About this property

SPECTACULAR views from every room! Very large 2-Bed, 2-Bath with AC.

Open your door to breathtaking views of Sir Francis Drake Channel, the Caribbean and the luscious valley of Coral Bay. Perfect for a small family or two couples looking for an amazing island experience. This villa is built for your comfort and will leave you with sweet memories for a lifetime. Set among beautiful flowers, palm and bay trees, this roomy 1700 square foot villa includes 10-foot ceilings and large mahogany doors leading out to a covered deck.

IMPORTANT: Villa Celeste Paradis has solar batteries and Tesla power walls for electrical back-up!

Villa Celeste Paradis includes two large bedrooms, each with its own bath. The beds are situated to wake up and enjoy breathtaking sunrises and 9-foot doors leading out to the deck. There is plenty of storage and closet space so unpack those suitcases! You'll find everything you need in two large bathrooms with two vanities and walk-in showers with views. Best of all, both bedrooms include air conditioning units as well as in the main living area. This is very important for those hotter summer months.
The living area includes generous seating and a smart television to access Netflix and many more apps. Other amenities include a desk, Bluetooth speaker, several USB chargers and reliable WIFI.
You’ll also have your own washer and dryer so don’t bother bringing lots of luggage! Everything you need for your beach days, are supplied. You'll find beach towels, beach chairs, backpack and coolers.
The kitchen! All the amenities you need for enjoying a meal at home. It includes a generous fridge with AN ICE-MAKER, dishwasher, stove and microwave. Enjoy your meals inside around a generous hardwood table or dine alfresco as you watch Coral Bay’s reverse sunsets and frequent rainbows.
You'll enjoy laid-back Coral Bay where you'll experience island life with quaint gift shops, live music and, incredible restaurants. AND, only 10 minutes away, you'll find the legendary white powder beaches of the North Shore. For the more adventurous, head to the South Shore beaches and hiking trails for a completely different experience. Your view includes Hurricane Hole, a Coral Reef National Monument, the only habitat of its kind in the Northern Hemisphere.

IMPORTANT: For some odd reason, Vrbo has listed there is a fenced private pool. There isn't anything online allowing me to delete this so I'm waiting for the "tech team" to fix this error. My apologies if there is any misunderstanding.

Please note this villa was originally part of a larger villa that was to have a second floor, giving it a flat roof. Life happens and we've decided not to build.

Note: there is another 1-bedroom villa on the same property in which you'll share the driveway and parking area but Villa Celeste Paradis is completely private and down the stairs to the left.
The other villa, Villa Celeste Vista, is a one-bedroom and is also available to rent. It can be found on VRBO under property #1137923. Please note that it's possible you will hear guests from the other villas in the neighborhood and throughout the Coral Bay valley, as it acts like an amphitheater. Also known to Coral Bay is how quiet it becomes after 10pm.

Villa Celeste Paradis is absolutely amazing! It was everything we could've imagined, and more. The views are incredible from every single room, and there's lots of wildlife around the villa. Lois and Driftwood Dave were very helpful, and they always responded really quickly. Grocery stores and restaurants were surprisingly close, only a few minutes drive from the villa. My husband and I fell in love with Salt Pond Beach, which was also close by. The water was nice and calm, and the snorkeling was amazing! If you're set on going to St. John, stop thinking about it and book Villa Celeste, now! You will not be disappointed!!!

Beautiful villa!

We have been to STJ many times and this was the most beautiful villa we have stayed in so far! The home itself was perfect for two couples, offering plenty of privacy. We loved the kitchen and prepared a few dinners and breakfasts there during our stay. I LOVED the sunrises and spent every single morning on the gorgeous patio watching them while drinking my coffee. Everything was provided that we needed. The manager was very communicative and there if we needed her for anything. When we come back to St John we will definitely try to stay here again!

Dream Honeymoon

My husband and I honeymooned on St. John and really enjoyed our stay at Villa Celeste Paradis! The views were incredible and we spent every evening on the back porch enjoying watching the moon rise over the horizon and stargazing. Worries and stress don’t exist at this place! It was so relaxing. We really liked staying on the Coral Bay side of the island and once we got the hang of the roads, we found it quite easy to get around. The villa had everything we needed; beach chairs, towels, bags, coolers, and a very thorough binder provided by the owner with recommendations for beaches, hikes, shopping, etc. It was super clean and most of all had the BEST air conditioning in the rooms. Would highly recommend this place to anyone wanting a peaceful retreat! We are already planning when to visit again!

Great views and furnishings

We enjoyed our stay at Villa Celeste. The rooms are comfortably and attractively furnished. We had everything we needed to cook meals. We felt very private despite the other villa on the site. The property manager was very responsive. The villa looked exactly as it did in the pictures. The beach chairs, towels and bag provided were much appreciated. The only item not mentioned in the description that is worth bringing up is that the air conditioners are in the bedrooms - not in the main area. We got enough ventilation in the evening with the fans, but when we were cooking it got a bit warm. The beds and furniture were very comfortable and the whole villa was very relaxing and lovely. We would stay here again!

Easy going on the east side.

We absolutely enjoyed our stay here. The east side of St John is quieter and provides a more natural setting to enjoy the island. From the incredible sunrises, views, sounds of nature; this house is the perfect place to soak in the St John vibe. It was an easy 20-30 minute drive to all the beaches and things to do. We had the grocery store and a few restaurants just a short drive down the mountain where we were created by goats, donkeys and a flock of sheep. We ate at Johnny Lime three times during our stay including Friday’s lobster night. The property was large enough to comfortably house two couples. It was very clean and passed my wife and MIL inspection. All the furniture was in good condition, comfortable and high quality. AC worked well when we used it at night. No need for AC during the day due to the nice breeze even in June. The views of Coral Bay, east side of St John, and Tortola BVI were incredible. We spent hours watching the tide, rain showers, and boats come in and out. The property manager Joy was incredible. There was a small inconvenience during our stay and she immediately took care of the issue. We also spend a day aboard the sailboat and she gave us a nice snorkeling tour of the Blue Hole. She then invited us to open mic night (she and Capt Rob help organize the event) at Ms Lucy’s which was a the taste of the local culture we were looking for. My MIL loved that experience and also Joy! We are already looking forward to coming back!!

Stunning views in Coral Bay!

This is our 2nd stay at this property and I almost don't want to tell people how great it is so I can keep it for myself. We love staying on the quieter side of the island in Coral Bay and this place is perfect. The amazing views of Coral Bay can be enjoyed from every room. You will arrive to a spotless clean place with thoughtful touches. The local house manager Joy is very helpful and responsive for any needs. She is great for advice for snorkeling, food, and more. The bathrooms are large and comfortable to share. The bedrooms are large with comfortable beds. Each room has an air conditioning unit that will cool the full house. St John is prone to periodic power outages and this place has a backup generator. Please note that it is a solar generator so may have limited capacity. Thankfully the outages are typically short. This property is within a 10-15 minute drive of many great beach locations. If you want to pop over to Cruz Bay, it is a pretty easy 30-35 minute drive. Take a chance and stay on the coral bay side - you won't regret it, especially at this wonderful place :)

Bucket List Vacation

My husband and I along with our adult son and his girlfriend had an awesome trip to St. John. It has been on my bucket list to visit St. John. Villa Celeste and the amazing view are just as described. The Villa was very clean and had everything one would need. The beds are sooo comfortable and the AC that we only used at night made sleeping a dream. Loved having beach towels, chairs, and a cooler available to use, which we definitely did. The guest guide book in the Villa is really helpful and appreciated. Lois, the property owner, is so personable, helpful and provided a ton of information that we found so useful. We loved Joy, the on island property manager. She is such a great resource and a true treasure. The highlight of the trip for all of us was the snorkeling/sailing adventure we took with Joy and Rob on their beautiful sailboat. Joy's guided snorkeling tour was excellent. She truly is the Mermaid of Coral Bay. Such great memories! Driving on the steep roads of St. John was an adventure in itself. An all-wheel or 4 wheel drive is a must especially if you venture onto the unpaved roads, which we found really fun. Although the driveway is quite steep, you get used to it after driving it a few times. The steep driveway is worth it to stay in such a beautiful villa with an unapparelled view. I would definitely stay at Villa Celeste if we return to St. John. Thank you Lois for sharing such a gem in Coral Bay.

Wonderful location and the best views from the bedrooms and deck! Waking up to a beautiful sunrise and having a wonderful view any time of day made this place special. Large kitchen with all the dishes and utensils needed to make any meal. We had a pearly eyed thrasher visit us on the deck daily. Close to restaurants and easy to get around the island.

Fantastic Stay in Coral Bay

This is a wonderful property in a beautiful location! Could not recommend this place and staying here more - quiet with amazing views of Coral Bay. Our family of three stayed here for six nights, and found the accommodations very spacious, with two bedrooms/bathrooms, large kitchen and living room, and a large balcony with plenty of furniture (and beautiful views!). So many useful amenities were provided: cookware, dishes, beach chairs and towels, cooler(s), washer and dryer, dishwasher, coffee maker, and more. This was a great location for everything that we wanted to do on the island: hiking trails - Ramhead, Reef Bay (we brought snorkel masks on the hikes to find amazing wildlife when swimming midway through), kayaking in Hurricane Hole, north shore beaches (Maho, Trunk Bay), and exploring the rest of the island. The drive from here to all of these places was not more than 15 minutes. There are a few nice places to get food in town, and a great clothing shop, Mumbo Jumbo. There are also a few markets as well (Dolphin, Love's, Calabash). Overall, this was a much more pleasant area to stay in by comparison to Cruz Bay - that was a bit too busy for us. Highly recommend staying at this beautiful property. We hope to visit again and will look to rebook the Villa Celeste!!

Perfect vacation spot

The house was a very comforable and well equipped. Joy, the propery mananger, was extremelly attentive to our questions. The location in Coral Bay was perfect to access local beaches and resturants. The Cantina, Salty Mongoose, and Skinney legs all within 5 to 10 minutes. We snorkled with Joy at hurricane hole. Great pictures of the reef and sea life. We also highly recommend Captain Clieve of Local Flavor Fishing charters. Caught yellow tail snapper and he filleted. I grilled the fish in tin foil with onions, green peppers, lime, butter, and seasoned fish with Paul Prodone seaford majik. They were delicious. I would highly recommend a stay.

This property is beautiful and the views are breathtaking. The host is very communicative and the house is well stocked. Perfect for 2-4 people.

Awesome property with a short trip to anywhere on the island. AC units worked great in the bedrooms. Evenings on the porch were the best time of day. Grocery shopping on St Thomas would help save money so maybe shop before you catch the ferry. All the beach accessories were awesome! Vacation of a lifetime!

Perfect island getaway with amazing view!!

I can't say enough great things about this property, and almost don't want to so I can keep this place to myself!! Lois was very communicative and helpful during the booking process and also provided some great advice on car rental booking (St. John Car Rental was great). The property manager Joy was also wonderful. She gave us a great introduction to the property and provided some recommendations on local restaurants. We also did a trip to Lime Out with Joy on her boat, and she made sure we had an excellent outing. The property itself has incredible views of Coral Bay - the photos cannot do it justice. The main living area and both bedrooms have balcony access, which is fantastic. The kitchen was well equipped and the living area was comfortable. Each bedroom and bathroom were spacious and clean. We also appreciated having access to beach towels, beach bags, etc to use for our beach trips. The air conditioning units in each bedroom kept the bedrooms nice and cool. We enjoyed every minute of our time in Coral Bay and at this property, and we hope to come back in the future. You will not regret staying here!!

Why they chose this property

We love the location of Villa Celeste Paradis for many reasons. First, the view. Second, the road is paved up to our driveway. Third, we love the Coral Bay community but most important, we love the quick drive to both the north and south shore beaches. You will too!
