About this villa rental
Designed by famous local architect Glen Speer and now transformed by famous artist Donald Schnell, known for his comfortable artistic villas with style. Come and see the artist's touch added to this tropical garden paradise. An eight person fine Italian marble stone table and Italian stone tile & statuettes coupled with local island stonework create a unique European & Caribbean atmosphere. The Great Cruz Bay location (see our maps page) offers convenience to shopping, groceries, restaurants and National Park beaches, yet the villa offers unique privacy with the surrounding tropical trees and fauna.
The Beach Estate's pool overlooks Great Cruz Bay and the blue Caribbean Sea of Pillsbury Sound. Deep & luxurious, the pool area is augmented by sconces from the Donald Schnell Studio and edged with Italian marble stone and is just steps away from the property's sandy beach. Island stone planters nurture blooming hibiscus, bougainvillea & other tropical flowers. Snorkeling along the point reveals a variety of fish and an occasional lobster or sea turtle while local White Herons frequent the shoreline.
The "Four Seasons" Italian statues watch over the island stone hot tub and pool area. Italian planters with native island palms and colorful bougainvillea surround you in this peaceful & private island retreat.
The island's spectacular sunsets, views of the blue Caribbean Sea and the night time lights of St. Thomas are all visible from the spacious decks perched on the hill overlooking the tropical gardens and the beach. Island stone pathways weave steps through the garden, home of the endangered species Iguana (harmless fruit & flower eaters), to the sandy beach area. The Beach Estate's pool area offers an additional space for wedding events and other celebration gatherings
Now with five, King master bedroom suites each with a private bath, the villa is perfect for a honeymoon or anniversary couple, five couples or a family with older children. Every bedroom has a an extension phone and satellite television. Two of the bedrooms, and the secondary living space downstairs, have an additional twin bed. (Please be sure the Beach Estate's Caribbean open air design is appropriate for your children's age and family's configuration). The newly completed fourth master bedroom suite & bathroom features sconces from our studio along with island stone & brick accents with Italian travertine floor tile and counter tops.
An eight person fine Italian marble stone table looks down on the private sandy beach area and blossoming bougainvillea.
The upstairs open & breezy living area provides a traditional Caribbean atmosphere and is complemented by the enclosed, secondary living space downstairs. Both offer CD player & access to satellite television.
By night the Estate is magically lit by the handcrafted sconces created by the Donald Schnell Studio. The pool beckons guests to a midnight swim under the stars & the beach area offers an enchanting view of the twinkling night time lights of St. Thomas.

this day was absolutely fabulous! Hospitality was amazing. We would love to stay at another one of Don's properties again. It was just wonderful.

This is a beautiful property with beach access. The owner was very helpful as well as the staff at Artistic Villas. We had a wonderful stay and hope to visit again in the future.

We had an amazing time staying at the Beach Estate. We had a family of 9 and with 5 master suites we felt we had our own private space. We have traveled a lot over the years and the whole family agreed this was the most amazing experience we have had. We explored so many amazing beaches and loved them all but if you are up for a light walk you have to get over to Leinster Bay the snorkeling is amazing! We definitely plan to return again very soon. Thank you Donald for all of your tips and taking care of all of our needs!
