We enjoyed our stay at La Bella Vita immensely! It was the perfect house in the perfect location for us. We had 2 couples and 4 kids and it was the perfect layout. We did have some maintenance issues while there but Catered To dealt with it very quickly! We would absolutely stay there again!!

Beautiful View!

We absolutely enjoyed our stay at the beautiful home. Our adult kids enjoyed each be able to have their own bed/bath! The island was wonderful, and it was great to just hang out at the pool as well.

Better than expected.

The house is bigger than visualized in the pictures. AC throughout the house is a big plus on St. John. Excellent communication with the property management, easy in and out. The ocean view is outstanding day and night. I highly recommend La Bella Vita.

La Bella Vita

This property is more beautiful then the pictures. (Pictures need to be updated showing additional improvements.) It has been updated with additional outdoor space leaving everyone their own space when wanted. The views are spectacular over to St. Thomas and beyond. We will most likely rent here again as we can't wait to see the additional amenities planned for the villa!

Great vacation home - Views are AMAZING!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Stayed with another family - great place to share! Views alone made the trip for us; we enjoyed just about every meal and cup of coffee or glass of wine outside overlooking the ocean, day and night. Well stocked with towels, beach chairs, and beverage coolers, which was a nice touch. A/C unit in one of the rooms was rattly/extra noisy, but other than that, a lovely home indeed.

Great house with gorgeous views

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our party of 7 stayed at La Bella Vita mid-July and had a wonderful time! We chose the home because of the views displayed on the website, and the amenities of full AC and a back-up generator. The views were beautiful, the property was in a quiet gated neigborhood, and it wasn’t far from town. The kitchen was equipped well, although we only cooked/grilled in one night. We would definitely stay at La Bella Vita again!

La Bella Vita is perfection!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Booking and checking in was extremely easy and went really smoothly. The house -- WOW -- the views are honestly stunning and the pool and outdoor space are amazing. The four identical bedrooms all with ensuite baths and king beds were perfect for a group of couples. It was one of the most well-appointed rentals I've ever stayed in - They had everything you could want or need. The location is great too. It's secluded enough but still only about a 15 minute drive to Cruz Bay and a 20 minute ride to the beaches. Highly recommend! Would definitely stay again!

Living and dining area spacious with lovely views. Porches have great furniture for sitting and dining and enjoying the fabulous views. Pool and verandas around pool are wonderful. Places not only for sunbathing and enjoying the sunset, but dining as well. Each bedroom has its own spacious well equipped bathroom.

Perfect home for 4 couples!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our experience with Catered To was superb and the home surpassed our expectations. Viky greeted us as the ferry dock and was extremely helpfulwith picking up our jeep rentals and answering any questions we had about the island. La Bella Vita was perfect for our group of 4 couples because the bedrooms were all equal in size, amenities and views. The views of Cruz Bay below were wonderful. We began and ended every day on the patio just soaking up that view! The house was clean and well stocked also. Thank you for an amazing week! We hope to return very soon!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall La Bella Vita is a lovely home in a lovely gated location in good proximity to town. The outside area, pool, grill area, multiple lounging areas are fantastic, the views over Cruz Bay and sunsets are awesome. The bedrooms are well situated for couples or a family with older children since each bedroom is accessed from the outside. Some of the negatives - furniture is on the older side and some of the mattresses are not comfortable at all. Lighting in the bedrooms is very dim, maybe due to electicity cost? but hard to find anything at night in the room! One of the bedrooms definitely smelled like stale smoke - it did not get better during the week we were there. There were plenty beach chairs but a few were broken and most of the shoulder straps were broken. The LR could use a furniture refresh; Kitchen was nice size, icemaker was not making ice very quickly but there were ice trays provided, dishwasher worked well but was older and not secured into the cabinet and would feel like it was tipping over when the bottom rack was full and pulled out. Kitchen has a good assortment of pots, pans, dishes, and equipment but only had 6 coffee mugs. Management company was nice - we left an item in the house and they were able to locate it and bring it to the PO to send out.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family and I loved the view and the outdoor space. Plenty of room to spread out outdoors. The ice maker did not work. We constantly had to make ice in the trays or buy bags of ice. We did notify management of this. Why put trays in the freezer unless this is an ongoing issue? The ac unit in the one bedroom upstairs was very noisy. Did not notify management because this must also be an ongoing issue as I saw someone write about it in the book the owners leave to write in about their stay. I did notify management about the cleanliness of the floors as the bottom of our feet were very dirty the first night we were there. Nothing was done. The dishwasher had to be secured into its place because it was difficult to open the door. Another ongoing problem because the side of the oven is very scratched from all the opening and ’s a tight fit. Catered Too was responsive to our needs regarding items that could be fixed on the spot except for the cleanliness of the floor. My family and I have been coming to St. John for many many years and do understand the issues with maintaining a large home like this. Even though we loved the view and outdoor space I would not rent this villa again. I think it’s about time that the furniture (couch in great room is not comfortable) gets upgraded along with a new kitchen and appliances.
