What’s a Rich Text element?
The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
Static and dynamic content editing
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
How to customize formatting for each rich text
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
Utterly spectacular, Villa Delfina is one of exclusive Peter Bay's most fabulously-equipped luxury villas! Sequestered behind Peter Bay's electronic gate, Delfina is distinguished by five alluring bedroom/bath suites, a gourmet kitchen, an entire level devoted to family entertainment, with the entire residence fully screened and cooled by central air-conditioning..
Stone pillars invite you into the large brick entry courtyard and parking area of this exceptional residence. A few coralstone steps open to the pool, which overlooks one of St. John's most awe-inspiring views of Peter Bay, the green National Park lands, and of the British Virgin Islands and blue ocean in the distance. Large glass slider doors and screens lead into Delfina's sitting and dining areas on the main level; these are pocket doors, which will disappear into the walls for true Caribbean indoor-outdoor living kissed by cooling island tradewinds. A circular patio is just off the indoor sitting area, set with deeply cushioned wicker chairs and ottomans for cocktails with a view. On the opposite side of the pool is a shaded wet bar with icemaker, mini-fridge, overhead fan and chaise lounges for sunning, a powder room and a small lawn area with palm trees and a hammock. The hot tub is set into the hillside and secluded by palms, but still overlooks those lovely sea views.
Inside, the gourmet kitchen with granite counters adjoins the dining area (which can seat up to 14 persons), and screened french doors lead to the barbecue area equipped with a stainless gas grill and a hand painted Italian stone dining table with umbrella. An alcove off the kitchen offers a desk with a PC computer, a DSL line for your laptop, telephone and a fax/printer/copier, plus a pantry and laundry room. Down a few stairs is another convenient powder room. Up a few stairs a hallway displaying photos of St. John accesses two bedroom/bath suites: the Trunk Bay Suite, done in refreshing blue and white, and the Leinster Bay Suite, featuring a citron and black theme. Each suite has its own private covered balcony overlooking scenic Peter Bay set with table and chairs for two, a TV and DVD player, a DSL connection, bathrobes, baths with tiled alfresco showers, mini-fridge and coffeemaker, so that guests may enjoy a private cup of morning coffee while savoring the beginning of another beautiful day in Paradise. Separating the two suites is a completely-screened lanai, a quiet sitting area with a TV and DVD player which looks out to Delfina's back garden and tall trees..
Above, via another short staircase, is the palatial and very private master suite. Its balcony high above the view provides romantic seclusion, and the sitting area and mahogany four-poster king bed are showcased by a stunning rosewood wide-plank floor. The lavish master bath features an onyx countertop, two travertine stone sinks, a separate WC with toilet and bidet, and a walk-in closet. The tiled alfresco shower, big enough for two, looks out to a grove of trees. Between the villa's main level and the entertainment level are two more bedroom/bath suites connected by a common open-air sitting area which is bordered by gardens and a small lawn - the Bordeaux Suite is done in pale, cool green with a queen four-poster bed, and the pink Coral Bay Suite offers a king four-poster bed. Each of these suites has its own covered balcony, a TV and DVD player, a DSL connection, bathrobes, baths with tiled alfresco showers, and a mini-fridge and coffeemaker.
The fun continues on Delfina's lowest level: the main room has a pool table, a large circular wet bar of native bluebit stone and granite with barstools, icemaker, mini-fridge and TV, and a full bath with shower. Screened pocket doors open to a wraparound balcony. Adjoining is the media room, with comfortable seating and a 50-inch flat screen HDTV, DVD player, books, board games for all ages, and extensive collections of movies and music for your holiday pleasures. Next to the media room is another entertainment alcove offering an Xbox, an electronic dartboard, pinball machine, TV and DVD player, and a double-twin trundle bed and a queen sofabed - perfect for the older kids who can't bear to leave this electronic heaven!
Delfina was lovingly constructed over a four-year period. Its top-of-the-line details such as travertine floors, full air-conditioning, elegant furnishings, fabrics and accessories, and wonderful landscaping all make this property one of the finest. Superb attention has been given to providing excellent and plentiful amenities appealing to all ages, and to developing a spacious design providing excellent privacy for couples, while allowing room for families and friends to spend quality time together. Delfina's prominent setting within the desirable enclave of Peter Bay, and its close proximity to Peter Bay's idyllic beach below and to other nearby National Park beaches elevates this luxury residence to five stars...absolutely fantastic!
A notarized liability waiver is required for children 7 years and under PRIOR to arrival.
Please Note: As of November 2014, construction of a new villa has started in lower Peter Bay. The construction site is not visible from Delfina. Some noise from the heavy equipment can be heard, please contact our office for more up-to-date information.

St. John is known for its beaches and a large collection of luxury villas dotting verdant mountainsides. From St. Thomas, you can take the ferry to this smaller and laid-back sister U.S. Virgin Island of St. John... an island 20-40 minutes away in time but light years away in ambience. This popular Caribbean island has only two major hotels, but offers hundreds of St. John luxury villas and vacation properties, from basic rental cottages and condominiums, to super-luxurious villa estates. BeautifulPlaces has a wonderful portfolio of luxury St. John villas - be sure to book yours early, as this is one of the most sought-after vacation destinations in the Caribbean. Spend some time poking around the many interesting and artsy shops that line the streets of Cruz Bay, St. John's main hub. Don't miss shopping in Wharfside Village and Mongoose Junction, St. John's beautiful island-style malls, plus many other varied shops and galleries. Cruz Bay can be lively at night too, offering some excellent restaurants and watering holes from casual to very upscale, and live music and dancing.
Take a drive via scenic roads out to Coral Bay, a small village where you'll enjoy funky bars, a few quaint shops and horseback riding. You can continue eastward to St. John's pristine east end for its spectacular views and crystal-clear waters: Coral Bay, Hansen Bay and Privateer Bay beyond play host to incredible sunrises and unspoiled nature. And of course, on St. John, watersports abound: SCUBA diving, snorkeling, sailing, power boating, beach lounging and swimming. 5,000 acres of St. John are designated as Virgin Islands National Park (courtesy of the late philanthropist Laurence Rockefeller).
National Park lands occupy a full three-fifths of this 9-by-5-mile Caribbean island, keeping it relatively tranquil and pristine. With over 20 hiking trails, miles of fabulous beaches, and with easy access to the British Virgin Islands via ferry, St. John is the ideal place for vacationers seeking the fable and aura of seafaring explorers, pirates and undersea life. Explore the stunning National Park beaches of Hawksnest Bay, Trunk Bay, Cinnamon Bay and Maho Bay and their sugar-white sands and clear, shimmering blue waters before retiring to your villa for the night.
The Virgin Islands National Park's Rangers offer hikes, seashore walks, historic, cultural and snorkeling tours, bird watching and informal evening lectures to visitors. Leaving the town area means ascending high into St. John's hills; Bordeaux Mountain offers a cool bird's-eye view of the British Virgins Islands, plus a portion of the famous Reef Bay Trail, to the Reef Bay Estate Great House. There are other historical monuments to explore, including the Windberg Estate, the Frederikdal ruins, and the restored Annaberg Plantation (a National Park site). For a very small island, St. John offers lots of action-packed, fun days and nights for the young at heart. But should you want to sit quietly by your villa's private pool and simply relax with your loved ones, this is also the perfect place to be. St. John (the island) and St. John's vacation villas truly have it all.
BRING PROOF of YOUR CITIZENSHIP Everyone departing St. John, even Americans, are now required by U.S. Immigration to show either a passport or a certified copy of a birth certificate accompanied by a photo ID - please don't forget these for the whole family!
Please note that The Virgin Islands Smoke-Free Act has been passed by the U.S. Virgin Islands Legislature, which bans smoking less than 20 feet from many spaces, including enclosed public places, enclosed places of employment, outdoor service or waiting lines and outdoor bus stations and public transportation platforms. Smoking also is prohibited within 20 feet of any of those locations. Keep this in mind as you enjoy your stay in the U.S. Virgin Islands!
Many adjectives have been used to describe St. John: "bucolic", "sleepy", "low-key"... this lush U.S. Virgin Island is two-thirds National Park, adding to its tropical allure. St. John villa guests have access to many modern conveniences, such as internet connections, island wedding planners, and transportation assistance.
We highly recommend that you pre-stock (provision) your villa so that you can get down to the serious business of relaxing following what's generally a long travel day, especially if you have children on hand or you have special dietary needs. This service will be invaluable, freeing you up to be embraced by your luxury villa's fine appointments and verdant surroundings.
Hire a professional chef for your St. John villa stay; you'll love the convenience! Our chefs are specially selected for their reputations, service and varied menus. Consider hosting a meal for a special occasion, or just to pamper your sweetheart or loved ones. Throw off the cares of day-to-day living and really kick back in style.
Experience an invigorating massage or other spa services on St. John! Escape to calming body wraps, sports massage, or aromatherapy to help soothe mind, body and soul. Please contact us for more information on this special service. Advance reservations highly recommended.
Sweet St. John is just one of the tropical island jewels at your disposal for seagoing fun. Below the surface is a teeming metropolis of ocean life. Enchanting sea fans and stunning coral provide a backdrop to all manner of fishes and shellfish going about their daily lives between here and British Virgin Islands such as Virgin Gorda, Norman Island and Jost Van Dyke. Dolphins may eye you with amusement, a sea turtle may paddle by on the way to lunch... under such intense observation, you just may wonder if you're the exhibit!
We know that your St. John villa is why you came, but why stay in when you can get out and discover the islands? For good, old-fashioned fun, there's no place like St. John! The island vibe reigns with plenty to do and see that's exotic and new. On the other hand, you can also take a day trip to sister island St. Thomas or visit the British Virgin Islands for a spree that will stimulate your senses. Bring your camera, your sunscreen, and your smile
