My recent stay at Mare Blu Villa was an unforgettable experience that far exceeded all my expectations for a luxury vacation. This opulent oceanfront villa in St. John offered not just comfort but extraordinary embrace of beauty and tranquility. March weather in St. John was perfect, with clear sunny skies and a gentle ocean breeze, which made every day at the villa purely delightful. The infinity edge pool, blending into the horizon, became my serene retreat. Lounging by the pool, I was treated to the villa’s breathtaking ocean views, which were nothing short of spectacular. The sight of the sun dipping below the ocean in the evening was a daily spectacle I looked forward to. The villa itself is just a short drive from some of the world’s top beach’s, which promised and delivered crystal-clean waters and pristine sands. Despite the allure of these famous beach’s, the luxury and comfort of Mare Blu made it tempting to stay put and soak in the peaceful atmosphere. Every aspect of the villa, from its spacious and elegantly furnished interiors to its expansive terraces, seemed designed to ensure that guests would never want to leave. As my stay came to an end, I found myself wishing I could linger longer in what felt like a slice of paradise. Mare Blu is not just a place to stay, it is a destination in itself, promising a perfect blend of natural beauty, luxury and relaxation. It is a special place we hope to visit again soon!

In January, my husband and I spent a week at Mare Blu with several other couples. I was absolutely awestruck the first time I set foot in this striking vacation home. Everywhere you look there are spectacular ocean views framed in brilliant color by a rambling garden of native plants. These stunning views not only extended to our bedroom with the private screened porch but beyond to our luxurious bathroom with the outdoor shower. Every room is beautifully furnished and decorated yet sill inviting and comfortable. And you can't have too many cooks in the kitchen here. The kitchen is big, beautiful and has every imaginable moder convenience, including two dishwashers and every pot, pan, gadget, and utensil one could ever need or want..and then some. I loved this kitchen so much that it actually inspired me to bake on my vacation, an unprecedented event. At the center of Mare Blu is an enormous outdoor patio filled with cozy lounge chairs, chaises and couches We spent much of our time in this wonderful space...reading, swimming, eating and socializing while taking in the beauty of the Caribbean. My husband, beer in hand, found his personal heaven-on-earth while watching football on the outdoor big screen from a float in the pool. "It doesn't get better than this" he said. Every evening, we listened to music blended frozen drinks and gathered around the big patio dining table for our version of happy hour...happy hourZZZ! This is the ultimate vacation house. The only negative about our stay at Mare Blu is that...it came to an end. Read More...

Pictures can't do this fabulous villa justice! Everything is absolutely perfect from the amazing lounge chairs by the infinity pool to the decor and artwork. This contemporary villa is made for relaxation in the best of style. The bedrooms are super comfortable, the linens are plush, each bedroom has its own private bath and doors you can open to feel the ocean breezes. The kitchens, both outdoor and indoor are expertly stocked with all necessities. The entertainment system is great and adds to the overall experience. One of our favorite things about Mare Blu is that from every room and the patio the view of the Caribbean is spectacular. We can't say enough about the vacation we had at Mare Blu. As if the fabulous house and great location on St. John isn't enough, the landscaping is awesome, too. We even had fresh limes from the tree in our drinks. No detail is forgotten here - we highly recommend this property. Read More...

PERFECT LOCATION FOR TWO FAMILIES OR MULTIPLE COUPLES! We stayed here the week of July 4th. We could not have been happier.The house has everything: infinity pool, tv's everywhere (although we rarely used them, we would rather look out at the ocean), fully appointed kitchen, including ice maker, multiple stoves and dishwashers. Anything you would need was there, pool floats, beach chairs, coolers. This is the house you would build if you had the money, nothing was overlooked. Read More...

My family stayed at Mare Blu in the Spring of 2024 and we had an amazing time! For anyone looking for a larger vacation home in the US Virgin Islands, you have found one of the best! From booking through our check-out, staying at Mare Blu was an excellent experience. This luxurious and expansive home matches the beauty of St. John and gives you everything you could want. My family had an amazing time, and we will be back! Booking of Mare Blu is handled through their custom website, https://www.marebluvilla.com/, and is streamlined and efficient. Booking information, your travel itinerary, payments, house information, and island information is handled on this website. The houses’ owner, Teri, personally responds to any questions you have very quickly and is very friendly. This fills you with a lot of confidence and eases any concerns you may have regarding getting to the home on St. John and staying there. When arriving in the US Virgin Islands, Mar Blu has a dedicated and friendly concierge, who lives on St. John, and is personally responsible for handling any questions, concerns, or requests you may have. They will meet you at the St. John ferry, guide you to the home, walk you through the property, show you the many features of the home, give you assistance with your luggage, and help getting you settled. During your entire stay this person is a phone call or text away from giving you help with anything you need. They also give you resident-level information on restaurants, shops, beaches, and activities on the island. You get the best inside information on where to go and what to do to make your stay on the island the best it could possibly be. We loved this! Once at Mare Blu, the home itself is amazing. The home is very spacious and fit my family, eight adults and three children, comfortably with plenty of room. Mare Blu sits on a large hill along the coast of Monte Bay on St. John. You have an unobstructed, southern view of the ocean that simply is breathtaking. Every room on the property has this amazing view and there are no “bad rooms”. So, no matter what bedroom you stay in you are guaranteed an amazing view. The bedrooms are spread-out along the property with plenty of spaces for you to relax and enjoy the sunshine. There is plenty of room for everyone in your party to gather, eat, relax in the sunshine, play games, or whatever you wish. There are also many secluded areas on the property where you can enjoy some personal time away from your party if you wish. Each bedroom is spacious, clean, and well equipped with plenty of fresh bedding and towels. You also have dedicated satellite TVs, but I don’t think anyone in my party used them as we were often outside. Near the center of the property, you have the indoor and outdoor kitchen, large grill, a huge indoor Great Room, the infinity pool, and outdoor game and TV area. Using the outdoor entertainment area you can watch a sporting event, listen to music, or watch a movie while at the same time swimming in the pool! The sports fans in my family loved this as they could watch March Madness while lounging in the pool! The incredibly spacious Great Room also can open up, giving you plenty of fresh air (with screened doors). We cooked and grilled a decent amount at the home and had plenty of space to eat, talk, and relax. The kitchen’s pantry is huge and fit all of our groceries. Near the center of the property, you also have a laundry room with large washer and dryer and plenty of room to fold or air-dry clothes. The pool area has plenty of pool towels and pool toys for the kids. Throughout the property you will have a private wireless network (Wi-Fi) which handled the many phones and tablets my family brought. Slow wireless was not an issue. Air conditioning worked very well, and you can easily control the temperature in every room. You will also find ceiling fans throughout the property. In the evening the property is gorgeous as there is plenty of outdoor and pool lighting. The various stairwells on the property have in-stair lighting so you won’t miss a step. Many of my family members loved taking an evening swim and looking up at the stars. Being away from large cities gives you some excellent star gazing! We felt very safe and secure when staying at Mare Blu. The home has a gated entrance that can only be opened via a keypad (one keypad at the gate and another near the parking area). Past the gate there is a private driveway the leads down to a parking area. The concrete driveway is steep, but, is wide and well-lit at night. The parking area fit our three rental cars without issue. You will also find the outdoor shower in this parking area, and it perfectly located for washing all the sand off you, toys, and everything else before you head to your room. The home is surrounded by several acres of tropical woods and due to the steep angle is only accessible via the gated driveway. When we decided to head to the beach, the home has beach chairs, beach umbrellas, beach toys for the kids, and coolers. There is a dedicated ice machine near the outdoor kitchen for filling your cooler with ice before heading out. When you get back from the beach there is a conveniently placed outdoor shower to wash off any sand you may have picked up while you are out. This was helpful especially with a bunch of sandy kids! In summary, our stay at Mare Blu was everything we could have hoped for. This amazing and luxurious home gives you everything you are looking for in a Caribbean vacation. The expansive and incredibly well-maintained property gives you privacy and luxury. With a dedicated owner and a professional and friendly support staff you will have every one of your needs met. I am confident that any family will have an amazing time here and my family will most certainly be back! Eric Miller Jr. Belmont, North Carolina Read More...

FANTASTIC FAMILY RENTAL!!! This gorgeous house was very spacious and extremely well equipped-perfect for our extended family vacation. The outdoor living spaces were wonderful for enjoying the incredible views and island breezes-we ate every meal outside. The design, decor and furnishings were top notch-it was clear that much thought went into every design decision. The kitchen was amazing, perfectly planned and equipped with everything we needed to create delicious meals. We loved spending time in the pool and lounge area. The villa is perfectly situated close to town and beaches. This was our ninth family trip to St. John-we have stayed in nine different villas on St. John and this one was our favorite!!!

I cannot think of one thing I would change about Mare Blu, not only does it live up to the pictures on the website but it's even more spectacular in person. When I first arrived it literally took my breathe away. The layout of the house is perfect for a group of people; the bedrooms are all equal each with spectacular views. The owners have done a sumptuous job of equipping the house, every time I wanted something it was at my fingertips. We spent all of our time in the beautiful outdoor living area, it was spacious enough for everyone to gather and enjoy each other's company and still feel as one group. The villa is the perfect mix of elegance and causal comfort. I cannot wait until I return to St. John and Mare Blu. Celeste Read More...

Mare Blu was the perfect place for us and our wedding party to stay! First class, comfortable, beautifully and well appointed, spaces to come together or to spend quiet time...all with ever changing views of Rendezvous Bay or the Milky Way. We used recommendations from the Mare Blu website to connect with our planner (Paradise Planning), caterer (Passionfruit Chefs), and photographer (Blue Glass Photography)...all of whom exceeded our expectations. Teri and Bernie were very accommodating of our special requests. It was a fantastic week! Teri and Bernie, you and your home are fabulous! Read More...

We had a wonderful vacation at Mare Blu celebrating my husband's retirement! We had 6 adults and 4 children ages 3-6 and had such a good experience here. We had everything we needed and of course had the beautiful view! There was plenty of room for individual family time, but we were mainly together in the common areas... outdoor kitchen area, pool, and gathering areas. Terri could not have been more helpful. We had some dinners in, but two adult dinners out with babysitters and of course some family meals out. We enjoyed the beaches, hikes and local establishments and St. John vibe. We also did two boat trips, 4 hour day trip and 2 hour sunset sail. This was a great family vacation at a special place with a wonderful host! Read More...

Mare Blu was a DREAM our family, as well as two other families, had the pleasure of staying at Mare Blu recently. It was our first time visiting St. John and we were amazed at the beauty and kindness the people of the island showed us! Mare Blu was a dream...absolutely stunning views, gorgeous infinity pool, and every amenity one could possibly ever need during their stay! Our days started with coffee outside overlooking the turquoise sea, followed by a swim in the pool, a trip to the beach for pristine snorkeling and sun loving fun, and ending with a fantastic dinner cooked on the outside kitchen/grill eaten on the outside dinning! Some of our favorites were the outside showers, lounging in the chaise chairs outside and exploring the grounds for crabs and iguanas-many were found and some caught for a quick observation by our boys! We could not have asked for a better place to stay and spend such a wonderful week of memories with dear friends and our family! Thank you Mare Blu for hosting us, we will surely be back! Till we meet again... Read More...
