Summerwind – 4-Bedroom Villa with Private Pool & Panoramic Coral Bay Views

Perched approximately 1,000 feet above sea level on Bordeaux Mountain, St. John, Summerwind is a stunning 4-bedroom, 4.5-bath vacation villa offering exceptional privacy, breathtaking Caribbean views, and a private pool and hot tub. Surrounded by lush tropical greenery, this secluded St. John villa overlooks Coral Bay, St. John’s East End, and the British Virgin Islands, with spectacular views stretching toward Tortola, Virgin Gorda, and beyond.

Designed for guests seeking a peaceful tropical retreat, Summerwind combines contemporary island style with comfortable indoor and outdoor living. The villa features four air-conditioned bedrooms, four private bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, spacious living and dining areas, a private swimming pool, hot tub, covered outdoor living space, and sweeping down-island views. A beautiful stone staircase leads from the driveway to the main house, where the first glimpse of the Caribbean sets the tone for an unforgettable St. John vacation.

My family and I had an incredible time at Summerwinds. Great views and perfect for my family.
10 / 10Outstanding·Mar 2024
Beautiful serene setting on Bordeaux Mountain with easy access to Coral Bay. Gorgeous sunrises, great breeze and relaxing nightly sounds of the rainforest. The pictures on the listing don’t fully capture the beauty of the property and the awe inspiring views of the British VIs. Just to note, all of the bedrooms are only accessible from separate exterior doors. Great for us but worth noting.

The house is beautiful, clean comfortable, well stocked and amazing views. One of the best homes and locations we ever rented in St John. Perfect week. Thank you!
