Featured on HGTV’s ‘Caribbean Life’, Meritage Great House has everything you need to experience paradise.
Meritage Great House is situated on a scenic hillside of the very desirable location of Chocolate Hole, Cruz Bay.
Just a short four-minute drive from the ferry dock and downtown Cruz Bay where you can find the best restaurants and shopping on the island.
The house overlooks the Caribbean Ocean which allows you to relax poolside and listen to the surf roll in from Hart Bay Beach which is just a short five-minute car ride down from the house.
Meritage Great House has 4 large, air-conditioned bedrooms each with their own private ensuite bathroom. The 4th bedroom can be either set-up with a king size bed or 2 twin beds, The house has three levels, with bedrooms on each level, allowing for privacy.
The living area and kitchen are on the top deck, fully air conditioned. You can also enjoy the gentle breeze from the Caribbean Ocean. The fully equipped kitchen with Italian granite countertops is a great place to create a feast. Or you may simply want to grill out and enjoy your BBQ by the pool.
Relax on the sundeck around the private pool and wrap around covered decks on two levels, many different gathering places for your group, and secluded places for privacy. Lay in the hammock sipping your favorite cocktail while you watch a dramatic Caribbean sunset.
From the decks, you can see in the distance the islands of St. Croix and St. Thomas which make the perfect spot for morning coffee and pictures with friends & family.

We look forward to hearing from you.
Linda & Randall

If you need additional space, we also rent out Meritage Cottage separately. listing#35289

    Great place to stay. Being able to see the waves roll into the bay and catch the sunset daily from the balcony was awesome!

    We loved being in a house that had a good sized living area for everyone and yet separate spaces as well as all the bedrooms were separate and had separate bathrooms attached. Great for couples traveling together and families. Our kids loved the pool and all the iguanas in the trees. Only negative was it would have been nice to have a half bath off the main living area so you didn’t have to go all the way downstairs to a bedroom to use the bathroom.

    Beautiful home with 4 spacious bedrooms and bathrooms and a lovely little pool overlooking hart bay! Our favorite was the screened in porch upstairs

    There are 3 great outdoor, including screened porch, for our group of 8. Loved the ability to relax together, or if necessary find a spot for quiet time. The indoor is also spacious enough for our group, but when in St. Johns who wants to be indoors!Property manager and owners were very helpful and available.

    The Meritage Great House was excellent. The view was spectacular. The common areas were fantastic for family time. The bedrooms were each equipped with their own bathroom and adjustable air-conditioning unit. The cottage was well equipped with chairs for the beach and snorkeling equipment. The soak pool was wonderful. Abigail was extremely helpful during the check-in and checkout process and assisting us in arrangements getting to St. John. We would definitely stay there again.

    We loved our stay at Meritage- the house was clean, rooms comfortable, and the house was so close to Cruz Bay(not walking distance, but close with jeeps!). It was easy to communicate, and ask questions when needed. The only Downside we found was that there is a hot tub advertised, but not hot tub at the house. The dryers did not work well, we had to hang most things up after washing them. Overall we loved out stay!!

    We stayed at Meritage for a week in July. Aside from the amazing views it offers, it’s convenient to the Starfish Marketplace for shopping, 10 minutes to Cruz Bay, and close enough to the beaches, especially Hawk’s Nest. The host provides plenty of linens, soaps and shampoos, laundry facilities and detergent, and beach equipment. Large home with plenty of space to spread out and enjoy time together or apart. We will be back.

    Our 25/75 celebration with family on St. John was awesome! Staying at Meritage helped make our time together relaxing. The views are spectacular from the 3 decks. Abby is wonderful and makes sure your stay is comfortable.
