Bella Vita

Bella Vita – Bella Vita invites you to experience the comfort of this villa. Our Villa adorns the shore of secluded and pristine Water Island, located just minutes from beautiful St Thomas and St John in the U.S. Virgin Islands.
The panoramic and beautiful views of the St Thomas harbor and mountains are astounding especially at night when it all twinkles and glistens.

It is very easy to get to Water Island. After landing at Cyril E. King Airport in St. Thomas, take a quick 5 minute taxi ride to Crown Bay Marina and then a 7 minute ferry ride to beautiful Water Island. Water Island is a very special place. The ferry runs on an hourly basis on the hour. Last ferry to Water Island is at 6PM and 9PM on Fridays. For special runs contact Water Island Ferry at 340.690.4159. http://waterislandferry.com/

Basic but good, communication with host not ideal
Bella Vita is exactly as described and pictured. Be aware it is a small studio, adjoined with a larger unit in the same home. The space was fine for me and my two kids. Very nicely and comfortably decorated with a comfy bed and futon, but small: a curtain for bathroom door and no bathroom sink. Communication with the host was, unfortunately, less than ideal. Our flight was delayed and I was afraid we would miss the last ferry so I called but got no response and VM was not set up. So I texted, but got no response. Also, the host did not email or otherwise reach out to let us know the door code in advance, or how important a golf cart rental would be. Fortunately, I had arranged to rent a golf cart anyway, and it was only through Beatrice at Rachel's Rentals (golf carts) that were we able to locate the unit. Then we had no way to get in, however, my son was able to guess the door code. Otherwise, we would not have been able to get inside the unit. Thank goodness Beatrice so kindly offered to drive us to the unit and call the host for us, because this is a remote location and there would have been no other option to return to St. Thomas or find another place to stay that night. Before we guessed the code, we were wondering if we would have to sleep upstairs in the other unclean, but unlocked, unit. Likewise, there were no instructions inside the unit to access the wifi, work the television (which we never could get to work), or work the air conditioner.

Great stay @ Water Island
Close to everything needed on Water Island. Make sure to buy items on the mainland and rent a golf cart. Beautiful property with good value. Many thanks to Lisa for all her help!

Spectacular view
We had so much fun at our little island house. It has everything you need and an awesome view. A short golf cart ride to Honeymoon Beach, which is the best beach on all of St Thomas/Water Island in my opinion.

Great time on Water Island
We loved our stay at this property! We had four people, and it was very comfortable. The views were fantastic, and we loved spending time on the patio. We also liked being close to Heidi's Grill and even joined in playing the local bingo game on Saturday afternoon. Next time here, we will stay longer than 2 nights. It went by too fast!

Water Island Vacay!
We had an awesome time in water island. I do wish that the listing gave more detail about the home being on the top of a very steep rocky hill and there being a requirement for a golf cart. The golf cart rental place sells out daily and we had to keep calling asking for cancellations daily. Luckily we were able to get a cart at the last min each day. It is NOT walking distance to nearby restaurants or bars or the beach. A cart is a requirement!! Also, I was unfamiliar with the island and didn’t realize I needed to take a ferry daily to go to st Thomas. The ferry stops running at 6pm so I wasn’t able to enjoy night life. The property Mgr did make me aware of these things a couple days before I arrived, which it was too late by then. Outside of that, the house and view was absolutely beautiful and I would highly recommend! I will definitely be back! I’m now looking for a vacation property in StThomas!
