WIMCO VILLAS CONTINUES TO EXPAND U.S.V.I PORTFOLIO
WITH ADDITION OF EXCEPTIONAL NEW ESTATE ON ST. JOHN

NEWPORT, RI, July 2010 - Wimco, one of the world’s premiere villa rental companies, continues to expand its Caribbean portfolio of exceptional homes and estates with the addition of the magnificent Villa MAS IVA (Villa Vista) on St. John, U.S.V.I.

Perched on a lush, green hillside overlooking Cruz Bay, this two-bedroom, Italianate-style palazzo is the ideal locale for couples a deux or honeymooners seeking pure bliss and seclusion.

Boasting architectural and design elements that belie its size, the two story Villa MAS IVA provides guests with interior and exterior spaces nothing short of five-star. Extraordinary touches include vaulted cypress ceilings, hand carved mahogany cabinetry, travertine floors, custom lighting, designer furnishings and artistic stained glass windows.

This luxe “private hotel” infuses Mediterranean with Caribbean and features a Great Room with plush sofas and wet bar, chef’s kitchen with professional equipment, media room, two guest suites, formal dining room, open-ar BBQ room and fully-equipped private office. Alfresco accouterments include expansive balconies and sundecks overlooking the sea, an outdoor shower pavilion, heated pool and Jacuzzi.

Villa MAS IVA is just a five minute drive to Cruz Bay where fabulous shops, an array of restaurants and ferries to neighboring islands are situated. The Villa is also just minutes from some of St. John’s most spectacular beaches.

Rates for MAS IVA for two-bedroom use are from $7,800 to $13,000 weekly. Guests may enjoy a lower one-bedroom rate during select seasons.
