Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 1999
I'm from New York City, have lived in St. John since 1997 working for Westin, Ritz-Carlton and Marriott. I love the laid back lifestyle so decided I would go into the hospitality business for myself. This is the only property I own (or have ever owned) and have been renovating it since the day I bought it (the renovations never stop, always more to do!) I get to spend loads of time with my 6 year old son, native Virgin islander; we love hiking, hitting the beach, boating and travel! I also tend bar one night a week at High Tide, come by to see me!
Why the Owner Chose Rendezvous Bay
After life in the Big City and the suburbs of New York, life in my neighborhood could not be any easier. For a while I rented a home closer to Cruz Bay (too close) and for a year rented a place in Fish Bay (too remote). Rendezvous is perfect: 5 minutes to Cruz Bay bars, restaurants, groceries, shopping, ferries to St. Thomas. 15 minute drive to all of my favorite beaches on the North Shore, National Park and hiking trails. Easy to catch a boat to British Virgin Islands from Cruz Bay. Quiet, safe neighborhood where I know most of my neighbors and rarely bother to lock my door or take the keys out of my car. I have a big yard I'm always gardening with lots of sun and awesome sunsets, accross the street down Boatman road are awesome views east of Rendezvous Bay and the entire South Shore of St. John, with great sun and moonrises.
The Unique Benefits of this Villa
The property has 3 totally seperate units which are all completely private from one another so I have the incredible luck to get to live here in one of them. It is situated at the top of a hill so the view and the breeze is awesome!
The units are so private from one another that I rarely run into my guests unless they come by and knock on my door to get advice about where to go and what to do on their vacations. Over time I've made some great friends who come back to visit again year after year. It makes my job extremely easy caring for the property and my guests since I am on site, anything that does go wrong can be remedied right away. Then there is great sunsets from the pool, grilling out on the deck with friends, the garden filled with tropical plants and fruit trees, the easy access to town and beaches and other islands, A/C which you rarely need because of the great breezes, convenience of internet and Dish network TV...

A Summer Stay in the Cottage
Guest: Last Minute
(St. Louis, MO)
Date of Stay: 07/05/10
Review Submitted: 07/12/10
My wife and I found the place attractive. The area it is located in is a short distance from the ferry. It is generally quite. The bed is firm (if you have a preference) and it was great to cook out on the gas grill. We were worried about the heat but the small A/C unit was enough to keep us cool. Mosquiteos are a problem on the island so bug spray is recommeneded. The pool is nice to jump into during the afternoon if the beach is too hot. The unit is out of the way and offers some privacy. James and Sania provided everything we need for the stay and are a pleasure to know. James furnishes the cottage so that all you need is to drop your bags in the bedroom and start relaxing. St. John restaurents weren't the best dining experience we had but that is OK as we cooked at the cotttage. A car is a must. It is better if you rent a vehicle for the stay on the island. Ferry service is your only choice for reaching the island or by hired boat. There are plenty of beachs to choose from on the island. You don't need to plan to go back to St. Thomas or St. Croix with the hiking and watersporting choices at St. John.
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, sightseeing, families with young children.
Love this little cottage!!!

I have stayed in all units of this house, and love the neighborhood and the landlords!!! You can cook to your hearts content or go downtown for a nice meal, and the view from the pool is wonderful. All amenities are included, and I think it is a bargain for St. John market.
Recommended for:Romantic getaway.
Nice rendezvous for two

If you're looking for a 5 star Westin with hot and cold running maids and room service this is not for you. If you are looking for nice accomodations with a gracious host this fits the bill. Any negatives are far outweighed by the pluses. Built into a hillside this unit can be a bit on the dark side and the bedroom is not much bigger than the bed. The kitchen is plenty large enough and fully equipped. A wide double door and two windows open fully into a large, private, roofed and screened deck that serves as outdoor dining and comfortable sitting area. The deck has a great view and usually had a nice breeze. A set of stairs outside your door brings you up to a great built-in pool with over sized deck, plenty of seating, shaded areas and again the great view. The pool is shared with another unit and the host, but is large enough to accomodate everyone. The whole time we were there no one else used the pool area. We are laid back travelers as for as we were concerned this was excellent, especially considering the price. We rated it good since there as always room for improvement. If you have great difficulty with stairs this is not for you. We would definitely go back.
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, sightseeing, adventure seekers, age 55+.
