1-2 BR | St John - The Most Famous Petite St John Luxury Villa Rental
Mooncottage. Nestled into a verdant Caribbean hillside, with astonishing 180-degree panoramic sea views, you simply won't fully appreciate the beauty of Mooncottage until you experience it in-person. Built from native hardwoods and stone, and surrounded by lush tropical gardens...it is serene in every way. Located on the quiet side of St. John in peaceful Coral Bay. Perfect for couples, close friends, or a small family...Mooncottage is renowned for Anniversaries or Honeymoons. Base rate of $714/night + cleaning + tax.
See our astounding 3D Virtual Tour. Since 2004, we have received hundreds of 5-star reviews across various booking platforms. With scores of guest comments like “Heaven on Earth” and a “Romantic Villa Beyond Words,” it is one of the best romantic couples getaways imaginable.
5 Great Reasons to Stay at Mooncottage
1. Ridiculously Romantic. Romantic getaways are a specialty here at Mooncottage, with an ambiance that incites romance at every glance. Guests routinely call it a “Simply Perfect” experience.
2. Spectacular Ocean Views. When you arrive at Mooncottage, you will simply not believe your eyes. Our sweeping down-island views are the benchmark for 5-star St. John villas vistas.
3. Just Feels Right. Unlike staying at larger St John villa rentals, you’ll never feel lost at Mooncottage. The ideal vacation spot to both revitalize and make you feel right at home.
4. Totally Private. This romantic villa is unseen from the road (or even from your private driveway), and is located at the end of a private road, so no cars driving by.
5. Magical Ambiance. Mooncottage has an exotic "look & feel" that was part of its unique design—a St. John villa vacation destination that blends the inside with the outside for an utterly relaxing experience. Exceeding all expectations, Mooncottage takes full advantage of the sunshine, soft trade breezes, and natural splendor of a lush tropical hillside.
IMPORTANT NOTICES:
1. Our most happy guests usually stay for 7-14+ nights. Stays of 4-6 nights are available for a additional $250 short-stay fee. Cleaning fees and VI Hotel Taxes of 12.5% will apply.
2. Travel Insurance: Please consider Trip Cancellation Insurance for any unexpected problems, such as family emergencies or rare severe weather-related problems. We always try to work with our guests, but cannot be held responsible for refunds to these or other like occurrences.
3. Rental Agreement: You must sign our standard rental agreement and liability waiver. Once you book, we will send you our standard terms and conditions via DocuSign for your endorsement. We will require your name, physical address, email, and phone number.
4. Satisfaction: We like to speak to our guests on the phone before finalizing the booking for Mooncottage. This is often not possible due to wholesalers' rules and regulations. Therefore, if for any reason you are not comfortable with anything once we DO speak on the phone, we will do our utmost to find a solution. Please note that our Rental Agreement and Liability Waiver will supersede any prior agreements if your reservation was made through a wholesaler or travel agent.
5. You will require a 4-wheel drive vehicle.
6. Rentals falling on or around Thanksgiving will have a 10% nightly upcharge, and rentals falling on or around Christmas and New Year will have a 15% nightly upcharge. This upcharge may not be reflected in your automated online quotation.
7. We will answer all questions via text on any wholesaler's message portal and respect them as our partners. Still, we like to speak to our guests personally on the phone before they book to ensure they understand everything about the villa, the locale, and St John in general. After booking, we work closely with our guests to ensure a flawless vacation and help you with general information.
8. We are the only Mooncottage on St John...we look forward to welcoming you!

Located in St. John, this villa is in a rural area and by the sea. While the natural beauty of Virgin Islands National Park and Cinnamon Bay Beach can be enjoyed by anyone, those looking for an activity can explore Tortola Cruise Ship Port.
Scuba diving, snorkelling and power boating offer great chances to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with hiking/biking trails nearby.

About the host
Hosted by Janet and Angela

My wife and I purchased Mooncottage from the original owner and it is truly our "home away from home." We have experience managing rentals and always seek to create only the finest experience for our guests.
Why they chose this property
St. John is the most beautiful and pristine island in the Caribbean ... as well as one of the most natural and relaxing. You can go out in the day or evening and feel safe anywhere. The island is 2/3 National Park - meaning the beaches and trails are always maintained, kept clean and free of vendors. Mooncottage is surrounded by undeveloped land on 3 sides and has only one villa below to call its neighbor (which you can't see), called Teahouse Treehouse. We also rent and manage Teahouse Treehouse. Nature is everywhere and the trade wind breezes day or night are soft and magical. There is only ONE Mooncottage.
