ODESSA
Odessa is a three bedroom / three bath private West Indian Style estate by the sea, where the trade winds blow night and day with the sounds of breaking surf and tree frogs. Surrounded by blooming frangipani, bougainvillea, a bay tree and giant cacti, Odessa is only steps away from it's own natural beach.
|
More Info: Great for families or for couples seeking a secluded getaway, Odessa nestles on a hillside directly overlooking Hart Bay. A stone path leads down to excellent hiking, sunning, swimming or snorkeling among exotic coral and tropical fish.
Only five minutes from Cruz Bay with craft shops, groceries, excellent dining, dan

or exploring, Odessa feels like worlds away from civilization.
Stone walls with arched windows, blue and white clapboard, lattice and gingerbread detailing convey classic West Indian charm. Folding French Doors open the entire front of the house to a panorama of sights and sounds of the sea. Gentle off-shore waves and rocks texture the bay.
Curl up with a book in the estate's cozy living room or watch the sun rise over Rendezvous Bay on one of the airy decks. Prepare your meals in a fully equipped kitchen with dishware made by island potters. Dine at the indoor bar or at the outside table.

From the ferry landing in Cruz Bay, the house manager takes you to Odessa and can also help you rent a vehicle for your stay; cabs are available.
