About this property

CalypsoBlu: Updated 3 bedroom villa - pool, near beach with ocean view.

CalypsoBlu boasts contemporary Caribbean design, hotel quality amenities, large pool and nearby beaches. With a lovely Caribbean Sea view 100 feet above the beach on an acre of private land, this fully-air-conditioned three-bedroom private villa is located in a secluded area only five miles from the airport and three miles from downtown St. Thomas on the island's sunny south side with sunset views.

CalypsoBlu has updated living/dining room furnishings and a modern well-equipped kitchen with state-of-the-art appliances. Internet connected HDTVs and HD cable service are also provided in all rooms. High speed WiFi is provided throughout the villa and on its decks at the island's top speed, suitable for video streaming. Sliding glass doors with screens open all around the living/dining area so you can enjoy the sights, sounds and tropical breezes even when inside.

Spend a day around the pool (5’ deep throughout and 25’L X 11’W), enjoying lunch prepared on the gas grill. Nap while listening to the sounds of the Caribbean Sea lapping at the shore. Marvel as the cruise ships pass close by entering the islands main port.

All three bedrooms enjoy a private tiled bath, reading area, HDTV and Wi-Fi. Luxury bed and bath linens are provided. All three bedrooms have private entrances onto the pool deck. Bedrooms 1 and 3 have desks/tables with chairs suitable for working, as does the main living area.

CalypsoBlu is approximately 2,300 square feet indoors with an additional 1,200 square feet of deck/veranda space outdoors, much of it covered. A fully automatic backup power generator and water filtration system ensure your ultimate comfort. The villa is rented to one group at a time and is never shared. The villa is unfortunately not wheel chair friendly with several steps between living area and bedrooms. The villa is also not suitable for younger children as all bedrooms have direct pool access.

CalypsoBlu is managed by an on-island company, providing you with access to a concierge who can arrange anything from an in-Villa massage or chef, to a private yacht charter or the assistance of dedicated 24/7 maintenance personnel.

Best Family Vacation Ever!
The house was perfect for our family of four with two adult kids. The view was even more spectacular in person. Very clean and stocked with everything we needed. Great location, convenient to everything with a sense of being remotely located. Walking to the beach was a challenge, but was a fun adventure. The only cons were very low water pressure in the showers especially the lower room. And the upper room AC could not keep up with the heat while we were there. Overall we loved it and plan on coming back.

Another week in paradise
March 5-12, 2024. My husband and I and our 2 grown children loved our stay at the Calypso Blu! This is not our first visit to the island. The villa is just as described and we were all impressed with the cleanliness of the home! All bedrooms/baths are separate from the main living area by the pool area and lanai so we all had our private place to chill. The bed linens were comfy, the kitchen fully stocked with all utensils and some spices and seasonings. We all enjoyed the saltwater pool and then there is the view! One of the best on the island! Justin is an excellent host-very responsive to text and email and the location is so great-close to snorkeling, excursions, dining and shopping! Beautiful sunrises and sunsets, watching the cruise ships sail in and out from the pool deck. We recommend a jeep or 4 wheel drive as the villa sits at the end of a steep road-very private with beautiful plantings and again there is always the view! We will hopefully return! We highly recommend this villa!

Anniversary paradise
My husband and I spent 8 days here for our anniversary. The house was perfect. The views were amazing! The kitchen was very well stocked for cooking meals. We were very centrally located. Which made driving easy. The views from the bedrooms were beautiful. The sun set was beautiful from the balcony every night. We will definitely stay in this villa again. And loved the pool and privacy!! #25yearsofchasingsunsetstogether

Slice of paradise
We loved staying at CalypsoBlu. The property is very clean, the view is spectacular, the pool was certainly our favorite part about the property. Communication with Justin and the management team was great. He even gave us a contact # for a taxi guy since we were 5 hrs delayed arriving and couldn’t pick up our rental car after hours, which was probably best case scenario as “learning” to drive on the left in the dark on the narrow road leading to the property was probably not going to be a good idea. Only nuisance were the mosquitoes in the kitchen/living space so bring some repellents (there were some sprays and a couple of things at the property available). Great location to go exploring and close enough to the car ferry that goes to St. John. Strongly recommend to rent a car - many suggest a Jeep, but we had a mini van and it got the job done just fine. We liked that the bedrooms were separate and not connected to the main living area so our baby was able to take her naps and the early birds were able to get coffee in the kitchen without having to tip toe and whisper. We loved our stay and would certainly come back again. Thank you for hosting us at your gorgeous property.

Nice but…
Wi-Fi was only available in the main living space. Bedrooms were unable to connect to Wi-Fi. All bedrooms being disconnected from the main living area/kitchen was not ideal. Well stocked kitchen. Needs new kitchen chairs. Pool was fabulous! Well stocked with sunscreen and floats for pool. Outdoor living space needs a TV.

Central location to all things VI!
The house was as described and ready for our arrival. Our only negative were the 2 primary en-suites were on the same side of the house (upper & lower). It didn't deter our enjoyment & we had a great week regardless. Kitchen was well equipped with the essentials & we had everything we needed for the week. Pool was chilly but comfortable & offered relaxation on our lazy 'home' days. Central location kept us close to both ends of the islands & we took the car ferry to St. John several times. Great hiking on both islands once you are off the beaten path. Check out Lanai Restaurant which is just around the corner from the house & beachfront, we ate there several times! Great communication from hosts/staff before, during & after our stay.

Villa with beautiful view
Beautiful villa and pool overlooking Morningstar Beach! The road getting in was a bit scary so we chose to be home before dark but that was enjoyable as we watched the sunset from the pool each night. Overall, a great place to stay! My only minor complaint was that on two separate occasions I emailed Justin at the management company and did not receive a response from either.

We found the home in a great central location of the island so that any day trip was within 20 minutes or less. It’s a great layout for a group of couples since all bedrooms have their own entrance separate from the main living area.

Amazing property- book with confidence!!
From beginning to end, our stay was everything we hoped for. Property was clean and updated and our group had plenty of room inside and out on the pool deck/ balcony's. Everything works as it should and kitchen was very well stocked with all the basics...it made everything so much easier! When speaking with Justin the host, he was very prompt to reply, friendly and welcoming. Exactly what you want in a host! I would have no concerns booking this property again, we really had a blast and enjoyed it's quiet location and absolutely stunting views. The pictures in the listing are accurate...it really is that nice. If you like what you see in the listing, you will love this property!

Fantastic southside home in St Thomas
Our family of 5 spent a week at this house. It is as gorgeous as the pictures suggest! The home is fully equipped and very comfortable with stunning views. It was perfectly situated for our needs - Charlotte Amalie is only 15 minutes away as is the Red Hook area. The location is also very private - the last 1/4 mile or so of the access road is unpaved but should be no problem for a 4x4. Justin and his team were easily reachable and responsive to any questions. There is no beach access within walking distance - Morningstar beach is currently closed- but Limetree beach is a very short drive away (5 mins). We also spent an afternoon at Abi beach which is accessible via a dirt road very close to CalypsoBlu. There used to be a beach shack at one end which has been abandoned along with picnic tables and beach chairs. We had the beach to ourselves - worth a visit if you don't mind the rough drive.

Amazing views!
Our group of 6 adults was very please with the property. A little hard to get to the first night but once we got the hang of using GPS ordinance it was easier to get to the house. There are some houses being built within close proximity of the vacation home so be aware of possible construction noise but the workers are gone by 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm. There are a lot of stairs around the pool deck and breezeway areas. Be careful if the drinks are flowing! The house is located perfectly to gain quick access to Charlotte Amalie and Red Hook. We would recommend this property for 6 adults.

Unbeatable view and excellent location
CalypsoBlu is an amazing villa with an unbeatable view. It is centrally located between Charlotte Amalie and Red Hook. It is secluded so you have a lot of privacy. It was very clean and spacious and had everything we needed and more. It is well decorated, and the kitchen was larger than it looked in the photos. The 3 bedrooms all have their separate entrances and are not connected to each other or the main living area. That allowed a lot of privacy, and my tween/teen boys loved it, feeling like they had their own apartments. It made this momma a little nervous at first but I got used to it. The pool was great and bigger than we expected. We had a couple of maintenance related issues with the pool and AC in the 2nd master, but Justin was very responsive and had them both addressed. Neither of them impacted the satisfaction of our stay. The sliding door to the main living area is broken and doesn’t shut all the way, nor lock. We just kept the screen door closed to prevent bugs from coming in, and the opening was small enough that it didn’t impact the temperature in the living area. It was more a nuisance than anything. This was a great property with excellent service, and we’d highly recommend it and would stay here again!

Amazing...until Justin, Owner of Prestige
Despite the terrible exchange with owner, Justin, of Prestige, I loved my overall experience at CalypsoBlu on the island of St. Thomas. My initial impression of the property was ultimate paradise. It was a trip for my family (2 adults, an 8yr old, 17, 19 & 23 yr old. Loved the privacy. Definitely great for couples/adults. Enjoyed late nights in the pool, sitting on the deck enjoying the sun & the ocean breeze. Very nicely decorated. Woke up to roosters and crashing waves...Breathtaking. Due to rental shortages, we didn't have a car. Probably for the best, the road to the property was quite adventurous. Used a private driver, Rayan Taxi, AMAZING! Great customer service & hospitality. Will definitely use again. Downside, Justin was extremely rude, condescending & dismissive to concerns we had with the property. We spoke on Day 2. Complimented him on how beautiful the property was and asked if he could take care of the few things we had issues with. He NEVER followed up. Supposedly he sent someone to the property while we were gone the day before we checked out. (Day 5-little too late) Before that he advised that he sent someone to spray for mosquitoes as a "bonus". (Bonus???- And what about everything else) He told my partner that he knew when he "saw us" that we would be looking for some kind of refund. (what do those type of people look like??) NEVER, EVER mentioned money to anyone before my complaint was submitted. Only asked that he take care of our concerns. Day 2 advised: beer can and playing cards in pool. Food, more cards & used face mask on the deck. More playing cards, bug spray can in the gated areas on the deck. Sliding glass doors to the common area did not close completely, nor would it lock. Screen doors not operable. Windows did not completely close. Sounds like a lot, but I really, truly just wanted to enjoy my vaca & just wanted effort from him. Justin continued to text me to make it clear that there was no one above him, because he was the owner. He also wanted us to be aware that he has a lot of friends that don't look like him. (wonder what that's supposed to mean??) I have many text messages from Justin and many, many pictures of prop. Still waiting for resolution from VRBO & to hear from the host. Hope to have this resolved soon. Again, amazing property. Horrible prop management. Prestige fooled me w/ the great c/s before arriving. They totally dropped the ball during our stay. I hope the owner considers new management.

Getting away from the Winter
Views were spectacular. Centrally located near Charlotte Amalie and just a 15-20 minute drive to Red Hook and Megan's Bay. Renting a car is a must. Property was well appointed, we cooked several meals at home, kitchen had everything you would need, each room had a private bath, having the pool was Definitely a plus.

About the host

Hosted by David J. Martin

Host profile image
When we first visited St. Thomas in 2001 we knew we had to come back. After several years of vacations in many a tropic climate, we chose sunny St. Thomas, the capital city of America's Caribbean. For a family from Chicago, the Virgin Islands are ideal.

Why they chose this property

We considered many properties when selecting a vacation home. But when we saw CalypsoBlu, with her Caribbean design and open floorplan, we knew she was the house for us. With large sliding doors and windows everywhere, even inside the villa we feel we are outside, which is what we want when we visit the island. While we've updated the villa since our purchase, we've kept it Caribbean charm while adding a wide-range of amenities.

What makes this property unique
