Casa YaYa boasts stunning views, indoor/outdoor living and the perfect location!
Look no further than Casa YaYa for your perfect St. John retreat. The moment you enter, the view will take your breath away. Casa YaYa boasts one of the prettiest views on the island. Located on the western hillside overlooking beautiful Coral Bay, we’re located in a quiet area with wonderful breezes and full sun until mid to late afternoon. If privacy is what you desire, this is the villa for you.
If you ever decide to come inside, the comfort and décor will envelop you and have you feeling relaxed and rejuvenated. This one level villa is unique for its large 10-foot-high openings along the entire east side allowing beautiful sunshine and cooling breezes to invade the villa. The view from each room is unparalleled. It boasts a large great room and kitchen. The two master bedrooms are located on opposite sides of the great room for maximum privacy. Each air-conditioned master bedroom features a king-sized bed and affords the same spectacular view as the great room. Both bathrooms have outdoor showers that are highly desired in this tropical climate.
The roomy loft is open to the great room during the day but has a room-dividing curtain that you can close at night to enhance privacy and allow the AC to keep the loft nice and cool. There are two bunk beds (twin over twin w/ a twin trundle, and a twin over full) allowing up to 6 to sleep in total AC comfort. Please note: the loft is accessed by a barn-style ladder not a staircase and is not recommended for younger children or older adults. This set-up makes Casa YaYa perfect for two families.
Enjoy the privacy that this villa has to offer while lounging in the crystal blue waters of the 20x12x5 pool. Sunbathe on the spacious sun deck. All of this is possible as you take in the view of Coral Bay, Tortola and the Sir Francis Drake Passage to Virgin Gorda. Don't forget to watch the sunrise and moonrise which are visible from every room in the house.
Casa YaYa has a gated driveway, beyond which offers a garden rich with native plants and many different species of palm trees.
Located in Coral Bay, where many of the locals choose to live, we are in close proximity to comfortable island dining whether you are looking for the very casual to more upscale. Situated perfectly between the quieter eastern beaches and the world-famous north shore beaches, Casa YaYa is only minutes from each. Hiking trails abound and are also only minutes away. A night out in Cruz Bay, dining and shopping, is just a short (but curvy) 25-minute drive on island roads where speeds are rarely over 20 miles per hour. The island is two-thirds National Park land and therefore protected from over-development.
Completely rebuilt and refurnished following hurricanes Irma and Maria in 2017, Casa YaYa is one of the nicest properties on the island located in one of the best spots.
Casa YaYa will not disappoint and will leave you dreaming of your return!
We now offer a rental truck as well for an additional fee. A custom-built Toyota Tundra with 4WD and an automatic transmission offers seating for up to 6 in the interior and another four seats in the bed of the truck. These seats are bolted to the frame, have seat belts and a covered canopy overhead. This is the perfect beach vehicle for St. John and allows passengers to fully embrace our warm climate and incredible views. Let us know if you are interested in booking our truck (separate contract and payment).
Our on-Island Coordinator and Staff will ensure that your stay is comfortable and that your needs are met.
**ALL RATES ARE BASED ON FOUR PERSONS. THERE IS A FEE OF $25/PER NIGHT/PER ADDITIONAL GUESTS.

Our trip to St.John was wonderful. The view from the balcony is absolutely stunning. We rented the truck which was great to have to take to the beaches everyday! Jeff was very easy to coordinate and communicate with through the entire process. We already want to come back
We loved our stay at Casa YaYa! The view and pool deck were amazing! Also, not sure if other's have mentiond this, but they also provided beach chairs, coolers and snorkel gear in the outside closet.
Casa Yaya is the perfect place to stay on St. John. Comfortable, clean, peaceful, has an awesome pool and some of the best views on the island. We will definitely stay here again!
We had an amazing stay at Casa YaYa!! It was such a great location just up the hill from two fantastic spots ( Johnny Lime and Skinny Legs)! The property had everything you could need!! The pool and deck had amazing views!! Perfect family vacation!
We had an amazing stay at Casa Yaya. We had a group of 6, ages 9-72. The younger ones used the loft, they thought it was cool. You do use a ladder to get up there, so keep that in mind. It had everything we needed and we cooked in alot. The communication before and during our stay was great. I had a situation with a suitcase being left at the airport and Jeff was super helpful with suggestions. We rented the truck too. It was such a smooth process for pick up and drop off. Thanks Rick! The house is on top of the mountain, so the view is amazing! That being said, the ride up is pretty steep, not unusual for St. John. Definitely worth it!
Family of six (two kids, parents, and grandparents) had a special week in paradise. The house was as advertised and the location and amenities were great. The quiet side of the island still has some great restaurants, grocery stores, and plenty of hikes. Miss that view and can’t wait to come back someday!
Casa Yaya is a villa located just up the hill from Love City Market making daily shopping needs quick and easy. On island property support is amazing. We will definitely be back.
First time staying in Coral Bay and won't be our last! Love the views, restaurants and stores - such a great community feel. We also couldn't have been happier with Casa YaYa, what a beautiful property that had everything you could ask for. Only problem is that between the pool & the views, you didn't want to leave the house, but we did - so many beautiful beaches and great hikes to enjoy. Thank you Jeff & Maria for sharing your piece of paradise with us.
The first thing you will notice is the fantastic view of Coral Bay, but there is so much more to love about Casa Ya Ya. The proximity to restaurants and stores, the patio and pool, the kitchen with every appliance/accessory you need...I could go on and on. The owners and the on-island crew are helpful and available whenever you need something. This was our second time at this property and we can't wait to come back.
We’ve been to STJ many times over the years. Took another couple with us for this trip. Cannot say enough good things about the house. It was perfect for the four of us. Had everything we needed and then some. Our hosts pretty much thought of everything and were highly responsive. We had beautiful views and sunrises. Also got to enjoy beautiful starry nights. Coral Bay is the quieter side of the island which is exactly what we like. We will definitely return to Casa Yaya
We took the family for our first USVI stay. Kids ages 10 and 6. This property delivered the ideal experience for our group. We loved the location, away from crowds and noise, yet close to conveniences like groceries and restaurants. We loved the private pool and beautiful patio for stargazing and enjoying the views of coral bay. One of the best stocked kitchens we have seen in a rental helped produce some home cooked meals to remember too! Would definitely book here again if back in St John.
Reasonable rates for a beautiful place on top of the quiet side of the island. The truck rental was a great value add, especially with the airport pickup/dropoff. Jeff (the host) was super responsive to any and all questions we had, including some great recommendations on restaurants and charters. Still one of my favorite places to visit and I'm sure we'll be back!
We had an amazing time at the beautiful Casa YaYa! The view was incredible, especially with the full moon. The location was perfect for a more quiet getaway. We met some wonderful people at the local spots. Made it to Miss Lucy’s Thursday night for the live music and was such a blast! Highly recommend to future guests. Jeff and Maria were wonderful and were very quick to respond and inform us on a few road issues. Will be returning in the future when we visit our daughters in the islands!
We greatly enjoyed our week on St. John, the stay in Casa YaYa, and the additional rental of their truck. The home was as advertised...very clean, in great shape, and awesome views from high on the hillside above Coral Bay. Everything worked, having chairs, snorkel gear, and coolers avaiable was a big help as were the washer/dryer. While we did use the pool, our only mild complaint was it was too cold to stay in.for long. Otherwise, we enjoyed St. John a ton, went to many beaches, saw lots of fish, turtles, rays, even a barracuda! Will be back again...
Upon arriving you will be blown away by the views. Our group consisted of three generations which included a one-year old. The house was well-outfitted and safe. Loved the laundry out back and shed with beach chairs and tons of snorkel gear. Owner super responsive and helpful- especially in getting the tv up and running for the Superbowl!
We spent 5 wonderful days at Casa Yaya with our friends and their family from college. We had kids ranging from 3-10 with us. They absolutely loved the pool, and the view had to be one of the best on the island. We definitely recommend renting the truck as well. It was so nice for all 9 of us to be able to fit in one vehicle. Jeff was very responsive with questions we had and coordinating our arrival and departure. This vacation was one for the books and one that our kids will remember forever!
First, the views are amazing. Rising with sun or laying down at night is a complete sensory experience when you are outside. The roosters crowing in the morning or the frogs singing to the moon complement what is perfect tropical island vista. The inside of the house is comfortable, clean, and has all the household items you need when traveling this far away. The laundry machines helped make sure the family could pack light. Gated entrance completes the feel of returning to an oasis. Family is already asking when we can go back to Casa YaYa!
Stunning replicated views enjoyed on large comfortable deck.
Views just as represented. Expansive deck with pool.Comfortable king rooms / en-suite bath rooms.Need filtered water for drinking water (common for island).Loft too steep ladder for small kids. Fine for 10 years or so. If you trust kids with climbing a high dive ladder, then they are fine for here.Make sure you rent an SUV for rough road clearance. Highly recommend.
This home and view is even more amazing than the pictures ! Casa YaYa is truly a taste of paradise. The home was immaculate, and very well stocked in the bathrooms, and kitchen. Jeff did an amazing job of making sure everything was taken care of for us, and gave us many helpful suggestions during the time we were there as far as the best beaches to go to (since it was a little bit windy), the best restaurants near the airport, and sites to see. We will definitely be back !
Casa YaYa was just the right speed for our family, which loves privacy and relaxation on vacation. We picked the house for its location and view, both of which were as good as advertised. We all spent as much time as possible out on the deck, and more than one nap was taken in the rope hammocks during afternoon siesta time. At this time of year (April), the breezes were cool and wonderful. The only thing folks need to be aware of is that the loft is not a sleeping option for young kids. Our 5yo (who is very brave for her age) was too afraid of the ladder to make the ascent, and even our 11yo refused to do it more than once. But they both loved the house, and we are definitely planning to go back.
We had the very best week at Casa YaYa. The pictures truly do not do it justice. The house itself is clean, comfortable and very well stocked with everything from kitchen items to beach toys. The outside area is also great -gorgeous pool, very comfortable outdoor furniture and million dollar views. Jeff, the owner, was very responsive as well. The only thing that was a bit of a challenge was the loft- it’s definitely a very steep ladder and then hopping over the opening to the loft at the top. We made it work with the two downstairs bedrooms just fine, but if that’s not an option for your group it’s just something to keep in mind, but in no way diminished our week. Would absolutely recommend a stay at Casa Yaya!
