The property has 4 private individual villas each with breathtaking views of the bay. The Coral Studio is located right on a stretch of a secluded beach in the world-famous Magens Bay. This private St. Thomas vacation villa rental offers a world of natural beauty and serenity to discerning travelers. Nestled amid lush vibrant flowers and tropical trees with an enormous vista of shimmering bay waters right at your disposal, this is the perfect oasis for discovering the true meaning of a Caribbean paradise. In addition to the peaceful seclusion provided by the villa, guests will find the vibrant nightlife, charming boutiques, and fine dining restaurants of St. Thomas just twenty minutes away from home. Whatever brings you to St. Thomas, once you stay with us you will join the many number of our guests who return and tell their friends and relatives, "Stay at Villa Eau Claire. It was extraordinary."
This villa measures 800 square feet and is situated at a small elevation just above the sandy beach, accessible via a short stairway. Inside a spacious living room has been comfortably furnished for leisurely afternoons spent indoors, and a kitchenette has been well-equipped for your convenience which includes a mini refrigerator. A spacious deck runs the length of the unit, offering premier al fresco living/dining experiences – especially beautiful when the sun sets each night.
This is our Coral "Studio" Villa and can accommodate 2 people comfortably. This studio features a plush king bed and a large living area.
Villa Eau Claire has undergone recent renovations to the property. Freshly painted, beautiful new landscaping, outdoor lighting, and new decor make this villa relaxing and enjoyable. The villas are large and inviting and the bedrooms private and peaceful. Once you have experienced this idyllic location you will return year after year. The warm Caribbean breezes that gently blow through each villa make air conditioning unnecessary.

Quiet Getaway!

This is a great place to stay for couples. Very clean with water access that is amazing. Fun to watch the pelicans, sea turtles, and fish. Snorkeling is great. Rick is very friendly and having a new deck built which will be great in the future. You should not hesitate to book it! :)

Amazing get away

We stayed in the one bedroom efficiency, which was perfect for my husband and I. Property was as advertised very clean excellent view short drive to Megans bay. Saint Thomas has so much to offer. For the two weeks we were there, we were going and doing something new nearly every day. Amazing restaurants on the island. It was a blast.

HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE

EXPECT ZERO SLEEP HERE at all, because the owner lives in the condo above and his floor/ your ceiling is super thin… You will hear all the stomping, every flush, sneeze, conversation, every yelling argument. You will only have enough silence to sleep from 3am to 6am. Almost NO WIFI OR INTERNET CONNECTION AT ALL, zero. CRAZY AMOUNT OF MOSQUITOS that wont let you sleep, because the front door is broken with huge gaps that allows all kinds of mosquitos and other animals in like bees, no matter how much you fumigate the holes will bring the forest IN. WINDOW CURTAINS ARE BROKEN and therefore you cannot block the sunlight so be prepared to have ZERO sleep after sunrise 6am. CHECK IN and CHECK OUT is TERRIBLE... you will need to carry your own bags down and up for your check out a very steep sloped dangerously slippery hill 3 blocks down with no help and then down and up broken slippery stairs which are a dangerous hazard. Owner hired contractors that make all kinds of noise while you are in property all throughout the day and given there were no curtains be you have zero privacy. After paying a hefty cleaning fee, you're still expected to climb up your own garbage 15 blocks away from property, to the garbage center!! NOT ENOUGH HOT WATER - Only enough for one 5 min shower for one person, not 2. MINI FRIDGE LIKE A HOTEL - No real refrigerator big enough for food past 2 days. I would have loved to recommend this property because I travel the world professionally and have done so for over 28 years, working with hundreds of companies and thousands of people... However I am known for being 100% truthful to my 2.4 million + followers, so I don't want to let them be fooled by misleading pictures and videos. If you want a full video of everything I described, I will be happy to send it.

Paradise found!

What an amazing location! This is our 2nd time staying at the Villa Eau Claire, but we rented a different villa. It was just as magical the 2d time around. We snorkeled with sea turtles and even saw a flowery founder and tarpons right by the private beach. We sat on the deck and watched dive bombing pelicans. It was a magical 5 days. We’ll be back!

St. Thomas Gem

Wow. What an outstanding property on Peterborg Peninsula on the isle of St. Thomas. Multi-Million dollar vistas abound from the balconies overlooking Megan's Bay. The area is very safe (gated), quiet, and central to explore all parts of the island via day trips. The stairway leading to the semi-private beach was easily traversed and safe. The beach is small, but you can easily wade to Little Megan's Beach or wade further to Megan's beach. The beach, views, and the pristine water was the highlight of our stay. We will always remember enjoying morning coffee on the spacious balcony watching the local fisherman net their catch and observing the Pelicans dive for their breakfast. There are 3-4 villas on the property with a shared laundry facility, so there will be minimal other guests on property. Our villa was well equipped and well appointed for our one week stay. We didn't need AC, but it was available. We highly recommend staying at this beautiful property. We will be back for sure. Thanks Rick and Chris for hosting us. We will certainly tell all our friends to make accommodations with you.
