Discover A Slice of Paradise

A Little Piece of Heaven on Earth.

Somewhere between the endless turquoise sea and the emerald islands, you’ll discover a little piece of heaven on earth.

Imagine waking to spectacular sunrises, spending your days exploring some of the world’s most beautiful beaches, swimming in crystal-clear Caribbean waters, and hopping from one breathtaking island to the next.

Discover the magic of St. Thomas, venture over to the breathtaking island of St. John, and set your sights on an unforgettable day exploring the British Virgin Islands. From one extraordinary island to the next, the Caribbean is yours to discover.

From unforgettable days on the water and extraordinary island adventures to delicious Caribbean dining experiences, there’s something magical waiting around every corner. Savor incredible cuisine overlooking the sparkling sea, enjoy romantic dinners beneath the stars, or step back in time at historic island restaurants, where centuries-old stone walls and timeless Caribbean charm create an atmosphere as memorable as the food itself. Every experience is another reason to fall hopelessly in love with these beautiful islands.

And when the day’s adventures come to an end, return to A Slice of Paradise. Pour your favorite drink, settle onto your private balcony, and watch as the moonlight shimmers across the sea.

Some places capture your heart so completely, a part of you never truly leaves. Long after the journey ends, their beauty lingers in your soul, calling you back to the place where you felt a little closer to heaven.

The islands are calling. Your paradise is waiting.

When the Islands Fall Quiet

A Little Moonlight. A Lot of Magic.

There’s something magical about the Caribbean after dark, and depending on the moon, the view can be completely different from one night to the next. When the moon is full, it’s absolutely breathtaking. Moonlight spills across the sea, creating a shimmering silver pathway over the water. The islands become silhouettes against the night sky, and I could sit on our balcony for hours just taking it all in.

But I love the nights without much moonlight, too. When the sea is dark and the stars are shining overhead, my imagination starts wandering. I think about the pirates who once sailed these waters, the explorers navigating between islands, and what it must have been like centuries ago, looking out into that same darkness and finding their way by the stars.

There’s something incredible about sitting here, knowing these waters have witnessed countless adventures. Whether it’s a brilliant full moon or a peaceful, star-filled night, the view has its own kind of magic.

Beach Days in St. Thomas & St. John.

There’s nothing quite like a beach day in St. Thomas or St. John. Pack a cooler, grab your beach chairs, and head out to discover a new stretch of soft sand and that unbelievably blue Caribbean water.

Swim until you’re ready for a break, snorkel among colorful fish, take a long walk along the shore, or just settle in with a good book and let the hours slip by. Some days call for an adventure; others are made for doing absolutely nothing at all.

One of my favorite things is that every beach has its own personality. You can spend your whole trip finding new favorites—and still leave with more on your list for next time.

We’ve made beach days a little easier with chairs, towels, beach bags, and coolers ready for your adventures. All you need to decide is which beautiful beach to visit first!

Our Story

We're from Minnesota, where I call winter the tundra! We've traveled to so many beautiful places, and I'm usually not one to visit the same destination twice. There's just too much of the world I want to see!

But then we discovered St. Thomas in 2018.

I'll never forget stepping off the back of that plane, feeling the warm Caribbean air, and immediately knowing we'd found somewhere special. The turquoise water, winding roads, breathtaking views, beautiful beaches, wonderful people, and warm trade winds completely captured my heart.

I actually cried when we had to leave! As soon as we got home, I booked our next trip. So much for never visiting the same place twice!

The following year, we started looking at properties. The first one we loved sold before we could make an offer, which turned out to be a blessing in disguise.

The following June, we found our perfect slice of paradise. We were so taken by the pictures and those incredible views that we made an offer without even seeing it in person! We flew down days later, and it was more beautiful than we'd imagined.

I still love every little thing about being there. Waking up to spectacular sunrises, enjoying coffee on the balcony, feeling the trade winds, exploring beaches, discovering restaurants and coffee shops, and watching moonlight shimmer across the sea. And yes, even the iguanas!

After all these years, I'm still never ready to leave. St. Thomas has become a part of my soul.

If we could live there full-time, we would! Until then, sharing our little piece of paradise with others brings me so much happiness. I love helping guests discover our favorite places and experience the island we love.

I hope you'll understand why the girl who rarely visited the same place twice keeps returning to St. Thomas.

Some places are wonderful to visit. Others become a part of who you are.

Why We Fell in Love With This Little Piece of Paradise

From the moment we discovered this property, we were completely captivated by the breathtaking views. The endless turquoise waters, lush green islands, and incredible sense of peace and privacy made us fall in love. We knew we had found somewhere truly special.

One of our favorite things about this location is that you can step outside and enjoy a beautiful walk through the neighborhood, taking in spectacular ocean views and admiring the gorgeous island homes along the way. With the winding roads and hills, it's also a wonderful way to get a great workout while surrounded by some of the most incredible scenery imaginable!

And while our little slice of paradise feels wonderfully peaceful and tucked away, we're centrally located and just minutes from so many of the things that make St. Thomas extraordinary.

World-renowned Magens Bay, with its gorgeous white sand and turquoise waters, is only about eight minutes away. Within five minutes, you can enjoy a wonderful cup of coffee at Northside Grind or indulge in an unforgettable fine-dining experience at Old Stone Farmhouse, a beautifully historic restaurant set on a former sugar plantation.

It's that rare combination of breathtaking beauty, peaceful privacy, and an incredible location that made us fall in love with this property—and we can't wait for you to experience it for yourself.

What Makes Our Place Unique

We have stayed at so many vacation rentals over the years, and we've brought that experience into making our own place feel like home. You'll find incredibly soft, cozy bed linens, plush pillows, comfortable furnishings, a kitchen stocked for cooking, plenty of beach towels, and a detailed guidebook to help you plan your adventures.

One of the things we love most about sharing A Slice of Paradise is helping our guests experience the very best of St. Thomas. Over the years, we've spent countless hours exploring the island, discovering beautiful places, trying incredible restaurants, visiting coffee shops, and seeking out experiences that make St. Thomas so unforgettable.

I love sharing those discoveries with our guests! Rather than simply handing you a list of popular attractions, I personally put together recommendations for restaurants, coffee shops, and island experiences based on places we've explored and enjoyed ourselves. I want you to experience everything that makes this island so extraordinary.

And perhaps most importantly, we're always just a message away. Whether you're planning your adventures before arrival, searching for the perfect place to dine, or have a question during your stay, I'm happy to help at any hour of the day. No question is ever too small, and I genuinely love helping our guests make the most of every moment in paradise.

Our greatest joy is knowing that our guests leave with beautiful memories, a love for these islands, and the same desire to return that brought us back to St. Thomas again and again.
