Description
Casa de la Luz commands a fantastic view of St. John's pristine East End and the many British Virgin Islands and cays beyond, all dramatically staged against the vast blue backdrop of ocean and sky. You’ll be located high on a hill above Calabash Boom, reached by a winding country road, so the elevation and the balmy breezes usually keep the temperature at this property very comfortable, and provide the incredible views you'll always remember.
Casa de la Luz’s Pool Deck offers a surprising and unique feature: the Oceanside portion of the deck railing is hinged and can be opened and swung out of the way, so that you may enjoy an uninterrupted vista of the amazing ocean panorama beyond.
Casa de la Luz neighbors National Park land, and is on the quiet side of St. John, but Coral Bay's bars, restaurants and small shops are just a couple minutes' drive down the road. The Ram's Head trailhead is just a few minutes' drive from here, should you feel like hiking to some of the best views in the Caribbean.
Built all on one level, Casa de la Luz offers luxurious spaces, which includes a fully equipped Kitchen and a spacious Dining and Living Lounge with a Cathedral Ceiling. French doors open from the Living Lounge to a wide covered Verandah, which overlooks unparalleled sea view and catches the cool Island trade winds. On one side is the secluded solar-heated pool and sun deck in a lovely tropical garden setting.
Relaxation and a good meal for two go together, so the wide covered Verandah is furnished with a cushioned sofa and a table and chairs for alfresco dining; it's shaded and cool by day and frames the sky at night for romantic stargazing. The Casa’s Bedroom is air conditioned and has a Queen Bed.
You can rent small boats and snorkel gear at Crabby's, pick up some groceries at Lily's Gourmet Grocery (or ask us to arrange to have your groceries purchased and delivered to your villa just before your arrival - what luxury!), enjoy a casual meal at Skinny Legs, Donkey Diner, Aqua Bistro or Sweet Plantains, and try Shipwreck Landing for dinner and live music once a week.
