Overview
2 Bed/2 Bath, 3rd BR Loft, Stunning View of Coral Bay and Beyond
Look no further than Casa YaYa for your perfect St. John retreat. The moment you enter, the view will take your breath away. Casa YaYa boasts one of the prettiest views on the island. Located on the western hillside overlooking beautiful Coral Bay, we are located in a quiet area with wonderful breezes and full sun until mid to late afternoon. If privacy is what you desire, this is the villa for you.
If you ever decide to come inside, the Caribbean decor and comfort will have you feeling relaxed and rejuvenated. This one level villa (with 2nd story loft) is unique for its large 10 foot openings along the entire east side allowing beautiful sunshine and cooling breezes to invade the villa. The view from each room is unparalleled. It boasts a large great room and kitchen. The two master bedrooms are located on opposite sides of the great room for maximum privacy. Each air conditioned bedroom features a king sized bed and affords the same spectacular view as the great room. Both bathrooms have outdoor showers that are highly desired in this tropical climate. The 2nd story loft is open to the great room and features a queen sized bed and is accessed by a traditional style loft ladder.
Enjoy the privacy that this villa has to offer while lounging in the newly constructed 20x12x5 pool. Sunbathe on the newly expanded sun deck. Unwind in one of the hammock swings. All of this is possible as you take in the view of Coral Bay, Tortola and the Sir Francis Drake Passage to Virgin Gorda. Don't forget to watch the sunrise and moonrise, which are visible from every room in the house.
Located in Coral Bay, where many of the locals choose to live, we are in close proximity to comfortable island dining whether you are looking for the very casual to more upscale. Situated between the more quiet eastern beaches and the world famous north shore beaches, Casa YaYa is only minutes from each. Hiking trails abound and are also only minutes away. A night out in Cruz Bay, dining and shopping, is just a short (but curvy) 20-30 minute drive on island roads where speeds are rarely over 20 miles per hour. The island is 2/3 National Park land and therefore protected from over development.
Our On Island Coordinator and Staff will ensure that your stay is comfortable and that your needs are met.
Casa YaYa will not disappoint and will leave you dreaming of your return!

About Cindy Humphreys
We are landlocked midwesterners who have fallen in love with St John and the 'island life.' We love for others to discover the true beauty of St. John and believe that Casa YaYa is the perfect place for this to occur.
Cindy Humphreys purchased this villa in 2012
Why Cindy Humphreys chose Coral Bay
From the moment we stepped through the door, we were mesmerized by 'the view.' We looked at several properties and this is the only one that left us eager to return! We are confident that the comfortable surrounds afforded here will complement the scenic beauty of Casa YaYa.

Wonderful!

Can't beat those views!
We had a wonderful relaxing time on the island and at this house. After a long day at the beach it was great to walk into the house with ocean breezes and unforgettable views. The house is very comfortable and has everything you could possibly need. The kitchen was very well stocked which made it easy for nights that we just wanted to stay in and cook. Beds were very comfortable. Overall this house is a 10!
Memorable Vacation and beautiful home!
What a wonderful vacation and WONDERFUL property Casa Yaya is!! It was the perfect home base for us to come back 'home' after a day out on the beach or exploring the island. The view is truly magnificent. The deck and pool were larger than we thought, and the views go on for days. You can see the entire East End, and have wonderful views of the BVI's (even Virgin Gorda on a clear day!). The location of this villa in Coral Bay is absolutely perfect. You are far enough away from everything to feel completely at peace, and the area is so quite and comfortable! However, if you feel the need to go to Cruz Bay for the night, or have an excursion there, the drive is only 20-25 minutes across the island to get there. We thoroughly enjoyed having drinks on the deck, relaxing in the pool with a view, or just relaxing in the swing. This house makes you feel at home the minute you step inside. Beau the outdoor cat that hangs out around the property helps make you feel at home as well.
The layout of Casa Yaya is perfect for a couples vacation. The two bedrooms are very equal in size, and there is a wonderful living area/kitchen in the middle. We didn't need the loft, but that too was larger than we expected. We all particularly loved the outdoor showers as well. You don't often get to take showers outside in paradise!!
This was a vacation we will forever remember! We love St. John, love it's surroundings, and absolutely love CasaYaya! We will definitely be planning a trip back to St. John in the near future, and would 100% stay here again! It was amazing. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

In excellent condition.
Casa Yaya was beautiful. Loved all the amenities, swings on the deck, beach chairs, cooler , pool floats.beach towels etc. The iron and hair dryer need to be updated. Enjoyed our little house cat Bo. Looked forward to her greeting us every morning.There was two rough patches of road going in that could use improvement. However I've been on a lot worse roads into other villas. I would actually give this villa 4 1/2 stars if that was an option.
Perfect!
Casa YaYa was even better than expected! We loved staying on the East side of the island where it was quieter with less traffic, yet there were still plenty of hikes, beaches and restaurants close by. What a perfect deck to relax on and enjoy the views. Being able to open all the sliders and let in the breezes every day was also fantastic! The owner, Cindy, and the greeter on island, Gwen, were both very helpful, nice and so easy to communicate with. Pick Casa YaYa for your next trip to St. John!
Beautiful view
We have been coming to St. John since 1980 and must say we liked it much more then when no one else knew about it and we had the island all to ourselves. We have chosen to stay in the Coral Bay area every visit except two. Reason why? The views are fantastic. A lot of people ask us why we don't stay closer to the water or near Cruz Bay. My favorite things in the world are oceans and mountains. This house has everything that I love - views of the eastern end of St. John and the British V.I.. This is the only house we have stayed at that has a warm pool. All the others are chilly. The fact that you have a pool cover allows for this. Great communication with the owners and Gwen (house manager on site). Really shouldn't be writing this because we don't want any more people coming here.
Great villa with amazing view!
The view does not get old! Very clean and comfortable villa. Loved the deck and the pool. Beds were very comfortable. Not sure how many hours I spent on the deck just staring out over the east end of St. John and the BVI's... couldn't get enough! Perfect house for a perfect vacation. Definitely hope to go back!
