4 King Suites! South Shore Views! 24/7 Concierge Service! Cruz Bay 5 Min Drive!
L'Esprit De La Vie is an exquisitely appointed villa that evokes the best of both worlds: European elegance combined with Caribbean indoor/outdoor living. This sprawling estate has mesmerizing ocean views from every room, patio and shower! (Though we think the view is best enjoyed while taking a dip in the infinity swimming pool.) Every bedroom includes a king-sized bed, en-suite bathroom, A/C bedrooms and TV. There’s a gourmet kitchen and formal dining table, but for al-fresco dining there’s a grill and outdoor seating in the beautiful garden patio, complete with a lily pond and waterfall. The concierge team is accessible 24/7!
Perched on a hillside overlooking Rendezvous Bay is an opulent European-inspired villa called L’Esprit De La Vie. Outside, you’ll find stone walkways lined with beautifully-maintained tropical gardens, spacious patios, and a long, covered veranda with majestic stone archways. There are comfortable furnishings and lounge chairs for relaxing in the breeze over a tropical drink. The villa enjoys an unobstructed 180-degree vista of the Caribbean Sea and the island of St. Croix.
The crescent-shaped infinity pool offers a refreshing front row seat to one of the best views on the island. At night, cut the lights and be starstruck!
You’d be hard-pressed to find a more elegant space than the great room, with its wooden cathedral ceiling, iron chandelier, and brick archways. But it has all the comforts of home, with plenty of reading nooks and comfortable seating for watching DVDs or satellite TV, and enjoying the SONOS sound system. Large glass doors afford a panoramic view of the sea and can be opened for indoor/outdoor living.
The expansive gourmet kitchen with granite counters and high-end appliances promises to fulfill all of your culinary needs. If you’d prefer to hire a private chef during your stay, St. John Concierge Service can easily arrange that for you (see below). There’s a breakfast bar for casual dining and a large dining table for formal meals. If you like to dine al-fresco, the garden patio has outdoor seating and a professional gas grill. With its tropical landscaping, bubbling lily pond and a waterfall feature built right into the rocky hillside, the patio is truly a sanctuary.
All four bedrooms are equally-sized, spacious master suites featuring king-sized beds (two of which are canopy) and luxury bedding. They include ocean views, en-suite bathrooms with double vanities and large walk-in showers, satellite televisions, DVD players, and A/C units. There is a washer/dryer on site for your convenience.
Please note...while the pool is fully functional the "hot tub" has been discontinued since 2017. Due to the original design it can not be removed. Thank you for understanding!

Fantastic Stay at this property! We had a group of friends gather for a birthday celebration and the house and hosts were so accommodating! The house and pool was amazing. The hosts helped with setting up transportation, and groceries throughout our stay and checked in on us via text/email from time to time to make sure we had everything we needed! Amazing. We'll be back.

Our family had the perfect vacation in St John! Beautiful beaches, great snorkeling and a lovely home! Drew handled our every need and went above and beyond. Met us at the ferry dock with our rental cars, arranged boat outings, sunset sails you name it! Thank you Drew!

We had a wonderful time in St John! The rental was exactly as described and it worked out perfectly for 4 couples. The amenities were great and the views from the pool were spectacular. Drew and Allison were great to work with. They were very helpful and always just a phone call away. We would highly recommend this location for others and plan to come back in the future!

This place was absolutely amazing! The view was enough to just be still and relax. You didn't need to go anywhere. Drew was great with providing information with local things to see, jeep rentals, restaurants, and the house had everything you needed like beach chairs, towels, sunscreen, floats, etc.
The vegetation, and creatures that lived on the premises were so beautiful and really added to the vibe of the house.

We enjoyed the privacy that the separate bedrooms provided, the serenity of the pool, the peace and quiet of the location, and the beauty of our natural surroundings. Drew was amazingly attentive and quick to act on both questions prior to our arrival as well as any needs once we arrived. He even knew when our flight had landed and called to check in to make sure we were in good shape. He definitely made things easy! We would definitely love to stay here again!

Overall great experience. The property could use new glasses and dishes as they are getting pretty worn. Layout of the villa was perfect for my family group of 4 adults, 2 teens, one child and an almost 2 year old. View is amazing and location is convenient to get wherever we needed to go.
Drew, the property manager, was great to work with and made the trip that much better. He helped with all the logistics of getting there, rental vehicles, snorkeling gear, restaurant reservations and recommendations, and the logistics of getting out when leaving. Drew was always available and responsive and helpful.

Great views and great set up for 4 couples
We had the pleasure of staying 9 nights in this villa. The set up is great with a centrally located living area and bedrooms privately situated on the ends of the upper and lower level. The den kitchen area is large and the 6 of us had plenty of space to move around without bumping into one another. Each bathroom window overlooked the amazing ocean view. The pool and Hottub also overlook the ocean and are situated perfectly to soak while watching the sunset.
We liked the location as it was close to town, but also close to 104 if you wish to jump over to coral bay.
Drew the house manager is very easy to work with while going through the rental process as well as during our stay. It’s amazing the house fared so well during the hurricanes. We drove by several villas we’ve rented in the past and most were heavily damaged.
I wouldn’t hesitate to rent through Drew or rent this villa again in the future.

This has been our second stay at this home. We absolutely love it and will be returning, again! Everything is always so easy and flawless… we’ve used Drew several times from houses, jeep rentals, boat trips, restaurant suggestions and so many more things im probably forgetting! We’ve been visiting STJ for the last 10 years, this is the first time we’ve stayed at a house twice as we enjoy different parts of the island, experiences and just trying something new! This is our favorite house!!! The view alone is worth its weight in gold. All of the bedrooms & bathrooms are very spacious and well equipped. There are 3 areas for outdoor dining and lounging, which were well used. Great pool for the kids and it’s safe (elderly parents) for everyone to get around. We always do a few large dinners with a chef and or we cook and our friends that travel with us, we all fit well and are comfortable. I’m super excited to book this home for next year and our third trip. The jeep we rented from him also, seemed brand new but when asking if it was new, we actually learned it was a year old, so I was impressed how clean it was and how well taken care of. They picked us up from the ferry, took us home and all of our groceries were put away. Theres nothing that makes my kids happier than a full fridge of food from home (and cold beverages ready for parents)!
Highly highly recommend Drew & his company. He’s funny, prompt, professional and has great communication, his houses are amazing!! 11/10
“Multimillion Dollar” Fixer-Upper - In need of repairs, new appliances and new property mgmt
This is the first time we’ve written a negative review after years of using VRBO for our vacation rentals. Unfortunately, the home was misrepresented so we felt it necessary to share our experience.
When we arrived, we were informed that the Jacuzzi spa was and had been inoperable for some time. We were also informed the ice-maker wasn’t functioning, however they did provide 1 bag of ice. The host pointed out a damaged screen door (unsuccessfully repaired with duct tape) and told us to be careful to not cause further damage to it. During our stay, we discovered many, many more (undisclosed) issues, including:
1/ Broken dishwasher: The wheels & brackets on the upper rack were broken, which caused the rack to fall to the ground when we placed fragile dishware on it. Fortunately, my wife caught the falling rack and we didn’t have to deal with broken glasses. A few days later, the dishwasher stopped operating completely, at which point mgmt replaced it.
2/ Broken fridge: The fridge leaked water onto the floor around it, creating a slipping hazard. Additionally, the freezer didn’t keep items frozen.
3/ Broken glass door: The downstairs bedroom’s glass door was cracked with spider fractures that stretched the width of it. This is a safety hazard.
4/ Broken window: The primary bathroom window could not be closed due to broken & rusted brackets, letting mosquitoes/bugs in.
5/ Non-working pool lights, which is a safety hazard for night swimming.
We decided to relocate to another home due to these undisclosed issues. Bret, our concierge, offered to refund us for the remainder of our stay, but stipulated reimbursement would be BY PERSONAL CHECK ONLY. Our request to be reimbursed via an immediate credit on the card used or PayPal/Venmo was rejected, which made us question whether the check would clear.
We made a point to leave the home in immaculate condition - washing/folding towels, stripping the beds, and emptying the dishwasher in an effort to help housekeeping. We’d vacated the home well before 10 AM, but didn’t pull out of the driveway until 10:09 AM because we needed to reinstall our JEEP’s removable roof. We were notified minutes later that, because we’d been in the DRIVEWAY at 10 AM, the refund offer was void. It appears mgmt staked out the property – quite the check-out experience.
Stay away from this host until repairs are completed, and the house is restored to the “million dollar” condition depicted here.
This property was awesome, looks incredible in pictures and honestly is even better in person , we loved the location, view, pool , openness , the 4 separate bedrooms work perfect for our group . Great property. We will be back !!

This was the perfect place for our group of adult couples to hang out. We of course enjoyed the island but also loved our time at the house with the pool, well appointed kitchen, indoor and outdoor living areas. The pool has a gorgeous panoramic view and we even saw some whales. Drew is highly accessible and knowledgable - such a great trip!
This is an absolutely beautiful villa with a great scenic view. One of my favorite memories will be hanging out in the pool and watching the beautiful sunsets after soaking up the sun and snorkeling. Drew was very attentive and personable and made this trip incredibly easy! Highly recommended!!!
Our family chose Point Rendezvous in STJ to celebrate several milestones including our daughter’s 30th birthday and we can’t wait to return next December! The villa is spectacular and is perfect for adults traveling together, as it has 4 separate master suites and a large common area with plenty of seating. Our favorite place to gather was on the covered porch with views too beautiful to describe! Our host, Drew, was terrific and helpful since this was our first visit to the island. He arranged for a boat charter, for snorkeling gear to be delivered, recommended eateries, and even located a chef to prepare a special dinner. As you can tell, our experience at Point Rendezvous was beyond perfect and our next visit will be too!

Had an outstanding time. House and view were exceptional. Commuting into Cruz Bay was relatively easy and quick. Drew, our property manager, was very helpful, courteous, and timely in his responses. Would definitely consider coming back here for future visits and would highly recommend the property to others. We have stayed in other residences several times over the past few years and this ranks as one of the best.

Drew; our contact/ concierge, made a huge difference compared to other houses
We enjoyed our stay soo much, we’re surprised we didn’t have this support before. House - impeccable, view best of all and service - more than we needed. We’ve been in St. John’s more than 12 times; this beats it. Being on an island where you know no one,, it it’s a premium yo have 24/7 assistance with any problem, or wish you may have. L’Esprit was a wonderful experience!! Loved the view, facilites and assistance; jeep rentals, paddle boards, fishing outing!!! It felt like home!! Never will ho at it by ourselves!!! Great experience

This home is magnificent! The four master suites, all accessed from the veranda and pool deck, were fabulous and comfortable. The veranda is so nice to be able to sit outside, talk, read, or just enjoy the view.

Our family of 5 stayed here the week after Christmas and had an awesome time. Everything is as listed. Drew, the concierge, is the best i have ever encountered. He stayed in constant contact with us and was incredibly helpful before and during our stay. Previously we have stayed on the East End and this time we really enjoyed being closer to town. The house sits just above Southside road and even though there is not a lot traffic, there is more road noise than we expected. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay.
