Casa Lupa, Caribbean

Description from the manager

This four-bedroom villa overlooks the expanse of the Bay from its location just above the shoreline. The fully air-conditioned main pavilion offers the Great Room and kitchen, and the adjacent master bedroom/bath suite, both connected by a shady covered loggia off the courtyard terrace, just perfect for alfresco dining and languid days and nights of sheer relaxation. At the rear of the Great Room, french doors flanked by Chinese statues of rams open out to a percolated gallery just outside, with a large gas grill and access to the laundry room.

The shaded loggia is furnished with a large dining table and with a cluster of cushioned wick...er seating; three steps down is the infinity-edge pool and sun deck all bordered by blooming tropical plants.

Across the courtyard terrace is Casa Lupa's second pavilion, where a patio covered with a pergola roof provides access via screened french doors to two air-conditioned, main-level suites. Adjacent is the green twin-bed bedroom/bath suite, decorated with colorful Guatemalan masks and a Moroccan dowry chest.

A staircase leads down from this level past a flowering garden of vivid bougainvillea to Casa Lupa's fourth suite, a totally private haven away from it all, with a small sitting area and en-suite bath.

Trips to Morocco inspired the simple but stunning interiors of Casa Lupa. The villa's walls are lime-washed, tinted with natural pigments from India and Africa. Moroccan mirrors and a Berber dish feature camel-bone inlays stained with henna; a kitchen wall showcases a hand painted antique pharmacy shelf, and the draperies in each room were hand woven in Morocco of silk and wool and dyed with natural pigments to match each room's wall color. Bed linens are luxurious 800-count. A few carefully-chosen hand painted Chinese pieces, original paintings and artistic accessories enhance Casa Lupa's fine decor throughout.

Brand new and ready to greet privileged guests, Casa Lupa is just a very short drive to Magens Bay beach, five minutes to Mahogany Run Golf Course, and about ten to fifteen minutes from Charlotte Amalie. Very highly recommended!

  Perfect!

  The villa was absolutely gorgeous and the service from Luxury Retreats outstanding. Absoutely everything was in order in our villa and we really appreciated the extras such as the airport greeter. Beach towels and chairs at the ready were among the little extras that made a difference. - Amanda P., Florida, USA

  Our Stay at Casa Lupa

  Overall it was fine. We had two minor engineering issues. One day the septic pump had issues and we had to call maintenance. On the last morning, the water pump lost its prime in a brown-out and needed to be re-set. The neighbor, Eric, was great and helped us reset it.

  Perfect spot our group. Loved the way Casa Lupa was laid out. Somewhat remote and difficult to find until we got familiar with the island. Then, it was perfect for our needs.
