Introducing, and available for rental, St John's newest private luxury vacation villa. Located within the US Virgin Island's National Park boundaries and perched high a top a mountain overlooking the azure waters of the Caribbean, the South Shore Villa is the ultimate in private luxury vacation living. The South Shore Villa is centrally air-conditioned and features four well-appointed bedrooms (all with private bathrooms), a luxurious custom kitchen, a dining room, and a large living room all with panoramic views of the ocean. Of additional interest is the spectacular infinity edge swimming pool with fountains.

This magnificent beachfront villa at exclusive Playa Conchas Chinas is a striking example of the classic Vallarta architecture, set on one of the best beaches and less than one mile south of town.
