Casa YaYa boasts stunning views, indoor/outdoor living and the perfect location!

Look no further than Casa YaYa for your perfect St. John retreat. The moment you enter, the view will take your breath away. Casa YaYa boasts one of the prettiest views on the island. Located on the western hillside overlooking beautiful Coral Bay, we’re located in a quiet area with wonderful breezes and full sun until mid to late afternoon. If privacy is what you desire, this is the villa for you.

If you ever decide to come inside, the comfort and décor will envelop you and have you feeling relaxed and rejuvenated. This one level villa is unique for its large 10-foot-high openings along the entire east side allowing beautiful sunshine and cooling breezes to invade the villa. The view from each room is unparalleled. It boasts a large great room and kitchen. The two master bedrooms are located on opposite sides of the great room for maximum privacy. Each air-conditioned master bedroom features a king-sized bed and affords the same spectacular view as the great room. Both bathrooms have outdoor showers that are highly desired in this tropical climate.

The roomy loft is open to the great room during the day but has a room-dividing curtain that you can close at night to enhance privacy and allow the AC to keep the loft nice and cool. There are two bunk beds (twin over twin w/ a twin trundle, and a twin over full) allowing up to 6 to sleep in total AC comfort. Please note: the loft is accessed by a barn-style ladder not a staircase and is not recommended for younger children or older adults. This set-up makes Casa YaYa perfect for two families.

Enjoy the privacy that this villa has to offer while lounging in the crystal blue waters of the 20x12x5 pool. Sunbathe on the spacious sun deck. All of this is possible as you take in the view of Coral Bay, Tortola and the Sir Francis Drake Passage to Virgin Gorda. Don't forget to watch the sunrise and moonrise which are visible from every room in the house.

Casa YaYa has a gated driveway, beyond which offers a garden rich with native plants and many different species of palm trees.

Located in Coral Bay, where many of the locals choose to live, we are in close proximity to comfortable island dining whether you are looking for the very casual to more upscale. Situated perfectly between the quieter eastern beaches and the world-famous north shore beaches, Casa YaYa is only minutes from each. Hiking trails abound and are also only minutes away. A night out in Cruz Bay, dining and shopping, is just a short (but curvy) 25-minute drive on island roads where speeds are rarely over 20 miles per hour. The island is two-thirds National Park land and therefore protected from over-development.

Completely rebuilt and refurnished following hurricanes Irma and Maria in 2017, Casa YaYa is one of the nicest properties on the island located in one of the best spots.

Casa YaYa will not disappoint and will leave you dreaming of your return!

We now offer a rental truck as well for an additional fee. A custom-built Toyota Tundra with 4WD and an automatic transmission offers seating for up to 6 in the interior and another four seats in the bed of the truck. These seats are bolted to the frame, have seat belts and a covered canopy overhead. This is the perfect beach vehicle for St. John and allows passengers to fully embrace our warm climate and incredible views. Let us know if you are interested in booking our truck (separate contract and payment).

Our on-Island Coordinator and Staff will ensure that your stay is comfortable and that your needs are met.

**ALL RATES ARE BASED ON FOUR PERSONS. THERE IS A FEE OF $25/PER NIGHT/PER ADDITIONAL GUESTS.

No refunds will be issued after 30 days prior to your arrival day. You may receive a full refund if you cancel 60+ days from the start of your reservation. You may receive a 50% refund if you cancel between 60 and 30 days out from the start of your reservation.

Stunning Views and Great Locale
Upon arriving you will be blown away by the views. Our group consisted of three generations which included a one-year old. The house was well-outfitted and safe. Loved the laundry out back and shed with beach chairs and tons of snorkel gear. Owner super responsive and helpful- especially in getting the tv up and running for the Superbowl!

Great Value!
Reasonable rates for a beautiful place on top of the quiet side of the island. The truck rental was a great value add, especially with the airport pickup/dropoff. Jeff (the host) was super responsive to any and all questions we had, including some great recommendations on restaurants and charters. Still one of my favorite places to visit and I'm sure we'll be back!

Paradise
This home and view is even more amazing than the pictures ! Casa YaYa is truly a taste of paradise. The home was immaculate, and very well stocked in the bathrooms, and kitchen. Jeff did an amazing job of making sure everything was taken care of for us, and gave us many helpful suggestions during the time we were there as far as the best beaches to go to (since it was a little bit windy), the best restaurants near the airport, and sites to see. We will definitely be back !

Casa Yaya is home away from home
This is our second time to stay on this property, and we absolutely love it! Jeff and his team did a phenomenal job of communicating and taking care of us. I highly recommend Casa Yaya as a vacation home if you are thinking about traveling to Saint John. He will not find a better place to stay.

Magical Vacation
We had a fabulous vacation at Casa Yaya. Things we liked the best: The spectacular views, the wonderful breezes, the privacy for two couples traveling together, the convenience to restaurants in Coral Bay, the pool, the view of the stars at night from the deck lounge chairs, the swings. The kitchen was well-equipped, the property was clean, and the property manager was very responsive.

Property was as advertised and very clean. It was exceptionally nice in the evening with the doors opened and letting the breeze come through the house. The property manager also touched base to make sure all needs were met and made several great recommendations for local restaurants.

Beautiful views of Coral Bay
This was our second visit to Casa Yaya. The view from the patio (with pool and dining area) is unbeatable. The air conditioning kept the bedrooms nice and cool. Two of the bedrooms are on the main living level of the house. A loft area (accessible by a ladder) is perfect for kids. We love the Coral Bay area of the island. It isn’t crowded, there are restaurants and a few grocery markets, and so many great natural areas.

Perfect Family Vacation
My family of four stayed at Casa Yaya for a week, and we throughly enjoyed our stay. The house was perfect for our young family (children age 2 and 4). The location was perfect for getting to and from Coral Bay. This was not our first visit to St. John, but this was our first time staying on that side of the island. Staying in Coral Bay was a nice change of pace when compared to staying in Cruz Bay. We highly recommend Casa Yaya, and would most definitely stay again.

Perfect place for a week long getaway.
We loved Casa Yaya. It was just as described, the best part, was the view. It was super clean, the breezes from the patio into the house are just perfect, the privacy is just the best. It was well stocked, we used the beach chairs, towels and smaller coolers everyday while exploring the island. The bed was super comfortable and the fans throughout the house provide plenty of circulating air every where. It was perfect.

An Amazing Villa!!
If you're looking for a very special place to stay on St. John with the most spectacular view that you can imagine, Casa YaYa is definitely the place for you!! We had the good fortune to stay at Casa YaYa April 16 - 23, 2016 and cannot recommend this villa highly enough. The house is beautifully and thoughtfully furnished, Cindy and Bill are very attentive and responsive to their guests' needs and requests, and once you walk out onto the patio/pool area and see the view, you'll wish that you never had to leave!! We thoroughly enjoyed our week there and can't wait to go back!

A beautiful home on a beautiful island
We loved every moment of our Christmas holiday at Casa YaYa. Waking up to beautiful sunrises, early mornings on the deck and evening swims in the pool. Coral Bay is both fun and peaceful. This was a perfect home base for our daily exploring; great location, a couple of markets for supplies and a nice assortment of places to eat and gather. We have so much of the island left to explore and will certainly stay at Casa YaYa when we return. Thank you Cindy and Bill for sharing your beautiful home!

Fantastic House!
We had the very best week at Casa YaYa. The pictures truly do not do it justice. The house itself is clean, comfortable and very well stocked with everything from kitchen items to beach toys. The outside area is also great -gorgeous pool, very comfortable outdoor furniture and million dollar views. Jeff, the owner, was very responsive as well. The only thing that was a bit of a challenge was the loft- it’s definitely a very steep ladder and then hopping over the opening to the loft at the top. We made it work with the two downstairs bedrooms just fine, but if that’s not an option for your group it’s just something to keep in mind, but in no way diminished our week. Would absolutely recommend a stay at Casa Yaya!

Great Villa with Amazing Views
We just finished a wonderful 3 week stay and waking up to the Sunsets each morning was a special treat . The quite Coral Bay location was perfect for us and the beaches are all very close . The large patio and pool made it hard to leave the Villa . The kitchen had everything we needed and the new BQ was great . Our time went too fast so we already have it booked for 3 more weeks . Thank you Cindy for making our stay so easy and we look forward to enjoying your Villa again.

Amazing view!
This was our 4th trip to St John and our first visit to Casa Yaya. The view is amazing and can't be beat. Incredible sunrises! We traveled with our 4 kids and extended family. Outdoor area was great, and the villa is well-stocked with games, beach equipment, etc. (anything you would need during your stay). We love the Coral Bay side of the island. We find it quieter but still has a lot of great eating options, grocery, and a quick drive to the north shore beaches. Owner and property manager were great with communication before and during our stay. Loved it!
