every morning was a great start to my days there. I would recommend any one to stay there when ever you visiting St. Thomas.

Great Views!
Our family of six just returned from a week at Sea Sound Villa. We had a great time and would love to visit this home again. The house is clean, comfortable and accurately shown in the posted photos. The owners are easy to reach and are very helpful. Outside, the views from the large wrap-around deck are fantastic! There are several lounge chairs around the pool, there is a large table that’s great for breakfast or evening cocktails and around the corner there is a big hammock for napping. Inside, there is a well equipped kitchen, a dining area, a large living room and two large bedrooms with attached bathrooms. My two teenage children slept on the large sectional sofa and were comfortable. Below the deck, there is a smaller “apartment” that is perfect for a couple. We spent several mornings on Pelican and Sapphire beaches below the house. You walk down a paved road with a short hike through the trees at the end to access the beach. The road is a bit steep in spots, but my 82 year old mother was able to make it fine. There are lots of beach chairs at house if you want to take them along. We enjoyed the homes east end location. You are only about a five minute drive to lots of restaurants, bars and shops in Red Hook. We liked that the house feels secluded, but you can grab a quick lunch or run to the grocery store without lots of driving. Thanks Laurie and Denis!

Absolutely Fabulous
Best Vacation ever said my 18y/o son, it doesn't get any better than that. This Villa has it all, pool short hike to a great beach with snorkeling, fantastic view and every amenity you can think of. Beach chairs, snorkeling equip, beach towels, coolers it was like being at a first class resort. The owners bent over backwards to make our stay the best. Recommendations were spot on, and I can't say enough about the home even band aids and iodine for an emergency. We will definitely be back.
