Rebecca's Fancy -- directly across from Hansen Bay

Rebecca's Fancy is ideal for couples who enjoy swimming, snorkeling, SCUBA, kayaking, SOP, sailing, hiking, star gazing, fishing, and beach combing right outside your door. Shallow calm waters, cool tropical tradewinds, lush landscaping, amazing rainbows, and enchanting starry nights await.

The spotless air-conditioned, one bedroom, one bath cottage has full kitchen with dishwasher, decks and patio with chaise lounges and gas grill. Rebecca's Fancy was designed and equipped with full amenities for your comfort and convenience. Nature provides all the sights, sounds and smells.

The friendly easy-going island of St. John remains one of the most pristine and uncrowded in the Caribbean. Most of St. John's land (2/3's) and surrounding waters are managed by the United States National Park Service. Rebecca's Fancy is located on the east end of St John on Hansen Bay, directly across from the accessible sandy beach.

After driving through the National Park's Hurricane Hole you arrive at the quiet East End that is remote and completely surrounded by aquamarine crystal clear waters, white sand beaches and breathtaking views. Several uncrowded beaches are a walk away. A relaxing ten minute drive to Coral Bay and you will enjoy dining, live music, horseback riding and boutique shopping. National Park activities are nearby.

Because our electricity is expensive and unreliable we installed a 8kwh solar system in 2013. We are powering the cottage and main house 100% with solar power and a battery backup system.

The Best Experience

Perfect location

If your desire is to snorkel, kayak and swim this is your ideal place. We loved being able to do this without getting in the car. The quiet and peaceful location suited us and had everything we needed for an extended stay. The hosts were delightful and helpful and the views memorable.

Wonderful Cottage, Amazing Location!

Our stay at Rebecca's Fancy allowed us to spend most of our days across the street at Hanson's Bay, where we enjoyed snorkeling, swimming and beach play. Jay set up a covered shelter over their picnic table on the beach, so we had shade and a place to put our stuff. We did drive out to Cruz Bay and the north shore beaches one of our days, and spent one day at Salt Pond bay, but we were there for the snorkeling and quiet relaxation, so there was no need to spend too much time driving about. Jay and Athena were wonderful hosts, and the cottage was very nice. We were surprised at the high cost of food (~ 3x the cost of groceries at home), and the lack of much island-grown fruits or veggies. There are several restaurants/bars and 3 grocery stores in Coral Bay, which is a ~ 20 minute drive away. We are definitely hoping to return here!

A week in paradise

My husband and I were looking for a relaxing, secluded place to spend our vacation - Rebecca's Fancy was everything we wanted and more. Located in the beautiful and remote East End of St. John, the property was extremely well kept, comfortable, full of thoughtful amenities and decor. The wraparound deck offered stunning views, and we spent each morning enjoying the sounds of the birds and wildlife, basking in the breathtaking vista of teal waters and lush mountains across the way. The bay is just steps away from the cottage and offers a lovely sandy beach as well as plenty of reefs for snorkeling and exploring. Jay was the perfect host, an endless source of information and laughs - he made himself available whenever we needed him while also giving us plenty of space and privacy the rest of our stay. Thank you Jay and Athena for the most beautiful memories in your little slice of paradise. We are already dreaming of our return.

Another blissful stay

As usual, we enjoyed every moment of our getaway to the East End of the island in this cozy cottage, especially prime location to the waters edge on the beautiful Hansen Beach. The cottage has all you need for a resting place after a full days journey around the island. Thank you again Jay and Athena! See you next year, God willing!

Fantastic Property to Relax & Enjoy Quiet Beach

This was our second stay at Rebecca's Fancy & it will not be our last. Perfect accommodations for two people who are wanting to relax. We enjoyed beach & great snorkeling. View from property is amazing. Jay & Athena are the best hosts we have had through VRBO and we have had some really good ones over the years so that is saying alot.

“Just another day in paradise”

In our favorite little part of the island lies the coziest cottage overlooking the crystal blues of Coral Bay. Jay’s build perfectly embodies the heart of St John, allowing cool breezes to float through the windows. The porch sitting is one of the best on the island. The king bed invites you to play with its plush surface and white linens, the soft white curtains floating in the breeze. While quaint accommodations, you don’t need anything more to rest after a day of adventuring the island. WiFi is quick, so you can connect back to life when and if needed! We will be back again as this place has become our yearly summer disconnect. Thank you Jay and Athena!

Amazing

We loved our stay here! This end of the island is so peaceful, which is exactly what we wanted. If you are looking for seclusion, this is the place! The sunsets and rainbows over the beach are incredible! The highlight was watching the total lunar eclipse from the front porch. Jay and Athena were amazing hosts. I think we would have taken them home as our souvenirs! They truly love the island. Dinner the first night after a long day was such a thoughtful gesture. We cannot wait to return!

Perfect and relaxing vacation

Hosts Athena and Jay are very warm and caring people and they treat you like friends. Location is unbeatable - from the deck there is a wide view of the Caribbean sea and you are right across a sandy beach with excellent snorkeling. You can see turtles right next to the shore and if you venture a bit further towards Pelican Rock you will discover a magnificent coral garden. The cottage has everything you need - a very comfortable bed, quality bedding and towels, enough pots and pans, and a grill for cooking your own meals. The driveway is rather steep but you can just park your car before the gate and walk to the cottage for about half of a minute - we are not spring chickens and it was not a problem at all for us.

Can’t go wrong…

We have been looking to stay at Rebecca’s Fancy for years and just recently got our chance. We were so pleased to find that it did not disappoint. The cottage is well-equipped, clean, and has amazing views. The private beach access makes you feel like you have the place all to yourself. Jay and Athena were incredibly hospitable- making us yummy treats and checking in, but not being too intrusive. The care and love they have for their home and STJ in general is evident and transfers into a carefree environment for the perfect vacation.

Excellent Stay

Great location right across from a beautiful beach with great snorkeling. No driving necessary. The cottage is small and simple, but perfect for a couple. It has everything you need, including a comfortable bed, and plenty of room to relax outside on chairs and loungers. I took some great hikes along the quiet paved road. Take a right or a left at the bottom of the driveway, take your time (these hills are steep) and keep walking until you've crested the hill. You will be rewarded with the most beautiful views you've ever seen! Owners are close by (but not overbearing). They are fun to talk to and the stories of their island experience are inspiring. Athena had dinner ready for us when we arrived late at night after a long day of travel. Much appreciated. You probably want to load up on groceries in Cruz Bay on your way here. The east end is remote, but that's why we chose it.

Perfect Cottage for Peaceful Stay

The cottage was absolutely perfect for 2 of us on our trip to St. John. Jay & Athena are absolutely wonderful people and gracious hosts. We thoroughly enjoyed our conversations with them about life on St. john (and a piece of Dominica!). The cottage is in a quiet spot on the east end, right across the street from Hansen Bay. It was a quiet slice of paradise for an evening swim on a deserted beach and back to the cottage to listen to the waves while sipping local rum on the patio. Thank you Jay & Athena for sharing your paradise with us! -Sean & Rebecca

Acerca del anfitrión

Anfitrión: JAY & ATHENA

Foto de perfil del anfitrión
Greetings, after living in the Philadelphia area our entire lives and raising our 3 children there, we relocated to St. John in 2002 fulfilling a 12 year dream (plan)of living in our paradise. We have been fortunate to have traveled and visited many beautiful places around the world. When we first visited St John in 1989 we knew we found our paradise.

We designed and built Rebecca's Fancy ourselves to provide a practical and fun place to enjoy all that St John has to offer. Athena and I take pleasure in sharing our blessings with others. As our guests, you too will enjoy the magical sights, sounds and smells of St. John. Athena and Jay Swartley

Por qué eligió esta propiedad

We choose this property because of it's proximity to the beach and the sea 100 feet away! St. John is a small 20 square mile mountainous island with a limited number of properties that are on the water. Rebecca's Fancy is less than a quarter mile from the end of the road that begins at the ferry dock in Cruz Bay. This provides us a very quiet, peaceful place to live and enjoy all that St John has to offer.

Qué distingue a esta propiedad

Living in a private, quiet and safe community is a blessing. Most of our neighbors are full time residents. We chose to live here because we are remote and we hear the lapping up of the Hansen Bay waves, very serene...
