About this condo rental
Situated in Cruz Bay, this attractive condo for $560 per night is a fantastic choice for your next trip. Imagine yourself in this luxury Waterfront, newly renovated 1 BR/ 1 BA retreat that offers spectacular views of the turquoise Caribbean sea, the charming harbor and enchanting Cruz Bay town – all at an affordable price.

Your St. John escape will have you high up in the upper building of Grande Bay Resort, the ideal location on St. John for convenience. An enjoyable 5 minute stroll gets you into town so renting a vehicle will not be necessary. A Reserved Parking spot in the covered garage is available for those who do rent a jeep. Cruz Bay offers excellent shopping, fine restaurants, evening entertainment and affordable transportation to the famous St. John National Park beaches. One of the benefits of your stay in this rental is the option to take a 20 minute walk to two of St. John’s most pristine and private beaches, Salomon and Honeymoon beaches. Inside your unit you will have beautiful views from all of the living areas and kitchen. No obstructed views here. This is a highly desirable End Unit with the most sweeping views in the entire resort. You will be staying in a Full Size 1 bedroom, not a smaller “lock out” unit that is part of a two bedroom offered by others. The bedroom features a King Size bed with a separate private patio, flat screen TV, and a safe to store your valuables. Enjoy all new furnishings throughout. The living room has a queen size sleeper sofa, bar area and entertainment center. Our fully equipped kitchen with quartz counter tops and stainless steel appliances has all you need to fix everything from a gourmet meal to blending refreshing frozen island drinks. A Keurig coffee machine is provided for your convenience. When it is time to venture out onto the beautiful island, no need to fret about beach supplies, your new home-away-from-home comes fully stocked with beach towels, chairs and coolers. In the evening you can enjoy the flat screen smart TV , surf the net with our free wi-fi (also, free long distance and domestic telephone calls), listen to your favorite music or our CD's on the stereo with CD player, or just sit on the balcony and enjoy the view. Enjoy the spectacular island photography on the walls. You will want to spend lots of time relaxing on the outside terrace which is mostly covered, but also has an uncovered area to work on that tan. From the terrace you will never tire of the unobstructed views ranging from the deserted off shore islands nestled in the Windward Passage to the sailboats skimming through Pillsbury Sound to the dramatic Sunsets resting upon St. Thomas. You will not soon forget this romantic spot for sharing evening sunset cocktails and the twinkling lights. Because of its covered privacy, we often fall asleep here on the lounge chairs under the stars with the cool breezes and the sound of the nearby surf. Kick back and relax at your island get-a-way. You’ll come for the views and the closeness to town; you’ll want to stay for a lifetime!! Other amenities: Pool, Hot Tub, Sun Deck and Gym (including PILATES machine).Enjoy the million dollar views!! To reduce the wear and tear of our second home and maintain its overall quality, we only rent to a maximum of two adults.

Unbelievable place. Some say the pictures and video don't do it justice. It does!!!! The views, the location, the cleanliness, the amenities....did I mention the views? Leslie and Peter were very responsive to our needs. Some of the restaurants were closed due to the season but we knew that going in.....plenty of the great ones were still open. St. John beaches are the real reason to go. Had a blast visiting Jost/Van Dyke. Another highlight was renting a dinghy right in front of the building and beaching it on Honeymoon Beach for the day. Thank you Leslie and Peter for allowing us to use your condo to celebrate our 40th anniversary!!

There is so much good that can be said about this place. To start, Leslie and Peter were great since I first booked the place. Leslie called me once I arrived in St John to help figure out the check in process. The place was clean and in such a perfect location. It is within walking distance of all the restaurants/bars that are in downtown Cruz Bay. This was so convenient for us to be able to walk downtown whenever we wanted too. The pictures do not do justice for how amazing the views are from the balcony. We found ourselves waking up early to catch sunrise and then watching the sunset before heading out for the night. After being out in Cruz Bay, we would spend the remainder of the night on the balcony just taking in the views.
The condo had everything we needed to be able to cook and it was great to have laundry in the unit. This allowed us to do some laundry throughout the week. There were beach chairs, coolers and towels that we used for the beach daily. Lastly, we rented a Jeep so it was nice to have a parking spot at the condo. For the most part, we would explore during the day then park the Jeep at night and head downtown.
I would highly recommend this place and if we are able to get back to St John, I would not want to stay anywhere else!

The place was clean, location perfect & view was spectacular. Leslie & Peter couldn’t have been more helpful & all of their suggestions on dining & sightseeing were spot on. I don’t go to many places saying I’ll definitely be back but we will definitely be back here! You won’t be disappointed! I miss it already!

Very nice condo. It has been recently updated. Very comfortable and well equipped. Next to town so an easy walk to bars and restaurants. There is also a grocery store within walking distance.
Check in was easy. The person that met us at the ferry dock was very nice.
We had one issue with the plumbing in the kitchen but the resort maintenance quickly resolved it.
I would recommend trip,isurance. The cancellation policy is no refunds within 60 days of arrival.

Such an amazing stay. Jost was amazing and helpful. Location was perfect and the view was awesome. Having a parking spot for our jeep rental worked out very well. We will definitely be back soon.

I cannot say enough about this property and the owners. If you’re looking for convenience this is the place. Location is excellent as the view right over Cruz Bay is gorgeous, and literally right outside you are walking distance to the taxis which take you to the many beaches ( personally we didn’t need a rental car). Also walking distance to many restaurants. The month of September many restaurants close down but you still have a variety. However, the grocery store is a 5 minute walk away, and thank goodness for that. Tropical Storm Fiona (which developed into a hurricane after it passed over St, John) forced everything to shut down for 2 days, so stocking up on food was easy. The condo unit was well appropriated with everything you need to cook. And I must note that with Fiona we were worried we would lose power..,they have a generator so all was good!
While a vacation unit’s comforts, cleanliness, and location are all important, equally important are the owners. Leslie’s concern for us during Fiona was quite impressive and she actually called us from Europe (we never heard from the local management company regarding Fiona). And it was apparent that her concern was not about her property, but rather that we would still enjoy our vacation. We did Leslie!
We look forward to another trip to St John and would stay here again without question!

Property was AMAZING! What you see in the pictures is what you get. Gorgeous recently renovated 3rd floor end unit. Sunsets were beautiful. You could also see the sun rise over the mountain behind us. Walking distance to Cruz Bay, local restaurants and shops. We rented a jeep and a parking space was provided. Definitely a plus as parking is limited and very expensive. Beach chairs, towels, coolers and even a couple noodles were provided. We only needed to rent snorkel gear and we were all set. The unit had everything we needed. It also had both a Keurig and a regular coffee machine. I would definitely recommend this place!

My husband and I stayed in this condo for a week in early April. The pictures don’t do it justice. The view from the deck was fantastic. The proximity to all the restaurants and bars in Cruz Bay was perfect for us. We did rent a car because we wanted to travel throughout the island and there is covered parking underneath the building, which is very convenient. The bed was comfortable and the shower was outstanding! The whole place has recently been remodeled. We would definitely stay there again.
