About this property

Drake's Lookout - Hilltop villa with breathtaking, views!

Drake's Lookout is perched high on a hillside overlooking picturesque Coral Bay and beyond through the British Virgin Islands.

This very lovely three bedroom, three and a half bath island home has everything you need to make your vacation fabulous. The spacious decks offer views that range north to Tortola, and East through Drakes passage down the emerald chain of islands know as the British Virgins. Virgin Gorda, forty miles to the East, is clearly visible on the horizon. Or watch the sailboats come and go from colorful Coral Bay, 600 feet below .

The home itself is gracious and comfortable, with overstuffed furniture and rich accents of wicker and rattan, much of it by tropical designer Tommy Bahama. Dine in doors or al fresco, depending on your mood and the tradewinds. The well equipped kitchen has an open design, so your chef can continue conversation while cooking an island feast.

The great room is cozy and bright and opens opens out onto a covered gallery so you can enjoy the view without the sun. If sun-tanning is a priority, or bask in sunlit privacy on the pool decks and refresh yourself in the sparkling dip pool.

In the evening retreat to the master cottage which features a king size bed or to either of the main house suites both with mahogany 4 poster queen size beds. The bedrooms, and the whole house, are accented with island artwork and whimsical touches, making this beautiful island home feel like yours, if only for the week.

Drakes Lookout is sure to charm you with her views, privacy and comfort, whether your goal is to explore the island from one end to another, or retreat from outside world. This is a home that offers it all and at a very affordable price!

Destination St. John, your on island hosts, even greet you at the ferry landing and whisk you off to your hideaway, making your arrival pleasant and hassle free. At your service 24 hours a day, allowing for a worry free stay. Whether for a romantic rendezvous or a well deserved family vacation.

Drakes Lookout is a non-smoking villa.

Exactly as Advertised, Stunning
Drake’s Lookout is as stunning as the pictures show. A wonderful home, great for 3 couples, a beautiful respite on St. John. Destination St John were great hosts. Very attentive, took us directly to the house when we landed, and provided great resources and info for navigating the island. We all 100% recommend booking Drake’s lookout with Destination St. John.

40th Birthday in Paradise
We stayed at Drake's Lookout in November and had an amazing time. The trip was a celebration of my sister's 40th birthday so my wife and I were traveling with her family. This property was perfect for us. The separate guest house gave us just the right amount of privacy. The house itself is beautiful, the deck had a light breeze the entire week which kept the mosquitoes away. and the views were out-of-this-world!!!

You cant beat the views!
Property was great! Clean, well equipped and stunning views. It was practically perfect for our group. The only thing that was different than anticipated (but not bad) was that the master suite is in separate suite than 2 other rooms. I didn't realize it when I booked and would have liked to have been together but it was nbd. Just mentioning it so it’s clear to anyone else like us. Pool (not heated) and deck were great. Played lots of games and this place lent itself well to our group. BRING BUG SPRAY!! Not just for here but the island in general. We’ll be back!

Wonderful villa
The description and photo's of this villa don't do it justice. It is perched high above Coral Bay and the views are just amazing. It was very nice to have the master bedroom in a separate building. The second bedroom is very nice but the 3rd bedroom doesn't have a view if that is important to you. The villa is very clean and has everything you need to prepare your meals, although the restaurant at the bottom of the hill is very good and we ended up eating there quite a bit. Destination St. John was easy to work with and our greeter did a great job of getting us settled. We also enjoyed the basket of snacks left in the fridge. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this property at all!

Beautiful hilltop villa with amazing views
Wonderful villa, with plenty of amenities. It's sits high above Coral Bay on very tropical & lush property. The views of the east end & BVIs are amazing. The staff at Destination St. John were very nice, accommodating, and quick to respond to our (literally) last minute request. They had the villa cleaned & ready the next day, with a staff member ready to meet us & show us to the villa...they even put a very nice welcome basket of food/snacks in the refrigerator. Another villa rental company sent me a rude email saying they were too busy to schedule a cleaning service...I'm so glad we stayed with DSJ...Great service!...I plan to use them exclusively in the future.
