Skyway Villa

St John vacation rental Skyway

Skyway, a new 5 bedroom, 5 bath, beautifully landscaped home on Gifft Hill offers both privacy and convenience to Cruz Bay and the north shore beaches.

As the sun sets before you at dusk, the heavenly show begins. A virtual planetarium unfolds each evening overhead. Quote from a guest: "This house certainly has a picture post card view." The 180 degree view includes St. Croix to the south, Pillsbury Sound, St Thomas and surrounding islands to the west and north. Puerto Rico, Culebra and Vieques are also in the western view. Considered the best sunset view on the island."
