Shangrila Villa says it all! The villa was incredible, very clean, perfect location, wonderful property. Would absolutely rent this villa again. It is a property and location that you have to experience for yourself to fully understand. I just don’t have the words other than it is even better than the pictures. The villa also had all the amenities you would want and being beachfront & pool was unbeatable.

The property is gorgeous with plenty of amenities. The beach is steps away with 8 lounge chairs waiting for you. There are kayaks, long boards and life jackets located next to them. All snorkeling gear, beach chairs, rolling coolers, umbrellas are provided. The pool and hot tub have multiple options that are just a click away. The outdoor table seats over 12 and there are bar chairs to sit and look over the beach. Inside is a piece of heaven. Everything you can ask for and more. There is a large table, bar seats, smaller table and a breakfast nook. A coffee machine and Keuig are available. Lots of dishes, cups, wine glasses, cooking utensils, pots and pans. There is even a stocked spice rack. Very large seating area with a large TV we never used. Also, in every room there is a TV. We stayed in the Master Suite. Wow! It was very large with a comfy bed, plenty of pillows and room to unpack. The closet is supersized with a ton of hangers. The Master Bathroom has a deep tub that overlooks Chocolate Hole, and a roomy shower. . Private toilet which was super important to me. It is a large counter space with a large vanity and seat. This place could not be any more perfect. We didn’t have many questions because there was a book with all the information you need. We took the boat transportation which was worth the money. They pulled in to Chocolate Hole dropped off our luggage and we were treated, and felt like, VIPS.

We really enjoyed our trip to St John. The Shangri La Villa was perfect!!! Beautiful and fully stocked with anything you may need in terms of appliances, games, wireless outdoor speaker and more. The pool and jacuzzi were the perfect end to our days exploring the island. A boat charter is a must. We swam with turtles in Salt Pond bay and enjoyed the best snorkeling along the rocks (better than Trunk Bay).
