THE GROUNDS: Conveniently located in close proximity to the pool with a short stroll through the lush grounds bringing you to Water Bay Beach where you will hear the soothing sounds of the waves rolling onto the sand. Beautiful Saint John and the British Virgin Islands frame the bay as sailboats drift by.

THE AREA: Enjoy the natural beauty of Water Bay Beach while dining at Fungis or relaxing on the beach. Local fishing boats and nets rest on one end of Water Bay Beach while Fungis, the waterfront bar/restaurant serving island casual lunch and dinner is on the other side. Watch the fishermen get ready to go out in the morning or take your sandals off and soak your toes in the Caribbean Sea as you wander down the beach towards Fungis. The Agave Terrace specializing in island gourmet dinners is steps above Fungis with breathtaking views of the British Virgin Islands and St. John. Picasso’s Coffee Shop is across the street with homemade pastries and fresh coffee for breakfast and throughout the day.

Coki Beach and Coral World are a short walk away. Coki Beach is a beautiful white sandy beach with some of the island’s best snorkeling. Vendors set up during the day to rent out lounge chairs and umbrellas and serve drinks and snacks right to you on the beach. Coral World is a fun, interactive aquarium.

The town of Red Hook is about five minutes by car. Ferries leave from Red Hook for St. John and the British Islands and there are also restaurants, groceries, shopping, and other services available there.

Beach House Style Simplicty-Relax with Family-Stay on Budget

Year Purchased: 1975

Why the Owner Chose Pineapple Village

The layout of Pineapple Village with single story beach house style condos and the spacious floor plan within each unit make it an easy spot to relax, especially with a family. The flat walkways and extensive tropical landscaping make it feel more like a home than a typical condo complex.

The privacy of the beach and pool make it feel like you have your own private retreat. We really like the kitchen opening to the large patio and the screened in showers in the two master bathrooms to take advantage of the tropical climate.

The Unique Benefits at this Condominium

You will enjoy plenty of space and a good mix of modern conveniences with an environment that takes advantages of the natural tropical ambiance. The home has been updated without losing the island charm.

We especially enjoy the proximity to Coki Beach and Coral World Ocean Park. Coki has some of the island's best snorkeling and is a beautiful beach. Go for an early morning swim to have the beach to yourself and beat the heat of the day. It's a great way to start your day.

A
Coki Beach

Beautiful white sandy beach with clear water. Some of the best snorkeling on the island.

B
Coral World Ocean Park

Fun, interactive aquarium within walking distance.

C
Fungi's Beachside Restaurant & Agave Terrace

Beach bar style lunch and dinner at Fungi's on Water Bay Beach. Island Gourmet at the Agave Terrace with a great view of the British Virgin Islands and St. John.

D
Picaso's Coffee Shop

Delicious coffee, pastries, smoothies, and more right across the street from Pineapple Village. Open for breakfast and throughout the day.

E
Local Fruit and Fish Stands

Fresh fruit and fish, sometimes even lobster from local fishermen sold at outdoor stands.

    • I stayed at Palm Retreat with my family including three small children in August. We were pleasantly surprised with the spaciousness of the condo. It is really more like your own beach house than a condo. It was great for the kids to play and us to relax. There was plenty of room inside with the air conditioning or outside in the private, walled in patios for the kids to play. We really enjoyed the privacy of the grounds, especially the pool which is very close. The grounds are all flat with an easy walkway to the beach. There is a wagon provided which the kids loved and was very convenient for toting supplies back and forth from the beach and pool to the home. We looked forward to returning "home" after days out exploring St. Thomas and St. John. We cooked almost every meal either on the grill outside or in the kitchen with the window opened out to the patio. The kids loved sitting on the bar stools outside and watching me cook from the inside. It was fun and memorable. We highly recommend staying here. It is a great value for a spacious, family friendly vacation rental.

    • I stayed in Coral Studio, a studio apartment in Pineapple Village also managed by Palm Retreat. We had a great time! The apartment was a good jumping off point and very reasonably priced. Coki Beach is awesome for relaxing and we spent most of our days there in awe of the crystal clear water. Palm Retreat management was great and everything was super easy. We were checked in and out on time and the business dealings were quick and prompt. The studio is small, but the King sized bed is a welcome addition. Plus, they have direct TV so I was able to catch some of the basketball while I waited for my girl to get ready for nights on the town. Great stay, highly recommended, and a steal for the price!

    • We had a great time at Palm Retreat. I highly recommend staying here. My family and I really enjoyed the privacy of the beach and pool. Palm Retreat was very clean and the air conditioning works great. It was nice to come home to a clean and cool place after a long day at the beach. We have five people in our family and we had plenty of space for all of us. I spent a lot of time looking for an affordable place for my family to stay and we made the right decision to stay here. The owners and caretakers were friendly and easy to deal with. We will be staying here again on our next vacation to St. Thomas.

    • We just returned from a superb family vacation at Palm Retreat. We spent a week at this lovely vacation home with our young son and my parents. We had plenty of room for all of us. We felt like we had our own private getaway with the beach and pool all to ourselves. Palm Retreat has all the amenities of home making it an easy vacation for our family. We grilled on the BBQ every night and took our coffee to the beach for the morning sunrise. It is very clean and comfortable. The owners were here to meet us and were very friendly and helpful with their local knowledge. I highly recommend staying here.

    • I thoroughly enjoyed my stay - a clean and comfortable place and its proximity to the quiet beach, the large pool, and 'Fungi's' bar was a huge plus. Also close to 'downtown' and in a secure development. A great place to stay...

    • The cove beach here was great for my kids and Koki beach had many activities nearby. The location isn't far from the barge to St. John. We liked the air conditioning and the bedrooms were perfect with each having their own bathroom. The owners made us feel right at home and made our stay enjoyable, they were very knowledgable and friendly. The condo had everything we needed and then some- thanks so much!

    • I had a great experience staying here. The condo is very quiet and the grounds are relaxing. There was a short walk to the pool and beach. Plus, Fungi's for great food and drinks. The condo is open and light with good sized bedrooms and living space. The owner was very nice to deal with and I would definitely return again. Nice stay!
