Mermaid Falls Villa is located in upper Peter Bay, and is surrounded by the National Park which creates a wonderful and natural setting. The view sweeps for more than 180 degrees, from sunsets over St. Thomas, Hans Lollick and Lovango Cay in the west, past Jost Van Dyke and Great Thatch in the north, to Tortola in the east. Below are the white sands and turquoise waters of St. John’s legendary north shore.

Mermaid Falls has deeded access (during the day) to the beach at Peter Bay, a white sand beach with tranquil waters and good swimming and snorkeling. Or, if you prefer, it’s less than a 5-minute drive to the world class National Park beaches at Trunk or Cinnamon Bays. It is a 5-10 minute, drive to the celebrated restaurants at the four star Resort at Caneel Bay, and an additional 5 minutes to the restaurants and shops in Cruz Bay.

From the parking area, you enter Mermaid Falls along a very attractive coral stone walkway. The walkway is flanked by towering palm trees and tropical vegetation that flows into a coral stone deck which surrounds a large curved lagoon pool. A seemingly natural waterfall flows into the pool from a rocky outcropping, and the majestic ocean views appear through arches supported by Doric columns. Before you even set foot in this villa you will be struck by its beautiful design and location, and once you walk through Mermaid Falls you will agree that this is definitely one of St John’s Ultra Luxury Villas.
