Situated on Hart Bay Beach
Odessa
St. John Beachfront Villa
Situated near Cruz Bay St. John yet worlds away on Hart Bay Beach, our affordable three bedroom Caribbean villa is designed with custom West Indian charm – stone walls with arched windows, blue and white clapboard, lattice and gingerbread detailing the West Indian allure, yet the home is filled with all the amenities and conveniences one would desire.


Spectacular Caribbean Views from Deck! Watch the sunrise over Ditliff Point on one of the three multi-level decks or curl up with a book in the open-aired living room.

The home is very private, with a long, meandering stone pathway leading down from road to the vila, and a private path leading to Hart Bay Beach.

Our St. John Villa Amenities

Folding French doors open the entire front of the house to a panorama of sights and sounds of the sea.
Prepare meals on the outdoor grill or in the well appointed kitchen, appointed with stoneware made by local pottery designers and craftsmen. Dine on the deck or indoors and enjoy the sea breezes.

All Bedrooms Face the Caribbean
Odessa's master bedroom features beautiful hardwood floors, hand-crafted Caribbean stone and woodwork, a comfortable queen size bed, and a semi-open air shower.

The private lower level offers two bedrooms (one a suite) with queen size beds, air conditioning, full bathrooms and spacious decks. A sofa and roll-away bed accommodates other guests.

Other Amenities You Will Appreciate
The villa comes with linens, towels, beach chairs, coolers, a gas grill, cable TV, VCR, compact disc/tape deck, telescope and washer/dryer, and views you will always remember!

Private Pool and Jacuzzi
In harmony with the outdoors and nearly surrounded by the sea, our beach house features a pool and Jacuzzi overlooking the ocean for a fresh water dip day or night and with complete privacy.

A private path leads you to Hart Bay Beach, and you will usually have the beach all to yourself since there is no road access.

Gentle off-shore waves, coral and reef encompass the bay. A beachcomber's dream, go shelling, hike the nearby trail or snorkel among exotic coral and tropical fish, all just at the end of the villa’s private path directly to the water.

Facing east into the Tradewinds, savor the sound of the surf and delightful Caribbean breeze year round. The surroundings are alive with blooming frangipani, bougainvillea, native trees and giant cacti encircling the property.

Island Amenities and Activities
An island of less than 5000 permanent residents, St. John maintains a village-like ambiance. The Virgin Islands National Park covers almost two-thirds of St. John, thus our many beautiful white-sand beaches, grand views and hiking trails make St. John an ideal Caribbean vacation.

Tennis, sailing, power boating, sea kayaking, scuba diving and excellent snorkeling are all nearby. A five minute drive takes you to Cruz Bay, where you can wander the streets day or evenings and find excellent shopping, full service grocery stores, fine dining, interesting characters, "local flavor" and much more that St. John has to offer.

Also, St. John’s location makes island hopping to other islands easy - ferries run daily to St. Thomas and many times a week to the British Islands of Tortola, Virgin Gorda and Jost Van Dyke.

Fly into St. Thomas (no airport here!) and let the airport “taxi man” know you are going to St. John. They will escort you to the ferry dock where your 20 minute ferry ride will begin to relax your senses before arriving in Cruz Bay, St. John. You will be greeted at the Cruz Bay ferry dock by our friendly and knowledgeable manager, and be personally escorted to the house.

Stay at Odessa and see why we have so many repeat and referral guests vacation at our villa on St. John!
