Caneel Trailside Cottage Cruz Bay, Overlooking Caneel Pool 2 Bedroom(s), 2 Bath(s)
If you want to relax next to your own private swimming pool adjacent to the Virgin Islands National Park and surrounded by a private tropical garden, then this is the place for you. You will feel entirely away from it all, despite the fact that the galleries, restaurants, bars, music, and other conveniences of Cruz Bay are only one mile away. Caribbean views from every room in the house will mesmerize you as the ridge-top breezes cool you after a day at the beach. The villa sits one mile outside Cruz Bay high up on the ridge in the saddle between Caneel Hill and Margaret Hill, adjacent to the Virgin Islands National Park. This is our view. Our house has two bedroom suites on opposite sides of a great room. Each has a king-sized bed and its own en suite bathroom, individually zoned air conditioning, and private access to a porch overlooking the Caribbean. Each bedroom suite also has a full-sized closet, two built-in dressers, and somewhere comfortable to sit and relax. All kitchen and laundry appliances are brand new and top quality. A lush garden surrounds the private brick patio that encloses a swimming pool, barbecue area, plentifully seating, hammocks, and lots of space to idle away from it all. Expansive front porches look out over the Southwest end of St John and offer expansive views of the Caribbean. The house was built in 2005 and everything is brand-new, state of the art, and in perfect condition. Forty yards from our backyard, through National Park land, is Caneel Hill Trail, which drops down to secluded white sand beaches on the North Shore in less than 45 minutes, and drops down to the town of Cruz Bay with a half-hour hike in the other direction. A 1/4-mile hike brings you to the Caneel Hill Observation Platform, where you can see a 360-degree view of both the Caribbean and Atlantic as well as the entire Western Half of St. John.
