This stunning villa is home to 7 beautifully appointed apartments — and this listing is for one private apartment within the villa. All photos displayed accurately represent the exact apartment you will be staying in upon booking. No surprises — just paradise! 🌴 🚗 Parking Notice Villa Island Paradise has 3 parking spots available in front of the property, as well as street parking nearby — giving you plenty of convenient options! Please note that parking spots are shared across the villa and are not assigned to any individual unit, so we're unable to guarantee availability. We recommend having a backup plan, but in our experience there's almost always somewhere close by to park! 🚶‍♂️ Safety Notice: Walking to Cruz Bay If you plan to walk from the property into Cruz Bay downtown, please be aware that there are no sidewalks along the route. You will be walking along the side of the road, so we strongly urge all guests to stay alert, walk single file, and be extra cautious of passing traffic — especially at night. It's a beautiful walk, but your safety is our top priority! 🙏 You may occasionally hear Claudio, our neighborhood rooster 🐔 — some guests consider themselves lucky to catch his sunrise serenade.
