Jewel's View

The name of this location is correct - it is a stunning view and a jewel among so many other rentals on St. John. The interior of the villa is clean, lovely, and beautiful. The staff of Antares was unrelentingly helpful and communicative, they went out of their way to bless us with their hospitality. We couldn't stop raving about this villa or this island to everyone we met, or have spoken with since.

Thank you Dina. We are so glad you enjoyed your time on island at Jewel's View! Truly a hidden gem in Coral Bay. You were great guests and we would love to welcome you back again soon!

We had a wonderful time! For future guests reading reviews: this place has all the amenities you need. The outdoor shower is actually a pleasure. The ac and fan were more than enough to keep the bedroom nice and cold. The place can get humid, but if you have the fans going and windows open it's not a problem. I enjoyed this Coral Bay location as its away from most tourists who stay in Cruz Bay while still being close to all beaches and hikes.

Thank you Aaron. We are glad you enjoyed your stay at Jewel's View! We agree the location in Coral Bay is hard to beat! And showering under the sun or stars is a great bonus :) Thank you again for letting us be your island hosts on St John. We hope to have you stay with us again soon!

Terrific stay in Coral Bay for my husband and myself. The porch was our favorite, with a beautiful view morning and night. Located at the end of a quiet road we saw lots of the local wildlife in the yard, but also were a quick walk or drive to the Coral Bay restaurants and grocery store! We have always loved the more laid back vibe of Coral Bay vs Cruz Bay, and this house will likely be our new base when we return again! Highly recommend!

Thank you Emma. We are so glad you enjoyed your time on island at Jewel's View! We agree the quiet walk-able road and distance to the heart of Coral Bay is hard to beat. We would love to have Jewel's View be your new home base on St John as well! We look forward to hearing from you again. -Your island hosts

Lovely new build part way up the hillside overlooking Coral Bay harbor. Don't let that incredibly bumpy ride up the drive put you out, it's going to be graded soon, they hope. Make sure you have a 4WD vehicle or you'll be hiking up the last little gravel switchback driveway. Wonderfully welcoming concierge and gifts await you, and all the amenities needed for a beach vacation are provided. We were very happy having breakfast on the porch every morning with the lovely view. Very close to Skinny Legs and Indigo for lunch or dinner.

Thank you Robert for your helpful information! Roads on St John do usually require 4WD no matter what just in case. That being said, We do plan to have the drive grated and hopefully the last curve paved as soon as possible! We are glad you enjoyed your time on island at Jewel's View! We hope to hear from you again soon! -Your Island Hosts

We loved our stay at Jewel's View! A lovely place in a lovely location. We felt warmly welcomed and completely at home. Great spot close to Coral Bay, and a nice view of the Coral Bay harbor, and built into the natural surroundings. It's a perfect spot for a couples getaway! We had a hard time leaving and look forward to staying at Jewel's View again!

Thank you John! We are so glad you enjoyed your time on island at Jewel's View! We look forward to welcoming you back soon as well! -Your Island Hosts

We couldn't think of one negative thing to say. It was our 4th time in St. John, and this may just be the perfect spot for two. From breakfast on the porch with views of Coral Bay, to the AC in the bedroom, to the fact that everything is clean and new and works great, to being able to walk to dinner if you'd like, the list goes on and on. We LOVED it! :)

Thank you Michael for your kind review! We are so glad you enjoyed your time on island at Jewel's View! We agree the new property is the perfect spot for 2! We loved having you as our guests and we hope to welcome you back to Jewel's View soon! -Your Island Hosts

From the minute that I booked our stay at Jewel's View, the team was super responsive with communication! The property itself is absolutely perfect and in the best location (super close to the restaurants and the main roads). The road in to the house is a bit rough, but we had a 4WD Jeep which helped in scaling the last part of the driveway :). This rental is outfitted with literally anything you can think you might need, right down to a hairdryer in the bathroom and beach bags and coolers in the laundry room! The view is absolutely spectacular and I loved that I could see Coral Harbor when I laid in bed! I truly cannot give this place enough stars and CANNOT wait to stay here again!!

Thank you Caitlin! We are so glad you had a wonderful experience on St John at Jewel's View! We agree this new hidden Gem in Coral Bay has everything you need and the location is hard to beat! We are happy that you felt the same! We loved having you as our guests and we can't wait to welcome you back again soon! -Your Island Hosts

Jewel's View was everything we hoped for! The villa is exactly as the photos show. Very clean, nicely decorated with local art, comfortable furniture inside and out, all dishes and appliances you may need. The villa is relatively new, so the side yard is just growing in...but we still saw plenty of lizards, a few deer, and the island donkeys made a visit! Great view of Coral Bay in a nice quiet neighborhood, and within walking distance of Skinny Legs and Rhumb Lines. We will definitely be back!

Thank you Shana! We are so glad you enjoyed your time on island at Jewel's View! The yard has grown in even more since you left as we had a lot of rain! We are happy you still had some island visitors :) We loved having you as our guests and we hope to welcome you back again soon! -Your Island Hosts
