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.

“ 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!”
- Sara MacConnell, New Jersey

"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!"

" 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."
- Cara & Rob Hague, Ohio
