Villa Ixora Sleeps 2-10 people~ 5 bedrooms, 4 baths, pool, AMAZING views!
Villa Ixora is an 'au natural' villa cooled only by the tropical trade winds of the Caribbean.
As you leave the powder white sands and calm turquoise waters of Maho Bay, you travel a national park mountain road bordered by towering palm trees and other lush vegetation. At 1000 feet you ascend a steep private drive and behold a gorgeous Caribbean villa opening to spectacular views; you've arrived at Ixora. Ixora is the former home of the late Stephen Ambrose bestselling author and historian. The HBO series Band of Brothers was based on his book. Your sense of awe will be further enhanced as you step inside Ixora and survey this very beautiful and private, 5-bedroom, 4 bath, luxury home. Ixora consists of 3 traditionally styled buildings connected by decks, tiled walkways, and a garden patio. A 60 foot pool, surrounded by a 75 foot deck, a dining gazebo, abundant deck furniture, and stunning views provide a delightful daytime playground. At night the low voltage site lights, the breathtaking view, tranquil privacy and the fabled Caribbean moonlight all combine to produce an irresistibly romantic, peaceful, and relaxing evening setting.

Excellent property, the pool and hot tub were a plus. The villa was clean and had plenty of accommodations. The location is perfect and all parts of the island are within a short drive. We were very happy with the communication prior to the visit and the check-in process.
We had a wonderful stay at Villa Ixora. The villa made for a very relaxing setting and we enjoyed the beauty of Coral Bay from the deck at the house. Would be a great property for multiple families or families with older children.
Beautiful property on the laid back island. All 7 in our group were impressed with the villa. The kitchen was well stocked with cookware, dishes, & spices. As described a 4 wheeled drive in a must. All enjoyed the fabulous pool
This house exceeded all expectations from the views, the pool, hottub and the beach chairs and convenience of location mid island with a very short trip to the beaches. We loved every minute of our very comfortable stay. Also, the beds were so comfortable and private- away from the main house made our sleep so refreshing. Thanks for allowing us to stay in your island dream.
Beautiful villa, perfect for four ladies ready to get away from the snow. Everything you need for a great stay, comfortable and safe.
We brought in groceries for breakfast and cocktails, ate a lete lunch to avoid driving the winding roads in the dark. Be prepared to rent a jeep to get around, and drive on the left side.
This property is gorgeous! The 3 separate buildings add to the island feel. The main building opens on all sides to enjoy the breezes. The location is great for beaches, Cruz Bay and Coral Bay. Although there is no air conditioning, the breezes and fans lend to a good nights sleep. Waking up to the sunrise over the ocean was delightful! The only issue we had was with the mosquitos - with no AC, the main building was open and it got a bit buggy. The bedrooms have screens, so no issue there. Bring lots of bug spray and enjoy!
We enjoyed our stay at Villa Ixora. The home was well situated for exploring the entire island and felt private despite it's location near a main road. It was clean and the kitchen was well equipped. There were plenty of bath and beach towels as well as coolers and beach chairs.
Our only complaint is that water leaked in around the windows/through the walls in one of the bedrooms every time it rained (which it did for a little bit on several days of our vacation). One night of particularly heavy rain led to water leaking from the ceiling in two different areas (onto our bed and next to our bed onto the floor). From the looks of the ceiling this was not the first time this had occurred. We were told rain might come in from the windows and we should close them if it rained, but this water came in even with the windows closed.
The property manager met us in town and drove ahead to the house, a welcome introduction to St. John's roads. The house is comfortable and well situated for all the activities on Coral Bay side of the island as well as Maho Beach. The pool was perfect for doing laps on rainy days.
We greatly enjoyed our stay. We loved the layout of the three buildings to allow for space and privacy for our large family. We were traveling with 5 young children and felt safe with great visibility of the pool. The views were better than the lookout points we visited. Rent a vehicle that can handle the steep driveway. Staying so close to our favorite beaches made for guaranteed parking and easier mornings.
Our fourth stay at Ixora with our family was every bit as lovely as the previous ones. Amazing spot on Ajax Peak, convenient to great beaches. House works very well for us and grown children, now with grandkids too. Already planning our next trip.
This place was perfect! We had a large group of friends and the space was divided so nicely and the gathering space large enough for everyone. The host was very responsive and helpful.
Our second stay at this property and we thoroughly enjoyed it once again. Love that view and the set up of the property. It is great for a group of people to spread out and have their own space. Would definitely stay here again. The deck is amazing!
It’s was the perfect house for all 10 of my family. The location was great we could easily get anywhere we wanted. We didn’t lack for anything. JP was wonderful checked on us throughout our stay. I would highly recommend this property for anyone.
We loved every part of our stay here. The sleeping areas being separate from the kitchen/living room was perfect for our group to be able to retire to quite while other people enjoyed the pool at night. There was ample room for our group of six but plenty of space for more. Everything was clean and updated. Our host was attentive and helpful and we had everything we needed. The washing machine and 2 dryers made it easier to pack for the trip as we could wash clothes on the go. The views were beautiful and the view from the top of the hill kept things reasonable cool at night. We loved every second of this house and would stay again on our next island visit. The driveway is a bit steep so make sure you have a good jeep.
We went to St. John as a group of two families and had a great one week stay at Ixora. What you see in the pictures is what you get, the property is fantastic and the views are incredible. The managing company does a really good job, are responsive, and are there for the guest if any need arises. Overall, a great vacation for us.
