Far Niente is a beautifully appointed new, clean, and very well kept three bedroom villa in Point Rendezvous with an infinity edge pool.
Three spacious bedrooms are all accessed from the interior of the house and, the lower level even has it's own kitchenette and lounging area/TV room making this a perfect property for families and couples. It's location provides peace and quiet and a great view, all 10 minutes from Cruz Bay.
Island Information:
Blessed with an eternal summer, (daily average of 83 degrees) guests can enjoy the island and its enchanting shores year round! St. John is surrounded with white sandy beaches, especially within the Virgin Islands National Park boundaries on the north shore.
Our small island is only 9 miles by 4 miles and has fewer than 5,000 residents, yet is rugged and diverse. St. John is located conveniently just 3 miles away from St. Thomas in the US Virgin Islands and the same distance from Tortola in the British Virgin Islands.
Area Description-Rendezvous Bay to Reef Bay:
The Rendezvous Bay area begins east of Chocolate Hole and is a 10-minute drive from the Cruz Bay ferry dock. It continues across Fish Bay and beyond, to remote Reef Bay.
The VI National Park borders this entire region from the north and the east. Hillside vacation villas dot the landscape, with gorgeous views of quiet bays and manicured gardens.

Year Purchased: 2009
Why the Owner Chose Rendezvous Bay
We bought Far Niente for the features that we had looked for as renters ourselves: a beautiful contemporary house with lush landscaping, a pool, air conditioning, privacy, peace and quiet, paved roads all the way from town, and close to town.
The Unique Benefits of this Villa
Far Niente is quiet and peaceful. We enjoy watching the pelicans divebomb the water in front of the villa from our deck during cocktail hour. They are very entertaining!

John W's comments about Far Niente: Far Niente was a wonderful rejuvenation for our family. This is a beautiful modern villa with nice views of Fish Bay, a beautiful infinity edge pool, and air conditioning throughout, which was important for my wife and daughter who have allergies. We loved our stay and would stay there again!

Marvie T's comments about Far Niente: The house was great for our family with lots of space for everyone. Enough privacy for the kids. Everything was very clean. The property manager was fantastic, even went back to the house after we had left and retrieved a lost necklace for us. Great vacation!

Janet D's comments about Far Niente: We stayed at Far Niente for a week in March and we did not want to leave! The villa is modern, very clean, and well kept. We enjoyed being so close to Cruz Bay, yet with very quiet, private, and peaceful surroundings. The pool deck and views are fantastic. Our family will be back!
