Property Features
This rental is designed as an eco-friendly villa built for fun, families, flexibility, nature, health, and, finally and most importantly, life renewal. Your stay will rest the soul, invigorate the body, and restore the spirit. As you enter the villa through massive double-doors, you will be engulfed by a picturesque all-encompassing view of Francis Bay. Walking further through 14-foot opening sliders will transport you to an expansive pool patio that, again, provides tremendous views of the Bay from every corner and lounge chair. The villa’s rooms are all located within one structure for family and friendly living, but, through quality construction and design, privacy and quiet are maintained. For the athletically inclined, an exercise room is offered, and the saltwater, low chemical pool incorporates in its design a 54-foot-long lap lane. After 8 wide steps up to a ramp leading to the front door and 5 short steps down from the entryway, the entire first floor remains flat, especially helpful for physically challenged guests. This includes the Great Room, kitchen, dining areas, porch, one bedroom, an exercise room, and the outdoor deck and pool. For sun-worshippers, there is plenty of room poolside for fantastic tanning. But for those desiring various degrees of sun protection, the villa’s deck also offers a completely covered but still open area along with a portion topped by a trellis. And for nighttime outdoor lounging and eating free of insects, a screened-in porch with sliders abuts the dining room. For those interested in learning more about Green Energy Conservation, this home is one of only two rental villas on the island to earn Island Green Living Association’s 5 Star Tropical Green Building Certification. The house utilizes low solar gain, low-E glass throughout together with LED and CFL lighting, Energy Star Appliances and TVs, low flow Moen Water Sense plumbing fixtures, Toto dual flush toilets, individually controlled Mitsubishi high SEER-rated ductless air-conditioning units, solar heated domestic hot water, and a solar reflective Kynar painted metal roof sitting over a thermal reflective blanket and fiberboard insulation. The entire villa is powered by ground-mounted photovoltaic arrays situated on land just below the structure. Temporary loss of electricity to the villa due to St. John's utility power outage is remedied by a large generator on-premises. Continuing in the Green vein, the villa utilizes organic-based fertilizer for its landscaping and the mildest forms of insecticide for pest control.
