About this property

Almost Heaven with beautiful views of the BVI

This luxurious two-level villa is located at the 600 foot level on Bordeaux Mountain, offering spectacular views of Coral Bay and the British Virgin Islands.

This magnificent three bedrooms, three bath villa is air conditioned in all three bedrooms. There are covered verandas on both upper and lower levels.

The villa offers free WiFi and Internet TV . The gourmet kitchen offers stainless steel appliances, granite counter tops, and cherry wood cabinets and all the conveniences of home.

The space
Outside you can enjoy the cool sea breezes year round on the pool deck, which is furnished with chaises and chairs. There is a 42 foot pool to enjoy after a day at the beach. The beautiful north shore beaches (Maho Bay, Hawks Nest, Trunk Bay, etc.) are an easy 15 minute ride from the villa, as are the South Shore beaches (Salt Pond Bay) and the East End (Haulover, Round Bay).

Wake up each morning to stunning sunrises as you enjoy your coffee on either of two expansive balconies. There is nothing like enjoying a candle lit dinner and glass of wine on the veranda overlooking the breathtaking views of the Caribbean. It certainly feels like you are suspended on a cloud! Relax, enjoy, and unwind in your “home away from home”.

Inside, enjoy comfortable furnishings and cool terrazzo floors as you gather with family and friends in the living room and gourmet kitchen, which is outfitted with stainless steel appliances, granite counters, and all the tools you'll need to create memorable meals. A Weber grill is available outside.

Each bedroom has its own en-suite full bathroom, and each offers access to verandas and views. Bedrooms have air conditioning available, as well as cooling breezes. One bedroom is equipped with desk, ergonomic chair, and surge protector.

Recommendations: The property is on Bordeaux Mountain and all guests should have a 4 wheel drive vehicle. Our property manager will meet you at the ferry dock to guide you to our villa.

Beautiful view. House was perfect for our family. Kitchen had everything you need to cook or pack lunch for the beach (locking lid tupperware for the win!) Pool was fantastic.

Absolutely stunning views. Loved having the pool which was clean, big, and refreshing water temp. Nina was such a great communicator and very helpful. You definitely need a 4WD or AWD vehicle to get here. I love being on the slower paced less touristy Coral Bay side of the island. The A/C units in the bedrooms worked well and there was plenty of hot water. We had a party of 6 guys and felt like it was an adequate amount of space.

Property was amazing. Please be aware, though, the driveway is very steep and very narrow, and can be very difficult to navigate. But the views are worth it.

Beautiful View

The property was exactly what we expected, perfect, probably one of the best views on St John. The drive to and from the house however was very challenging, bumpy with blind curves. Please keep your jeep in 4 Wheel Drive and be careful.

Great Everything

Excellent pool, awesome location, and amazing view. Enjoyed the layout and house had everything needed to enjoy the island and relax. Driveway/access is a little spicy to navigate but nothing out of the ordinary for the island and the view is well worth it. Communication was easy and helpful. Would definitely come back.

Almost Heaven is an appropriate name!

We never tried of the views from this beautiful villa! We appreciated the binoculars to watch the boats in the harbor below.The rooms were spacious and the kitchen lacked nothing we needed. The AC in the bedrooms worked well and the patio was breezy. The pool was huge and a bit warmer than others we've experienced in Coral Bay. The driveway was challenging (we actually needed 4wheel drive, especially after rain), but then was a quick shot down Bordeaux to Coral Bay. The breezes helped keep the bugs at bay, and the bats helped too.We truly enjoyed our stay!

They named it right!

The view, the atmosphere, it truly is almost heaven. For our family of 6 adults, the layout and amenities were great. Now the beaches on St. John’s are the best in the Caribbean in my opinion. The only downside some might find would be the drive in and out. I found it fun and challenging, others might be a bit intimidated. It is a pretty steep drive.

Great Views

This was a great location with great views. Coral Bay is out of the way of the busy tourist areas. It had wonderful views and felt just right. It would help having a Jeep to get into the drive. I would go back and may sometime. Great spot.

Perfect house with gorgeous views

Our family of 5 (three teenage boys) had a great time at Almost Heaven. The house had everything we needed and was exactly as advertised. Smooth communication and check-in process was a breeze. The views are incredible and we like the quieter side of St. John in Coral Bay.The other comments about the driveway are correct - it is daunting even for someone experienced in driving on St. John, but worth it for the views and the house. Thanks!

Beautiful view!

Very well stocked house. Amazing views of the bay and the BVI's. Sun rises were worth getting up early for. Definitely need a 4x4 and nerves of steel to commute on the final section of the road. Easy commute to the beaches and everything for the beach is at the house. Spent a down day enjoying the besutiful pool.

Almost Heaven met all our expectations. The home was comfortable & the view exquisite. We would definitely stay again!The street leading to the home & parking in the driveway was most difficult especially at night. A jeep is necessary. Nina was helpful guiding us in.Also , the manager was most accommodating

Best View in the VI

Almost Heaven definitely lives up to its name. Great communication with the host. Villa is well appointed and easliy accessible. Beautiful views and high enough to get a great breeze to keep the bugs away. Great pool to relax in after a long day of doing nothing but sitting on the beach. Easy to get in and out of for a day of not doing anything but sitting on the beach with a nice frosty beverage. Last but not least, I would be remiss if I didn’t mention the chairs. These may be the most comfortable chairs in the world for doing nothing. When not at the beach or pool, this was the place to be - sitting in paradise and enjoying my new favorite channel on the gigantic, organic screen TV. I call it the EastEnd/BVI channel.

Amazing View!

We had a wonderful time at Almost Heaven! The house had everything we needed for the beach and the views are fantastic! My kids loved the huge pool, they had lots of floats to use as well. Leo and team were very responsive to any questions we had. The road to get down to the house and driveway is very steep but not an issue after a few times. 4WD is a must!!! Almost Heaven was a great stay for our family!
