About this property

Marathon: Full AC! Pool! Amazing Views!

After one evening spent on the decks of Marathon watching the incomparable Caribbean sunset and enjoying cocktails, tropical breezes and, of course, each other's company, you'll never want to vacation anywhere else. Nestled amidst vibrant tropical gardens of the exclusive Virgin Grand Estates, this three-bedroom villa is a great place to come home to, after spending the day exploring St. John.

Marathon boasts incredible views of St. Thomas and the outlying islands, just a short drive from magnificent North Shore beaches or dining, shopping, and entertainment in Cruz Bay. And for leisurely days at home, the villa offers a large pool and sundeck, a gourmet kitchen, and comfortably furnished indoor and outdoor living spaces.

Exceptional Beautiful Villa

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Marathon Villa far exceeded our expectations. As soon as you walk through the doors, the view takes your breath away. The layout of the villa is perfect. There aren't too many stairs to contend with as you move throughout the villa. The kitchen comes fully stocked with pots, pans and whatever you need to cook a meal. All 3 bedrooms are very well decorated and comfortable. We booked the villa through Catered To and also recommend them well. Abbey was a sweetheart who showed us around when we arrived. If you are not sure whether or not to book this villa, the answer is yes book it!

Perfect Villa

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Pre-stay communication was great. The villa greeter was very nice and knowledgeable. The villa itself was beyond our expectations. We had 3 adult couples and each had their own large bedroom & ensuite bathroom with exceptional views. In fact, the views from every room were fantastic. The kitchen was well appointed and had everything we needed for the week. The pool was fabulous and we lounged in it every day. I would highly recommend this villa and we would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful new house with outstanding view

This house is brand new as of Nov 2018. The owner did an outstanding job of thinking about everything! The design of the house maximizes the incredible view of Great Cruz Bay and St Thomas. The outdoor living area is fantastic! The owner thought about all of the amenities that could have been easily overlooked or taken years to assemble. There are two bedrooms upstairs, and the master bedroom is on the main floor with the kitchen, family room, outdoor living area and pool. The views are even better than what they appear in the photos online. This house is great for families!

First Rate Home in Paradise - And THE VIEWS!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Marathon villa is by far the best villa we have rented on STJ. The views of the sunset each night were beyond spectacular. The furnishings and home design are first rate. Everything is done to perfection - you feel at home and pampered all at once. It was the perfect size for our family of 4. The outside space is designed to be so enjoyable. We spent so much time just sitting out there staring at the view. The condition of the house is excellent and Catered To is super responsive to any issues you have. Finally, great location - easy to get to Cruz Bay in 7 minutes using Centerline Rd.

Fantastic Time!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A GREAT stay! Good location, fantastic view! When we .firat got there we were a little disappointed in the pool, it looked very dark and we talked about our pool the year before being so bright and clear. After Mike, the pool person came a week later and treated it, the water color became much clearer. That was the only time we saw him and we question if he came back, because it never looked like it had been vacuumed. we kept it skimmed as best we could. That was the only negative, and a very small one!!! Everything else was fantastic! Mike, the maintenance person was super and fun to talk to! Thanks for everything!!!

We will book Marathon Villa again if it is available. If I were building a vacation home I would hire the designer. The house is so well laid out, well equipped, comfortable and relaxing.

Marathon Villa is an Absolute Dream!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our 4th time to visit St. John as a family and our 4th house to rent. All the properties before were lovely but Marathon Villa blew our socks off! The pictures do not begin to do this beautiful home justice. When we opened the doors to enter the deck, it took our breath away. The views are absolutely stunning from sun up to sun down. The pool was perfect. The outdoor furniture provided the perfect place for sunbathing or a nap. We loved the outdoor living room and spent most evenings outside. The owners of this property thought of everything! Linens and amenities were top notch. We were lacking in nothing. The kitchen was a dream. The Master Suite was perfect for me and my husband, spacious and so comfortable. Our teenagers had their own "suites" and loved the privacy. I could go on and on about how perfect this house is. Catered To was fantastic to work with and helped answer any questions we had. The Villa was so clean and ready for our arrival. Fantastic group! St. John has changed over the years but the people have stayed the same. We have never had anything but a wonderful experience here. We will return, and when we do it will be to Marathon Villa.
