Welcome to Shibui Zen (渋い): A mid-century, Japanese pagoda residence in St. Thomas.

Shibui was originally built in the 1960s as an award-winning luxury Japanese style resort: A colony of Japanese cottages, and a place for travellers to St. Thomas to enjoy a high-design experience.

Japanese sunken bathtub, fully equipped kitchen, indoor and outdoor dining areas, king sized bedroom with romantic views and kimono waffle weave bathrobes in the closet. Full-sized pullout sofa. And of course, views for days! Shibui Zen is in the most private spot in the complex—on a small cul-de-sac. Steps from a gorgeous salt-water swimming pool in the sky that feels like it’s your own, it’s that secluded!

Shibusa at Shibui overlooks the stunning Caribbean Sea. Designed for the discerning traveller who wants beautiful design as well as comfort. Sit on your own deck, watch the sun set into the Caribbean, and enjoy the cool trade winds whilst sipping on a tropical drink. In the morning, you can open up the shoji screened walls that surround you, reach out over the deck, and pick mangoes from your own lush tropical garden for breakfast. Really, it IS paradise!
