Overview

Areca Peter Bay is named after the areca palm that produces seeds traditionally thought to have a calming effect when chewed. But you won't need to risk this traditional remedy for stress. Areca Peter Bay's privacy, its incredible 180 degree views of the Caribbean from St Thomas to Tortola and the many cays and small islands in between, its professional tropical landscaping, extensive outdoor living spaces and air conditioned interior luxury will calm even the most jangled nerves.
The villa is located in exclusive Upper Peter Bay and nestled between famous Trunk and Cinnamon Bay beaches. Areca villa guests have access to private Peter Bay beach, which is a few minutes drive or hillside walk down the private paved road. Parking is provided at the head of the beach walk.
The villa is unique in that it is situated on over 1 acre and is bordered by National Park to the east, and to the west, a long, gated, expertly landscaped drive provides complete privacy as well. It is truly a special and unique spot for your Caribbean dream vacation.
All five en suite king bedrooms can be rented together, or the Main House (3 bedrooms, 3.5 baths) can be rented alone. The Guest House is never rented separately from the Main House, so every group is assured of complete privacy and exclusive use of all exterior spaces.

About Diana Hall
My husband and I completed construction on our Peter Bay Villa in 2009. This photo was taken early on during construction. My husband's law practice is on St Thomas where we live. I manage the villa--greeting each group of guests and orienting them to the villa and the area and continuing to be available throughout your stay if the need arises.
Diana Hall purchased this villa in 2009
Why Diana Hall chose USVI/St. John
My husband and I built the villa on property in Peter Bay that has been in his family for several generations. We felt very blessed to have such a lovely spot to build on and put a lot of personal energy and creativity into building the home. We currently live on St Thomas but will eventually retire to St John.
What makes this villa unique
The outdoor living in such an incredible location coupled with all the indoor comforts make staying here peaceful and relaxing. Between the architecture, the landscaping, and the view, you never run out of beautiful things to look at. And the north shore beaches are minutes away!

Reviews
VRBO Bear stayed here
Jun 2, 2011This little bear just had the experience of a lifetime! If you come to grab a taste of the Caribbean, look no further. From the amazing views to the amazing tranquil atmosphere of this property, Areca Peter Bay takes the cake! A long winding driveway reveals a beautiful private gate welcoming you to your home away from home. All the amenities were exquisitely maintained and the surrounding landscape was crafted with the utmost expertise, including lush tropical plants and fruits ripe for the picking at every glance. A true kaleidoscope of color! The beautiful infinity pool was a great place to spend time at sunrise or sunset and was often frequented. Truthfully the view was spectacular from anywhere on the property! Most nights were spent on the magnificent patio area, poolside, with the BBQ grill smoking and the gentle bay breezes blowing, creating the most relaxing evenings. The local town, shopping and white sandy beaches were mere minutes away and the local residents were always welcoming. The cleaning crews that came during the week were cheery and very hospitable. Not to mention the owner, Diana was extremely helpful, available for anything at anytime and was a real treat! She pointed out key places to dive, kayak and snorkel near the area and they did not disappoint. This little bear will be returning again and again and you should do the same! The VRBO Bear
Exceptional!

Amazing View
We just got back from staying at the Areca last week. There was 7 of us and we had an amazing time. We love staying on St John and the view the Areca villa provided made it even better! The villa itself is very well maintained and we love eating outside on the large table. Great place to take the family!
Absolute Paradise!
We have been renting homes for our family vacation to the USVi for the last 9 years. Areca is the best home so far! Absolutely beautiful, very comfortable, and all the amenities you could ever want. The only thing that needs to be corrected is the pool light. It would have been nice to swim at night in an illuminated pool looking at that amazing view. Thank you Diane for your hospitality!!!
Another Awesome Stay at Areca Villa
This is our 4th time staying at Areca and once again surpassed our expectations. The house is beautiful with a pool that you can enjoy anytime of the day.
Fabulous property, incredible views, easy access to spectacular North Shore beaches
Three really important factors for a great vacation on St. John are easy access to the fabulous North Shore beaches, cooling and mosquito dispersing breezes, and the view whilst you sit over your morning coffee or evening cocktail. Areca Peter Bay has ALL of these PLUS A WHOLE LOT MORE. It's an amazing property with incredible views. Beautifully constructed and furnished with everything you could ever need. Highlights include the spectacular infinity edge pool, the huge outdoor dining table (with overhead ceiling fans which mean you can sit outside at any time without getting bugged) and the master bedroom balcony. Luxurious accommodation for five couples, each bedroom has a private bathroom. And great, highly responsive owners - who clearly take great care of the house and guests.
I very much hope to be back soon!!!
Areca Villla - Beautiful!
The Areca villa was absolutely beautiful, both inside and out. The house was immaculate and beautifully furnished. Gorgeous wood trim and doors, beautifully equipped kitchen, beds were comfortable and bedrooms were situated to provide privacy while allowing the whole family to be together. Loved the infinity pool, and made good use of the beach chairs and beach towels at Cinnamon Bay and Trunk Bay which were only a short drive from the villa.
The balcony was lovely and very nicely furnished. Great BBQ grill too. But the unbelievable million-dollar views from this villa are unbeatable. The photos do not do it justice. We wished we would have booked 2 weeks instead of 1.
Diana was very helpful, even responding quickly when she was out of town. Fell in love with this place and it definitely exceeded our expectations! Wishing I was back there.
Areca, beautiful home with an amazing view
We stayed here last year with our daughter, son in law and 2 granddaughters. Decided to return for 2 weeks this year with friends. So much thought and care went into creating this gorgeous home. Our favorite part though is the panoramic view, breathtaking. We've stayed at other very nice villas on Peter Bay/St. John, but none had this view. Many of our meals were at the strategically placed outdoor table. Hope to return.
