This was a dream vacation.
Casa Bougainvillea Villa, St. Thomas, USVI villa review
Entering the beautiful gate and the house, and taking in the ocean views and the grounds, I knew this place was for us. It was a secluded home with everything we could ask for.
Nearby, there was shopping, restaurants, and the ferry to St. John for a day trip. The snorkeling right off the private beach was great. There was so much to see and it was very convenient without having to get in the car!
Having a pool right outside the front door was great and so refreshing. The house was nicely furnished and very comfortable. My favorite place was the outdoor porch off the great room. The breathtaking view of the turquoise Caribbean water with the boats passing in the distance is something that I will always remember.
We just loved everything about this villa and look forward to spending another vacation in St. Thomas.

Such a beautiful house on a lovely island.
Casa Bougainvillea Villa, St. Thomas, USVI villa review
I stayed at Casa Bougainvillea the last week of February 2010, and had a fabulous time.
The house is lovely and spacious with a wonderful view of the islands. There is a pool and the beautiful blue waters right outside your door.
Other than going to the grocery store, you don’t have to leave the property. There is a barbeque grill, five bedrooms, TVs, games, books, etc. to keep you entertained. It’s also close to restaurants and shopping. The house is clean and very well maintained with all the amenities you could want.
I have stayed here before and plan to visit St. Thomas and stay at the same place many times. I call it a piece of paradise. I highly recommend a stay here when you need to escape to a little piece of heaven! I can’t wait until my next trip!

Casa Bougainvillea had it all.
Casa Bougainvillea Villa, St. Thomas, USVI villa review
We completely enjoyed our stay at Casa Bougainvillea. The views of the cobalt blue and emerald green bay was absolutely spectacular.
The property itself was gorgeous and meticulously maintained. The beach was steps away, and a coral reef lay just a few more steps from the shore. The snorkeling, swimming, sunning and walks were completely relaxing. I didn’t want to leave!

A piece of paradise
Casa Bougainvillea Villa, St. Thomas, USVI villa review
I’ve stayed at Casa-B six times and each time is better then the next! We usually never leave the property except to shop and occasionally go out to eat. Casa-B has everything, a huge great room with a huge balcony with multi-million dollar views, gorgous landscaping, a great pool and sandy beach with amazing snorkeling at your door. I wish I had Casa-B’s kitchen at my house, we cook and barbeque, sit on the deck with good friends and drink. We’re in our own little world, AMAZING!

It's all there..
Casa Bougainvillea Villa, St. Thomas, USVI villa review
We had a great time. The place is fantastic. I didn’t see another place you can walk from the road, jump in the pool or lay out on your own private beach. I would recommend this place to anyone who wants a great place to go with your whole family or a group of friends.

This is a great villa in a great location!
Casa Bougainvillea Villa, St. Thomas, USVI villa review
We rented Casa Bougainvillea and its next-door neighbor, Sea Star, for a week for a big family get-together.
Casa B. offers a great commons place, privacy for four families (one with children), and a marvellous location. The location is extraordinary.
For the rest of our lives we’ll be debating what was our second-best vacation, because we will always know this was the best.

This is ideal for a family of 9-10!
Casa Bougainvillea Villa, St. Thomas, USVI villa review
The villa was better than ideal, and exceeded our expectations. The kitchen was well equipped for a family that loves to cook, eat and drink. Also, the pool was perfect and the access to the Ritz was ideal - we took advantage of the Hobie Cat and Kayak rentals - and to see the iguanas lounging in the sun.
The Market in Red Hook was fabulous - all the fresh vegetables, fruits, meats and fish you could every want or need. They had a great wine selection, too.
Make sure you charter Captain Christopher’s boat for a day and see all the snorkeling sites in the British VIs. He and first mate Tia were excellent service providers.
Magens Bay/Beach is also recommended. We recommend renting a car so day trips are possible during the week. We even took the ferry over to St. John for a day at the beach (there were great beaches there, too).

We thought we were in Heaven!
Casa Bougainvillea Villa, St. Thomas, USVI villa review
The house was so comfortable with a great floor plan. It was stocked with many items needed on a daily basis, which was a great help.
The location was perfect for going anywhere. There was even a wonderful restaurant/bar within walking distance. The view was beautiful and the beach, although rocky, was perfect with beach chairs for sitting in the sun.
The staff couldn’t have been more helpful. Our group of eight would definitely return to Casa Bougainvillea - especially after seeing the location of many other homes on the island.

A small piece of paradise on the beach with incredible views.
Casa Bougainvillea Villa, St. Thomas, USVI villa review
We had a wonderful time at Casa Bougainvillea.
The layout of the house was great - it was right on the water. There was plenty of room to lounge around on the decks. The snorkeling was phenomenal. The color of the water was unbelieveable.
Also, the gardens were full of different kinds of flowers and there were fountains with waterfalls. It was wonderful having the pool to cool off in. We did a lot of shell picking on the beach. There were three kitchens so no one got in each other’s way. We also barbequed.
The location was great because we were close to lots of great restaurants and were close to the ferry to St. John.
This is the place to stay. We will come back at our next opportunity.

Wright family vacation
Casa Bougainvillea Villa, St. Thomas, USVI villa review
There were 11 of us, youngest 12. Three generations. The villa filled our needs with plenty of space. The pool was well used. Caroline was friendly and very helpful. Because of wind and coral and biting ants we did not use the beach much. Overall the condition and decor was a bit dated, especially for the price. Heard some complaints about condition of kitchen equipment. My husband is in fragile health and wanted to do this trip. We have rented for far less money and comparing the value I think it was overpriced. The wooden decks and sliders have seen better days. Appreciated that bedding and towels were fresh and in good supply.
My experience was fine. I had my daughter do much of the communication.

It was fantastic!
Casa Bougainvillea Villa, St. Thomas, USVI villa review
We had the vacation of a lifetime here. The house is great for a variety of people.
The pool was wonderful. Snorkeling right out of the back door was great. The kitchen was well equipped. The location was excellent.
I can’t think of any downside. You’ll have a great time here.

A very refreshing and relaxing atmosphere.
Casa Bougainvillea Villa, St. Thomas, USVI villa review
We enjoyed the awesome view of the ocean. The coral beach made for interesting finds. The house was very user-friendly and we enjoyed the many features. We also liked its location, being so close to the where the boats left for St. John was great. I’m sure we’ll be back.

Lovely home with beautiful view and spectacular landscaping.
Casa Bougainvillea Villa, St. Thomas, USVI villa review
We thoroughly enjoyed our family getaway at Casa Bougainvillea. Being so close to the ocean was a real treat for we midwesterners—we had a delightful and restful time and appreciated having such a well equipped kitchen as we all love to cook. The landscaping and ambiance of this property was outstanding.
