Perfect Escape

The Seawing was an amazing place to stay in Coral Bay. It has everything you want and need. The views are amazing! Love the outdoor shower; especially at night under the stars. The house was well stocked with everything you would need for the beach. Book it now!!! You won’t regret it.

Way beyond our expectations!!!

Of all the places we have stayed in the Caribbean this could have been one of the best. The owners thought of EVERYTHING!!! If you needed it, they had it! We enjoy cooking a lot of meals from home and the kitchen was stocked with every essential you could imagine. The cookware was very nice and in good condition. But it's the little things that make this place special. I love that they put a night light in the bathroom. They left an unopened bottle of bath soap for us. The layout of the house is perfect and one that I would enjoy wherever we visit. When we did have to use the AC it was essentially like have a whole-home system with the loft interior design. Outdoor patio is great to enjoy some coffee on and see the sun rise and equally as great in the evening to eat dinner out on. The outdoor shower WAS THE BOMB!!!! We loved the location, and while it was far from the main hub of the island, it was really nice being that removed from everything as we enjoy the privacy and it's much less crowded... but the drive to the Cruz Bay area was not bad at all. There are some good places to eat very close by and a couple of markets to get groceries. One had a great selection of meats including super fresh fish. And the view of the ocean and surrounding islands was breathtaking!! PS. Thank you for having a king-size bed, surprised how many places on the island only have a queen and that's an automatic disqualifier for us.

Privacy Plus

A perfect base from which to explore the island, and every time we returned it felt like our private little oasis. Comfortable and well stocked with everything you could possibly need, I especially appreciated the quality cookware, linens, laundry and outdoor showers.

About the host

Hosted by Kathy Reddington & Frank Borzenski

We purchased this property in 2012 after vacationing here for the 25 years. We love ST John and especially the Coral Bay area.

Why they chose this property

The views are truly spectacular from everywhere in the house. We love the privacy and quiet of Seawing, yet it is close to beaches, hiking trails and very good restaurants. The paved driveway and road leading to the house is an added benefit.

What makes this property unique

An attractive feature is the airiness and openness of the house. The intimacy of the rear tropical garden with the hot tub, natural gorge and waterfall after heavy rains is something we have never experienced in any villa.
