Gorgeous ocean view penthouse/No shared walls/Quick walk to Cruz Bay/Pool!!

Welcome to Palm Breeze Villa! This penthouse sits at the top of Battery Hill providing 360 degree views of the ocean and lush green hillsides. The covered deck provides much needed shade and beautiful ocean views of Cruz Bay. You can marvel at the multiple shades of the crystal clear blue water as you enjoy a morning cup of coffee or cocktail at sunset. You will be right in town so can easily walk to all your favorite restaurants and shops. Because this top floor unit is in a stand alone building you will not have any shared walls- extremely unique within Cruz Bay.

The main bedroom faces Cruz Bay and has marvelous ocean views. The spacious loft has room for four guests, with two twin beds and one queen bed. The AC system has just been upgraded throughout with split AC, including units in both bedroom spaces as well as the main living space. Though with the continuous breeze high on Battery Hill you will may only need to open the windows in the evening to keep cool.

The well appointed kitchen is open to the dining and living areas and have striking ocean views looking towards Turner Bay and beyond. These main living spaces have beautiful vaulted ceilings making it feel spacious, open, and bright.

Although you can manage without a vehicle on St John by taking taxis to the many spectacular beaches and walking to town, we would still recommend renting a vehicle to get the most out of your vacation. There is flat parking for the unit right out front in a dedicated lot. The complex also has a dipping pool the has both a covered area and pool deck for sunning all with ocean views. Beach chairs and other beach and pool accessories are provided for the guests.

Come enjoy our penthouse villa!!

Enjoyed our stay

This condo was perfect for our family of 5. The A/C was great in the bedroom. The A/C for the living area was strong enough to make the condo comfortable. Kitchen was well equipped. Beach supplies (cooler,towels chairs) were provided. The balcony was awesome, great views.Started every morning there with a coffee and finished every night there with a drink listening to music from the Beach Bar below. About an 8 minute walk to Cruz Bay, the hill was manageable. Overall I would definitely choose to stay again. No generator if that is a factor for your stay.

Wonderful property

This was my first Vrbo experience and it was wonderful. The management company was helpful, prompt and friendly. Last min we decided to get a rental car however everywhere was sold out. I called the office and she helped call around and found us a rental. I appreciated that so much. The host was also amazing and helpful. Place was clean and had beautiful views. I will stay again.

Fabulous Penthouse Condo

This condo is wonderful! It has million dollar views and the live music from the Beach Bar drifts up when on the balcony. Allison, the owner, has made lovely updates and plans more. And a fabulous new piece of art was installed during our stay. We were so enchanted that we’ve already booked for three weeks next year! Thanks, Allison!

They thought of everything!

We have stayed on St John for 4 years in a row and this place by far is my favorite! We had everything we needed and then some! The views were amazing, the breezes couldn't be beat, and we loved being so close to Cruz Bay so that we were able to walk to all the restaurants, shops and bars. We will be back! Thank you Allison and St. John Signature Villa and Condos!

Wonderful condo and beautiful views

We enjoyed everything about Palm Breeze! The views were amazing, walking distance to the shops, bars, and car rental. Our greeter at check-in was wonderful as well - very informative! The set-up of the condo was perfect for our family of 5. The loft had 3 beds, one for each teenager, with a "master" bed on the main level. The condo is also well stocked with everything we needed, including beach chairs and towels. All we bought was a few groceries to get us thru the week. Our Jeep rental was a blast getting around the island. And the beaches are the best I've ever been to. Would definitely recommend and stay in again!

The Views - The Location!

This place is fabulous! We've stayed in St. John several times, and the location of this condo is one of the best. The view overlooking Cruz Bay, the quick walk it offered into town, the relaxing pool just below...it really can't be beat. A/C works great, but we only really needed it at night because with all of the windows and being at the top of the ridge, we were able to open up the windows and get fantastic ocean breezes crossing through the unit. There is plenty of parking, beach chairs for guest use, community grill and laundry if needed. We couldn't have asked for a better stay. If you are considering this place, just book it already :) We will be back!

Perfect location! Beautiful views!

Can’t tell you enough great things about this property! Walking distance from all the action (Restaurants, bars, shopping, ferry dock) but high enough where you have wonderful views of Cruz bay and all the boats coming in! Everything was well stocked from beach chairs, coolers, towels, and kitchenware! Just a short drive to the North shore beaches or a short walk down to your pool and BBQ grill! Can’t wait to return! 10/10 would recommend!!

Amazing views and privacy

Top unit on top of Battery Hill affords amazing views of Cruz Bay from Bedroom and patio, and Frank Bay from kitchen. No shared walls and high elevation allows for windows to be open all night! Tough hill when walking from town, but less than 10 minutes to walk to restaurants and taxis.

Gorgeous views, great location

Our family of four really enjoyed staying here. The view of Cruz Bay is amazing! The location is great - just a short walk to downtown. (If you drive, it's OK to drive down Hill Street, but coming back, be sure to drive up past Gallows Point. These are literally the steepest hills I've ever driven on!) Everything was clean, and there were plenty of amenities, as advertised. If I ever make it back to St. John, I'll first check to see if this property is available again.

Fabulous stay!

Drinking Water filtration was a plus. Good to have that piece of mind. Plenty of bath towels and beach towels, 2 beach bags, lots of cleaning supplies. No problems at checkin, two sets of keys was great. Took a little food and left a little. Nice to have salt/pepper and a cooking oil already there!

Palm Breezes, St John

Palm Breezes was the perfect place for our family of 5! Everyone from the owner to the property manager was very helpful. Incredible views of Cruz Bay made even sitting on the balcony feel like a vacation. Condo was well maintained and upgraded and was everything it was advertised to be! An easy walk to town with great dining options plus many open air taxis to take you where ever you want to go. We did not have a bad meal but really like the Banana deck and the Beach Bar! We also had a nice snorkeling trip with Capt Bob on the Spree II. We hope to make this an annual family tradition!
