Location: Cruz Bay, USVI - St. John, Caribbean (5-min walk to Cruz Bay Town & Ferry; 10-min drive to Beaches) View Map

Accommodations:  House, 2 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 2 Baths (Sleeps 4-6)

From the moment you enter the front door, crossing the tan, tile floor, noting the modern kitchen and generous dining table, through the French doors onto the tiled pool deck and plopping down on a padded, cushioned, pool chair, kicking off your sandals or popping right into the gorgeous pool, you will feel glad you made the right choice for your time in the tropics.

Whether lounging under the Caribbean sun and the blue sky punctuated by fluffy, cottony clouds, paddling around in the deepest pool on Saint John, or lolling, half underwater on the huge steps in its near corner, you will appreciate the quiet, secluded privacy of your own little 'peace o' heaven.'

The large dining table and cushioned chairs out on the pool deck invite your party to dine outdoors on your own creation just off the gas grill barbecue followed by gazing at a flamboyant sunset from the porch swing.

After sunset, watch as Saint Thomas comes to life like a pulsing gem of light against the black velvety background under the moon and stars.

Inside, the cross ventilation through the doors and shutter windows invite the 200-foot-high hillside breezes aided and abetted by the floor and ceiling fans, promise cool restful sleep, and the imported, 8500 BTU air-conditioning units are almost never turned on.

Well-stocked super marts, shopping, and nightlife abound in close vicinity and the locals are as sweet as sugar. (say "Hello!" first, and enjoy big smiles in return) Imagine yourself in the various scenes shown here, then phone us to reserve your favorite week(s) to realize a memorable dream in your own little PEACE O' HEAVEN.

  • Wow - what a way to spend our honeymoon! Peace 'o Heaven was the perfect respite after months of planning and weeks of celebrating. We loved sitting by the pool and watching the boats come in and out of the bays, grilling out on the back deck, the ease of getting in and out of town for quick visits to the markets and, of course, snorkeling at the myriad of beautiful beaches. Peace 'o Heaven is perfectly stocked with everything you need for a relaxing visit on St. John. We've been to St. John 2x now, and we'll definitely return!
    
    Homeowner Response:
    Dear Meg & Andy: Thanks for your "glowing report"-you definitely have a way with words! We wish you much happiness in your future life together and hope you will return to Peace O' Heaven many times to revisit your wonderful memories!

  • We had a fantastic time in St John! Peace O Heaven villa came fully loaded with everything you could possibly need for a perfect relaxing vacation. The views from the villa are absolutely gorgeous and the pool was so refreshing to come back to after a day out snorkeling on so many beautiful beaches. Thank you Ruthellenn and Captain Magic for all you did to make our trip to St John a special vacation our family will always treasure!
    
    Homeowner Response:
    Dear Wolfling Family: Thank you for your "glowing report". We were happy to oblige and very glad to have contributed to the joyful celebration of your milestone 25th Anniversary! (The only thing left for you to do is book your return visit so that you can show your daughter what she missed!) Ruthellen & Captain Magic

  • Our first stay at Peace O Heaven was perfect! The house was comfortable and layed out beautifully. We loved the pool, the view, and the iguanas. Our days were filled with snorkeling, relaxing, eating and exploring the island. Be sure to go to Compass Rose Restaurant where you can eat a good meal and play putt-putt golf. We hope to be back soon. Debbie, Dave, Stephanie, Jason and Brad

    Thank you so much Ruthellen and Captain Magic! We truly enjoyed our stay at your Peace O' Heaven. The views from the house and pool deck were almost enough just to keep us here. We were lucky to tear ourselves away and visit your beautiful island with its many gorgeous beachs and bays for the fun and the sun and some stellar snorkeling. For future visitors- try Trunk, Maho, Cinnamon, Hawk's Nest and Honeymoon Bays for the prettiest beaches. If you get an opportunity to visit with your gracious owners, do not pass it up. They are a true treat to be around! Thank you for a memorable family vacation-we're planning our return! All our love, The T. family.

  • We stayed at Peace of Heaven for our honeymoon and loved it. Very private, great location close enough to town but yet far enough where it was very quiet. My wife and I had a very hard time leaving and can't wait to go back on our anniversary next year The host's of this villa were really great, good job Ruthellen and Andrew

    My family loved our first visit to Peace o' Heaven so much that we booked our next trip before we left for home. No "ifs, ands or buts" our first visit merited a second! I understand that we were the first visitors to book our stay though the web site. We are glad that we found "Peace o' Heaven" among all the properties from which we had to choose. Thanks for the wonderful time.

    Another memorable vacation. Everyone has a dream, and you have yours right here. The house was more than expected, it cannot be described, it has to be experienced. Hate to leave...but as Arnold once said,"I'LL BE BACK" So will we. Bob & Miriam [J.], Queens, NY Ed & Louise [M.], W. Nyack, NY
