About this property

Wake Up to Magens Bay: New 2BR at Villa Tranquila

This brand-new, modern villa suite overlooks stunning Magens Bay and amazing down island views of the British Virgin Islands, and offers the perfect blend of comfort and style. The space features two well-appointed bedrooms—one with a king bed and the other with a queen—each with its own private full bathroom and high quality linens for a restful and relaxing stay.

The cozy open-concept living area is ideal for relaxing, featuring a comfy sofa and love seat. The fully equipped kitchen includes a convection cooktop and stove, dishwasher, coffee maker (drip & Keurig), toaster, blender and full-sized fridge, making it easy to prepare everything from casual breakfasts to gourmet dinners. The kitchen island is paired with four comfortable swivel bar stools for relaxed gatherings. A table for 4 is also situated on the deck for dining or cocktails overlooking Magens Bay!

Ceiling fans and air conditioning throughout ensure a cool, comfortable retreat, while a Smart TV provides modern entertainment at your fingertips.

The space also includes a thoughtfully designed work area featuring bright lighting, a monitor, practical storage, and abundant power access.

A dedicated laundry room with a washer and dryer is located inside the suite. Back up generator on site.

The villa suite enjoys a private entrance within a secluded villa setting, not an apartment building as described by VRBO. An outdoor shower for sand and salt removal is right at your entry for your convenience.

While the traveling owners and their adorable "doodle" and "westie" may occasionally be on-site in the main residence above, your suite remains entirely private and designed for your uninterrupted enjoyment.

The property is lovely and the views were beautiful! The host was very helpful and responsive to questions. The location was challenging to get to but that seemed to be a function of the island roads and housing.

Thank you for the 5 star review Therese! And thanks for the feedback, it is much appreciated. We are always looking for ways to improve - from now on, we will ensure that we are asking guests if they are familiar and comfortable with using the Map App to get to the villa - and if not, we will make other accommodations for them. Since the hurricanes, the roads (for the most part) have been named, and the apps seem to work quite well, but there can always be glitches and we are happy to meet guests at the airport to escort them to the villa! Now that you all know the way we hope you will come back soon! Thanks again!! Lauren

We have stayed on the island a few times , and this spot was easily the best we've experienced. The apartment was luxurious, quiet and secure. The views were spectacular-better than the vrbo photos! Our hosts were so helpful and accommodating. I can’t recommend this spot highly enough.

Our stay at Villa Tranquila was amazing. The view is gorgeous. Everything is clean, comfortable and just perfect. Important to note they have a full-time generator so power outages aren't a problem. The home is also air-conditioned but with the ocean breeze you probably won't need it. Lauren is an excellent host with great recommendations and a quick response anytime we had a question about something on the island. We would defintely stay here again.

We had such an incredible stay at this property.it truly felt like a little slice of paradise. The house was absolutely beautiful, spotless, and so comfortable from the moment we walked in. Every detail was thoughtfully done, making it easy to relax and feel right at home.One of the highlights was the breathtaking views. Waking up early to watch the sunrise over the bay was something special—peaceful, stunning, and the perfect way to start the day. The mountain breeze coming through kept everything feeling cool and refreshing, which made lounging around even more enjoyable.The location couldn’t have been better. Just a short drive away, we spent our days soaking up the sun at Magens Bay, one of the most beautiful beaches we’ve ever visited. Coming back to the house afterward felt like returning to your own private retreat.And honestly, even the shower deserves a mention—having such a gorgeous view while getting ready was such a unique and memorable touch.Lauren was absolutely amazing and we couldn’t have asked for a better stay and would absolutely come back again!

Exceeded Every Expectation - Perfect place to stay in St. Thomas for our first time on the island-The location was wonderfully peaceful and private. We never heard a single car or person, just the sound of the breeze and the nightly chorus of frogs. The view of beautiful Magens Bay never got old.-Brand new and extremely clean. Spotless from top to bottom and showed thoughtful attention to every detail. The owners provided beach chairs, an umbrella, a cooler, and everything else we needed for beach days — plus a wonderful outdoor shower that quickly became one of our favorite features.-Security was excellent with both a gated community entrance and a private gated entrance to the villa grounds.-Generator provided uninterrupted power during multiple power outages on island. Lights never even flickered.-Cooling was outstanding with A/C units and ceiling fans in the main living area and every bedroom. We slept comfortably in cold, refreshing rooms each night.-Centrally located. 10 minutes to Charlotte Amalie. 20 minutes to Ferry Terminal. 5 minutes from great coffee and breakfast place (Sib's Daily Dose).We couldn’t have asked for a better stay!

Where to begin?? We've stayed at VRBO's around the globe. This is in every way the most incredible home we have EVER stayed in. Shawn and Lauren exceeded every expectation we could have had with this home. Two security gates to access the property ( your screen door and windows can stay open all night long to hear the waves and the sounds of nature)...It is BEYOND private, incredibly quiet....with stunning view of Magens Bay. The view is literally breathtaking....it's a "WOW factor" on steroids! The house itself is GORGEOUS...more than fully furnished, gourmet kitchen, incredible bathrooms (soap, shampoo, conditioner all provided),bedrooms, washer and dryer (laundry detergent provided) ..the owners provide beach chairs, beach umbrella, beach towels ( all the things we were worried about not having)....they literally thought of everything. One thing we really appreciated is that they were so flexible with scheduling ( we had some flight cancellations and hiccups and they generously offered to accommodate us by allowing us to stay beyond our original booking). Also, they were always immediately (within seconds) responsive to phone calls or text messages....even offering great restaurant suggestions which was helpful. Shawn and Lauren truly went well ABOVE and BEYOND to make our stay the most memorable of all vacations. We hope to return year after year.

Wow, thank you so much for this incredibly kind and thoughtful review!! We’re truly honored by your words, especially knowing how well-traveled you are and how many homes you’ve experienced around the world. It means more to us than we can say. We’re so glad you enjoyed the privacy, the views of Magens Bay, and the peaceful sounds of nature—those are some of our favorite parts of the property as well. It’s wonderful to hear that the home, amenities, and little details helped make your stay comfortable and stress-free, and that everything you needed was there waiting for you. We’re also happy we could be flexible with your travel schedule and assist along the way. Making our guests feel supported and well taken care of is very important to us. Thank you again for choosing our villa and for taking the time to share such a generous review. We would be delighted to welcome you back anytime and would love to host you again in the future. We look forward to seeing you again...and again!

This is one of the best travel experiences we have ever had. Lauren and her team are exceptional at communication. They helped us with not just booking the house, but renting a vehicle, booking expeditions, transferring us from the airport, giving advice on restaurants, etc. The home is SO clean! It had everything we needed. It was even bigger than it looked in the pictures. And it’s the little things that make a difference. Things like beach chairs, beach towels, umbrella, cooler, filtered water in the fridge. The security is perfect (two locked gates to get in). The outdoor shower was so great after getting home from the beach. It was very quiet, and the view was so amazing I cried one morning when I got up and saw it. The only thing (and this has nothing to do with the home), is you have to get used to driving on the island if you rent a car. It’s left side of the road, narrow winding roads, etc. One night we booked an excursion for night time kayaking (highly recommended) and didn’t want to worry about driving home on the dark on unfamiliar roads. Lauren has suggested Exclusive Limousine VI. It was worth every penny. The driver, Perrez, was wonderful at communicating pick up details. He was so courteous and helpful. Overall, 10 out of 10! We are already talking about booking for next year. Thank you to Lauren!!
