About this property
EPIC views from every room! Large 2-Bed, 2-Bath with AC and Solar!
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! Power to the house is rarely interrupted!
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 is 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 because we love the villa as is!
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.

This was our third time to stay here. David was so helpful and had thought of everything. We know when we stay here it will be an enjoyable experience. The property is always clean and the kitchen is well stocked. The view is amazing! This property is convenient to all beaches and restaurants are nearby. We will be back again! Thank you Lois and David!

Thanks so much for your kind review! And thanks for returning to Villa Celeste. We truly appreciate you.
This villa is absolutely stunning and perfect. Incredibly clean with every amenity you will need and more. The owners are incredibly responsive. The views are sensational. We have also stayed in the villa above and it was just as beautiful. We will definitely visit again.

Beautiful views, well appointed villa. Excellent support from property manager and excellent communication with host. Villa is very private and yet nearly all beaches accessible-most within 20-30 min drive. Recommend a six cylinder vehicle to more easily navigate some of the VERY steep hills on the island. Would stay again! Thank you for sharing your lovely villa!

Absolutely beautiful house, very well laid out with bedrooms w/ their own bathroom on either side of the home. The deck was large with a stunning view of Coral Bay. A short, beautiful drive to several amazing beaches.

This was our second stay at this beautiful villa, and it was just as amazing as the first! Returning here felt like coming home. The villa is impeccably clean, beautifully maintained, and has everything you need for a comfortable and relaxing vacation.The views are absolutely breathtaking and never get old. We enjoyed our mornings with coffee overlooking the island and our evenings taking in the incredible sunsets. The location is perfect, peaceful and private.The host continues to be exceptional. Communication was excellent, and they go above and beyond to make sure every stay is enjoyable and stress-free.There's a reason we came back a second time, and we hope it won't be our last. If you're looking for an unforgettable place to stay in St. John, we can't recommend this villa highly enough. It's truly a special place that keeps us coming back.

The view from this villa is fantastic, and even more so at sunrise. The villa was the perfect setup for two couples and was clean and comfortable with a very well stocked kitchen. We enjoyed the use of the provided beach chairs, cooler, towels, noodles, and all the other little extras.The host Lois and David, the manager, were very responsive and provided lots of good info and a recommended sailing charter which we thoroughly enjoyed. Upon booking, I thought the location could possibly be inconvenient, but it wasn’t. There are grocery stores and some restaurants nearby and accessing hiking trails and the beautiful beaches was not a problem.We had a nice stay in Coral Bay at this villa. We had no issues and would definitely stay again.

Joan, thank you so much for your kind review. I'm so glad that the villa provided everything you need and that you discovered how wonderful it is to stay in Coral Bay. Much closer to the beaches than Cruz Bay! We hope to see you again. Lois
Great property with the highlights being the outstanding view and the small extras that make a difference. Extras like…A great water filter that allowed us to refill water bottles to take with us daily on our beach/trail excursions.Beach chairs. Beach towels. Coolers. Beach bags. Things that make outings easier.The kitchen was also well equipped.David, the property manager, was great to deal with and eager to help with any questions or concerns that came up.Also a great location in relation to the shops and great restaurants of Coral Bay.Like most driveways and parking situations in St. John, this one is tight and a little tricky if there are guests in the other unit that is on the property (units are separate..other one was occupied during our stay and other than the car in the driveway, we would have never known anyone was even there). Just be smart when positioning your vehicle.Lastly…..It’s a great price for the quality of the villa you receive.

Beautiful spacious home with gorgeous views. The deck had plenty of space for us to relax and enjoy the view of Coral bay and surrounding islands. Everything we needed for our beach days was included with the home. We would definitely rent this home again!

We absolutely loved our stay at the Villa in Coral Bay. The absolute best views!! The villa was clean and had everything we needed. Loved having beach chairs/towels provided. I'm already dreaming of going back. Close proximity to a few really good restaurantes (Johnny lime is amazing, skinny legs good bar food), and Calabash market (we bought fresh fish and grilled it at the villa). 10/10 would recommend staying here!
Villa Celeste Paradis was a dream! The views are stunning, beautifully decorated. The property was immaculate and amenities were abundant. We would definitely recommend!

My husband and I have traveled the world (including 6 continents) and St John is our happy place. We purchased the land in 2001 and built in 2010. We hope you enjoy our slice of heaven as much as we do!
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!
