LOCATION. This is an exceptionally private, romantic and picturesque spot high atop the hill that towers over Reef Bay. The magnificent 320 degree views are one of the finest examples of a pristine coastal landscape to be found anywhere in the Virgin Islands. The views include virgin rain forests and Bordeaux Mountain to the north, the "Big Sur" like shoreline of the National Park, from Reef Bay to Lameshur Bay to Ram Head in the east, miles of blue Caribbean and distant St. Croix to the southeast, Ditliff Point, Hart Bay, Dog Rocks, Little and Great St. James, St. Thomas and winter sunsets in the southwest, and a lovely view from your pool. Below you lay the usually deserted, white sand beach at Reef Bay, St. John's most virgin National Park beach where sea turtles still lay their eggs and snorkeling, swimming and beach walks are private and inviting. A one mile hike along the shore - easiest at low tide - brings you to a second beach at the head of Reef Bay while other trails take you on more challenging hikes through the National Park to Lameshur Bay, Bordeaux Mountain or Ram Head. It's a 4 mile drive to Cruz Bay, on what is called (on St. John) a paved road. The road from Cruz Bay dead ends at Reef Bay and very few tourists wander out to this wonderful and still secluded location.

DESIGN. Cocolobo is a 3-level home built on the edge of a rather steep hill that plunges into the Caribbean Sea. You park on the upper level and enter into the 1200 sq/ft. great room, which contains the living, dining and kitchen areas plus a full bath. The great room is surrounded on 3 sides by more than 60' of glass, insuring spectacular views from everywhere. Screened sliding glass doors open to three small viewing decks facing north and east, while other doors open to the 500 sq/ft. sun deck and pool, which face east, south, and southwest. Exterior covered stairs lead to the master bedroom on the middle level. Stairs on both sides of the house lead to the two guest bedrooms on the lower level.

Your view to the southwest includes St. Thomas, and colorful skies at day`s end

LIVING/DINING. The living room is defined by an 18’ beamed cathedral ceiling, walls of glass, overstuffed furniture, and oriental rugs over a terra cotta tiled floor. For entertainment you have a 42” flat screen TV/DVD/VCR, plus an AM/FM stereo with CD, an iPod payer, and Wi-Fi. A full bath with shower is off the living room.

You have three choices for dining. The mahogany table in the dining room seats 6-8 persons, and the antique table in the kitchen seats six. There is also a teak table seating four in the garden patio on the west side of the house.

BEDROOMS. In every bedroom you'll sleep to the sound and view of surf breaking on the beach below you. The large master bedroom (king bed) is one level below the great room, with four closets, 400 sq/ft of room, and a bath with a marvelous view. The two guest bedrooms (queen and twin beds) are smaller (160 sq/ft.) and on a level below the master bedroom. They are accessed by exterior stairs and share a tiled bath that is located between them. All bedrooms have beautiful views and face east for a memorable morning sunrise, while ceiling fans and the trade winds insure excellent ventilation. The third bath is located on the upper level, off the living room.

CARIBBEAN VILLAS' COMMENTS. Cocolobo is a one of a kind villa that offers excellent privacy in a totally peaceful, quiet, and absolutely stunning location. The pristine views are a naturalist’s delight with untouched landscapes, and perfect seascapes. The glorious sunrises, the fiery winter sunsets, and the shimmering moonlit evenings are also outstanding. A usually deserted National Park beach provides the constant background music of breaking surf, while your pool and sun deck are ideal for clothing optional sunbathing.
Cocolobo 3 was formerly owned by two interior designers, a team with an international reputation and an international cliental, while the current owner is also an accomplished designer. The interior décor reflects contributions from all three designers, so this is not your average decor. There’s lots of interesting pieces, the colors are bold, and the accessories are engaging. It all reflects a professional designer’s approach to island living, and we think you’ll agree that the results are comfortable, impressive and well chosen. As they say – it all works.
This villa has an adventuresome character; it’s recommended for the - “wind in your hair, sun on your face, “these unspoiled shorefront views are breathtaking ” - type of guest. Cocolobo has a soft side – overstuffed furniture, handsome antiques, 42’ flat screen TV/DVD, Wi-Fi, 20’ pool, 14 candelabras, etc, but a week or two at Cocolobo is… an adventure. For honeymooners or couples looking for private island romance, or families seeking an away-from-it-all island experience, this is your place.
