My husband and I chose to USVI for our tenth wedding anniversary. We were fortunate enough to find Kamabesu for our stay while in St. John. The Tarta family were very hospitable and Kamabesu boasts all the amenities one would need for a wonderful beach vacation. Though we spent most of our days in the beautiful waters of St. John, it was a delight to come home and crawl into our tempurpedic bed! We found Kamabesu a value among the other rentals on the island and feel fortunate we were able to celebrate such a memorable occasion with Kamabesu and the Tarta Family!
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.

The Club House
We had an incredible vacation at Kamabesu! The villa was as comfortable as my home, yet as relaxing as a hotel! We were able to enjoy nights on the town with local cuisine, and other nights going to the local market to return back to the villa for grilling and chilling poolside. The caretakers were wonderful! They were as pleasant and helpful as could be by always suggesting daytrips and activities to do. We look forward to going back!!
