Oceanfront - A perfect couple's only romantic getaway.

YOUR GUEST SUITE: La Mer
Welcome to Rendezvous by the Sea — a romantic couples-only getaway. Our two guest suites, La Mer and Le Jardin, are housed in a separate building from the main villa, each with its own private entrance and patio. La Mer is the upper suite; Le Jardin is the lower. They can be rented together or separately.
A note on solar power: We have installed solar backup power, so island-wide outages are no longer a concern.
A note on water: Our water is collected from rainfall and purified through a dual filtration and ultraviolet light system. Unlike most rentals, our water is perfectly safe to drink.

BEDROOM
Your suite faces the bay with panoramic ocean views of St. John. The room features a whisper-quiet split air conditioner, or, for those who prefer a natural breeze, two sliding glass doors with screens and a ceiling fan. The king-size bed is fitted with a deluxe pillow-top mattress, 680-thread-count Pima cotton sheets, and four hypoallergenic down pillows. Light-reducing curtains are provided for those who like to sleep in.
The suite is stocked with a mini fridge, microwave, Keurig coffee maker with a selection of coffees and teas, wine glasses and opener, Brita water pitcher and glasses, plates, bowls, cutlery, linen napkins, a cutting board and knife, and kitchen and paper towels. A yoga mat is also available.

BATHROOM
The spacious bathroom features a large walk-in shower. Complimentary Shikai Natural shampoo, conditioner, and body wash are provided, along with four sets of ultra-soft bath towels, hand towels, and washcloths.

MEDIA
A wall-mounted 34" flat-screen HD TV with Roku player lets you stream from your own Netflix, Amazon, and Hulu accounts. High-speed Wi-Fi is included.

DECK
Your private patio is cool and breezy, furnished with cushioned bench seating and a bar-height bistro table and chairs for two — perfect for dining al fresco with ocean views.

POOL
Our deep octagonal pool is ideal for a refreshing dip. It is shared among all guests. Reclining lounge chairs with ottomans are available for sunbathing, and a lower sitting area offers a relaxed spot to enjoy a cocktail while taking in the view.

BEACH & OUTDOOR GEAR
For St. John's beaches, we provide two beach chairs, a cooler, and two oversized plush beach towels.
Rendezvous by the Sea has its own rocky beach, accessible via a steep path from the villa — sturdy walking sandals (not flip-flops) are recommended. Monte Bay offers excellent snorkeling in calm conditions, and the rocky shoreline is wonderful for beachcombing. Please admire any shells or coral but leave them in place — photographs are always welcome.
A blue tandem kayak is available for guest use. Just let us know when you'd like to borrow it and we'll provide paddles and life vests. On calm days, Klein Bay Beach is about a 30-minute paddle away.

HOUSE RULES

No smoking anywhere on the property.
Check-in: 3:00 pm | Check-out: 10:00 am
Conserve water. All water on St. John comes from collected rainfall. Please use it mindfully.
Conserve electricity. Power costs significantly more in the Virgin Islands than on the mainland. Please turn off the A/C whenever you leave the suite. If you'd like to open the doors and windows to enjoy the ocean sounds and breezes, please switch the A/C off first.
During a power outage, our solar battery system will keep essentials running. To help extend battery life during prolonged outages, please conserve electricity until island power is restored — turn off lights, fans, and the A/C when not in use.
No food left out — on the deck or in the suite. Store open, non-refrigerated items in the ziplock bags provided and refrigerated items in the mini fridge.
Trash: Please tie up your trash bags daily and place them in the covered bin provided.
Beach gear: Rinse off all sandy items with the hose provided before returning to the suite. Sand is a precious natural resource and should stay on the beach.
Beach towels only at the beach. Please do not take bath towels outside.
Toilets: Toilet paper only — no feminine hygiene products, wet wipes, or any other items. St. John homes use self-contained sewage treatment systems that are eco-friendly but sensitive; anything other than toilet paper can cause a serious malfunction.
Bathroom sink: Same rule applies — nothing down the drain.
Noise: You'll enjoy full privacy on your deck, but your hosts live on-site. Please be considerate with noise levels after hours. For a livelier evening, St. John has plenty of great nightspots!
