The villa makes use of low solar gain, low-E glass throughout together with LED lighting and Energy Star appliances and TVs. Low flow WaterSense plumbing fixtures, dual flush toilets, individually controlled high SEER-rated ductless air-conditioning units, solar heated domestic hot water, and a solar reflective metal roof sitting atop a thermal reflective blanket and fiberboard insulation round out the design. The entire villa is powered by ground-mounted photovoltaic arrays situated on land just below the structure. The villa is also equipped with an emergency generator should there be an Island power outage. Continuing in the Green vein, On a Clear Day... utilizes organic-based fertilizer for its landscaping and the mildest forms of insecticide for pest control.
The Interior
The entire interior is enclosed in one structure. Four large bedrooms comprise the sleeping space, three at 308 square feet and the master at 480. Three contain king size beds, the fourth with two twins that can easily be brought together to create king sized sleeping. All bedrooms have ceiling fans, locking safes, secluded balconies, and private baths with dual sinks and tumbled marble showers. Each has an individually controlled air-conditioning unit along with a 40 inch LED TV with Dish Satellite programming, Roku capability, and a Blu-ray disc player.
The kitchen offers Brazilian granite countertops and environment-friendly bamboo cabinetry and is equipped with an ultra-quiet dishwasher, refrigerator/freezer with ice maker, convection oven/range with hood, microwave, and wine cooler. A second icemaker (stand-alone) and refrigerator/freezer are offered for increased capacity. A washer/dryer is available for guests along with a Weber outdoor gas grill. The kitchen has counter seating for 4 and abuts a dining room with seating for 8 to 10.
The Great Room is furnished in contemporary, eco-friendly bamboo/rattan and offers panoramic views of the pool, pool deck, and Francis Bay. A 60 inch LED TV, also with Dish programming, Roku capability, and Blu-ray disc player, is available for your viewing and music pleasure.
An air-conditioned exercise room provides a Bowflex home gym, Sole elliptical machine, and a Concept II rowing ergometer.
All water for the house, including drinking and showering, is filtered through a Sanitron triple filtration system utilizing filters for sediment, taste (charcoal), and microorganism eradication (ultraviolet). The UV system removes bacteria, viruses, parasites, and mold.
High speed Internet is provided by Love City Community Network (LCCN), a 501(c)(3), non-profit initiative initially set up by volunteers in 2017 immediately following Hurricane Irma in order to provide emergency communications for St. John. LCCN is extremely dependable but should connectivity be lost, the villa’s Internet automatically fails over to a backup AT&T cellular connection. Wi-Fi transmits to every room. The house is also equipped with a cellular signal booster system positioned towards St. Thomas. This arrangement serves to stabilize and strengthen incoming and outgoing cellular phone and Internet signals. Additionally, your communications will be via cell towers on St. Thomas and not Tortola, helping to eliminate Tortola roaming charges. Regarding off-property cell phone usage, please consult with your personal cellular carrier regarding its availability and quality in the USVI and particularly on St. John.
Outdoors
A wide pool deck supplies comfortable lounging with incomparable views of Francis Bay below and St. Thomas in the distance. Poolside offers various degrees of sun protection from out and out tanning to partial protection provided by trellises to complete coverage. A low chemical saltwater pool runs 3 foot 4 inches to 4 foot 6 inches in depth and contains a 54 foot long, 7 foot wide lap lane for exercise and an in-pool bench for relaxation. A screened-in porch off the dining room offers space for bug-free outside eating, socialization, and work and easily opens to the pool deck via sliders.
Reef Protection
USVI now mandates use of reef-sparing sunscreens. This means avoiding products with the three “O’s”—oxybenzone, octinoxate, and octocrylene. Not only do these chemicals and others stress and damage ocean ecosystems including coral, they may affect human health. Zinc oxide-based, plant/mineral derived, biodegradable, natural products are now available that fulfill the criteria for “reef-safe” and which you can bring to St. John or purchase on island.
In Conclusion…
We feel On a Clear Day… provides for both a healthful and relaxing vacation for friends and family and for youngsters, oldsters, and everyone in between. Nature and serenity abound. Yet, if needed, technology is not far away. We hope you consider partaking in the St. John Experience.
