Om boendet

Med i det sista numret av St. John Magazine

Orchid Garden är din romantiska resa på St. John. En grekisk villa i marockansk stil med utsikt över det karibiska havets vattenlevande vatten. Koppla av, njut, varva ner och inspireras av Orchid Garden. En tropisk natur i naturen. Exotiska orkidéer, coyfish-dammar och många vackra inhemska växter omger dig. En privat värld av exotiska skatter från Far East of Ric och Lolita (ägare av Now @ Zen-butikerna på St. John). Miljondalsvyer av BVI: s, East end, St. Croix och oändlig 245 graders utsikt över havet, himlen, öarna, soluppgång, månuppgång och spektakulära moln och regnbågar. Fregatter, pelikaner och seahawks glider förbi och tittar på bukten nedan efter knölvalar som vandrar genom varje vinter. Ligger inom 20 minuters gångavstånd till en vit sandstrand och fågelreservat. Ric och Lolita har rest över Asien i över 24 år och har byggt sitt hem kring sin konst. När du upplever skönheten och lugnet i Orchid Garden kommer du tillbaka för mer. Privat massör och catering kan ordnas i förväg.
Spektakulär molnövervakning, solnedgång efterglöd från platt Mediterrean takskugga-pagod. Ta med din kropp och lämna din stress bakom. Kärlek, fred, lycka

Även om vi är ett två sovrum föredrar vi att hyra till ett par bara för att hålla känslan av en romantisk tillflyktsort med lugna omgivningar. Vi kallades Buddha Garden men ändrade namnet till Orchid Garden eftersom vi brinner för att samla orkidéer.

Stunning views!

We’re returning visitors to Ric & Lolita’s place. The location is close to multiple sand beaches for snorkeling and swimming. Beautiful hikes are also nearby. The views from the house are incredible, with several places to enjoy those wonderful views while dining. The structure of the house, with high ceilings keeps it nice and cool. We didn’t need the air conditioning while we were there in March. We star gazed at night on the large. flat area that has several different comfortable areas with chairs and pillows. The artwork is everywhere - we especially loved the hippos on the top. Getting to the house was easy with the concrete driveway allowing access in any weather conditions. Ric and Lolita are great hosts - informative, helpful and enjoyable.

Art-filled paradise in St. John

Lolita and Ric's place is remarkably beautiful, and filled with so many artistic touches that we were still discovering new things to appreciate after a week's stay. It was like living in a museum. The views are amazing, and there are so many different places to relax (balconies, screened porch, rooftop, decks, gardens) that it is like staying in a villa. Nearby hiking (Ram's head, petroglyphs, reef bay) was outstanding, as was the snorkeling at salt pond and little lameshur bay. The dirt road to little lameshur beach requires a jeep and the willingness to drive on a muddy, bumpy and unpaved road, but it is well worth the effort.Because there are so many sliding screen doors and windows, there are inevitably some gaps, so you can expect a few mosquitos, but they didn't bother us, and the AC in the master bedroom did the trick. Also, although the place is very clean, because there are hundreds of art objects on display, there is inevitably a bit of dust on a statue or picture frame here and there. The place is as clean as it can reasonably be expected to be under the circumstances. Overall, it was the most unique place we've ever stayed in, and we will be taking about it for years to come.

Incredible ocean views

This is such a unique, artistic and charming home! The character of the furnishings and craftsmanship make it special. The beds are comfortable. We enjoyed sunrises, happy hours and star gazing from the rooftop patio, morning coffee in the breakfast nook and reading books on the covered porch. It is in a quiet location close to some great hiking and great snorkeling in some pretty remote bays. We loved our stay and will cherish the memories.

Delightful Living Space With Panoramic Water Views

This unique space is well designed for two couples -- each with en suite bath. You have the entire upper floor, plus various decks and patios, including a large rooftop deck -- all with panoramic views of water and islands. The living space is artistically designed and decorated with eclectic art from around the world. An amazing space in an amazing location!

Ric & Lolita are very knowledgeable and were very helpful answering our questions about the island. We love staying at Orchid Garden and already booked again for next year. Laura & Igor

Quiet side of the island

We chose this property to avoid the noise/crowding of the Cruz Bay area and indeed it delivered the quiet and seclusion that we sought. We found the drive to the North Shore area to be no problem and we were super close to the Salt Pond Bay which was fantastic. The choice of places to eat nearby is limited but we really liked Skinny Legs and another nearby restaurant enough that we didn't venture beyond Coral Bay for evening meals. We enjoyed the unusual decor, the beautiful gardens, and the rooftop star gazing at our property. We didn't realize that there might be limits on the use of the air conditioner (if the island looses power, as it did briefly once during our stay, the backup batteries for the solar panel system don't last too long). While the ocean breeze generally kept the place comfortable, there was a day or two when the breeze was inadequate. Overall, our stay was very enjoyable.

If "Exotic" resonates with you...

Very roomy with outstanding outdoor space topside on the roof, equipped for everything. Villa-Gravity is definitely in play here. The tremendous hosts have filled this wonderland with art, statuary and curiosities from Bali and SE Asia. A visual treat that brings a vibe that you won't find anywhere else on STJ. This place will not disappoint.

A wonderful relaxing stay

We were delighted with with our stay at Buddha Garden. The property has fantastic views of Coral Bay and the BVI. The sunrises are spectacular. The owners have created numerous private tranquil spaces. The house is furnished with fascinating Asian art. The owners are friendly and accessible without being intrusive. Coral Bay with a nice selection of restaurants and a couple of markets was a short drive. Salt Pond Bay was nearby. If you enjoy hike the Ram’s Head Trail which begins at Salt Pond was a little challenging in spots, but offered exercise and beautiful vistas. We look forward to our next stay!

Outstanding in Every Way, Do Not Hesitate to Book This Property

I found this property by complete luck when booking a last minute trip to St. John. I was a little concerned at first because I did not really know the island and there were so many great places and areas to stay on St. John and St. Thomas. After seeing quite a lot of both islands on my trip I can say without a doubt that this was the best possible choice that I could have made. Absolutely everything about the property, the hosts and the area were outstanding and exceeded expectations in every way. You absolutely will not regret your choice. Staying here made my trip unforgettable and I am looking forward to returning very soon.

Another Fabulous Stay

This was the third time my wife and I stayed at Buddha Garden over the past five years. I have to say the house gets better every time! At night all you hear is the trade-winds and the croaking geckos. You wake up to the sun rising through the port-hole windows and fall asleep watching the stars. Everything about this house just oozes relaxation. At night, we sat atop the amazing rooftop deck gazing across the boundless ocean. All the while watching the passing sail boats and shooting stars; discovering constellations you would never be able to see in the brightness of the city. Ric and Lolita were as good of hosts as you could imagine. We plan to return again next year and start taking in the zen all over...

Incredible stay on St.John at Buddha Garden

First, I want to say how wonderful the island of St.John is for a relaxing vacation. Now the only way to improve on this was to find a place as special as St.John and we did! Buddha Garden is decorated in exotic Asian decor that was purchased by the owners on their many trips abroad. It is better than the pictures and at the end of the road so it is very private. There are two large bedrooms with attached bathrooms with walk-in showers, a great kitchen with a koi pond outside, a living room area, many neat dining areas and places to read including the roof deck. Good for yoga too. The views are something truly special. You look out on several of the British Virgin Islands, the east end of St.John and a beautiful bay below where you can hear the waves. There is always a great breeze too. We rented a jeep to travel to the numerous beaches and could not believe all the sea life we saw. No jet skiing so very relaxing. The owners Lolita and Ric were extremely helpful and answered any questions we had. We wish we had had a chance to talk to them about all their travels. Lolita provided us with a list of less known places to snorkel, their favorite places to eat and where to grocery shop. There is a market a few miles away (Lily's Gourmet Market) that had all we needed, we did shop once in town (Starfish) too. When we ate out the food was wonderful (Shipwreck, Skinny Legs...) and the servings were large so we made two meals from most places. Before coming we read about it being expensive to buy food and eat out but when you consider there is no sales tax or resort tax it worked out about the same as other island trips we have made. I saw on another review were some people stayed with out a jeep and you could do that but for us it was much easier to have transportation. My husband went into town twice to go out scuba diving (Low Key- which he said was the best group he has ever dove with) and we could go places when ever we wanted. We spent a great day on the "Baddy Kitty" that took us to several BVI (you need your passport) to swim, eat and have a drink. It could not have been a better trip. Like islands in the Caribbean in St.John you should be conscious about saving water and there is a water collection system at this home. I wish I could upload some of my pictures to better show Buddha Garden and it's views. We are hopeful to return again to say at this beautiful home.

Just what I needed!

I was looking for somewhere quiet to get some rest and this was exactly what was needed. Ric and Lolita have done a great job of making this place very serene and have lots of places outside to just chill.

Beautiful hideaway

Ric and Emily have created an amazing space at Orchid Garden. It is definitely off the beaten path (about a 45 min drive into Cruz Bay) but so worth it if that's what you're looking for. There is only air conditioning in the master bedroom (I did not read the "details" section), but with the lovely breeze and fans, it's comfortable. You cannot flush toilet paper - but we found out that's pretty common all over the island - just something to get used to. Overall, it was a fabulous stay. Emily was great about communicating with us and let us know that she and Ric were right downstairs if we needed anything. We loved the hermit crabs, lizards, beautiful plants, and amazing rooftop for stargazing. Would highly recommend!
