Summary:
Cielo Vista is a hilltop villa with two king suites, a queen loft, and a queen apartment (available for an additional fee), sleeping 6–8 guests. The home blends Latin-style flooring, white plaster walls, and rich mahogany accents. Enjoy AC throughout the villa, including the living room, loft, and kitchen, plus a whole-house generator for added comfort. Relax on the pool deck with breathtaking Caribbean Sea views and unforgettable sunsets. 🌴
The Space:
Upon entering the villa, you’ll find the central hub of the home: a two-story lofted Great Room designed to capture gentle Caribbean breezes and abundant natural light. The space features multiple seating areas, A/C, and a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. The loft includes a queen bed and catwalk leading to a private second-story deck. Loft guests share a bathroom with one of the king bedrooms, as the loft does not have its own en-suite.
The Great Room is flanked by two private king bedrooms, each with A/C, king beds, and en-suite bathrooms with dual vanities and spacious spa-style showers.
The fully equipped kitchen opens to the Great Room, allowing guests to enjoy the views and conversation while meals are prepared. Across from the kitchen, a large screened veranda provides a comfortable space for relaxing, dining, or reading while overlooking the private pool and lush tropical gardens—perfect for sunsets and evening cocktails.
The lower-level studio apartment offers an additional private retreat with a kitchen, living area, queen bed, and screened patio. This apartment is available for an additional fee and must be booked by reserving for 8 guests. If the apartment is not reserved, it will remain private, locked, and not rented to other parties during your stay. 🌴
Guest Access:
BOOKVI will arrange for a personal greeter to meet you at the villa for check-in, provide a brief tour of the property, answer any questions about the home, and share helpful insights about the island. Check-in arrangements are tailored to your party size, arrival time, and familiarity with the area to ensure a smooth arrival.
The Neighborhood:
Located on Gift Hill, this villa enjoys spectacular westward-facing views, perfect for breathtaking Caribbean sunsets. The area is quiet and peaceful, yet just minutes from Cruz Bay, the Virgin Islands National Park beaches, and scenic hiking trails. 🌴
