Paradise at Sopra Mare

This villa was wonderful to stay in! It had everything needed to spend a relaxing vacation on the island of St. John. Just bring yourself, some clothes, food and everything else is there fully equipped for your use.

We had a wonderful stay and loved the view and proximity to Cruz Bay. The villa was well provisioned and the pool was excellent. Mike provided lots of helpful information before and during our stay. We did have an AC issue, but David the property manager stayed in communication and we were okay with the situation. Overall, we highly recommend Sopra Mare.

Wonderful villa with outstanding views

We had a wonderful stay at Sopra Mare. The views are outstanding - can see both the sunrise and sunset from the balcony. The villa was equipped to meet all our needs, including a standby generator which came in handy since we lost power in multiple occasions. We look forward to returning!

I would like to first state; we had a terrific time, we stayed 9 days and could have stayed 9 more. The view from the outside decks were breathtaking. Now the home. The home is extremely well maintained. Fresh paint inside and out. Moderately decorated with just the right number of “beachy” accessories and pictures. (not gaudy). What we were happy and amazed about right as we walked in was just how clean the windows were. Most home that we rent, they never remember the windows. (what a shame, people come for the view).The kitchen was supplied with every appliance and cooking utensil that we needed during our stay. Most of these looked almost new.The bed and pillows along with the linens were very comfortable and so were the sofa and chairs.Now for the saltwater pool! I would have to say we spent at least 50% of our time in the pool. It was so relaxing and immaculately taken care of.One thing I would advise anyone who stays on St. Johns, bring a lot of mosquito protection.

Quiet and Gorgeous Views

The neighborhood is one of the more established and well kept neighborhoods. Minutes from the car ferry and Cruz Bay makes this property the ideal for all access to grocery stores, gym, beaches and night life on the town. This was definitely a beautiful well kept place with friendly people.

Lovely Villa

Great property. We loved being able to open the doors and windows and let the warm breezes blow through. The kitchen was well provisioned and easy to work in. The villa is well laid out with multiple seating options depending on whether you want sun or shade. There were expansive ocean views and beautiful sunsets most nights. We'll be happy to stay there again.

A wonderful getaway

We enjoyed a week of decompression at Sopra Mare enjoying the views from the deck and the sand of the nearby beaches. The Sopra Mare had everything we needed to enjoy evenings at “home.” We’re just not into the eat-out scene. The Sopra Mare delivered.

Edge of Paradise

Sopra Mare was all it is described as and more. Great home in a great location and even better views. Quiet neighborhood where all you hear is tropical breezes blowing and the crashing of the waves on the rocks below. Perfect place to sit and watch and listen and take your mind off the world back home. This was our first trip to St. John and we definitely hope to return soon.

Thanks Jeff For your kind words- from the time I built it now more than a decade ago, sitting on that deck late at night was more therapeutic than a hour with a physiotherapist. Especially when I had a Heineken in hand! Mulley

We just returned from Sop...

We just returned from Sopra Mare after a 10 day stay and are ready to return! This villa was a wonderful find...a beautiful property in a great location. The owner provided lots of amenities like beach chairs, coolers and beach towels which allowed us to settle in quickly and really enjoy our stay. Beautiful views of sunrise, sunset, sailboats and cruise ships...not to mention the beautiful night sky. Lots of windows and lovely furnishings throughout. So nice, it's hard to leave, but so nice to return to after a day of island exploration. We highly recommend Sopra Mare and hope to return.

Comfortable and Clean Villa with Amazing Views

What a beautiful villa! We loved every second our vacation on St John. The villa has everything you could need, and the views and pool are the highlights! The furniture and decor are tasteful and the villa is clean and comfortable. Our mornings were spent on the balcony sipping coffee watching the sunrise. Days were spent beach hopping. Preparing for our beach days away from the villa was easy since the beach chairs and coolers are provided at Sopra Mare. The location is convenient to getting to Cruz Bay for dinner or happy hour. The markets and Sam and Jacks Deli are also nearby for picking up grocery items or lunch. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again and would recommend it to anyone looking for a wonderful stay on St John. The owner Mike and his team on St John are professional and easy to work with too! Hope to be back soon!

Quiet Waterfront Villa

We had a wonderful 9 day stay at Sopra Mare. Mike, the owner was always there to answer any questions we had prior to our arrival. David, the villa manager, met as at the car rental. We followed David to the villa where he showed us how and where everything was. We have visited St. John many times, but always stayed on St Thomas. Dinner, salad and wine was provided for us on the first day of our arrival on St Thomas. The villa has everything you need to enjoy your stay in paradise. We didn’t do anything but hit a different beach every day. Grocery stores are close by. Be prepared for sticker shock!! Hopeful we will be able to return in the future. Thanks Mike for sharing your piece of paradise

Sunny days

The condo sits high on cliff with a wonderful view . We enjoyed the breeze at all times of the day it made sitting at the pool enjoyable , very peaceful . The beds in both bedrooms are comfortable . The kitchen had everything you needed to prepare meal is , there is even a nice grill outside . There was beach chairs and snorkel gear which was perfect for us since we spent most of our time exploring the beaches . We would definitely stay here again. The host is attentive and has already thought of helpful information pertaining to grocery delivery service or if you need help finding your condo after getting off the ferry. All you have to do ask !

Great view, great place

The owner (Michael) and staff (Keri, Jared, Kevin) were outstanding in communication which made for a great experience. We understand why it's rented so often with the view and private pool. Short drive to town and groceries. We rented a car from Mr Pipers and they allowed to park there while we were in town. Otherwise, very expensive. We had a couple of maintenance problems that were quickly handled. Otherwise, a 5 star stay.
