Frequent visitors to Grande Bay have written 'This is the nicest unit we have stayed in.' It is in the front building on the ideal second floor next to the water.

Picture yourself here! This premiere, quiet one-bedroom condo just feet from the ocean offers views overlooking aqua waters from the roofed front balcony with balustrade. (No building in between.)

A queen size sleeper sofa and chair offer seating for the Sony flat screen TV with DVD player. Original artwork enhances the tropical atmosphere.

The gourmet kitchen is equipped with a stainless steel side-by-side refrigerator with icemaker, dishwasher, microwave and freestanding stove/oven, blender, coffeemaker, and toaster oven. Granite countertops extend out, offering barstool seating for four. Guaranteeing a quiet night's sleep in this tranquil setting, the spacious master bedroom with full bath features Lexington Tommy Bahama furnishings: king-size bed, night tables, and bureau. A back balcony offers sunny views of the ever-blooming, tropical landscaping.

Great unit with lots of amenities

Cute 1 bedroom at Grande Bay. Lots of extras provided. Can’t think of one thing we needed, except a full length mirror! That’s just my preference! We would definitely stay again. Also, the property manager, Rachelle, was very quick at responding to any questions we had. A very pleasant stay and location can’t be beat.

About the host

Hosted by Anna May Charrington

Host profile image
This couple has 3 married children who also enjoy hiking and snorkeling on St. John. He is an environmental engineer; she is a communications director.

Why they chose this property

After years of exploring the Virgin Islands through bareboat sailing rentals, we settled on St. John because of the spectacular scenery, the warmth of the island people, and the perfect weather.

What makes this property unique

We love the ever-changing vistas of the harbor: pelicans diving, sailboats coming and going. The proximity to town is another plus - we love leaving the car behind and walking to the many wonderful restaurants in Cruz Bay.
