VI Friendship, Caribbean

Description from the manager

Construction Note:

As is true in any popular destination, construction of new homes continues on St. John. As of autumn 2011, a new home is being built above VI Friendship Villa. There will be some construction noise in the neighborhood, and possibly periodic construction-traffic interruptions. Please enquire with one of our Villa Specialists for further details.

All the key elements of a superb vacation villa are right here: six equally-sized, air-conditioned queen bedroom/bath suites with individual private balconies, a sand bulkhead 'beach,' pool and hot tub, a stunning waterfront location right over silvery ocean waves, and an... expansive view of Great Cruz Bay dotted with yachts riding at anchor and The Westin Resort's strand of white sand beach across the bay.

VI Friendship Villa integrates clean, modern architecture with a nautical flair expressed in railings inside and out with stylish stainless steel yacht rigging and cool travertine floors throughout. The villa is a is a sleek, harmonious meld of contemporary design featuring banks of windows which invite the glorious outside right in, natural stone accents, a superb floor plan providing excellent privacy for all guests and lots of space for everyone, and bonuses such as a well-equipped home office, an air-conditioned and fully-equipped exercise room with satellite TV and views out on the sparkling bay on three sides, plus a large air-conditioned game room for everyone's enjoyment featuring a ping-pong table, a pool table and game tables.

Oversized glass-paneled doors fold to one side and lead out to the heart of the villa - the infinity-edged pool, built-in hot tub, sunning area with chaise lounges and umbrellas, and off to one side, a 6-foot round exterior dining table shaded by an umbrella and flanked by a large stainless steel gas grill with rotisserie, a big commercial blender for tropical libations, a wet bar and a commercial ice maker - essentials for a relaxed vacation for a large group of family or friends!

VI Friendship Villa offers over 10,000 square feet of beautifully-designed vacation space furnished with flair and comfort, with all its small but very polished details enhancing this home's light and airy aura and unique character. Please be sure to book your family and friends early for your sun-filled and restful seaside adventure – this property books well in advance!.

  Villa was GREAT. Couldn\'t ask for a nicer place to spend Thanksgiving . Great Villa. Beautifully laid out. Credit to the Architect. Our major complaint was the dangerous driveway,long and steep. Took taxis to town at night. Taxis would not even drive down. We had to walk up to the street. Suggest some kind of barrier/curb be installed where dangerous.
