Caribbean Villas Comments. This top floor Penthouse unit is the tops. Here’s why we like it:
- The location - less than a 5 minute walk from the dock means you can be unpacked and enjoying a Piña Colada in no time, either on your deck, or at the Beach Bar or the Banana Deck!
- For entertainment - a 60” and a 32” flat screen TV, Blu Ray, plus wireless internet and iPod connectivity.
- Located in the front row of Grande Bay - this gives an unobstructed and delightful view of the harbor, plus beautiful sunsets and St Thomas in the west and St John’s sparkling lights at night in the east.
- It’s a Penthouse, and this penthouse design is more like a private villa than a condo unit, with vaulted ceilings plus decks and verandas on three sides of the interior living space.
- There are just a few Penthouse units at Grande Bay, and Buena Vida is one of the very few corner units.
- The owners of Buena Vida also own Oleander Villa, a beautiful and popular 3-bedroom villa in Klein Bay. They have a good understanding of what makes a successful rental home and that knowledge is reflected in Buena Vida.
- Buena Vida is a great rental for honeymooners and couples especially if they prefer not to rent a jeep.
