About this property
Cielo Vista | Pool | Sunsets | Generator
Summary:
Cielo Vista is a hilltop villa with two king suites, a queen loft, and a queen apartment (available for an additional fee), sleeping 6–8 guests. The home blends Latin-style flooring, white plaster walls, and rich mahogany accents. Enjoy AC throughout the villa, including the living room, loft, and kitchen, plus a whole-house generator for added comfort. Relax on the pool deck with breathtaking Caribbean Sea views and unforgettable sunsets. 🌴
The Space:
Upon entering the villa, you’ll find the central hub of the home: a two-story lofted Great Room designed to capture gentle Caribbean breezes and abundant natural light. The space features multiple seating areas, A/C, and a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. The loft includes a queen bed and catwalk leading to a private second-story deck. Loft guests share a bathroom with one of the king bedrooms, as the loft does not have its own en-suite.
The Great Room is flanked by two private king bedrooms, each with A/C, king beds, and en-suite bathrooms with dual vanities and spacious spa-style showers.
The fully equipped kitchen opens to the Great Room, allowing guests to enjoy the views and conversation while meals are prepared. Across from the kitchen, a large screened veranda provides a comfortable space for relaxing, dining, or reading while overlooking the private pool and lush tropical gardens—perfect for sunsets and evening cocktails.
The lower-level studio apartment offers an additional private retreat with a kitchen, living area, queen bed, and screened patio. This apartment is available for an additional fee and must be booked by reserving for 8 guests. If the apartment is not reserved, it will remain private, locked, and not rented to other parties during your stay. 🌴
Guest Access:
BOOKVI will arrange for a personal greeter to meet you at the villa for check-in, provide a brief tour of the property, answer any questions about the home, and share helpful insights about the island. Check-in arrangements are tailored to your party size, arrival time, and familiarity with the area to ensure a smooth arrival.
The Neighborhood:
Located on Gift Hill, this villa enjoys spectacular westward-facing views, perfect for breathtaking Caribbean sunsets. The area is quiet and peaceful, yet just minutes from Cruz Bay, the Virgin Islands National Park beaches, and scenic hiking trails. 🌴
Getting Around:
BOOKVI highly recommends renting a 4-wheel drive vehicle to comfortably navigate the terrain on St. John. We are happy to provide a list of trusted local rental companies, and we also have a few villa vehicles available for guests when available.
Current villa vehicle options may include:
• New Custom Toyota Land Cruiser – Full-Time Four-Wheel Drive – 5 Passenger
• Lexus GX – Full-Time Four-Wheel Drive – 6 Passenger
• Jeep Wrangler Islander (4-door) – Four-Wheel Drive – 5 Passenger
• Toyota Highlander – AWD – 6 Passenger
• Chevy Trax – AWD – 4 Passenger
Please inquire with the BOOKVI Team to check availability and explore the best option for your stay. 🚙🌴
If you prefer not to drive, we are also happy to arrange taxi service during your stay.
Other Things to Note:
All Guests will receive a contract for signature for terms and conditions. Once your flight is booked, we ask that you please provide your flight information so we can help plan a smooth arrival and transfer from the airport on St Thomas.
We can assist with arranging private transportation from the airport to the villa, private taxi service, boat charters, private chefs, and spa services. Guests can expect a few emails to help with your vacation planning. We look forward to welcoming you to St. John!
Cielo Vista also offers a lower-level studio apartment that can be added for an additional nightly fee. The studio includes its own kitchen and private bathroom. If the apartment is not reserved, it will remain vacant and locked during your stay and will never be rented to separate guests. Please feel free to inquire before booking if you would like to add this option to your stay. 🌴
Interaction with Guests:
Cielo Vista is managed by BOOKVI, an island concierge service that is readily available to assist with guest needs — whether it’s dinner reservations, boat charters, or rental gear for your beach adventures.
There is also a full-time property management team on call for any maintenance needs during your stay.
