Summary:
Arc du Soleil was designed for guests to fully experience outdoor living on St. John, capturing the true essence of the Caribbean lifestyle.
The villa embraces its natural surroundings, allowing the tropical environment to take center stage throughout your stay. With its open-air design, the lines between indoor and outdoor living fade, creating a seamless and immersive island experience.
This is a place to slow down, unwind, and reconnect with nature in a way that is uniquely St. John.
The Space:
Experience true Caribbean open-air living, highlighted by magnificent native stone arches that frame a picture-perfect view of the Caribbean Sea. From dramatic sunsets to unforgettable stargazing, the setting becomes the centerpiece of your stay.
The villa features polished concrete floors, a spacious modern gourmet kitchen, and a thoughtfully designed primary bathroom with dual vanities and a soaking tub, ideal for unwinding after a day on the island.
The primary suite offers a Tempur-Pedic king bed and an en-suite bathroom with soaking tub. Two additional guest bedrooms each include en-suite baths. One is located on the main level with a Tempur-Pedic king bed, while the lower-level bedroom, located below the main house with a separate entrance, features two twin beds that can be converted into a king, offering flexible accommodations for families or groups.
Guest Access:
BOOKVI will arrange for a personal greeter to meet you at the villa for check-in, provide a brief tour, answer any questions, and share helpful island insights.
Check-in is tailored to your group size, arrival time, and familiarity with the island to ensure a smooth and welcoming arrival.
The Neighborhood:
With spacious decks and a large saltwater pool, which is gentler on your eyes, skin, and the environment, the villa offers the perfect vantage point to take in the views. Enjoy sweeping panoramas of Great Cruz Bay Harbor, across Pillsbury Sound to St. Thomas, and out to the surrounding islands and cays, all set against endless Caribbean sunsets.
On especially clear days, you may even spot Vieques and the distant mountains of Puerto Rico on the horizon.
This beautifully landscaped island home, surrounded by lush tropical gardens, is just minutes from Cruz Bay’s shops, restaurants, and beach bars, and a short drive to the North Shore’s renowned beaches.
