  • Waterfront on Great Cruz Bay, this magnificent, NEW estate holds court within an oasis of stately palm trees and a large private pool.
  • The Great Room is graced with high arched windows and artistic stonework crafted in the classic St. John style.
  • White, slipcovered, 'sink-into sofas' and chairs are grouped around the Great Room to accommodate a large party.
  • A mahogany dining table for 14 is flanked by a stunning model yacht in full sail.
  • The large gourmet kitchen with a Viking range, a center island, lots of countertop space for several cooks, and a convenient pass-through window to the outdoor poolside dining area. The kitchen area also offers a wet bar with a beverage cooler and ice machine.
  • Beyond the spacious kitchen is the blue family room, a cheerful space for lounging with a large flat-screen TV and a table for cards or games.
  • Twin mahogany staircases ascend from either side of the family room to À La Mer's upper floor, where five more air-conditioned bedroom/suites overlook the pool and majestic yachts riding at anchor on sparkling Great Cruz Bay.
  • The sumptuous master bath features a double vanity, a separate WC with a bidet, and a semi-alfresco double shower clad in glass tile and travertine.
  • These suites all enjoy central air-conditioning, large ensuite baths tiled in charming designs, and via screened french doors, each has its own balcony...
  • Each of these magnificent bedroom suites have their own unique flair.
  • Outside the Main Villa on the Great Cruz Bay side is À La Mer's shaded poolside terrace, furnished with plush upholstered seating for watching the kids in the pool, reading or napping, and a large round table under a roofed pergola for alfresco meals. The pass-through from the kitchen is incorporated into an adjoining counter lined with bar stools.
  • This expansive outdoor living area also has two gas grills, one of them built into a charming garden patio, a ping-pong table, and a deck lined with cushioned chaise lounges.
  • The pool is absolutely spectacular! It has a four-inch deep shallow shelf, perfect for sun loungers and for small children, a waterfall, and is bordered on the ocean side with a "beach," a strip of white sand set with more chaise lounges and a stone fire pit.
  • Choose between poolside cocktails in the shade or lounging in the sun.  The luxurious outdoor patio has space for all  that you desire.
  • À La Mer's Cottage is off to the side of the Main Villa, and on its upper level, offers a secluded fully-air-conditioned apartment suite, complete with a full kitchen, a bedroom with two queen beds and bath, a double-twin trundle bed in the living area, and a porch outside covered by latticework.
  • No villa is complete with out an island hammock or two to relax in the shade or under the stars.
  • Watch the beautiful colors span across the sky during the tropical sunset over St. Thomas.
  • Watch boats sail in and out of the harbor of Great Cruz Bay.

Situated on over one acre of waterfront land, À La Mer's large-scale design and execution is an artful combination of both colonial West Indies and classic St. John. Every handsome custom detail - mahogany cabinetry hand carved in Honduras, lovely tile design throughout, cypress ceilings, designer island decor, artisan lighting, botanical art prints, and a bounty of excellent features and amenities for guests' enjoyment - makes À La Mer a unique and matchless Caribbean villa experience for families and friends!
