Sol Inclination~ spectacular views, renovated outdoor area, updated throughout!

Sol Inclination

The best view on St. John's South side. Top of the mountain!

Private and secluded yet, only a 10 minute drive to CRUZ BAY!

2023-24 renovated outdoor area, updated throughout!


Sol Inclination is a sun-drenched, secluded, tropical island retreat. This stunning four bedroom four and-a half bath luxury villa (located in Skytop, on the very top of Estate Fish Bay) commands nearly 360 degree sweeping views that will truly leave you breathless. Enjoy captivating sunrises over Ram’s Head and sunsets into Chocolate Hole.

Expansive, panoramic ocean postcard views and the unspoiled greenbelt of the National Park await you at every turn. Few properties on St. John can rival the dramatic natural beauty of this location. Elegant and spacious, Sol Inclination is extraordinarily private, YET less than 3.5 miles to the center of Cruz Bay shopping and dining. This villa's premier quality and exceptional design are evident throughout. Polished granite, travertine and glass mosaic tiles cover all surfaces. Eight-foot mahogany interior doors, Weather Shield mahogany-interior doors and windows (fully screened) and mahogany details throughout lend a warm and rich feel. The custom design, state-of-the-art appliances, fixtures, and electronics found throughout will pamper you.

Travertine tiled stairs and paths wind you through the two masonry buildings and stunning outdoor living areas nestled among native stone formations. Lush, vibrantly colorful landscaping and native stonework surround you.

The two level Great House holds the living, dining and kitchen areas, two equally luxurious master suites, a media room, study, half bath, laundry room, as well as huge upper and lower covered verandas. Just a few steps from the Great House lawn you will find the knife-edge swimming pool, spacious sundecks and Jacuzzi spa – all with forever sunrise to sunset views. The Great House interior living space is 2920 square ft. and the exterior decking is 1700 square ft.

The Guest House interior living space is 1040 square ft. which features the Jungle and Sea Biscuit bedrooms, mahogany kitchenette (sink, microwave, blender and fridge),as well as a large covered veranda. This prestigious villa, with over 5,000 square ft. of living space is ideal for one, or two families.

The living room features 8'x 8' French doors that open out to the covered veranda and large 6’X 4’ windows which take advantage of the views and plenty of sunshine. An oversized sofa covered with plump cushions & pillows - all cozy woven fabrics with pastel green tones and the comfortable wicker barrel chairs invite you to relax. A tall bar cabinet is available for making those tropical delights while you gaze at the sunset or enjoy the see-through fireplace (a rare Caribbean treat!), surrounded by a native stone wall. A distressed wood game table with four chairs will keep you entertained on those stay at home nights or you can keep up on current events from your 32” flat panel LCD TV. A DVD/CD player VCR and stereo with indoor and outdoor speakers complete your entertainment package.

The price is based on the number of people who occupy the property. Nightly rate is based on a 1-4 occupancy. Each additional guest above 4 is charged a per person per nights fee. Please enter the correct TOTAL number of guests including children when booking the property. Only paying guests are allowed on the property.

Wonderful property
This is a wonderful place. Exactly as depicted. Amazing perch in the sky, quality property in every way. Handsome, generous rooms for all. Well stocked kitchen. Great place to hang out every day by the pool, and also a perfectly reasonable starting point for your day of adventures in the national park, Coral Bay, Cruz Bay, wherever. That first drive up to the mountain-top is a bit hairy, but you will get used to it! Be sure to rent a new-er Jeep or Bronco, so you have confidence in your tires and gears and brakes! Very responsive and kind property management as well.

All of the 5 star reviews are well-deserved! The property is spacious and well kept. The views are jaw-dropping. We had ample room for 6 adults and one teen. We arrived to a spotless house and any questions or concerns we had were addressed promptly and professionally. The details were not overlooked — great sheets and towels, access to ample good quality beach chairs, fun selection of games and books, etc. Highly recommend!!

Checking in was so easy. Eric met us at the car rental and we followed him. Driving to the property was a little tough due to curves and steepness. But it was worth it. Would recommend the property

Amazing family vacation!
My husband and I have stayed in multiple homes on the island and this was by far the best yet. The location was perfect, the home was situated on top of the mountain with the most breathtaking views. The house was fully stoked and ready for us to stay without any worry ! I would love to go back again. It was comfortable for myself and another couple ! We had an issue with the showers on the first night and the manager was right on top of it and they were corrected the next morning. Loved it all together! Highly recommended

Heavenly vacation
I traveled w my 2 children and their families in late Nov, 9 of us total. Our stay at Ol Inclination was perfect. Best views on the south side, beautiful property, property managers were great to work with. Very generous supplies of cleaning products and kitchen essentials provided, even sunscreen, Yeti coolers and beach chairs. We loved it at Sol Inclination and will stay again. You need a Jeep to get up the steep roads, but well worth it.

Best Birthday Ever
The trip was booked for my 60th birthday. The property couldn't have been more perfect. The main house is spacious and has a excellent appointed kitchen complete with sharp cutlery and a salad spinner. The cottage was perfect for two adults and two children. The pool was also in constant use with the kids. the hot tub perfect for the adults. The views of course were spectacular. The property manager was accessible and met all of our needs with a prompt response. Thank you to all involved for helping create a memorable stay

My husband and I brought our 6 kids and it was such an incredible experience! The road to the house is a bit much (I legit had a paralyzing panic attack driving up there and I’m used to Colorado mountains) BUT it is so worth the drive! And the panic attack! The VIEWS!! And the owner is a gem to work with! Definitely 100% refer!

Amazing Island Getaway
Amazing views on top of the mountain. The property abuts the national park so half of it faces unspoiled green mountains. It feels like you are staying in the manor house of a vast estate. The house was fully equipped and it was hard to leave it, although the island's beautiful beaches beckoned. I would definitely stay here again. It would make a great family retreat with older children (some steep cliffs) or a group of friends. Like a private resort.

The house and guesthouse are lovely. The kitchen is surprisingly well-equipped. The views are beyond spectacular. The drive up to the house never ceased to be thrilling! We had a couple of minor issues after arrival and James, the manager, could not have been more responsive. On our next trip to St. John we would love to rent this property again.

Amazing home and views
Sol inclination the house itself was beautiful, spacious, well thought out, had every amenity and accessory that you would ever need. The house was magnificently clean. We were a party of 6 people and we never felt crowed. The view from on top of the mountain was second to none. The ride to the house was a little steep but overall and excellent experience and enjoyed by all. The property manager James was always there to answer our questions and take care of business . Made the entire vacation very day and stress free.

Amazing property with fabulous views
My husband and I stayed on this property with our 3 adult sons and 1 significant other. The houses are amazing and the views are spectacular. As previously noted, the drive the first time can be daunting but after the first trip, it quickly becomes routine. The many deck levels provide something for everyone. It was tempting to just stay at the house and relax, hang out in the pool and jacuzzi and enjoy the views. The pictures are a true representation of the house. James was readily available to help with any questions we had with regards to the property or the area. We were happy to return to St. John post-Irma. The island itself is definitely ready for visitors.

The villa is beautiful and very private. It also has the best stocked kitchen of any rental.
Our family of five, including three adult sons, had a wonderful week. The views from the villa are amazing at all times of day. Great sunrises and equally beautiful sunsets. The first drive up to the property was a bit daunting, but was very manageable and quickly became routine. From the pool to the spa to the many porches and sitting areas, we were tempted to just stay put a couple of afternoons/evenings. Also the owners have provided many thoughtful amenities for both the villa and the beach (chairs, coolers, towels, etc). We are big fans of St. John and were happy to come back post-Irma to support it. The villa is in mint condition and showed no signs of damage from the storm. We would definitely recommend and plan to come back again.
