"Almost beachfront " Snorkeling & Kayaks across the street. 2 Bed 2 Bath Cottage

Power outages were frequent on the island but fortunately our host always got our generator going. He was the best!

Jim was very accommodating and made sure our stay was a great one. He answered all of our questions promptly. The house was beautiful. Sunrises on the deck were amazing! This was a much better choice for us rather than staying in noisy Cruz Bay. This made a great home base for all of our adventures.

Great place to stay on the quiet side of St John. The views of sunrise are great. Well equipped kitchen and beach gear - the beach chairs are much more comfortable than what are available to rent at Trunk Bay. Easy walk to the well stocked market.Bedrooms are air conditioned and the design of the kitchen/living space means there is always a pleasant breeze to keep comfortable.Perfect for two couples.

The host was so responsive with suggestions and answers to questions. He helped us make decisions before we ever arrived in St. John. Very responsive! Loved the east side of the island.

Jim was an incredibly welcoming host and the location of the property was great. The rental property was clean and the outdoor space was nicely laid out. The only things that seemed to be missing were some essentials for cooking (salt, pepper, oil, drinking water, etc) and some items for leisure (games, cards). Otherwise the kitchen was well stocked.

We had a fabulous experience! The view is incredible, with the constant sound of waves and a refreshing ocean breeze. The balcony and outdoor space were amazing—enjoying coffee while watching the sunrise was the perfect way to start each day.The cottage was clean, comfortable, and well equipped with everything we needed. The beds were very comfortable, and each room had its own air-conditioning unit. Jim, our host, was respectful, courteous, and incredibly helpful. He had snorkel gear ready for us, and the beach chairs were a huge bonus. He shared great recommendations for places to visit, local sleep remedies, a charter company and captain, and even invited us to a Christmas service. When a small repair was needed, Jim responded quickly and resolved it promptly. He was also very responsive before our arrival.The island offers beautiful beaches, bays, and fantastic restaurants. We recommend exploring as much as possible, but don’t miss the views at The Windmill Bar—we went three times! We loved 1864 The Restaurant in Cruz Bay (twice) and Gingo’s as well.We also recommend FlyAway Charters and a visit to Eden Jewelers for some beautiful bling.Pro tip: Pack bug spray and anti-itch cream—mosquitoes and no-see-ums are common on the island no matter where you stay.We would absolutely stay here again. Thank you, Jim!

Host was great and answered all of our questions. Location has awesome views and we were even able to watch the Coral Bay Regatta from our porch. Too windy to try out snorkeling or kayaks there. Lots of close beaches with great snorkeling close by.

Wonderful! We had an absolutely wonderful stay! Jim was a fantastic host—thoughtful, responsive, and incredibly helpful from the planning phase all the way through our trip. He truly thought of everything, from beach chairs and snorkel gear to a fully stocked kitchen with every gadget you could possibly need.The house itself was comfortable and well-appointed. The beds were cozy, the fans kept everything breezy, and the bedroom A/C was a great touch. The views? Simply breathtaking.We especially loved the pool area—the loungers were perfect for an afternoon nap in the sun. But my favorite part of each day was enjoying breakfast on the balcony while watching the sunrise.Highly recommend this place for a relaxing, well-equipped, and memorable getaway!

Great week! Everything was as described, easy to access, nice views. Jim was very discreet but always present when needed. Perfect place for our family of 4, even the teenager liked it.Several options to eat nearby, north beaches are 10-15 minutes away, no need to rent a Jeep to access this house.
