RJ,
You may already know this....it is located in Upper Carolina...Coral Bay. We stayed in a villa located there last month and it is a beautiful area. :)

I googled Majestic Mile, and found the VRBO.site for the place we are going to stay at. So now I know that we are staying in the Majestic Mile :lol:

It's called "Stairways to the stars".

RJ and Maggy-- Majestic Mile is about the last marked road before you get to the intersection in Coral Bay. You'll bare left an just keep heading up and to the left. I have a soft spot for that area as it was the first place we stayed on STJ. Actually we did it 2 years in a row. If you're all the way to the end of Majestic Mile you are over 700 feet above Coral Bay Harbor. This is a shot I took while on a walk up there. Also, it's very quiet, and the winds never seem to stop. Never needed a/c, in May or June!

Thanks everyone. Wow, JT, that's a gorgeous picture.
And, I know the road you are talking about.

From that villa, could you see any of the North Shore views, too?

Actually, we had a partial view of the BVI's from In the Stars.That place is right at the apex of the hill, with an unobtructed view of the harbor one way and the BVI's on the other. The vegetation was pretty overgrown on that side of the villa. It was too bad, though there was no pool there then, there was a hot tub on the upper deck facing that way. I was amazed later to realize how close we were to Leinster/Waterlemon, as the crow flys. If there was a trail to Leinster, from there, I never found it.
