About Colette Diegel and Tim Diegel
We are a family of four from Minnesota. My husband Tim, is still working so we are happy to rent our home to others who would enjoy it. We have two daughters,Clare and Shannon, aged 30 and 31. My father, Terry, is also pictured.
Colette Diegel and Tim Diegel purchased this villa in 2011
Why Colette Diegel and Tim Diegel chose East End
We choose the site because of the staggering view. We had a condo at the Reef nearby and would drive up and dream of the home we would build. We built our home in 2011 to take advantage of the amazing view and the lovely trade winds.
What makes this villa unique
The privacy of this executive location is wonderful. The house was built with three distinct guest suites with their own private balconies where couples could retreat to for some quiet time. There is ample deck space for communal activities and the pool is knock out focal point for the whole house.

Exceptional!

UNBELIEVABLE! INCREDIBLE! AMAZING!
When we opened the door to this beautiful villa it took our breath away and our hearts skipped a beat. The view, the view, the view! The villa is stunning, beautifully decorated and very comfortable. All the comforts of home and then some. We had breakfast each morning outside in the gallery by the pool and just absorbed the breathtaking view. Had to force ourselves to leave and explore the island. Bobbie, the island contact for the villa provides a wealth of information. She met us at the airport and helped us get groceries. She was extremely helpful and informative. We followed her recommendations and were never disappointed. She goes out of her way to make your stay perfect, we made a friend for life. ALL of us fell in love with the villa and the island of St. Croix. Already planning our next trip back!
Exceeded our expectations!
The property, the house and the location were no less than perfect. Bobbie was a tremendous help getting us situated, including a stop at the grocery store on our way from the airport.
The beaches were beautiful and quite private. We enjoyed snorkeling Isaacs which was a short hike from the house.
My sons said this was the best vacation ever and that is saying something, for sure.
Breathtaking View
Thanks for the wonderful week at your home in paradise. We could just feel the hospitality from all the little details that made it so special, and the graciousness extended by Bobbie was exceptional. We loved the location of the home, so private yet so close to great restaurants. Duggans was such a favorite that we ate there 3 nights. The home has everything that is needed for a very relaxing stay and the beautiful décor just made it even more enjoyable. This was our first visit to St. Croix so the information packet you sent was very helpful to get to know the island and plan our trip. We definitely will be returning and making the Villa our own for another vacation.

Wonderful home!!
We had the pleasure of spending 1 week at this beautiful home with the most gorgeous views. We stayed there with 1 other couple & the house was perfect. Bobbie & Bob met us at the airport, escorted us to the house and answered all of our questions. The owners provided a large binder of island information to use if needed. The rooms are completely private from each other and then we could hang out in the common area inside & out by the pool where we spent most of our time. You can easily hike down to Jacks Bay & have the beach all to yourself. Bring good shoes for the hike though because the thorny bushes will get ya! We really loved the East end of the island because it was very quiet and still had access to many things to do. Great local shops & restaurants. Thank you for sharing your stunning home with us.
Incredible Place!
I normally don't write reviews for places I stay but this property was so absolutely wonderful I could not refrain. Like some of the other reviews mention the pictures on the website do not do this place justice. The views are breathtaking. The owners of his villa really take care of the property, and go above and beyond making sure to accommodate our every need. The villa was very well maintained and immaculately clean upon our arrival. Bobbie, who manages the property, was extremely helpful in making everything perfect. She met us at the airport where we rented our car, and even stopped by the grocery store for us on the way out to the villa. The house is quite close to some very good restaurants - while we did quite a few our favorite was Blue Water Terrace. Golf at the Buccaneer club was wonderful and the scuba diving ranks up there with other great places we've been in the Caribbean. We will definitely be returning to St. Croix and will certainly stay at the Villa Paradiso again.
Perfect!!!!!!!!!!
We were three couples staying at Villa Paradiso for ten days. Collette was extremely responsive and helpful throughout the research, booking and follow up process. She even did some grocery shopping for us to get the ten days started. Providing us with a cell phone at the house was helpful as Verizon service was not reliable on the island. The island was perfect for the six of us. We travel together to the Carribbean each year and rent a villa and found this island and villa to be just what we wanted.......less populated, no cruise ships, empty beaches, local stores, hotels and restaurants without the hustle and bustle of large chains or towns. The beaches and snorkelling (especially Buck Island trip) were magnificent. We walked to Jack's and Isaacs Bay and felt like we were in Paradise. We loved eating at Blue Water Terrace several times. The island felt very safe and we even got to attend the Jump Up (which was like Carnival); a fabulous treat if it is there when you go (four times a year).
Now about the villa..........it was impeccably clean and well stocked. We really only needed to get basic food and drink supplies for the entire ten days we were there. The three couples each had a beautiful bedroom with full bath, fantastic view and individual terrace. The common areas were beautifully appointed and we spent almost all of our time around the gorgeous endless pool and outdoor table taking in the magnificent view and fabulous weather. Clearly, the house was well designed and decorated with this in mind. Collette has thought of everything you might need from beach chairs, coolers, umbrellas, beach bag, yoga mats, swim noodles for the pool, beach towels to blenders, electric tea kettle, cleaning supplies, telescope, etc. We really felt at home with no need to run out and purchase anything.
Of all the villas we have stayed at over the years this was the best and we hope to return in the near future. Thank you Collette and Bobbie for sharing St. Croix and all of your assistance in making this a perfect vacation for all of us!
