Keywords: Romantic St. John Virgin Islands Vacation Rental Villa with Private Pool & Spectacular Views over the Caribbean, Eco friendly, Solar Powered, Perfect for Honeymooners and Couples.
Sun Moon & Stars Villa, named for the amazing sun and moon rises that are viewed over the neighboring islands and the stars that shine overhead, will delight couples seeking a lover’s hideaway.
This charming eco-friendly villa commands a fantastic view of St. John's pristine East End and the many British Virgin islands and cays beyond, all dramatically staged against the vast blue backdrop of ocean and sky.
Sun, Moon & Stars Villa is a one-bedroom home just perfect for couples. Built all on one level for easy access, this villa offers a well-equipped kitchen and a spacious dining and living area with a cathedral ceiling, and an air-conditioned queen bedroom. Our home is powered by sustainable solar energy (with public utility backup) to virtually eliminate our impact on the environment and help preserve the natural beauty of St John.
French doors open from the living and dining areas to a wide covered verandah which overlooks that unparalleled sea view and catches the cool island tradewinds. On one side is the secluded swimming pool and sun deck in a lovely tropical garden setting. Relaxation and a good meal for two go together, so the wide covered verandah is furnished with a cushioned sofa and a table and chairs for alfresco dining; it's shaded and cool by day and frames the sky at night for romantic stargazing.
Sun, Moon & Stars Villa is located high on a hill above Calabash Boom, reached by a winding country road, so the elevation and the balmy breezes usually keep the temperature at this property very comfortable, and provide the incredible views you'll always remember. Behind you is National Park land.
Sun, Moon & Stars Villa is located on the quiet side of St. John, but Coral Bay's bars, restaurants and small shops are just a couple minutes' drive down the road. You can rent small boats and snorkel gear at Crabby's, pick up some groceries at Lily's Gourmet Grocery (or ask us to arrange to have your groceries purchased and delivered to your villa just before your arrival - what luxury!), enjoy a casual meal at Skinny Legs, Donkey Diner, Aqua Bistro or Sweet Plantains, and try Shipwreck Landing for dinner and live music once a week. The Ram's Head trailhead is just a few minutes' drive from Sun, Moon & Stars Villa should you feel like hiking to some of the best views in the Caribbean.
Beautifully furnished in comfortable island style, this lovely and private villa is cozy, welcoming and provides the perfect vacation spot for couples young and old.
Four wheel drive vehicle required.

Sun, Moon & Stars Villa - Romantic W/ Spectacular Views & Pool
Year Purchased: 2010
Why the Owner Chose Coral Bay
It seems like yesterday that we were planning our first trip together as a new couple. We had never been to the USVI and St John seemed to have everything we could have asked for in our first vacation together. We traveled with the promise of peacefulness, natural beauty and adventure. We experienced all of this and much more. It was on this trip that we fell in love with the island as well as with each other. We vowed to return and when we did four years later, it was to exchange vows on Cinnamon Bay Beach at sunset. Now, after more than 10 years have passed from our initial visit, we have pulled together our resources and made the plunge into island homeownership by purchasing Sun, Moon & Stars. The villa has everything we were looking for in a vacation home and are very excited about the opportunity to share our new home with you.
The Unique Benefits at this Villa
Amazing panoramic views 800 feet up, cooling tradewinds that help keep the villa bug free and the National Park located just out the door bordering the property.

Sun, Moon & Stars was wonderful! We did not see the spectacular view until we woke up the next morning. We were still so sleepy after travelling, but couldn't fall back asleep because we knew what we would be missing. Bonny had told us about it the night before, but you can't really appreciate it until you see it with your own eyes! Bonny was wonderful meeting us to take us to this amazing villa...thank you so much for sharing your house with us! This vacation will stay forever in our memories..

We have been looking forward to visiting St. John for years and we finally made it happen in December 2011. After emailing with interest in SMS, Carrie got back to us very quickly and answered all of our questions. We had a great week and loved lounging around the house, relaxing on the deck and heading out to the local beaches. The road to the house is steep but fine in a 4x4. There are a good variety of restaurants in Coral Bay and you can pick up your snorkeling gear at Crabbys just down the street. This side of the island is quiet and no nightlife but this is what we were looking for on our vacation. We would recommend SMS to anyone that wants a quiet relaxing villa with an amazing view! The description and pictures provided by the owner are spot on... so you can rent with confidence.

This was our second stay on Calabash Boom, our first at Sun, Moon and Stars and everything went better than we could have hoped. Carrie made our booking simple and offered a good recommendation for Jeep rental. When we arrived Bonny gave us a warm welcome and made sure we knew about the best restaurants and shops to make our vacation perfect... We are already looking forward to returning - the sooner the better!

Wow is the word that we said every morning. We had been planning this trip for seven years and it far surpassed anything we could imagine. This was even better than our honeymoon. We celebrated our 12th anniversary and New Years. We needed to recharge and this is the ultimate place. Every need was thought of - thank you Bonny, Carrie and Chris for sharing your piece of heaven with us! We leave Sun, Moon and Stars with our spirits and souls renewed. We will be back!

That View Just Never Grows Old

After visiting the Virgin Islands on various cruises, we decided to take a chance and stay on the island that intrigued us so, and what a treat this has been! That view just never grows old from this little piece of heaven called Sun, Moon and Stars. Thank you for sharing your lovely home that is so nicely furnished (with a special thanks for having an umbrella for those of us with sensitive skin). We snorkeled at Little Lamesur, Salt Pond, Francis and Brown Bay - all unique in what they had to offer. We ate at miss Lucy's for both lunch and dinner - everything was very fresh - and enjoyed our snack at the Tourist Trap - yes it is really worth the time. Shipwreck Landing was good, also. Mostly, we enjoyed time away from the hustle and bustle. And did we mention that the view just never grows old??? We would love to return!

Well we certainly didn't expect for our first trip to St John to include rain every day, nasty locals (including Bonny!) and tons of mosquitoes....well that is nowhere close to what we experienced! Bonny is the hostess with the mostess and every moment and day here on this beautiful island has been so fantastic and memorable. We could have easily stayed right here on the deck of SMS every day, but we wanted to take advantage of everything that is offered. We started our trip off with our commitment ceremony on Hawksnest Beach with friends and family and then proceeded to do as much as we possibly could! Had a great time on our day trip to BVI! Went to the Baths, snorkeling and of course Soggy Dollar bar. Good times! Best spots to snorkel for us : Salt Pond, Waterlemon (tons of big starfish) and Leinster (3 sea turtles and a shark!) I mean really, you can't go wrong anywhere because it's all so gorgeous, but those were probably our best 3 that we checked out from St John. Restaurants here on Coral Bay were great as well! Miss Lucy's was surprisingly great because it seemed like a little hole in the wall type of place, but ended up being excellent! Should have known. Couldn't keep up with all the happy hour specials going on all over the island. I tried, but couldn't hang and even paid the price! Spent Thanksgiving in Cruz Bay hopping around to a number of places, but ended up at High Tide right beside the ferry dock. Owned by some fellow North Carolinians, holla! Great food, good chill atmosphere with great people. All in all a spectacular week! Thank you so much Bonny for your hospitality and super friendliness and thank you Carrie and Chris for allowing us the pleasure to stay in your beautiful villa! This is truly a piece of heaven! We will be back!

Review Submitted: 11/07/11
This was our first trip to St John. The view from the deck each morning took our breath away - much like the car ride up and down the hill! Ting complains of whiplash but giggles madly at the goats and donkeys we sail by. Even two days of stormy skies could not spoil the magic of St John or SMS. We visited at least one new beach every day, though found a strong favorite in the calm beauty of Francis Bay. The ten days between being so warmly greeted on the dock by Bonny to sadly packing our bags tonight flew faster than we'd though possible. Next time we'll make it a month! Until then!

This is our 5th time to St John and we had, as usual, another wonderful vacation. We celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary on 9/19 and are so glad we chose to come back. This home is wonderful and the views are breathtakingly beautiful. As always, we leave our hearts on St John and look forward to cming back again...soon. We truly love this island ...it is a slice of heaven on earth. Until next time...

We've had a truly wonderful week here - relaxing, letting go and enjoying the "simple life". Snorkeling at Waterlemon and Trunk Bay were terrific. Hiking the Reef Bay Trail was arduous, but worth it. Thank you for sharing your special home with us Carrie. And thank you Bonny for providing such a generous warm-hearted introduction to the home and area. We've richly enjoyed our time here and hope to return to this special place. Sun moon & Stars is an aptly named piece of paradise.

There is a mountain that we all climb in life, as well as, an ocean we all must swim. The view at the end of each journey fortifies the soul and brings a feeling of content and well-being among nature's and God's finest gifts. The vision of creation begins in a place like Sun, Moon & Stars...the power of natural beauty abounds here...the endless possibilities of love engage here...this home ignites everlasting joy! Thank you Carrie and Bonny. Till next time, Love Gary and Kay
