Air bnb: Selah Villa Private Pool/ Huge Balconies
Let’s get into all the spectacular things about The Selah Villa! This villa is located about 15-20 minutes away from the airport. The location of the villa is very private and somewhat secluded- sitting in the top (high top) of the mountains. When booking through Airbnb.com the Host/Superhost will answer all your questions about how to arrange transportation (the cost) to and from the airport, accommodations, and any other inquiries you may have about the property. FYI- The Airbnb host will not release the address until the property is paid in full.
Arriving to the villa, the check-in process was simple. We were able to go right into the villa using a door code from our host which was given to us via email when booking the property.
Selah Villa Features: This spacious villa has 6 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms and a private pool. The entire home was super clean and comfortable, and the house décor was simple yet classic modern-Caribbean.
· Main level- 2 bedrooms with a King size bed, small couch, and private full bathroom, 1 bedroom with a Queen size bed, 1 bedroom with two full size beds and 1 bedroom with 4 bunkbeds. 1 full bathroom and a half bathroom located right outside those rooms.

There are two balcony’s that stretch the entire width of the villa; one on the main level leading out from the dining and living room and the other off the master bedroom suite located on the upper level. The views from both balconies are breathtaking! You can see both the ocean and private pool from the balconies. The kitchen is located on the main level and is fully equipped with two refrigerators and plenty of kitchenware- pots, pans, cups, glasses, and silverware.
On the main level of the villa, you can access the private pool. There is seating outside the pool area with a direct view of the ocean. The pool area is also equipped with a grill if you would like to have a BBQ, we did! We visited a local grocery store, Pueblo Supermarket to stock up on fruit, juices, bread, food etc. Although we shopped at this local supermarket- you can skip the shopping and have the Superhost set up grocery delivery and schedule a private chef/catering services directly to the villa.

St. Thomas is a beautiful island, very relaxing and a great place to visit for a family fun vacation, site seeing and exploration. The beaches are amazing! Coki Point Beach is recommended by locals and is considered one of the most popular beaches on St. Thomas Island. The Selah Villa is an amazing vacation home, the views are spectacular, the activities and local food on the island were enjoyed by both adults and children. The Selah villa is family friendly villa, however there is a no pet policy. We highly recommend St. Thomas for large and small groups.
