About this property

Luxury Caribbean Villa with Panoramic Ocean View and Pool

PLEASE SEE END OF DESCRIPTION BELOW FOR ACCURATE RATE INFORMATION.

Balance Villa is an exceptionally private, beautiful home nestled on a green hillside overlooking expansive views of Fish Bay. The villa – designed and built by a distinguished on-island architect and an artistic craftsman builder – has been thoughtfully developed to take advantage of cool trade winds, relaxing, gorgeous views and your every need.

The Villa is tastefully furnished with all the comforts of a luxurious island home. On the outside: an abundant terrace – plenty of open space for sitting by the pool sun bathing or shaded area for reading a book and watching the views. Adjacent to the pool: a built-in grill with wet bar and covered veranda with dining table overlooking the bay – all surrounded by lush landscaping.

Inside the house: a great room featuring floor-to-ceiling glass windows with stunning views of the Caribbean Sea, a large flat screen TV and Bose sound system. The open floor plan continues into the dining area with a spacious West Indies dining room table and seating for six. Mahogany furnishings and rich fabrics mixed with a few select antiques pieces compliment the island ambiance of Balance.

The custom kitchen is just what one would need to create that memorable Caribbean dinner – or maybe just breakfast at the built-in bar. Just off the kitchen is a half bath and the first bedroom suite.

A staircase ascends to the upper floor and to the second king bedroom/bath suite. Each of Balance’s bedroom suites feature king-size beds with private bathrooms, digital A/C, and flat screen TVs. The bathrooms feature an indoor and outdoor garden shower, as well as private balcony with view of the bay.

Balance villa is managed by a professional management company and their on-island staff is available if you need assistance 24/7. They will also meet you at the ferry dock, and lead you to the house.

Other amenities include:

Flat-screen cable 40" TV in Great Room w/BOSE DVD player w/surround sound, a 32" TV (with cable & DVD) in upstairs bedroom, & a 32" TV in main-level bedroom (with cable & DVD), radio, books, games, movie + music collections, A/C in both bedrooms/baths, UV water filtration, Wi-Fi, answering machine, hair dryers, binoculars, built-in gas grill poolside with dry bar, manual gate at pool courtyard entry, beach chairs + cooler, dishwasher, and washer/dryer.

Amazing Anniversary Trip
We were married on St. John and come to stay every year for our anniversary. This was our first time in Fish Bay and at this house and we loved it. The house was wonderful, clean and well appointed. Our greeter did a great job showing us around. The view was amazing and the outdoor showers were wonderful! The washer had an error code and they came right out to fix it. The communication was great and we'd for sure stay again.

Perfect Holiday Getaway
We stayed for a week just before Christmas. The property is absolutely beautiful, in a quiet area only 10-15 minutes from the main town of Cruz Bay. The outdoor patio/pool and grill area has stunning views and a great setup for relaxing around the house. Check-in was very easy with Kiera meeting us at our rental car pickup right next to the ferry and leading the way to the property. This was not our first time visiting St. John but has been the favorite place we have stayed and I would absolutely recommend it.

60th Birthday Celebration!
This property was just as it said it would be! Unfortunately we lost power for 4 out of the 10 days of our stay, but that was NOT the property's fault. It was an island wide blackout, but who needs electricity when your at the beach?!?. Owners did tell me they are looking into a generator, so don't let that stop you because you will miss out on a spectacular view while looking out any of the windows and while you're floating in the beautiful pool. Easy drive to get to town and close to gas stations and food shopping. Marc and Ann were fabulous to communicate with and have a wealth of island knowledge. Kristen, the property manager was exceptional! Always spot on with communication. All in all, Balance Villa made turning 60 so worth it! I would highly recommend this property!

Winter Getaway
This was our first stay on St. John. The Villa was exactly what we were looking for. Beautiful view listening to the ocean at Fish Bay. The area was quiet and peaceful. After a day of sightseeing we were able to come back to go for a swim and relax and enjoy the tranquility. The Villa not only had the view but had all the amenities including AC in the bedroom. We would definitely stay there again.

Wonderful stay in Fish Bay
The villa was a comfortable stay for the 3 of us. The space was super clean and cozy. The outdoor showers off the master suites were beautiful and I will definitely miss showering in that space every day! The swimming pool was the perfect way to end our day on beautiful St. John.

Perfect!
We have traveled to St. John many times and have stayed many places. I have to say that since my island friends moved state-side, Balance Villa is by far the best place we've stayed. Super clean, well equipped, great location, and just beautiful. We especially loved the outdoor space, pool and outdoor showers. The kitchen is spacious and has everything you need! We would definitely stay again!

When choosing a vacation home online you never know if reality will match expectations -WOW! Balance Villa was clean, beautiful, thoughtfully and tastefully decorated with breathtaking views. If you were wondering if the Villa has…. just open a drawer or cupboard and you will find what you need. Spacious- plenty of room for 2 friends to spend time together or apart. Property Manager was exceedingly helpful and friendly.

Truly amazing villa!
Balance Villa is perfection! We had the most wonderful stay because the views from the villa are so beautiful and the villa itself is gorgeous and very clean. The amenities are terrific for cooking meals and the pool with its view is spectacular. The owners and management company were all very helpful and kind and made the process easy and fun. The photos do not do this villa justice, it is so pretty. And the neighborhood is wonderful, peaceful and quiet yet close enough to town to easily go out for sightseeing, shopping, groceries and restaurants. We could not have been happier there.

Villa Balance….. so lovely!
At first… following behind our villa greeter in our rental jeep we (I ) were a little overwhelmed by how far ( I thought) it was from Cruz Bay. We usually have stayed closer in. But honestly, it was no big deal at all once we did it by ourselves :). The property was immaculate! The outdoor showers were amazing and the pool was the perfect temperature. The one and only drawback for us was only having A/C in the bedrooms. Would we stay there again?? Absolutely!!

Gorgeous property. The house had everything we needed including a fully stocked kitchen for preparing any meal. We throughly enjoyed the swimming pool that had stunning views of the turquoise Caribbean water! We grilled out and enjoyed the outdoor space & was perfect entertaining area. The two separate master bedroom suites were also a big bonus and both also had incredible outdoor showers!! We loved everything about our vacation week & plan to return again someday.

We could not have asked for a better place to stay. The house was just as good as the pictures, and the view off of the pool deck is immaculate. Far enough from Cruz Bay for quiet evening & nights, but close enough to get where you wanted to be. All of the best beaches (Hawksnest, Trunk, Cinnamon), The Windmill Bar, Mongoose Junction - all within about 10-15 minutes. We would definitely stay here again!

Owner Welcome Note from our Guest Book.

The first time we stayed on St. John was 1999-which was also the year we bought this beautiful 1/2 acre sitting on a cliff in Fish Bay. Back then, all roads leading here were dirt (or mud when it rained).

Eight years later, the roads are paved and 'Balance' is complete! Building our home has been a long three year journey- lots of laughter, tears, excitement and frustrations. The Lord has blessed us every step of the way.

We are happy to share our home with you and hope your stay is a comfortable and relaxing as it is for us.

We hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
Ann & Marc
