Villa South Palm is located in the exclusive Virgin Grand Estates, which is a neighborhood of recently built, high quality, multi million dollar vacation homes. Villa South Palm sits at an elevation of about 290 feet with very pretty views of Great Cruz Bay, the Caribbean Sea, St. Thomas, and other islands off in the distance. You’ll also enjoy colorful sunset views and the twinkling lights of St. Thomas at night. As of November of 2006, Villa South Palm is the only house on its drive and it has no abutting neighbors. This is a very peaceful and private location with very little traffic and discreet, clothing optional sunbathing. This is also a villa for sun lover's, with sun on the pool deck from early morning to sunset. It is a short drive to the restaurants and shops at the Westin Beach Resort. The many restaurants, bars, shops, and other delights of the village of Cruz Bay are a 10-15 minute drive, entirely on paved roads. Villa South Palm has been four years in the planning and construction. Villa South Palm is located above the Westin Beach Resort in the prestigious Virgin Grand Estates. At Villa South Palm, you will enjoy beautiful views of Great Cruz Bay and the Caribbean Sea, with changing hues, as the sun moves across the sky. Evenings display fiery, golden sunsets and the twinkling lights of St. Thomas. The Villa owners, custom homebuilders from St. John Indiana, are pleased to share their piece of Caribbean paradise with the world. Villa South Palm is truly magnificent! Villa South Palm’s architecure and design are the inspiration of stateside professional homebuilders who spent many years planning this home, which was completed in the summer of 2006. The attractive and functional 3 level design seen here is somewhat similar to the design of its popular Virgin Grand neighbor, Vista Caribe. Villa South Palm has multiple exterior rooflines, but the 2,800 sq. ft. interior is all under one roof. The design incorporates many classic architectural features such as tiled roofs, beamed cathedral ceilings, coral stone floors, doric columns, French doors under arched windows, 750 sq. ft. covered verandah, and a 1,100 sq. ft. antique brick pool deck. You park above the house and descend stairs to the main level and enter into the great room. The kitchen, powder room, and dining areas adjoin the great room, and multiple French doors open to the tiled and covered decks. Off the deck, exterior stairs lead down a half level to the pool and an 1,100 sq. ft. brick sun deck. There is one bedroom/bath and private balcony on the main level, and a second bedroom/bath and private balcony is on the 3rd level. The other two master bedrooms are on the lower level and open to a sun terrace that is below the pool level. All four bedrooms are accessed by interior stairs and the entire site is colorfully landscaped with a vibrant array of tropical vegetation. A very clever site and building plan that makes Villa South Palm one of the quietest, most peaceful and private sites within the exclusive Virgin Grand Estates. South Palm was designed with families in mind, with all the bedrooms under one roof, interior stairs and two bedrooms at ground level. This is also an excellent home for 2-4 couples, or honeymooners or lovers looking for some extra privacy. Weddings are welcome and this would be a great function house because the condos and hotel rooms of the Westin are below you. Overall, South Palm is a villa that shows meticulous planning and excellent taste in the design and construction of the house and its surroundings. Villa South Palm was designed to be a splendid vacation home, and it succeeds.
