Bliss Properties VI – Creating Exceptional Experiences While Supporting a Healthier Community
This Men's Health Awareness Month, Cancer Support VI is proud to recognize Bliss Properties VI as one of our valued Community Match Partners. Their support is helping us raise awareness about the importance of men's health while ensuring that individuals and families facing cancer in the Virgin Islands have access to critical resources, education, and financial assistance.
Bliss Properties VI is a boutique vacation rental management company specializing in luxury villas and oceanfront condo getaways on St. Thomas. Founded by an engineer and a sales and client services professional, the company has built its reputation on providing exceptional care for both property owners and guests.
What makes Bliss Properties unique is their personal understanding of the vacation rental experience. As owners of a rental property themselves, they know firsthand the trust required when a valuable investment is managed from thousands of miles away. Their focus on communication, transparency, and personalized service has become the foundation of their business.
As they describe it, "Taking care of people, both owners and guests, is the whole heartbeat of what we do."
That same commitment to caring for people extends beyond their business and into the community they proudly call home.
For the team at Bliss Properties, St. Thomas is more than a destination, it is where they have built their lives, their business, and their sense of belonging.
"The water, the people, the rhythm of island living, it gets into your soul and never lets go."
Their connection to the Virgin Islands made supporting Cancer Support VI during Men's Health Awareness Month an easy decision.
"Men are famous for putting off the doctor, brushing off symptoms, and skipping screenings that could catch something early. Men's Health Month is about flipping that script."
Bliss Properties recognizes that early detection and preventative care save lives, and they are passionate about encouraging those conversations throughout our community. By partnering with Cancer Support VI, they are helping ensure that Virgin Islanders have access to support, resources, and encouragement when they need it most.
For owner Tressa, this mission is also deeply personal.
Her mother passed away from colon cancer, a loss that continues to shape her commitment to raising awareness about the importance of screening and early detection.
"I carry the knowledge that adequate screening may have saved her life, and that truth shapes everything about why this cause matters so much to me. If sharing her story nudges even one person to schedule the screening they've been putting off, then her memory keeps doing good in this world."
Stories like hers serve as powerful reminders that behind every awareness campaign are real families whose lives have been forever changed by cancer.
While many know Bliss Properties for their beautiful vacation rentals, the company offers far more than accommodations. Through personalized concierge services, they help guests experience the very best of the Virgin Islands, from private boat charters and secluded beaches to in-villa spa treatments, personal chefs, and customized arrival experiences.
And for visitors who fall in love with island life, Tressa is also a licensed Realtor with Coldwell Banker St. Thomas Realty, helping clients turn their dream of owning a piece of paradise into reality.
We are grateful to Bliss Properties VI for standing alongside Cancer Support VI as a Community Match Partner and for using their voice to encourage lifesaving conversations about men's health and cancer prevention.
Together, we can continue to raise awareness, promote early detection, and provide support to individuals and families throughout the Virgin Islands.
