Andante by the Sea is just minutes from the small town of Cruz Bay, with its restaurants and shopping, ideally situated on St. John's scenic southeastern shore. Andante is nestled on a shelf carved into the living rock deliberately faced into the cooling trade winds directly above beautiful Hart Bay.
Architected in modified Mediterranean-style with accents of native stone, Andante is unusual in that, while ensuring privacy, its panoramic decks offer spectacular views of both sunrise and sunset – a full 270-degrees from glittering St. Thomas east to Rams head!
There are three large bedrooms, all with sea views, private decks, full baths, and air conditioning. A canopied king-size bed and rattan furnishings with a Victorian flair grace the master bedroom along with a private deck. The two guest bedrooms have twin beds easily converted to comfortable kings and private decks.
The villa is tastefully furnished throughout in contemporary tropical rattan, teak and eclectic accents from around the world. Vaulted cypress-beamed ceilings and overhead fans accent the great room, kitchen, and two upper bedrooms. Andante comes equipped with everything you will need for a relaxed island vacation. The fully-equipped gourmet kitchen includes new stainless steel appliances.
