About this property

Cruz Bay 1 Bdrm Condo w/Generator Just Steps from Frank Bay, Easy Walk into Town

Our St John condo is a wonderful, 1bedroom, 1 bath vacation rental conveniently located just steps from Cruz Bay on a quiet residential street just past Gallows Point Resort with great breezes and water views. Frank Bay Beach is just around the corner and the sunsets are amazing from here! Our condo has Caribbean inspired colors and amenities, perfect for adults, honeymooners or couples with all the comforts of home with a little more privacy and affordability than St John hotels or resorts.

With 10' high ceilings, cool tiled floor, and ocean views are a welcoming island retreat. Villa La Mer has air conditioning, and fans throughout with regular tradewinds.

Step from the living room or bedroom onto our large porch with an outdoor teak dining table, lounge chairs, an island inspired hammock, and electric BBQ grill. The porch overlooks the shared (with four other condos) pool and some of the best sweeping views of the Caribbean and other islands, and of course sunsets you will forever remember.

The spacious living room has a floor to ceiling bookshelf, TV, & CD Player, and we have WiFi.

Our kitchen is well stocked by my mother (a Southern cook!) , so you should have everything you need to fix an elaborate meal or blend your favorite island concoctions.

The property is beautifully landscaped with year-round blossoming plants and you will absolutely love the large pool that is privately shared with the other four units on the property.

Our condo is very well maintained and our Welcome Team will also be available if have any questions about the condo.

We hope you enjoy our island home away from home.

***La Mer is not available from mid-August until the first week in October.

Great Location for Relaxing Vaca

We were greeted by a host when we arrived, which was a great touch to make us feel comfortable. Location was within walking distance of Cruz Bay, which was also very nice since we did not have to worry about parking. Loved the porch overlooking ocean with hammock. Beaches are a close drive away. We appreciated having a cooler and beach chairs provided for our beach excursions.

A excellent place to stay in Cruz Bay

The apartment was very comfortable, with a large balcony and dining table, hammock, etc. offering a great view. The complex pool was very nice on a hot day. A short walk along the beach to restaurants, bars, and the dolphin market for provisions as well as the ferry dock and national park visitors center.

American Paradise

The views from the villa are gorgeous, and the accessibility to town perfect. The villa is fully equipped. It is a testament to St. John charm and comfort. The island itself is spectacular, easy to navigate by car and the islanders are beyond friendly, kind and helpful. We wish we could stay here longer. God willing, we will return. Good vibes.

100% would stay again

The location of the condo is perfect for a walk into town. Parking in Cruz Bay is very difficult, so having the ability to walk into town was key!! The physical space in the condo was perfect for us. One bedroom, one bath, the "one fanny" kitchen (it's pretty narrow- only one person at a time!), and great living space inside and out. We appreciated Patty meeting us for check-in, as well as the wonderful communication prior. Loved the pool and the view. Could not have found a more perfect spot for a week in St. John.

La Mer

La Mer was an absolutely perfect villa to stay in on St. John. It was well equipped, very clean and perfectly located to walk to restaurants, bars, shopping, the ferry and the grocery store. We very much enjoyed BBQing on the balcony and swimming in the shared pool! We definitely would stay at La Mer again when we return to St. John.

Perfect Condo in Town

My boyfriend and I loved our stay at Villa de Mer. It was a classic and adorable condo with everything we could have needed. We enjoyed watching the stars from the porch hammock every night. The location is perfect for walking into town and the property manager was warm and wonderful. I've visited St. John many times - usually staying in villas or private homes outside of town - and was worried about losing privacy with an in-town stay but couldn't have been happier with our week!

Can’t wait to book again!

My husband and I spent a week vacationing in St John for our anniversary and had a great experience here! Adele and Patti were so welcoming and made everything so easy for us. Our favorite things: - The property is just a short walk to Cruz Bay. - The pool is private, quiet and so refreshing for an afternoon dip after the beach. - The deck is perfect for coffee and breakfast in the morning or watching the sunset in the evening. We can’t say enough good things about this property and look forward to booking again in the future!

Villa La Mer is Magical

Patti and Villa La Mer help make our trip amazing! Patti was amazingly accommodating in meeting us to check in, escorted us through a great walkthrough of the condo and pool, and provided an indepth guide for all amenities in St. John. The condo was clean with an amazing view. It is conveniently close to Cruz Bay restaurants, although it is at the top of a steep hill. There is parking in front of the location, complimentary toiletries, and an incredible balcony with an exceptional view. Thank you for helping make our trip for our sister's wedding magical.

Beautiful, convenient place in Cruz Bay

This is a really bright, comfortable, and pleasant place within easy walking distance of central Cruz Bay. We stayed here in 2015, when it was surrounded by construction and lacked air conditioning. With the construction noise gone and the installation of air conditioning (which we only used in the bedroom at night), the villa is now top-notch. There are still roosters, but being able to close windows and use AC meant they weren't an issue. Patti was communicative and accommodating, and check-in and -out were straightforward. I don't have anything to add from the other reviews other than to agree with them (except to say that we found the bed perfectly comfortable and not hard at all).

Lovely La Mer

The La Mer condo is lovely—a perfect blend of bright open space and cozy comfort, and it's filled with beautiful seaside decor and art. The large veranda adds a very special bonus. I can’t imagine staying anywhere else on a return trip to St. John. La Mer is in a perfect spot for visiting this island. It’s a short walk to Cruz Bay for shops, restaurants, the ferry, and taxis that will go anywhere on St. John, including beaches. Also close by is the National Park Center and some of its walking trails. In addition, communication with Adele and Patti before and during the stay was welcoming and efficient.
