Villa vacation rentals in Nazareth, East End

We returned to Elysium this spring, having rented the same home 18 years ago for our honeymoon. The living area is upstairs, with 2 bedrooms downstairs on the second level, each with a separate entrance and bathrooms. It is ~15min from Cruz Bay, but worth the drive - private with unbelievable views. There is lots of outdoor space on both levels, and of course the private pool. There are lots of beautiful native plants on the property, and there are birds everywhere to serenade you. BookVI was very proactive and flexible. They guided us to the property and were in communication every day to make sure that all was good. You will want a jeep as the road from town is a little hilly, there is a very short strip of unpaved road just before the driveway, and the driveway is paved but steep. (as is the case with many of the hillside homes!) This was a peaceful place to wake up every morning, and to spend the evening after exploring beaches and hiking. Highly recommend!

We were originally hesitant to book because of the lack of reviews, however it was a beautiful place to stay with room for everyone to spread out. Within minutes to Magens Bay and less than a 20 minute drive to anywhere you'd like to get on the island. Rental and amenities were as described, the hosts were great and very friendly. They did exactly as they stated, did not bother you at all and were available immediately for recommendations or anything else you may need. Extremely detailed instructions on how to find the rental and get inside. Absolutely the best price you will find for everything you get, location, cleanliness, and a safe neighborhood. I will also point out this is the only tropical rental we have been to that DOES NOT have any ants, gnats, or any bugs running around inside which is common in tropical places but was an excellent bonus.

I cannot say enough about how beautiful this house and location is. A beautiful view of the water in almost every location in the home. Very clean and the ere was plenty of room for 5 of us. We loved the spacious dining room with a huge dining table to seat a large group. When on the deck, you are almost directly above the water-feels like you are on a cruise ship! Andrew responded immediately whenever we had a question. I would definitely recommend this home!

I appreciate Randall meeting near the property to provide directions and information. The house was very clean and the views are stunning from the back patio.

Chirag was so kind and responsive! His place is gorgeous. The pool felt amazing after a long day at the beach or a hike. The place looked just as pictured. I would definitely come back!

We very much enjoyed our stay at Pressure Drop Villa (PDV). The view is amazing and the location , though private, is close enough to beaches, groceries and restaurants. In addition, the kitchen is well stocked and supplies for the beach are provided. We used the beach chairs, cooler and beach towels almost daily (had a rainy day). It is a short drive to many fantastic beaches. From PDV Salt Pond, Francis Bay, Maho Bay, and Skinny Legs (restaurant) are all a fairly short drive. Trunk Bay and Cinnamon Bay beaches are a bit further. It was easier for us to park at Cinnamon Bay and take a Taxi to Trunk Bay. We also went into Cruz Bay to La Tapa for a fantastic dinner one evening. To end the evening we would unwind on the deck . It’s really nice to sit on the deck and relax and soak up the sights and sounds of Coral Bay. Jean was always available to answer our questions and give us guidance when needed. We would stay here again.

Our family had an amazing time at Windchime. The property is beautiful and very private with amazing views that are even better than the photos. It is in a central location that is an easy drive into town and all the amazing beaches. We can’t wait to come back!

Thomas’s place is nothing short of a paradise. If you are thinking of booking just do it because you will not be disappointed. The location is amazing. You are a very short drive to Cruz bay and ALL the beautiful beaches yet you are high enough up the hill to get the most amazing views. The home was very easy to find with the detailed (including pictures) instructions provided by the host. There is an amazing garden in back with so many birds that the host provided us with food (sugar and hummingbird water) and instructions of how to feed them if we wanted. The home was very clean. The beds were nice and comfortable (i am a very picky sleeper). The kitchen was stocked with tools needed to cook a meal and some snacks and coffee also. The beach items provided were great! Thomas was very responsive with recommendations and his communication from the point of booking was phenomenal. He went above and beyond. We had the most amazing girls trip and I cannot wait to come back.

Kristen's place was top-tier!! Not to mention the beautiful views and over accommodations. She offered more amenities than we expected. Overall, we had an amazing time and would definitely consider staying there again.

This is the greatest place we’ve ever stayed. It had a breathtaking view, was well appointed, quiet, peaceful, and tranquil. Memory Daze is a dream and we will be coming back. The hosts were supper communicative and helpful and the house had everything we needed to have a great vacation. I literally teared up when we were about to leave because it was such a happy place for my wife and I. If you are reading this and contemplating a vacation here in St. John, do it! Book this place now. You won’t regret it.

This place was amazing. The property was very well maintained and clean. Everything worked and it had everything we needed. The location is close to hiking, beaches, grocery and food. Kim was a great host we will be back for sure.

What a wonderful stay! Amazing all around, from the villa's accommodations to the view! Just Wow!!!! Thank you Xaverie and Stephanie.

Great location, privacy, and breathtaking views! The home was more space than we needed, but we enjoyed the open layout, and spacious bedrooms and bathrooms, and beautiful views from every room. We appreciated all of the amenities as well - from everything in the kitchen to the A/C units, ceiling fans, extra towels, laundry, etc. We loved the pool area with options for sitting in the sun and shade, and really enjoyed exploring the paths around the home and the “extra” deck and chairs. Great proximity to Magens Bay and our favorite spot, the Northside Grind for coffee, smoothies and sandwiches.

Villa Paradiso was incredible! Hilltop location, overlooking to Jost Van Dyke. The roads are a little harrowing to get up there, but easily navigable, and once there it’s pure solitude. Our kids lived the pool. The kitchen had everything to cook to dinner for our group of 10. The outdoor showers were the cherry on top. Would rate the home 10/10 and Rehanna and Sylvia were so so great to communicate with.

Absolutely Perfect Stay at Just Peachy! Our stay at Just Peachy in St. John was nothing short of incredible! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the stunning views of the mountains and ocean—it truly felt like paradise. The villa itself was immaculate, beautifully designed, and had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing vacation. Melissa, our host, was phenomenal! She was incredibly responsive, always just a message away, and went above and beyond to make sure our stay was perfect. Whether it was providing great local recommendations, answering any questions we had, or simply ensuring we felt at home, her hospitality was unmatched. Waking up to breathtaking sunrises, lounging on the patio with the cool island breeze, and enjoying the peaceful surroundings made this trip unforgettable. If you're looking for the perfect getaway in St. John, Just Peachy is the place to be. We can’t wait to come back! Thank you, Melissa, for making our trip so special!

The view is amazing, plenty of room and very spacious. AWD is a must for the driveway, pool are is very nice. No complaints at all. We loved our week here !!!!

Coconut Breeze was as good as advertised. The home was comfortable, well stocked and had spectacular views, absolutely perfect for our group of 6. Definitely get a 4 wheel drive vehicle as the roads leading up are steep and a bumpy, but hey it’s St John and that’s what you signed up for. While the home is tucked into the private, lush jungle hillside it’s also conveniently located a short drive away from multiple restaurants, grocery stores etc. We had an issue with an AC unit in the cottage, but it was promptly resolved by our host. The cottage porch was not screened in, but maybe this is something that will be done in the future. If you are staying in Coral Bay Coconut Breeze is the way.

Great host and property. Unique,great view,comfortable,well equipped. Great pool. 5 star across board except star on location as represented due to advertising of "short walk to beach ". Was short drive to multiple beautiful beaches,Smugglers Cove most beautiful secluded beach ever

From start to finish, April made our stay one of our most memorable vacations. Having visited the island multiple times, we knew exactly what we wanted—and this property checked all the boxes. Anything we needed or requested was promptly addressed by either April or her property managers. This property is truly one of a kind, offering both stunning sunrise and sunset views. The ocean breeze is strong but refreshing, keeping you cool throughout the day. We also opted to have April provision our groceries, and she went above and beyond—everything was neatly put away upon our arrival. Water Island has always held a special place in our family’s heart, and staying here made it even more unforgettable. We can’t recommend it enough!

Great and safe location! Right by all the action in Cruz Bay

We loved the Hideaway at Hull Bay! The property itself is so well kept… fruit trees, palm canopies, tropical flowers all around! We stayed in cottage #8 and it was great for our family. We also really enjoyed the Shack, amazing food and laid back beach atmosphere. Beach was fun, but there are so many other beaches on island that we only stayed at this beach one day. Overall great experience.

We really enjoyed this condo on St. John!! It was so comfortable and had everything we needed. We loved sitting out on the covered balcony, enjoying the view, both in the morning while having our coffee and in the evening watching the sunset! The location was fantastic! We walked to town for restaurants & groceries, and we walked to the taxi area to get a ride to the beautiful beaches! There was a steep hill walking back to the condo, but it was worth it for the condo and its location! It was just right for us and our two teenagers:)

I’ve had staying in many airbnbs before, and Stacie’s place has been one of the best I’ve stayed at. It had everything we needed and wanted plus more. Don’t even think twice to book this place! It’s beautiful. Also bathrooms were recently remodeled and they’re both beautiful. I will say that this home is not for children under or the elderly.

Beautiful location and great place to say! Hosts were super helpful and responsive. Would definitely recommend and stay again!
