Seashore Allure #2 - Crumena

About Seashore Allure #2 - Crumena, St. John

From its dramatic waterfront location on Turner Bay, Seashore Allure enjoys breathtaking ocean views dotted with the green islands of Little and Great St. James in the blue distance. Gentle waves whisper on the pebble beach, rippling in from the crystal-clear bay.

Situated side-by-side on Seashore Allure's main level are four stylish one-bedroom units, all with central air-conditioning and fabulous king bedroom/bath suites. This one-bedroom condo, Crumena, has Brazilian hardwood flooring and maple cabinetry setting the stage for Crumena's elegant and modern furnishings, artistic lighting and its excellent floorplan. The fully-equipped sleek kitchen features a glass cooktop, stainless steel appliances, and has just about everything you might need to whip up a meal or snack.

The king bedroom and ensuite bath invite romance and relaxation in luxe style. The sink-into four-poster king bed is canopied. The adjoining bath is beautifully laid out in travertine tile with a granite countertop. The bath offers a magnifying mirror, a bidet, and an ample shower with a rain shower inset into the ceiling and bodyspray shower on the side.

Step outside to Crumena's private verandah set with comfortable seating; it borders the entire front of your unit and overlooks the pool area and Turner Bay. The verandah's clear tempered glass half-walls allow you uninterrupted vistas from your shady private spot, just perfect for reading, admiring the ocean view, or for evening cocktails. Should your friends wish to have their own accommodations, they can rent the unit right next door, and with your advance request, you'll get a key to the door connecting both private verandahs so you can visit each other freely.

Steps from your door is Seashore Allure's convivial pool and entertainment area, where all guests are welcome to hang out. The marine-blue pool, set into a coralstone terrace, gets sun all day long. Nearby is a thatched pavilion which offers a shaded area with a gas grill and a 46-inch satellite TV, and there are tables for alfresco dining. There's also a convenient powder room. At the very top of Seashore Allure is a spiral staircase which leads up to a partially-roofed patio and the complex's large hot tub and lounge area. A stone archway frames the picture-perfect ocean view seen from this level. On the premises is also the condo office, where you can do your laundry, get information and assistance, and use the printer to print out your boarding passes.

These are beautifully-executed residences. With travertine tile, the creative use of exotic warm woods, St. John-style classic stone and shellwork accent walls, tasteful decor and the latest lighting, appliances and electronics, Seashore Allure is exceedingly polished and sophisticated, and sure to please its fortunate guests. A flat walking path from Seashore Allure takes you through a local neighborhood and a nature preserve into Cruz Bay in about 10 minutes, for shopping, dining, bars and nightlife (or drive into Cruz Bay in 2 minutes). And it's only a short drive to St. John's spectacular National Park beaches. Seashore Allure is an excellent choice for your Virgin Islands vacation and for honeymooners, young and old! Very highly recommended.
