About this property

Amazing large penthouse. Walk to town. Pool. Breathtaking views. Luxury.

3 Bedroom, 3 Bath, 2 Large Balconies, Sleeps 6

Blue Coral is a magnificent, luxury 3 bedroom, 3 bath condo villa with spectacular views of the Caribbean waters and surrounding islands. It was featured in Destination Magazine.

The town of Cruz Bay, the ferry dock and taxi stand are just a short walk away. Even though we are really close to the bars/restaurants/shopping - you will not hear any noise from the town. That differentiates us from some other places in Cruz Bay.

Our place is also the highest elevation in Palm Terrace (the 6 unit condo complex) with the best views. Please take a moment to read the wonderful reviews we have received.

In Cruz Bay you will find plenty of shopping, many fine restaurants, and active night life as well as, two grocery stores, a bank, a library and several churches.

Furnished with a king bed and three queen beds, it is ideal for a family or a few couples. Top quality linens and towels are provided as well as beach towels, beach chairs and coolers. Each of the three baths has a large, walk-in shower. There are large closets throughout as well as a laundry room within the condo. The dining room boasts a carved mahogany table that comfortably seats eight.

The modern kitchen is fully equipped with granite countertops, dishwasher, microwave, toaster, dishes, glassware, coffee pot, Keurig, blender, pots and pans, spices, and many other kitchen gadgets.

The main balcony provides comfortable seating for dining and drinking while enjoying the exquisite views of the Caribbean water and surrounding islands. The balcony off the master suite commands panoramic views and ultra-comfortable lounges as well as a teak table and chairs for an intimate dining experience. Balcony ceiling fans provide additional comfort.

The unit has central air conditioning and each room has a ceiling fan. The great room has cathedral ceilings and a 65'' Hi-Def wall-mounted TV. All three bedrooms also have Hi-Def wall-mounted TVs. WIFI is included.

If you feel you must work while in paradise, there is an office area off of the Blue Bedroom.

Ample parking is available. Relax by the pool in one of the many lounge chairs. Grill your steaks or fresh fish by the pool on one of the two large stainless steel grills.

Our island host will greet you upon your arrival . They will acquaint you with your accommodations and share an extensive knowledge of the island, including local amenities, restaurants, beaches and hiking trails and ensure you have everything you need to make your experience wonderful.

Blue Coral is smoke-free.

Great place

We have been coming to St. John for 15 years and have stayed at numerous VRBOs/Villa's, Blue Coral is now among our top choices. The place was the perfect size for our group of 5. The view was spectacular. The place was stocked to meet all of our needs - beach towels, beach chairs, umbrellas. Very clean. Management guys were great. We didn't need much, but when we asked for something, they promptly addressed it. Location was awesome. We were able to walk to and from town for dinner and shopping. We will definitely be back. Thanks for an amazing stay.

Coral Bay townhouse

The property and location were ideal for my family. The bedrooms were perfect and the kitchen had all the amenities we could use. Checking in was simple and easy from the ferry. I would highly recommend this location

Amazing villa, location, and view

We loved our stay! Everything was as described. The view is amazing and I spent every morning reading the paper on the covered balcony. We easily walked to town for all of the restaurants and avoided the parking hassles. We had a spot to park right in front of the villa which made our trips to the beaches and back a breeze. The villa itself is large and well-maintained. Newer appliances including a washer/dryer. There were even beach chairs, coolers, and snorkle gear that we borrowed. Chris, the PM met us at the house when we arrived and showed us around. He made himself available if there were any issues, but there were not thanks to his diligence in maintaining the property on the front end. We would (and likely will) stay here again.

Beautiful place, perfectly located, great hosts

We were a group of 3 couples, old friends. This place really felt like a home. It is beautifully appointed and decorated with good furniture and great towels and linens. The rooms are large and comfortable, the kitchen fully equipped for most any culinary adventure. The property manager had been excellent in answering question and arranged for us to be picked up upon arrival at the ferry. The condo is only a 5 minute walk to the center of town, yet situated on a hill overlooking a bay and other homes. There truly was no noise form town there. But plenty of bird song and rooster calls in the morning. The place is peaceful and quiet. We enjoyed the pool and watching the iguanas hanging out there and in the tree tops .As a host myself I appreciated the care, considerations and hospitality that James and his wife provide. As well as Chris and Tyler.One word, you'll need a car to get around if you want to go to the best beaches. The driving isn't bad, but slow and steady.

Blue Coral Retreat in St John

We absolutely loved your home! All the bedrooms were spacious. Everyone had their own bathroom, the living room and kitchen layout were open and spacious with beautiful views! The kitchen had everything you could need. The porches off the bedroom and living room were fantastic with comfortable furniture and a place to sit and eat or play a game of cards in the evening. We had several iguanas in the tree outside of the bathroom window every morning, we could hear the peacocks and roosters in the afternoons and evenings, even met a few island kitties on our walks down into town, we relaxed on the porch and watched the boats go by, and the pool was just below us so if the kids wanted to swim, we could see them and talk to them from the porch - it was such an authentic island experience. Very relaxing beautiful home with amazing surroundings. Some reviews referenced the big hill - it was steep, but short and quick. It is the hill that gets you the elevation and views... and we enjoyed so much island food and beverages that we appreciated the exercise. Also, the location is amazing! We rented a car and decided to cancel it - didn't need it. You can walk to everything and meet your boat or get a cab from Cruz Bay easily. I cannot imagine any place being better than this one for a family or group of couples.

A short, but admittedly steep, walk to Cruz Bay. Happy to come home to Blue Coral each evening. Comfy beds, nice kitchen, great support from the management company. The two decks, one with a daybed, were especially inviting.

Great Stay!

We LOVED our stay on St. John! The property was walking distance to Cruz Bay which was ideal, however, bring sneakers if you aren't used to walking hills! The amount of hills and switchbacks in this area is quite concerning if you are not used to it, but by the end of the vacation we were used to it! For people who have visited the island they know just how hilly it is. The property was fabulous, the only negative was the water pressure was not good in any of the showers.

Loved Blue Coral

Our first time on St. John, and Blue Coral was everything we had read about. Beautiful view, clean and comfortable, fabulous beaches easily accessible by jeep (taxi also possible), and "downtown" Cruz Bay itself is walking distance, if you're in ok shape (our party included 2 over-60s and we were fine). AC worked well. We didn't use the pool; the beaches are too beautiful. St. John is truly paradise.
