Exceeded Expectations

My family and I were lucky enough to stay at this beautiful villa for our 'once-in-a-lifetime' family vacation. There were 16 of us and the space itself was perfect for our group. With 8 bedrooms, each having its own full bath, we were together, yet enjoyed our own privacy as well. Everything in the home was top end. From the mattresses to the cookware we wanted for nothing. And the villa was immaculately clean. We dined in a few of the nights and ate and played cards at the massive dining room table. We made memories here that will last a lifetime. The view from the beautiful living space is breathtaking. There cannot exist many other places in the world with such an amazing view. Stress melted away as you look at the ocean and gorgeous, green Vigin Island landscape and listen to the birds and waves echoing from below. On site, Ann Marie, Calito and Diana were wonderful. Harith and colleagues provided contact information in case we had any issues - which we had none. The communication between myself and all involved was flawless. During the entire process messages were returned immediately. I cannot offer enough accolades and praise for our experience at Eco Serendib. I am hoping to one day return. Gratefully, Maureen M

Absolutely Breathtaking !!

Eco Serendib Villa and Spa was combined with the ultimate luxery and breath taking views. Whether you are and early riser and want to watch the colorful skies as the sun comes up or prefer to look up at the crystal clear night sky and catch a shooting star, Eco Serendib provides it. The high ceilings of the main room with the beautiful interior decor enchants you as you walk in the door. The innovative economically eficient design of the Villa enhances this high quality travel desitination. Each day, we had the ability to freshly pick from the garden a wide variety of organic fruits and vegetables to be prepared with our meals. The satisfaction and reward to harvest these crops was enjoyable for the whole family and savored with every bite! Our week long stay was accompanied by the richness in all aspects that Eco Serendip had to offer! It is a highly recommended destation spot!

Wow

Having been an experienced Virgin Island traveler, I have stayed at many hotels across the islands. I decided to venture off to new territory this visit and contacted Eco Serendib. I was sold by its rich appreciation for the environment and magnificent amenities the villa had to offer, well and the view itself. This was one of the most well kept properties I have ever stayed on, the rooms were spotless, the bathrooms fragment, and the landscape in beautiful condition. One of my favorite aspects of Eco Serendib (after the sunsets and constellations) was its location. A very short drive right to the center of town, about 2 miles from the Weston. Nothing but the best at Eco Serendib, I hope you all make the right decision during your travel

A little piece of heaven.

I've been to St. John a dozen times or so staying at the Westin or other Villas...this year, my family (6 total) pulled the trigger with Eco Serendib Villa & Spa and we're so glad we did. Everything, and I mean everything was absolutely stunning. The views, the amenities, the beds, the care that Harith (owner) puts into the details to ensure his guests have everything imaginable. You want to go to the beach? Eco Serendib has everything you'll need. You want to lay at the villa pool and enjoy the view, go ahead, and enjoy a massage afterwards on site in the beautiful spa. You want a private chef to cook for the family? Done, and you can request the vegetables of your choosing from the on site garden. Truly the best vacation experience of my life. I can't say enough amazing things about Eco Serendib, except that we'll be back and I can't wait to be! - Chris Utterback

Villa fit for a King and Queen

Absolutely in love with this place, we never wanted to leave! Let me just start off with our room…I'm 7 months pregnant and we planned this trip to get away before the baby comes. I haven't slept well in over a month as the uncomfortable stage had begun, the pillows and the mattress in our room had me sleeping like a queen. This villa has many experiences that they will customize to your particular needs, from a nightly sleep experience to a custom grown fresh garden that you can watch grow up to 120 days in advance and will be cooked for you when you get here. This is the ultimate of luxury experiences! The villa from head to toe is gorgeous, the views I would argue are the best on the island. They have everything here you could need from coolers, floats and snorkels…to a fully stocked kitchen and access to private chefs and house manager if you need anything at all. You never have to leave the villa, with your own pool table, life size chess game, the pool and hot tub, on-site spa, this is relaxing and fun at it's best. The suites are to die for, they just scream luxury. Head downstairs to the private spa equipped with a treatment room, sauna, steam and bath, for a spa experience you've never imagined. To top it all off the villa is eco friendly and uses a lot of recycled materials that looks amazing. The gorgeous dining room table is made from recycled wood and poxy, one of the most stunning tables I've seen. The pool and spa tiles are made of recycled windshields and the pathway through the spectacular orchid garden up front is made of recycled soda bottles…even the pool furniture pillows are made of recycled soda cans! It's incredible to see what can be made by recycling!! This villa is top of the top. Hands down coming back next year, even with the baby (they even have all baby accommodations as well). Home away from home!
