Vacation spot of a lifetime
Paradise Found was just that.... pure paradise! The house was so beautiful, but the views were absolutely breathtaking! Everything was clean, well stocked, and the groceries provided by the owners was such a blessing! It was so nice to get to paradise after a long day of travel, and not have to run right out and find a grocery. We spent hours in the pool, snorkeled and used the paddle board and kayaks daily. The family meals on the large veranda made memories to last a lifetime!

Extended Family Getaway
We had multiple families staying together for an extended family trip (14 ppl total). This property was perfect for us! So many spaces for gathering or relaxing (separately or together). The pool was fantastic and the views were breathtaking. It is a bit of a drive out to the property but well worth it and you get used to the roads pretty quickly. We would recommend renting a car during your stay. Lena and Bob were fantastic. Excellent communication and super responsive on any questions. I highly recommend this house for your visit to St. Thomas!

The views were awesome. It was a little further out from other properties we have stayed at in the past. This made planning other activities difficult. It took roughly 30 minutes to get back to the property from anywhere on the island. The property was well stocked and what a nice surprise to have so many groceries available to us the night we arrived. My only complaint wo uld be is that the whole property could use a good deep cleanning, Floors were very dirty as well has showers floors, h

Great stay!
We had the best time during our stay at Paradise Found! The views are unmatched and you really cannot find this anywhere else. The roads up to Peterborg are pretty narrow and winding, but we managed. I loved being so close to Magen's, which really didn't even compare to the other beaches on the island. It is so beautiful and calm and only an 8 minute drive. We would definitely stay again!

Amazing place
This property is incredible. If you stay here don't waste your time booking charters or excursions. It is absolutely beautiful. The snorkeling is some of the best I've seen. You can catch grouper and snapper 100 yards from shore. And the views are amazing. The house is laid out to provide endless spaces to congregate or be by yourself. Lena is great and so helpful. It was a wonderful vacation!

Great Stay in St. Thomas
Everything was fantastic with this property. The hosts were quick to respond if we had a question and the facilities were great. Plenty of amenities at the house if you don’t want to leave at all, but short drives to the public beach or marina. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Unbelievable views from every angle
Our family of 12 stayed here for our annual Xmas vacation. We had plenty of space on the three different levels to spread out and not feel cramped. Views are to die for! Listening to the ocean as we ate every meal out on the extra large table under the covered porch was amazing! The pool was perfect with its bench for the older generations to sit while the teens played in the deeper area. The house comes with a ton of stuff to make things easier like food essentials spices, condiments, etc. the owners give you a good amount of food to start you out so you don’t have to go immediately to the store. The ac worked fine. We had my parents who are in their 80s stay with us which i don’t think was such a great idea. The steps are a bit too much for them to get down to the pool area. The house is great nothing bad to say about it. The neighborhood it’s in is very remote though. You need a car to get anywhere which we had rented a car. If you don’t rent a car it’s expensive to get taxis all the time. Getting out of the gated neighborhood was a bit scary because it’s on a hill and you have to stop the car to enter in a code To open the gate which then requires you to punch the gas once the gate is open to get up the steep hill. We had a fantastic time!

Lena and Bob were so easy to communicate with. Very responsive. We had 9 adults and 2 littles in our group and had a fantastic time and adventures. I would definitely recommend eating at the Smokin Rooster, their food is the bomb. The house is beautiful and fully stocked. We had everything we needed. My family really enjoyed the pool.

What a great week!! This house is so suited for all ages, both inside and out. The outdoor spaces allow for groups to gather as well as quiet places to sit and read. The pool area is phenomenal. The area is quiet. Loved that paddleboards, kayaks, snorkeling gear, and pool toys were all provided. The homeowner put us in contact with a great chef and provisions provider they took care of our grocery shopping for us. Thanks Paradise Found for wonderful memories!!

Prior to arrival and throughout our stay our family group of 16 was well looked after by our hosts. The house & location were great. From dinners and meals out on the long table to snorkeling just below we all felt as if the 7 days went by so quickly. Truly a great spot and great property

Well equipped, gorgeous location
The villa has a commanding view of Megans Bay in a very quiet neighborhood. We found it to be well stocked to meet our everyday expectations but were even more please that the hosts and provisions us with enough food to get through a couple of days before shopping, including an assortment of libations with which to celebrate our arrival. Checking in and out was seamless, and although we did not need any assistance from the host, we were comfortable that it would have been readily available.

Lena and Bob are amazing. This house was as pictured. They are incredible hosts. The house was very well stocked. PLENTY of paper goods, snacks, milk, bread, etc. Tge drive to the Villa was a bit scary for this flatland TX family. Although, ALL of the roads on the island are incredibly freightening. All in all, it was a very good trip.

Magens Bay views with nature, Exotic House
The host & owner Lena was great with texting me back and was great. We really enjoyed the views, being close to the Magens Bay water and hearing the waves roll in from the decks and pool. I really looked forward to kayak and snorkel but unfortunately wasn't able to but it would be a great spot to do so! The master bedroom upstairs was the perfect spot to sit in peace watching the birds, boats, and waves. Directly across the street you can see the Atlantic and it's islands and coastline.

About the host

Hosted by Bob & Lena Marshall

Host profile image
Bob Marshall started his first business at the very young age of 13, propagating and growing nursery plants in his parents backyard. He supported himself through high school and a couple of years of college operating a small landscape construction business. At the age of 20 Bob expanded into the hot tub and spa business and after over 30 years has achieved an expert status in hot tub and spa sales and service. "Spa Bob", as some his customers call him, works 7 days a week, with the exception of 3 weeks a year when he and his wife Lena escape to different exotic locations. Evidence of this is noted in Bob's wardrobe. He will usually be seen sporting one of many T-shirts purchased during his extensive travels.

In 2014 they took their passion for exotic locations to a new level and purchased a 6 bedroom, 4-1/2 bath vacation Villa in beautiful St Thomas USVI, thus expanding their business into the vacation rental industry.

Bob's wife Lena joined him in the business in January of 2012, after retiring from 8 years as an HR and Accounting Manager. Bob and Lena's main goal is nothing less than EXCELLENT customer service and satisfaction!

Why they chose this property

Paradise Found Villa's unique architecture and unusual location is nothing less than magical! Just a short walk to Picara Point, where you will feel like you are in the middle of the sea, with nothing but water all around you. A truly wondrous location!

What makes this property unique
