About this property

Searenity Villa in Cruz Bay with private pool and sunset view

Searenity Villa is located on a quiet hill within two miles to town. The property is gated for maximum privacy with view of Caribbean blue water and surrounding cays. You will enjoy waking up to sunrise and watch a beautiful sunset in the afternoon. Searenity location is catching constant tradewind breeze throughout the house practically all year long. The property offers two suites each with a separate sitting area for an additional guest or an office if you have to work remotely. The covered patio comes with a Weber bbq grill for an evening cookout by the private pool. There are four chaise lounges on the sun deck to relax after a dip in the sparkling salt water pool. The kitchen has everything you need to prepare a meal. An entire house is powered by Generac generator when the grid goes down which happens so often on the island. You still have the comfort without any interruption.

Loved our time here!

My family and I enjoyed 6 nights on the property. Absolutely loved the house and laundry area. House came stocked with all the beach necessities including a wireless/portable fan, beach bags, beach towels, beach chairs and snorkeling accessories! Loved that it was behind a gated entrance and people were there to great us upon our arrival and kept in touch thru out our stay should we need anything. Can’t wait to stay here again! It is a wonderful location!

Lovely quiet spot with fanmtastic view

We had a great stay at Searenity Villa. The home was clean and spacious and boasted a fantastic view of Cruz Bay. It was only a short distance from the Cruz Bay shops/restaurants but was very quiet and peaceful. All the attractions of St John are easily reachable via car.The hosts were very helpful and responsive.Overall, a great experience, and we'll be back!

Lovely stay

This was our third time staying at one of James and Tara’s places. The homes are always consistent— great—and so is their communication. The property is beautiful, clean, and has all of the amenities from the pool, beach chairs, to snorkeling gear. Every detail is well- thought out. When you travel, you want to enjoy a stress free trip. Staying here will ensure that! Next time we are on the island, we will be staying here again. Thanks!

Wonderful stay!

Close location to Cruz Bay. Rental Jeep needed. Property was very clean and owners had very well supplied with everything needed for vacation. Gated property with easy parking. View was amazing. Perfect accommodations for two couples as layout had two king suites on opposite ends of house. Would not hesitate to stay here again.

Excellent property!

Our family of 6 (my husband and I, our 2 kids and my parents) stayed at Searenity over Christmas this year and it was a great house for all of our needs. The hosts were responsive on the few occasions we needed something, the house was well stocked with anything we needed and very clean and organized!

Beautiful Place!!

We loved staying here! The place is beautiful, clean and has amazing views with a perfect pool! Is up on a pretty steep hill/bumpy road but most places are. Air conditioning rules were specific and it was hot during the day but when we had the AC in the room at night, the room cooled down quickly. Highly recommend staying here! It was wonderful overall!

Wonderful stay!

This house was perfect for our trip with 2 couples! It would also work well for a family. The living room & kitchen are in the center of the home, with the bedrooms split, one on each side of the house, each with a sitting room and bathroom. The pool was beautiful! Views were amazing! Beach chairs, towels, and small cooler were available for beach days. Quiet, gated location. It was a wonderful stay, and we would definitely return.

Paradise in St. John

The house exceeded our expectations. It’s even prettier than the pictures suggest. Spectacular view over Cruz Bay. House was clean and well furnished with a huge kitchen. Only the bedrooms have AC, but with all the windows, the house doesn’t feel hot. Hosts were quick to respond to messages and the check in/out process was a breeze. Highly recommend!

Best...Rental...Ever

JUST WOW. First, the house is stocked with everything you need. From beach bags to coolers. From snorkel gear to beach chairs. They even have jars in the bathroom with q-tips. The property owners truly thought of everything. Check in was a breeze. Communication with the owners was timely and friendly.Second, the house itself is incredible. The "roomate" style layout was perfect for two couples. We each had our own wing on each end of the house with the common areas in the middle. Each bedroom has its own office area. Furniture and fixtures are all new (sees like the house is as well). The pool was a great way to cool off while hanging out at house. Last, THE VIEW! It was a spectacular way to great the world every morning. We highly recommend this villa. You will love it, just like we did.

Mr.

Wow! First off the view is amazing. We were expecting a good view from the pictures online but they don’t do it justice. Stunning sunsets setting over islands every night. The kitchen is amazing with a huge island that was perfect for us as we cooked a lot and the kitchen had all the amenities. There was a constant cross-breeze that kept us very comfortable. The bedroom has a separate sitting area that is perfect for working remotely and had an air conditioner that made the room very comfortable. The landscaping is fantastic and well manicured. Tara was a great host and very responsive through the whole the whole process.

Really enjoyed our stay!

My family and I really enjoyed our stay here. The property was beautiful, the home was clean, and had everything we needed. My daughter especially enjoyed the private pool. We loved that they provided beach supplies such as beach chairs, snorkels, goggles, etc. it saved us from having to rent those items. The location of the home was convenient. Less than a 5 minute drive from the grocery store, restaurants, etc. The bedrooms are air conditioned, but the unit isn’t made to run all day.That wasn’t an issue for us since we were at the beach most of the day. The rest of the home was pretty warm and humid. Especially during the afternoon when the sun was setting. That’s no fault of the owners though. I’m sure it had a lot to do with the time of year we went. We just didn’t get as much of a breeze through the home as we had hoped. We really still loved our stay though, and would recommend this rental.

Very clean and everything you could need!

This home was impeccably clean and felt brand new. It had everything you could possibly need and so well organized. Very impressed with everything especially the pool and view. Owners were extremely accommodating and so nice and available if we needed them. But we had everything we could possibly need. Very spacious home with two separate bedrooms with their own sitting areas too. This is nice because there is only air conditioning in both of the bedrooms. We were glad to have a car rental. The house is a short drive to town. Very comfortable and nice to be in a gated culdesac. We loved venturing into town every evening. So charming. Every day we went to a different beach with Trunk Bay being our favorite. A 4WD rental to get around the island is a must as well as getting up the long driveway to the house. We enjoyed The Beach Bar for the view of Cruz Bay and the live music. Morgan’s Mango is a definite go-to. We also enjoyed Skinny Legs on Coral Bay. If you can take one of the open air taxis any chance you get them do bc parking is not good at all anywhere. We did drive everywhere and were lucky most of the time. When we went to dinner no town last two nights, we went straight to Slim Man’s small lot to pay for parking to make our lives’ easier. It is right by Rum Hut. We enjoyed our vacation and highly recommend this Searenity Villa.

Loveeelyyyyyyyyyy

The photos of this place do not do it justice. Check in was a breeze. Speaking of breeze, there is an air conditioning unit in each bedroom, but the rest of the house is just fine with windows open and that cross breeze coming through. The AC cools the bedroom very quickly. Everything appears to be pretty new. CLEAN. The views are amazing and better than I expected. They have water gear available like snorkels, noodles, beach chairs etc. A couple beach bags and some coolers are also on the property for you to borrow. The coolers were clutch! Stop at Dolphins down the road to snag a bag of ice as you head to the water. Minutes to town for cocktails, bites, and groceries. No issues with grilling. Sometimes places are out of gas or lack tools. Perfect steaks for a perfect sunset. Communication with the owners of the property was friendly and smooth. No bug issues on the property. Did I mention CLEAN? This is a great place for two couples to stay. The bedrooms/full bathrooms are on opposite ends of the house. With a separate room from there with TVs, couches, and desk. Then the middle living room, dining room and kitchen for all. Great setup. Was amazing for just my wife and I. We plan on booking this spot again when we return if it’s available!
