Sea Fans Villa

|
More Info:
Sea Fans" is located on the leeward side of the island so it enjoys gentle breezes with temperatures usually in the low 80's to upper 70's throughout the year. Step off of the property directly onto a clean sandy beach. Because there is a reef a short swim off shore the water laps against the beach making it ideal for children (of all ages). The reef also gives you a very private beach by preventing boaters from being able to come ashore. Under the water a soft, sandy bottom with no coral or sea urchins stretches out a short swim to the reef. Bring your own or rent snorkel gear so that you can discover the wide variety of fish and coral right in your own "back yard".
There are three shaded areas attached to the house for those who prefer a cooler (safer) place to sit, read or sleep. The house is entered through a wide shaded porch. On the beach side of the house (the back) is a large porch with both a dining and sitting area. Beside the house is a Bougainvillea-covered terrace with a stone breakfast dining table for 4. A 20X40 foot pool (the largest in the area) is situated between the covered patio and the beach. This is a rectangular "swimming" pool, not a clever odd-shaped "dipping" pool. A seat-height native stone wall which defines the pool provides a great place to sit as well as safety for the "little ones". At one end of the pool is a below-water bench seat to rest on after doing your laps (or for sipping your favorite frozen drink). Teak lounge chairs and a teak table with umbrella are placed about the Oklahoma stone decking. The grounds are beautifully landscaped with colorful flowers, several varieties of palms, banana, lime and grapefruit trees. Native boulders rest comfortably about the property, directing the various lighted paths to their destination.
Amenities:
"Sea Fans" was designed so that each of the bedrooms is very private. Each hexagonal BR has its own separate entrance, A/C, bathroom and "outdoor" shower (no one can see in but you can watch the sunset over Drake's Channel). There are There are 2 separate beachside bedroom pods and a 2 story, 2 bedroom pod. The second floor BR even has a kitchenette. Each BR has its own large covered terrace with teak furniture. There is a wet bar by the pool, complete with an ice maker and refrigerator.
The main house has a high cathedral roof with 4 ceiling fans and indirect lighting. There is a modern, extremely well equipped kitchen with a dishwasher, microwave oven, toaster oven and refrigerator/freezer with water and ice dispensed through the door. The large center island has a beautiful polished granite top with stools beneath it. The flooring in all living areas is Mexican stone tile. Although "earth tones" are prevalent throughout the interior, bright floral patterns brighten up each room. A glass-top, stone-base dining room table seats 6 comfortably. An L-shaped sitting area just off of the kitchen is set up for easy conversation or to watch TV. A library of books, videos, games and CDs is available for your enjoyment.

About St John, U.S. Virgin Islands - St. John
Of all the islands, St John is probably the most unspoiled, thanks to the contribution of one of the world's best known philanthropists, Laurence Rockefeller. Had it not been for Rockefeller's gift of money and his desire to preserve beautiful St John, the landscape would probably look more commercial, much like the other Virgin Islands.

Caribbean Travel Tip
Entry and Exit Requirements
Entering: Every island in the Caribbean has its own entry requirements. Most countries allow you to visit for up to two or three months if you show proof of U.S. citizenship and a return or onward ticket. Some countries, however, require that you have a valid passport. If you are arriving from an area infected with yellow fever, many Caribbean countries require you to have a certificate of vaccination against yellow fever. Some countries have an airport departure tax of up to $25. For authoritative information on a country's entry and exit requirements and on its customs and currency regulations, contact its embassy, consulate, or tourist office in the United States.
Returning - Caution! Make certain that you can return to the United States with the proof of citizenship that you take with you. Although some Caribbean countries may allow you to enter with only a birth certificate, U.S. Immigration requires that you document both your U.S. citizenship and identity when you reenter the United States.
The best document to prove your U.S. citizenship is a valid U.S. passport. Other documents of U.S. citizenship include an expired U.S. passport, a certified copy of your birth certificate, a Certificate of Naturalization , a Certificate of Citizenship , or a Report of Birth Abroad of a U.S. Citizen.
To prove your identity, either a valid driver's license or a government identification card that includes a photo or a physical description is acceptable.
If you lose or have your U.S. passport stolen while overseas, report it immediately to the local police and the nearest U.S. embassy or consulate. A lost or stolen birth certificate or driver's license cannot be replaced outside the United States. There are several countries, most notably Barbados, the Dominican Republic, Grenada, Haiti, and Jamaica, where airlines have consistently refused to board American citizens with insufficient proof of U.S. citizenship. The resulting delays can be inconvenient as well as expensive.
