BeachFront Cottage-St John's Best Kept Secret just 2 blks to Town, Rent 1 or 2 B

Seaside Vista was a private home for years. Now the new owner did a total renovation and has placed it on the vacation rental market.

Seaside Vista is the closest oceanfront villa to town; a very unique property, next to Gallows Point. Imagine being able to take a dip in the ocean anytime you like, only steps away from your own beach house! Seaside Vista underwent extensive renovation after the hurricane including new high quality finishes and all new furnishings which will make your stay truly enjoyable.

Over 175 Five Star Reviews on VRBO and Trip Advisor
Book with confidence knowing that past guests have given Seaside Vista their highest ratings.

The villa is equipped with solar panels and a Tesla back-up battery system which automatically engages in the event of a power outage.

Most of the other options available in town are condos. Instead of sharing walls and a building with many others in a condo, you can enjoy the privacy of your own beachfront villa?

in 2018, the owner completed a top to bottom renovation, a real vintage Caribbean Cottage with modern touches done in a way to preserve the unique relaxing cottage feel, yet with an element of understated luxury. Because its just around the corner from Gallows Point, it hides any noise from town, yet its an easy 2 block stroll to the heart of Cruz Bay.

You'll enjoy the soothing sounds of the surf from the large 15' x 20' screened in terrace as you watch the sailboats go by. In the evening, enjoy fabulous sunsets year round plus the twinkling lights of St Thomas.

The air conditioned spacious master bedroom (14' x 12') has a king size bed with direct access to the large ocean view terrace. The bedroom's windows on 3 sides provide cooling Caribbean breezes and an ocean view.

The beautiful Restoration Hardware bath is accessed directly from the master bedroom. Seaside Vista is perfect for a couple as you can rent the cottage with the 2nd bedroom locked, and the rate is priced accordingly. (The 2nd bedroom is never rented to a different party.) The published rate is for the 1 bedroom, up to 2 guests.

The second air conditioned bedroom was thoughtfully designed in a nautical style with new twin bunk beds. A blow up twin mattress is also available for a 3rd child. For convenience, the bathroom is accessible right from the second bedroom as well. The cost for 2nd bedroom/additional guests is $50 per night + tax per guest.

The large newly tiled terrace has plenty of room for relaxing and dining and features all new furniture. The kitchen has been totally remodeled and features new counters, appliances and a more contemporary open floor plan to the living room (20' x 11'). A new counter with bar stools makes it a great place to hang. The living room has large ocean view windows with a comfy sectional couch and a doorway that opens up directly to the terrace. There is also a furnished private courtyard with a grill.

I provide my guests with lots of information to help make their travel to St John and their stay more enjoyable. I invite you to read the guest reviews. Enjoy this pristine cottage all to yourself....a vacation you will truly cherish for years to come.

Note about video on this site: This video was shot before the hurricanes consequently it shows some pre-storm decor and furnishings. The villas has been completely repaired. The villa photos on this site were all taken post storm, that's why you will see some differences. A signed Rental Agreement is required.

Perfect anniversary getaway

Spent a week here celebrating our wedding anniversary. Beautiful sunsets, quiet location close to Cruz Bay, well-equipped villa had everything we needed. The villa owner was very helpful, provided great information, and made our stay an enjoyable and memorable one.

Such a great house - perfect location (walkable to all the restaurants and bars in Cruz Bay), great views and amenities that were provided were exactly what was needed. Michael was a great host as well - he answer all questions promptly and thoroughly. This was our first time on St. John and the information he provided in advance with dining, beach and other recommendations was so incredibly helpful to make it a memorable and enjoyable vacation. Highly recommend this house as a rental- you will not be disappointed!

Beautiful Escape

The Seaside Vista offered an ideal getaway home with gorgeous ocean views on a screened in porch as well as clean & comfortable amenities just walking distance from some of St. John’s best restaurants & shops. The bed was crisp & comfy, the shower bright & refreshing, and the on site washer & dryer a plus. We’d come back every month if we could!

Perfect Location!

My husband and I and our two kids (ages 2 and 4) really enjoyed our stay at Seaside Vista. The location was perfect for us to walk into town for dinner at night and the views of the water were unbelievable. The porch was by far our favorite spot to hang out and take in the view. At night we fell asleep to the sound of the waves. It was paradise! Michael was very accommodating and helpful. We can't wait to return!

Perfect Cottage and Great Host!

Everything about this cottage is awesome. It is located short walking distance to the main part of town but just far enough to be peaceful and private. We spent every morning sipping coffee on the screened in porch while watching sailboats come into the harbor. The sunsets from the porch were spectacular! There are a couple of small shops a few minutes walk away that have any provisions you may need. We didn’t need to rent a car because the taxi stand is a five minute walk. So we spent less money on that than we would have if we rented and didn’t have the stress of navigating the crazy twists and turns of St. John’s roads! Michael, our host, is super responsive and gave us lots of great information and recommendations for our trip. I highly recommend this lovely cottage! Thank you Michael for a great stay!

Great location and beautiful sunset views!

This cottage was ideal for a couple. The views are beautiful from the back porch and the location couldn't be better. We were able to easily walk into Cruz Bay (town) to eat, shop, or go on an excursion. The cottage is small but perfect for 2 people and it has everything you need to cook easy meals. The cooler and beach chairs were also very nice to have. Our favorite part of this rental was the location and how easy it was to navigate from there to different parts of the island. Our favorite day was spent hiking to Salt Pond Bay and around the rocks to the other side then cooling off with a swim in the beach there, Salt Pond Beach (we thought it was the prettiest with the fewest people).

Seaside Vista is a great property

This cottage perched just above Franks Bay is a five minute walk to the Cruz Bay center.You can hear the water lapping on the beach below and the ocean breezes are constantly keeping the place tropically cool. The views west towards St Thomas were stunning from morning to night. The cottage is small but tidy and well appointed with appliances, linens, towels, beach gear, etc. The location is perfect. This was our 7th visit to St John and this property was among our favorites. We always make breakfast at home and pack a cooler for the day so this type of vacation property is perfect. Walk to the town for restaurants/bars/shopping and avoid driving altogether unless visiting one of the many beautiful North Shore beaches or Coral Bay. If you decide to rent for four people be aware the second bedroom shares the bathroom and the space may be tight unless you are very close friends or family. This place is perfect for one couple or a couple with small children.

Cute and convenient

Seaside Vista was a great choice for our weeklong anniversary get away. It was clean, had new furniture, beach supplies (towels, chairs, coolers and yeti-type cups!!) but best of all the view and location were amazing! We’d wake up each morning and open the blinds to a view of the ocean. Then have breakfast on the screened-in patio while enjoying the view of the ocean. When we wanted to go into town, it was so close we could easily walk and not have to deal with parking. Two other points to note - the washer and dryer are a great thing to have to do a mid-week load of laundry and the WiFi worked perfectly (it’s not everywhere on the island so nice to have to catch up on things at home since my cell service was not good). Michael communicated well and sent clear instructions for Check-in and directions for the parking and the apartment ins and outs. I’d recommend this place for the location and views alone! It’s cute, clean and nicely set up but not fancy (so if you want that you may want to stay at the Gallows).

Wishing we were still there!

We had an amazing week stay at Seaside Vista! The location can't be beat and the screened porch is a must-see! We brought our 2 daughters, ages 9 and 6, they stayed in the bunk room and loved it. Every day we would walk to Gallows Point mini mart/gift shop for coffee and after enjoying the morning porch view would take off for the day in our rental jeep to one of the many unbelievable beaches St John has to offer! Michael's guide to the island was so helpful, without it we wouldn't have known to make Waterlemon Cay a definite stopping point and wouldn't have seen all the sea turtles! We also wouldn't have known about the sandwich shops to call ahead for pickup on our way to the beach! After our day at the beach we would return, shower, happy hour on the porch again and then walk 5 minutes into town to one of the many great restaurants. Everything about this vacation was wonderful and Michael was a wonderful host. The only thing I didn't realize was the washing machine and dryer are located outside down a few stairs. It turns out we didn't need them for ourselves anyway, but this I wasn't aware of before we got there! We would definitely stay again in this seaside cottage and hope to return!

Cute little villa with amazing views and great location! Short walk to all the activity of Cruz bay but is also quiet. Screened porch is great. kitchen is more like a kitchenette but we weren't cooking anything but simple breakfast foods. There is a nice grill which would be helpful if you want to cook dinner. The bed is super comfortable and bathroom is nice. It's perfect for 2-3 people. It was also very clean!Michael was a great host and checked in with us to see if we needed anything.

Excellent Location and View

This was our third time staying at Seaside Vista. Being able to easily walk to town is such a perk at this villa. The screened porch is a perfect place to have coffee in the morning or cocktails in the evening while watching the iguanas munching on flowers, the peacocks making their daily commute, or the occasional sting ray leap in the bay all while avoiding the mosquitos! The villa is petite but very cute and well-maintained and has everything we need for a week's stay. The new Tommy Bahama beach chairs and full-sized toiletries provided in the bathroom were also much appreciated!

St. John First Timers

Owner was very communicative in preparation and during stay. He provided guides that not only made the stay at the villa enjoyable, but all the options for activities, food, etc. in St. John. The property was clean and as advertised. It quickly became evident that parking is a premium on St. John and the Villa provided a convenient parking spot. The owner also had a property manager so there were two points of contact if needed. The location provided beautiful views and a location that allowed walking to many restaurants and shops of St. John. Definitely would stay again on our next visit to St. John.

Perfect week in paradise!

We absolutely loved Seaside Vista! It was perfect for my husband and I on our 35th wedding anniversary trip. We stayed for a week. We spent most of our time on the porch, enjoying the beautiful view - one morning we were gifted a double rainbow. Michael and Leslie were outstanding to communicate with, before, during and after our stay. The short walk to Cruz Bay was awesome and we also took walks down to the little rocky beach and on the surrounding roads. Everything was just as described and expected and we will definitely stay here again on another trip to St. John. Thank you for a perfect week in paradise!

Our Week In Paradise

First of all we love St. John ( it is our “One Particular Harbor”)! Second of all, we hit the jackpot when we reserved Seaside Vista Villa! Loved the screened in porch - coffee in the morning and sunset Happy Hour every evening! Our new pastime is watching all the peacocks!! Another plus is how close the Villa is to the heartbeat of Cruz Bay, lots to do in town! The inside of the Villa has all the things you might need. Plenty of towels, dishes, glasses and anything you might need for cooking. It has a nice grill area too. There are even beach towels, beach chairs and a small canopy to pitch at the beach. All in all this was a very stress free vacation you will relax as soon as you arrive! Have fun!!! Jeanne and Rick H.

If you are looking to be within walking distance of the restaurants and shops of Cruz Bay, this is the place for you. Very clean and quiet and wonderful wild life just outside your door. The screened in porch was the real winner. Such a great view and sounds of waves. Would definitely stay there again.
