"We really enjoyed
our time at this villa. Everything we need and want when traveling
is there, including internet. The beds are hands down the most
comfortable I have ever been in, in my life and the views from
the porch in the morning are beautiful. I walked to the beach,
brought picnics and went swimming just minutes from the house.
The weather was warm and sunny yet the house has AC which is
really nice in the Caribbean. If you are looking for a quite,
comfortable island villa, stay at Kamabesu, its fantastic!"

Villa, pronounced kuh-Mä’-beh- soo’, overlooking
quiet Fish Bay on tranquil St. John in the US Virgin
Islands, is the perfect place to relax and unwind. The screen
enclosed
verandah offers stunning views of Fish Bay on St. John’s
south shore and refreshing tropical breezes keeping the temperatures
at bay.
Kamabesu is in a private residential location only
minutes to the walking paths of Reef Bay, Ditleff Point, Fish
Bay and Klein Bay beaches. The shallow reefs and shoals in these
waters offers great snorkeling making them a must see during your
visit. St. John is noted for the fine white sand beaches on its
north shore: Hawksnest, Trunk, Cinnamon, Maho
and Francis Bays just a short 10 to 15 minute drive. Kamabesu
is only minutes from downtown Cruz Bay, the ferry dock, grocery
shopping at the Market Place, multiple restaurants and the fine
shops of Mongoose Junction and Wharfside Village. Kamabesu is
conveniently located near all of the island services yet off the
beaten path affording you peaceful and serene accommodations.
Expertly decorated, Kamabesu
offers a relaxed atmosphere with all the comforts. This recently
refurnished interior reflects the best of Caribbean simplicity
in taste and design.

"Kamabesu - hard to pronounce but easy to fall in love with! We adore this villa so much, we’ve been back twice. While we enjoy sampling the local cuisine, we also enjoy preparing our own meals with the fresh fish that is available daily. The kitchen at Kamebesu is generously equipped to handle anything from a gourmet meal to a grilled cheese sandwich. The island has the best beaches we’ve seen ANYWHERE but we’re just as likely to relax on the expansive screened in porch while enjoying the view of Fish Bay. We’re already counting the days to our next visit! Make sure to pack light, all you need is your bathing suit, a pair of sandals & sunscreen; the hosts have thought of everything else."

“What
an amazing place to stay...I loved it. The owners of this property
are the most hospitable family
in the world. The home is secluded
but close enough to the ferry, town and beaches!”
