Another great stay at Seaside
Thank you for another great stay in the Seaside Studio. The room had everything we needed including such a convenient location to town. Looking forward to our next visit.
We enjoyed staying in this lovely studio suite. Everything was perfect. Tracy was very helpful when we had an unexpected issue. This issue was not related to the condo and she still helped us out. We are very appreciative.
Great location to everything and view of Cruz Bay!

Quiet, clean, beautiful view
My wife and I were on island for 12 days. The last three nights were spent at the seaside studio. We like the short walk to Cruz bay and all it has to offer the studio was clean quiet and the bed was extremely comfortable. Would definitely end our vacations at the condo in the future.

Perfect stay for a couple!
The Seaside Studio Suite was exactly as described. The location at Grande Bay was ideal for beach days, an afternoon cocktail, and dinner. The suite was very clean and comfortable. The balcony was perfect place to relax for a cocktail after a long day in the sun. There was easy access to many bars, excellent restaurants and shopping within walking distance. Tracy was quick to respond to emails. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting a relaxing vacation in St. John.
The unit I rented was exactly as described and pictured. The unit was perfect, very clean, the bed was very comfortable. The property was very clean. It was just a short walk from the ferry to Grande Bay.

Great location and amenities for everything we needed!
Great location within walking distance to everything in Cruz Bay. Room was equipped with everything we needed and more. We spent nights on the balcony or across the street on the beach. Washer and dryer were a nice bonus and the all of the basics were available in the kitchen. Would highly recommend for a small group or expand to the room next door.

Absolutely perfect
This was our second stay in one of Tracy's Condos, her communication is the best and she's always so helpful!
The condos are so beautiful and the view is amazing!!
She has absolutely everything you need for a perfect week on beautiful St John,
including, Beach chairs, snorkel gear, a cooler and noodles.
We could not have been happier with choosing her condo and will definitely be booking with her again on our future trips.
We had a fabulous stay at this lovely property. The condo was beautifully furnished, extremely clean, and very well equipped. The studio was more than big enough for two people and we didn't miss having a separate bedroom at all. Even though Grande Bay is within walking distance of bars and restaurants, the condo has great soundproofing and was very quiet at night. Workout room, pool and hot tub were all first rate. The owner was a delight to deal with, and all aspects of the rental process were handled professionally. We loved St. John and and hope to stay at this condo again on a return visit.

Perfect Place to Stay!
My husband and I traveled to St. John this month for a quick "kids-free" 4-day vacation. We stayed at Grande Bay for the 2nd time, and in this studio for the first time. This is a fabulous studio. Everything is very clean, attractive, and comfortable. The location of Grande Bay cannot be beat. We would stroll into town and grab a taxi to take us to one of the amazing beaches. We walked everywhere else (shopping, restaurants, bars, and even to get supplies). So there is no need to rent a car. The ammenties at Grande Bay are fantastic- beautiful pool and great exercise room. We will definitely stay at Grande Bay and in this studio again!

The Perfect Location
My husband and I stayed in this Suite for four nights June 2012. The owner, Tracy, was great to deal with and her property manager, Rachelle, was the best. The studio was beautifully furnished and its location, right accross the street from Cruz Bay, could not be beat. We really enjoyed watching the boat activity and the location allowed us to walk to restaurants and shops. It was less than a block from Wharfside and the Beach Bar and Joe's Rum Hut. The Grande Bay Resort is top notch and we enjoyed swimming in the pool and sunning on the pool deck, which overlooked the bay. The resort staff happily filled our ice chest so we could bring cold drinks to the pool deck. We have been coming to St. John since 1995 and would stay in this unit again and happily recommend it to others.

Great Location if you want to stay in town!
Staying at the Seaside Studio Suite was the perfect location to have as our base for the week. The suite was the perfect size for the two of us. We enjoyed having a full size fridge in the kitchen and the kitchen supplies were enough to meet our needs. Every morning we had our coffee and breakfast on the balcony while we watched the ferry and other boats get started for the day. We spent our days exploring the island and then returned to shower and have happy hour on the balcony before dinner. It was super convenient to be able to walk right into town to eat without having to worry about driving on the roads in the dark. Every day we used the beach chairs, cooler and beach towels that were provided in the Suite. For parking we got a weekly pass through Slim Man’s and ended up using their overflow/additional lot (EZ parking) across from Woody’s. That worked out well and was conveniently located only a few minutes walk from Grande Bay. The booking process was simple and the communications from the owner were timely and easy to follow. The check in and check out process were easy as well. We definitely recommend staying here if you want to stay in town during your time on St John.
The property was everything my girlfriend and I were looking for and more! The location is perfect with the most gorgeous view of Cruz Bay. Tracy is a wonderful and responsive host and I look forward to booking again!
Beautiful views off balcony. Convenient having the kitchen and washer/dryer. Location couldn't be better. However, the unit was not clean when we arrived.
The listing for this unit is accurate. It’s a very spacious studio condo. Very clean and comfortable. It was great having breakfast on the balcony and looking out at Cruz Bay. The location was perfect. Very short walk from the ferry. Easy walk to restaurants , bars and hiking trails, including a nice trail that takes you to Solomon Beach or Honeymoon Beach. We did take cabs to more distant beaches but that was still better than the expense of a car rental. Check in process was easy and the woman who helped us was super nice. I would definitely rent this condo again.
We stayed here for our honeymoon couldn’t have had a better time. The place is very clean has everything you need and the staff was very friendly and helpful.
We loved our stay! Was in walking distance from all the great places to eat however super quiet at night when trying to sleep. We would highly recommend it!
We had a great time during our stay in this lovely studio! It had everything we needed and was a quick (<5min) walk to town. The location couldn’t have been more perfect! Looking forward to staying here again in the future!

About the host
Hosted by Tracy Pajewski, Owner
We have been visitors to St. John since our first trip in February of 2002. Since that visit, we have been back at least once a year and have shared the island with our children, friends and family members. We know that we are blessed to be able to realize our dream of owning property on St. John. We feel that we have found our place in paradise and we love sharing it with others.
Why they chose this property
We searched for years for the perfect place on St. John and came to love Grande Bay. The location right in town can not be beat. For us, the perfect day includes making breakfast, heading to a beach or two then coming home to clean up and head out to enjoy dinner. Grande Bay provides us with all the amenities of home with a full kitchen, large showers, comfortable furnishings and an easy walk to the perfect restaurant or bar. We know that you will love it as much as we do!
What makes this property unique
When we have the opportunity to stay at Grande Bay, we enjoy having breakfast on the balcony while listening to the waves and watching Cruz Bay come to life. We love taking the beach chairs and coolers to a different beach each day and snorkeling or hiking up to Ram Head or along another amazing trail. We enjoy all the comforts of home along with staff that will assist us or answer any questions we might have. If we decide to forgo the beach, we have the option of relaxing on the pool deck and enjoying the pool and hot tub. We especially like walking into town less than 100 yards for a delicious meal or island drink
