Amazing Family Vacation
This was a fantastic place to stay for our family of 8! The host and property manager were very easy to communicate with and helpful in answering questions and providing suggestions. The night time temps and breeze on the mountain made for comfortable sleeping. Everything we could have needed was provided as well! Thank you for a wonderful stay!

A Breathe of Paradise
Our family of 10 stayed for 1 week. The house was large enough that everyone had ample room and plenty of family time. The bedrooms are all airconditioned and the pool was a fun meeting place for kids and adults. I would highly recommended this beautiful hone as a vacation paradise.

Great place to stay
We had a 40th birthday celebration week and the property was great. the views were amazing and everyone had a fun time.
Property was centrally located making driving to different parts of the island convienent. Although if you are familiar with driving around St John - its actually its own adventure. But we felt safe in the area and around the island.
communcation was great the entire trip, no issues.

Family Vacation
Vela Vista very much met expectations for my family and I. We were 9 adults and one child and had plenty of room to hang out inside and outside as well as dine together. We ate in about half the time and the kitchen had everything we needed plus an outdoor gas grill. We loved the dipping pool and can't forget to mention the view which is amazing!

One of the best places I have had my family in. The drive in is a little confusing the first time but totally marked and Katyä met us there which was great. Easy to get to really and spotless. Plenty of room and amenities. Decks are beautiful for sunrises and relaxing! Will stay here again . Love the sailing nautical feel to this beautiful home.

Family Trip to Vela Vista
Our extended family of 10 ranging in age from 6 to 65 spent 5 nights at Vela Vista. The pics do not do the house and view justice!! Million dollar view! This is a beautiful property and we loved the seclusion on Bordeaux Mountain. The owner and property manager were very responsive and accommodating. 10/10 recommend booking this property!

A special slice of St John
Perfect home for a large group or family stay. Everything as advertised. I especially appreciated the kitchen facilities and supplies. Beautiful decor inside. Lovely landscaping. But the real treasures are the view over Coral Bay facing down island to the BVI and just being immersed in the special microclimate that is Bordeaux Mountain. Falling asleep under the canopy of stars to the chorus of tree frogs. That’s what you pay for. That’s what you get.

Awesome Spot on St. John's!
My wife, three kids, and in-laws got away from the hustle and bustle of city life looking for a place to relax for a week and found it at this great house. The check in was seamless, and the property manager Katja was amazing.
We had a small issue with the door lock one day, and she was literally on site within 10 minutes to help solve the problem! This vacation ended up being one of the best vacations we have had. The kids loved the local beaches and all the different places to eat nearby, especially Skinny Legs. The pool at the house was nice as well if we wanted to just have easy dip in the afternoon and preparing our own meals was easy with everything provided for in the house.

Beautiful Villa with Stunning Views!
Vela Vista surpassed all our expectations. We were looking for a house to comfortably accommodate ourselves, our three adult children, son-in-law & 2 teen-aged grandsons for a family vacation we’d been dreaming of for years. The view of Coral Bay is spectacular- and the star gazing at night was phenomenal. The house is light, airy and well-appointed- it was the perfect base of operations for our getaway adventure! We felt the location was perfect, never more than 20-25 minutes to our choice of beaches, restaurants, shopping or sightseeing!!! Katja & Jeff, the property managers, were very attentive & promptly responded to any questions or concerns. Highly recommended!!!

Well appointed and comfortable home with a great view
The house was unique, well appointed and very comfortable. It hosted 4 couples and one adult child very comfortably in 5 nice bedrooms. Kitchen was very well equipped, decks had high-end, comfortable furnishings. it was well stocked with quality beach gear. Be aware that this mountaintop retreat is relatively remote and requires a jeep to get to/from and will take you about 10-15 minutes on winding narrow and steep roads to reach popular destinations. Also the MBR on the top level is luxurious, but has a 'window' looking down into the open concept living/kitchen area possibly compromising privacy if you have a big group. we would definitely stay here again or check out other properties this host may have.

Another unforgettable stay
This was our second time staying at Vela Vista. We are a family of eight with six kids ranging from 14-26. Although we have stayed at other homes on St. John we chose to stay in Vela Vista again for several reasons: We love the common area and how conducive it is to spending time together while enjoying amazing views. Although it is a touch of a drive to get to beaches and Cruz Bay it is worth it (for us) to be able to come home to what feels like our own private paradise. The bedrooms are big and comfortable. The kitchen is awesome. I spent many mornings reading my book, looking out over the BVI's, feeling very grateful. The pool (it's def more of a dipping pool) was a nice new touch. I highly recommend anyone who wants to feel like they are in their own private paradise to book this property.

Host Helped Make it a Vacation of a Lifetime
First and foremost, I have been using VRBO for many years and I can tell you that this property owner and their manager are THE most responsive individuals I have ever engaged with. From quickly confirming the reservation, and asking if I had any questions to prompt responses and excellent recommendations they were the best I have ever worked with. The property is AMAZING (but you already know that from the pictures). Besides having excellent service, the little things made a huge difference. Going to the beach? They have everything you need from snorkeling equipment to beach chairs and a beach tent. Planning to cook some meals? Not only is the kitchen spacious, the equipment is top-notch and well-stocked. The property itself is very well maintained and very clean. My final comment is this: traveling, especially with a large family is stressful enough. If you want a stress-free property experience and simply relax and enjoy St. John with your family at a beautiful property, this is the place.

Nice property up in the hills
Had a group of six and this was a great option for accommodating three separate couples. Property owners and management were great. The house is about 20 minutes away from town.
I only had a couple of small gripes. The windows in the master suite bathroom were not all working and ventilating the room after someone had done their business was a very slow process. The shades in the room did not seem to cover the entire open window area, so you were just kind of on display to anyone outside the front of the house.
This is also kind of nitpicky, but the TV in the main room of the house is about the size of one of my computer monitors. Would be great to see something a bit larger so people could unwind after a beach day and watch a movie together.
These are small complaints about what was otherwise a great house.

Gorgeous property
The photos of the property do not do it justice, probably because it’s impossible to include sound in photos. Every morning we sat on the deck looking out at the gorgeous views of the ocean and islands listening to a cacophony of birdsong and at night we looked at the lights in the distance while listening to the tree frogs and insects. No traffic, no other voices, just nature. This is the quintessential St John luxury property. The entire home was spotless and included all the items we wanted to make it feel like a home - every small kitchen appliance imaginable, plates, glasses, games in the living room and even a guitar which was a fantastically wonderful surprise for our 18-year old music major; beach chairs and even snorkeling equipment. A truly exceptional property!

Beautiful home with fabulous view of Coral Bay!!
My husband and I celebrated our 50th Anniversary by bringing our children and grandchildren to stay at Vela Vista on St John.
The home is lovely, well maintained, kitchen extremely well appointed with everything I even have at my home. We loved the beautiful decks and comfortable furniture. Bedrooms and bathrooms are lovely and recently updated.
Both the owner and property manager were fabulous to work with and offered suggestions on local adventures, favorite beaches, must see sights / hikes and things to do.
We highly recommend Vela Vista!!

Sobre o anfitrião
Anfitrião: Meredith Erickson
Having based our careers around sailing and the hospitality industry - my husband and I found our little spot of heaven on Bordeaux Mountain, St. John. Overlooking one if our favorite water playgrounds in the world, "Vela Vista" or "Sailing View" couldn't make us, or our guests, feel more at home!
Por que o anfitrião escolheu essa propriedade
Our team is dedicated to making your stay seamless and enjoyable! In the lead-up to your stay, we are happy to answer any questions, as well as offer recommendations and island insights and assist with your itinerary. Vela Vista's local Property Manager will meet you to tour the home upon your arrival and will be available 24/7 to address issues during your stay.
AMENITIES: • All linens/bedding, bath, and beach towels • Beach chairs, beach umbrella, waterproof Bluetooth speaker, and two beach coolers • Samsung washer and dryer, iron, and ironing board • Children’s high chair, baby gates, and pack-n-play • Cleaning equipment (vacuum, broom, swiffer, etc.) • Cleaning supplies (dish soap, dish detergent, laundry detergent, fabric softener, etc.) • Basic toiletries (shampoo, conditioner, body wash, hand soap) • Basic paper products (enough toilet paper and paper towels to get you started!)
O que faz essa propriedade ser única?
Situated high atop Bordeaux Mountain at 1100 feet elevation, Vela Vista offers spectacular views of the East End of St. John and the British Virgin Islands. The home is in a quiet residential area on a safe, peaceful road with no pass-through traffic. You won't hear the sounds of roosters calling, trucks rumbling, or the bustle of town - just the peace and tranquility of your lush natural surroundings!
Bordeaux Mountain is slightly cooler than the rest of the island (you may want a long-sleeved option for the evenings), and the home faces east to make the most of the tropical tradewinds.
Vela Vista is located in close proximity to several V.I. National Park trailheads: the Bordeaux Mountain Trail (3/4 mile away), Reef Bay Trail (1.5 mile), and L'Esperance Trail (3 miles). The island is 70% protected by National Park, and you will drive through a large section of it on your way to the home. The famous Windmill Bar is located 10 minutes away!
Drive times: 20-minute drive to Cruz Bay 12-minute drive to Coral Bay 10-20-minute drive to the North Shore beaches
NOTE: A car rental is absolutely necessary for your stay! We provide free on-site parking for three cars at Vela Vista.
Due to high demand, we advise booking your car rental as you confirm your reservation.
Any type of car is suitable, as the roads to the home are all paved and not steep (although the last mile on Bordeaux Mountain is narrow and winding!). If you'd like to explore the more remote parts of the island, you should consider renting a 4WD vehicle like an SUV or Jeep.
Please be aware that taxis are unreliable, and ride-sharing services like Uber/Left do not exist. Remember, in the USVI we drive on the LEFT!
