Summary:
Sitting atop Maria Bluff, one of the highest points on St John, Maria Bluff Main House welcomes you to unparalleled beauty as soon as you descend the entry stairs. The breathtaking view is considered one of the best in the Caribbean. Having undergone a two year multi-million dollar renovation, Maria Bluff Main House is ready to welcome visitors who want the full luxury experience.
The Space:
The grounds are lush with tropical foliage, swaying palms, and year-round blooming flowers. The vast outdoor areas flow effortlessly with the interior space, with a large outdoor living and dining pavilion, full upper and lower sun decks, an expansive veranda and two wrap-around decks off the bedrooms. All surround the infinity-edge pool featuring a swim up bar with seating. Right next to the pool is the covered outdoor kitchen equipped with a stainless-steel gas grill, sink, fridge and icemaker as well as a seating area. All to take in those mesmerizing Caribbean views.
This magnificent Great House features five bedrooms with distinct personalities and each embodies a particular aspect of the island aesthetic. Each room is spacious with en suite bathrooms and air conditioning. Designer furnishings, as well as incredibly soft bed linens, pillowtop mattresses, and rich cooling down comforters, invite the most restful of sleeps. The state of the art kitchen has all stainless steel appliances - a Wolf gas stove and oven, SubZero refrigerator, ice-maker, microwave and two Bosch dishwashers - and custom imported granite countertops. It is the ultimate chef's kitchen. A 10 person mahogany dining table sits just off the kitchen which also features an island with seating for six. Two living rooms offer plenty of comfortable space for lounging and family night. A state of the art entertainment system including surround sound stereo will delight with indoor and outdoor speakers. The lower living room features a pool table. Wireless high speed internet access is available throughout the house and bedrooms.
