About this property

Maridadi Clifftop Oceanfront - Beautiful Outdoor Terrace, Solar & Tesla Storage

Maridadi Clifftop is perched atop Boatman Point with sweeping, south-facing views located under a 10-minute drive (2 miles) from Cruz Bay. “Maridadi” means beautiful and charming in Swahili- a name we believe perfectly suits the simple elegance of our home. Upon parking in the parking area behind the Maridadi stonewall entrance column, walk to the entrance of the driveway, walk down the driveway to a gently sloping stone staircase surrounded by lush tropical vegetation, including banana, key lime, and starfruit trees, leads to an open and private terrace overlooking the Caribbean Ocean with an expansive vista of St Croix (40 miles away). The terrace has an outdoor kitchen, all necessary kitchen and dining wear, sink, propane barbecue, dining table & four chairs, a cantilevered aluminum umbrella, and two lounge chairs. The terrace provides a quiet, blissful area where waves roar a hundred feet below.

Upon entering the unit that makes up Maridadi Clifftop, double sliding glass doors give way to a modern, air-conditioned bedroom with a king-size Westin Heavenly Bed by Beauty Rest, smart TV, ceiling fan, his and hers night tables, and a walk-in closet. In addition, the room offers a quaint living area that is partitioned from the bedroom with a new comfortable sofa, table, and dresser- all located in front of a large window with an unobstructed view of the Caribbean Ocean. Two sizeable wooden mahogany sliding doors open to a spacious full bathroom with a glass door shower. Many of our guests often exclaim that waking up at Maridadi Clifftop feels like waking up on a boat due to the elevated, expansive ocean view and dramatic setting atop the crashing waves.

Maridadi Clifftop is located in the residential neighborhood of Boatman Point. Boatman Point is very quiet and has underground utilities, a private roadway, and a rocky beach at the end of Monte Road where you can snorkel and lounge that can be accessed via a staircase ¼ mile from Maridadi Clifftop. The neighborhood is extremely safe and is frequented by runners and walkers due to the road vistas and lack of vehicle traffic.

Important:
Maridadi Clifftop is NOT the right place for those looking to party and be loud. Instead, it provides a romantic, quiet, modern escape designed to interface with nature. It’s the perfect choice for couples looking to unwind and relax in luxury while enjoying St. John and all it offers. Maridadi Clifftop is the downstairs unit of a single-family residence where we live on premises on the top floor. Maridadi Clifftop's incredible privacy makes it unique, as it has a separate entrance and stairway. We are a family of three that is very quiet and relaxed! We moved to St. John over a decade ago to enjoy its nature, laid-back lifestyle, and incredible beauty. Maridadi Clifftop is the perfect launchpad to explore what “Love City” offers.

Notable amenities:
Two Tesla batteries for power backup that fully power the unit with AC, water, etc., in the case of a power failure
High-Speed Fiber Optic Cable (100 Mbps)
End of road location
Satellite TV (Dish Network)
Bose Wireless Speaker (Connect via Bluetooth)

Maridadi was a great experience. One of the best views on the island and you have it all to yourself. The host was amazing and gave us recommendations to great restaurants and tips before our trip. The unit had everything we needed, we loved the coffee bar and cooked breakfast often during our trip. After a week of being on island and seeing others accommodations, we were extremely happy with our decision to stay at Maridadi.

We had a wonderful stay! Ruby met us when we arrived and was so nice and welcoming, which made us feel comfortable right away.The view from the home overlooking the cliffs was absolutely beautiful and one of our favorite parts of the stay. Although the place is located within the home, it still felt very private and peaceful.The place is small, but very complete and thoughtfully designed. Everything we needed was there and it was clear that a lot of care went into making the space comfortable for guests.Overall, everything was clean, cozy, and exactly as described. Ruby was a great host and we would definitely stay here again!

The house was very clean, beds super comfortable, nice shower with Native shampoo products and Dove soap bars was a treat for me! Just like home! The coffee bar was excellent. And bottle of wine at check in was appreciated. The sun at this time of year sets in a far corner of the view but you can still enjoy the post setting colors! The only negative to mention is the house is shared with the owners, which happened to be away while we were there, which we appreciated. They live on the top floor with a view of the rental deck so privacy could have been sacrificed but wasn't in their absence.

First of all, the view is every bit as spectacular as you think from the photos. Amazing. Hosts - kind and accommodating. Bed - almost as comfy as our own Tempur-pedic at home. Bathroom was very nice, shower is beautiful. This is a small space, but it is laid out very well and perfect for two. The cooking space is small, but plenty. We made omelettes, bacon and bagels every morning and cooked a great ribeye & asparagus dinner one night. The patio is private, with an amazing breeze. Lots of tropical plants surround you. I’m searching for any “bewares” and they are so minor. I mean, if you like lots of cooking spices you need to bring them - there are a few basic recipes nes there. The bathroom sink is a little splashy if you turn the water on high. It takes a minute for the water to warm up in the shower. Literally the most insignificant things, and if those things bother you then you probably should stay at the Westin. We booked this space to celebrate our 30th anniversary so we were looking for a great view that was private annd anway from any crowds and it was a sensational choice. We would absolutely stay here again with zero hesitation.

We cannot say enough good things about our stay at Maridadi! Ruby and Fernando are the consummate hosts. You can see how hard they both have worked to create this wonderful home and space. Ruby greeted us when we arrived and gave us a quick walkthrough of the space. Although they live on site, we did not see or hear anyone else during the stay. It felt VERY private and quiet. Ruby did answer a few texts from us inquiring about places to visit on the island. Her suggestions were always spot on. The accommodations are immaculate and well appointed. We had everything we needed including the ability to cook your own meals if you want. The bed was extremely comfortable and had very nice linens. Just an incredible space for a getaway for a single person or couple. Oh, and the view is absolutely breathtaking. Morning coffee and an evening glass of wine here is just dream-like. We will definitely be back soon. Thanks for everything, Ruby!
Breathtaking views!

Staying for a family vacation!

Fernando was great! The only thing I would say is that the family lives above and not completely on it's own. It's on the same property. It is not attached to the house at all though, but it wasn't really specific on being on property with the family. However, they were great so it didn't bother us!

Beautiful Views!!!

Absolutely stunning home! The owners thought of everything that you could possibly need for a beach vacation. The photos are very accurate. This home is close to Cruz Bay and the beaches, yet far enough away to offer solitude. We enjoyed relaxing on the terrace, listening to the waves below, and utilizing the thoroughly stocked outdoor kitchen. I would rate this home more than 5 star if we could. Should our travels take us back to St. John, I would definitely want to stay here again. Thank you Ruby and family for sharing your lovely home.

Exceptional Stay

Maridadi Clifftop is amazing and a perfect stay for two. The photos do not do the space or the spectacular views justice. It is situated on a nice quiet street but is only an 8min drive to the action of Cruz Bay. The hosts have an unparalleled attention to detail for the guests (cooler, beach chairs, outside speaker and light, fully stocked kitchen with utensils and spices, etc). You can cook an entire dinner which is nice on vacation because eating out for every meal can become tiring. We feel very grateful we picked their home for our trip and would not consider any other homes when returning to St. John. Thanks for a great trip!
