Aqua Gem was completed in 1999, and like its nearly identical next door neighbor, Ocean Pearl, it is located just above the Westin Resort, overlooking the turquoise waters of Great Cruz Bay. The house faces south-southwest and gets poolside sun all day. The picturesque view includes the islands of Little and Great St James and the south end of St. Thomas, plus the sparkling waters of Great Cruz Bay and the Caribbean, as well as views of fiery sunsets and distant island lights at night.
This is a very convenient location that is less than a five minute drive to the restaurants, beach bars, groceries and shopping in the delightful town of Cruz Bay. You are also only a 5-minute walk to the restaurants, spa, beach and taxi stand at the Westin Resort, so this is one of the few villas we offer where you could get by without a jeep, but we still recommend that you rent a jeep.
This is a 2 level, 2-bedroom villa where both air conditioned bedrooms, a 20 X 12 foot pool and a 700 square foot deck are on the lower level, accessible by an interior spiral staircase, while the living /dining/kitchen areas, a half bath, and a wrap-around deck are on the upper level. You park on the upper level and interior and exterior stirs lead to the bedrooms on the lower level.
