Beautiful views
Beautiful views, upstairs air conditioning was great, bedrooms are downstairs and you go outside to get to lower level and the air conditioning is not great and loud, stuffy so I sleep upstairs on the couch which was fine. We rented a jeep and explored most of the island and Coral Bay was a great location! If the cleaners could wiped down all outside cabinets and such that would be great as dirty finger prints left behind but this is fixable for the next guest!

Incredible Views at Sol La Vie!!
Great place with an amazing view! St. John was a blast, and this was a great place to stay while enjoying the island. Having beach chairs and beach towels provided was a huge plus. Be sure to have a Jeep or similar vehicle to get to the house and around the island. Would definitely stay here again!

Absolute Tropical PARADISE!
We are so thankful to have found Sol La Vie on VRBO! The home was even better than photos or description. It was a peaceful oasis with billion dollar views. Upon arrival, there was the most thoughtful care package of North Shore Deli goodies. We were so hungry after traveling! The home was spotless and had everything we needed & more. The outdoor areas were surreal with lush tropical trees, flowers and huge coconut palm. The home has views from each room. The bedrooms were very comfortable and we slept so good after our days spent snorkeling the different beaches. The flat driveway made for great parking (not something we realized was so important until seeing how so many have to park at other homes)!!! We did not want to leave your beautiful home and will be daydreaming of the next time we can come back to Sol La Vie. PS - James was SO HELPFUL as well as Victor who met us in Cruz Bay and showed us the way to the home and got us settled. Thanks for everything!! ☀️

Beautiful paradise
We stayed here from July 15-20. I can’t say enough. The house is exactly like the pictures. The views were beautiful. We really appreciated the welcome basket with wonderful treats. Communication with the property owners were excellent. The house has everything you could need. We appreciated the beach towels and chairs as it definitely saved us a bit of money. The pool was gorgeous and a great way to spend an evening after a long day at the beach. There is a market and four restaurants within an easy 5 minute drive. The beds were super comfy. We can’t say enough about our wonderful stay

Excellent Accomodations!
If you're looking for a a quieter, more relaxing stay, then this property in Coral Bay is for you! We very much enjoyed our stay here. Comfortable beds, beautifully furnished and decorated, private pool, plus a basket of goodies in the fridge for us! Easy access to Maho Bay and Cinnamon Bay beaches (Cinnamon Bay was our favorite), lots of Sugar Mill ruins to explore nearby. Grouper tacos at Surf Club Cantina and burgers at Skinny Legs were a huge hit! And if you're looking for a little more activity, Cruz Bay is only 25 minutes away. Keep Left!

Unforgettable Views!
My husband & I went alone to celebrate our 15th wedding anniversary. The place felt homey, nicely decorated & your essentials were provided also. They also provided a Keurig & regular coffee maker. The pool was a lifesaver & we enjoyed it very much. The privacy was nice also as the lush landscaping was beautiful & the nature of the outdoors was awesome! We would definitely recommend this home & hope to go back one day. Oh, and the views will never be forgotten!

Spectacular!
We had such a great stay at this property. The property manager did a great job of communicating with us prior to the start or our trip and on the day we arrived. We were escorted to the property, given a tour and absolutely delighted to see a variety of things to eat (hummus with veggies, pasta salad, etc) in the fridge. An absolute blessing after 12+ hours of travel. The property itself was wonderful. We didn’t cook much but the kitchen had everything we needed (minus olive oil). The AC was fantastic after a long day in the sun and the beds were fairly comfortable. The private pool was WONDERFUL and the view is absolutely unreal. We enjoyed watching the various birds and hummingbirds in the trees. The beach chairs and cooler were appreciated and great to take to the beach. Plus the extra beach/pool towels came in handy. The drive is steep but we never had a problem getting up the hills and the property is exceptionally quiet and private. As someone who vacations to get away from people and the hustle and bustle of every day life, this space was absolutely perfect. Can’t wait to come back

Simply amazing!
The views are breath taking. The pictures can never do it justice. We had everything we needed to make our stay perfect. We enjoyed the island itself but couldn't wait to get back to this lovely spot each day. The beds are comfortable. I typically feel like I need to do a little cleaning when we arrive to a rental and that was not the case here. It was clean and comforting. There was great communication throughout the rental and arrival process. We can't wait to come back.

Perfect getaway
Property is spacious and beautiful. The views are every bit as good as the pictures. Location is excellent - on the quieter side of the island. Easy to access the beaches, and the beach chairs and coolers provided by the property were very helpful. Some of the reviews mentioned the road. The property is at the top of a high hill, which is why the views are so spectacular. Put your car in second gear and head up the hill. The cars with automatic transition have the option to switch to manual, which helps give your car the extra push that will make it seem like no big deal to head up the hill. Btw, there are hills like this all over the island, so you’re going to go up and down them anyway when headed to beaches. This place was the perfect home base for a getaway to just relax and enjoy the beaches. There are restaurants nearby too, and there’s no real need to go to the busier Cruz Bay side except for the ferry and if there’s a particular restaurant you want to visit. I’d recommend buying gallons of bottled water for drinking, and bring water bottles for the beaches. A no-doubt 5 star property!

Perfect Spot!
The images of Blue Bay View are what prompted me to book it. It did NOT DISAPPOINT. The views are amazing from all of the decks, the sunroom, and the bedrooms! We were able to see iguanas in the treetops (late afternoons), hermit crabs all over the grounds and didn't have any trouble with bugs being so high on the hillside (I'm assuming). We did get to see many goats and donkeys on the road in and out, and even some goats taking up residence in the property next door under construction. The roads are steep and rough in places, but not as bad as I had read, so fear not when you read other reviews about how scary they are (just make sure you have a jeep :)) This location is perfect, in my opinion, to experience the island YOUR WAY. Coral Bay is quieter than Cruz Bay but Cruz Bay and the beaches are a short drive away. If you want to relax at the end of the day - this is where you want to be. Waking up to coffee and sunrises while listening to the island come alive (and by that I mean roosters and donkeys baying) is one of my favorite takeaways from this trip. JP and the property managers were so easy to work with. We will definitely return to Blue Bay View!

Coral Bay & Bordeaux Mountain Retreat
The steep road led us to Blue Bay View, a clean, pleasant retreat with great accommodations. The villa is private and very clean. The multi-level deck let’s you move to shade or sun, while enjoying an Easterly gorgeous view. It is on the simple side, but fulfills many needs. The vegetation has recovered from the last hurricane. The management team took great care of us. Great for a couple or two and not to far from hiking and snorkeling.

Everything was perfect! We love the quiet and gorgeous view. We are very used to the curvy steep roads as we have been to Coral Bay a week or two for past 10 years. Try local Coral Bay eateries and markets. See you next year God willing.

Incredible view, great house!
Loved our stay here! The check-in and check-out processes were simple, and meeting JP was easy to arrange. The house was clean, and the kitchen had everything needed and then some! The decks had just amazing views, but my favorite was probably waking up each morning and seeing that view right out the window! The pool was too cold to use, but it did look refreshing. :) The stairs between the two levels are outside of the house, but not an issue for us, even made it a little interesting (dare I say fun!) when there was a little rain. The road to the house is steep, yes, but it's what you'd expect on an island like this. The driveway only had a slight incline from the road down to the parking area, and was easy to navigate in and out of. Highly recommend!!

Comfy and cozy with a view
Enjoyed our stay here. House was large enough yet still cozy making it just the right size for 2 couples. Beds were especially comfortable and we loved being able to float around in the pool at the end of the day after hours of snorkeling. The view was beautiful and could be enjoyed from the pool, deck, dining room table and bedrooms equally. Nice touches were the provided toiletries and a delicious welcome snack pack from North Shore Deli. Would stay here again!

We were impressed at how accurate the pictures of the home were when compared to real life. Blue Bay View does not disappoint! The home was very clean and comfortable. It felt like our house within the first day! Upon arrival, we were met by JP from the management company in Cruz Bay and we followed him to the house. This was super helpful for our fist time driving on island. The drive up the mountain is challenging but we were used to it within a day or so. We loved staying in calm Coral Bay. We went to Cruz Bay often but were so happy to relax when we got home. One of our favorite nights was spent grilling dinner at the house, playing tiki toss, and hanging at the pool. If you can get your hands on this house, do it. We are so glad we did!!

Amazing Views
Blue Bay View has the most amazing views of Coral Bay, beautiful sunrises and welcome breezes. The property is exactly as listed. Three levels of outside space was just perfect, upper deck for happy hour, hanging at the pool after a day at the beach and outside dining/BBQ area. The driveway was a little tight, our expert drive-in the group found backing in worked best for us, easier to head out on the next adventure.
