About this property

Salty Kisses & Goodnight Wishes-Come enjoy St. John, USVI, in peaceful Coral Bay

Salty Kisses & Goodnight Wishes is a one bedroom (with AC), fully equipped, home on the peaceful side of St. John, in lovely Coral Bay.
Coral Bay’s bars, restaurants and small shops are just a few minutes down the road and the North Shore beaches are short 10-minute drive away. And if you are seeking a bit more excitement Cruz Bay is not far and we can even arrange taxi service if you would like to plan a carefree night on the “town”.
While you can always enjoy a gentle breeze and very few bugs the house also features ceiling fans and AC.
The bedroom has a luxurious queen size bed, DISH television and DVD player, and offers beautiful views of the lush green mountains from the slider doors that lead to the expansive deck.
The living room is inviting and offers a carefully curated library of books that tell you the story of St. John (fiction and non fiction) as well as a collection of games, birding books and binoculars to enjoy the daily feathered visitors. DISH television and DVD player and Bluetooth speakers allow you to play your own soundtrack for your stay in paradise.
The full kitchen has everything you could want including; microwave; dishwasher; coffee maker, toaster, blender; full sets of dishes, glasses, pots and pans, knives etc. unleash your inner chef if you are so inclined. Or enjoy the delicious selection of restaurants situated in Coral Bay.
The deck offers a lovely view of Coral Bay harbor and has a dining area as well as comfy outdoor sofa. In fact that is where we spend most of our time when we are there!
Private driveway and quiet neighborhood make this a perfect place to relax and let Love City recharge your soul.
WIFI provided and AT&T cell signal is excellent at the property.

Perfect for Our Purpose

The house was exactly as advertised and perfectly situated between the less-touristy sides of the Island. We were there for the National Park experience primarily, and the house's location was a short distance to all things interesting: hiking, snorkeling, bars, and grocery stores. The driveway is a bit daunting, particularly without back-up cameras in a lot of the rental vehicles, but it is doable. The large patio is meant for sipping cocktails and every possible cooking utensil was there. Amanda was charming and helpful. Just what we wanted!

Wish We Could Have Stayed Longer!

This was a beautiful, relaxing place to be! We loved the deck, it was the perfect place to relax after a busy day of hiking and snorkeling. The location was wonderful, away from busy Cruz Bay and close to the quieter Coral Bay. We will recommend this property to anyone we know. It was altogether a lovely place and we would stay there again!

Great hillside stay

Excellent place for some relaxation and exploring of the island. Very good accommodations overlooking Coral Bay. The supplies are very plentiful within the kitchen and linen supplies. The cooler and beach accessories are very helpful. We used the chairs, beach towels, cooler and floaties daily. Overall, this place is great! The only drawback is that the main road down the hill does lead to a fair amount of vehicle noise at times. So it's not always peaceful and quiet. That is hard to find though on a smaller island like this.

Everything was wonderful!

My husband and I enjoyed our week here very much. The home was exceptionally clean and very, very well stocked with everything we could use.There was ample towels for the beach, towels for the bathroom, beach noodles, beach chairs and umbrella. carrying bags for the grocery store. The bathroom had more than enough toilet paper, little bottles of soap, shampoo, and conditioner. More than we could possibly use.For us, the location was perfect as it was very close to the beautiful beaches and Skinny Legs restaurant.There were plenty of books and maps for us to acclimate and get accustomed to the area as well as a perfectly functioning television with live TV and a plethora of movie and series options. There was definitely truth in advertising because everything we saw before we looked at our vacation was definitely there plus more. My husband and I very highly recommend this place. Thank you very much.Susie & John M.

A spectacular gem!

The accommodations were superb! Everything was as advertised, the view was spectacular, it was very comfortable and clean. The amenities were great. It had it all! The host was extremely responsive, and easy to reach. St. John’s doesn’t disappoint from the beaches, hiking, and shopping, and this spot is at the top of my list of places to return to.

Close to restaurants and town but still tucked away

We really enjoyed our stay here. We really liked that there was a less than 5 minute drive to so many restaurants and the town but was still private and quiet.

Perfect getaway!

This place is a little gem on St. John! It had absolutely everything we needed-from beach chairs and bags to suntan lotion and bug spray. It is on the quiet side of the island, which I love, and close to the restaurants in Coral Bay and some of our favorite North Shore beaches. The home was super clean, the bed was comfortable and the air conditioning is a huge plus. Would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Perfectly peaceful place in Coral Bay!

We had a great time at Amanda's place. Everything was very clean, super quiet and very peaceful. Plenty of deck space to enjoy the wonderful views of the valleys and the bay. The AC was a super plus for us and made the stay very comfortable. House had alot of interesting reading material about St. John and the neighboring islands. Everything we needed to make the stay completely comfortable. Absolutely would stay there again. Thank you!

Just what I was looking for

Great place (exactly like the online photos) with great amenities- beach chairs, cooler, etc. I took advantage of renting the jeep which was a great way to get around the island. As a solo traveler, it was much appreciated to be met at the ferry after a day of traveling and then drive back to the villa. Communication was great as well.

Best spot on the Coral Bay side of the island.

Amanda’s Coral. Bay spot is perfect. It’s clean, well taken care of and in a beautiful spot. You can get to many beaches with just a short drive.

Quiet days in Coral Bay

First time here and a good choice to stay away from the hustle of the Cruz area. Easy drive up to the North Shore beaches and close to amenities. The property was exactly what we were looking for and had everything we needed to be comfortable. Looking forward to our return trip to St John.

Great Hosts

We had a great time staying at Amanda’s. The house was very clean, the beds comfortable, and the sheets were amazing. The kitchen was well stocked with everything I needed to cook dinner for us. She is extremely accurate with the description of the listing and the intricacies of Island life. The power went out for two days during our stay, but Amanda was very communicative before hand and prepared us with water flashlights and a battery operated fan. I’ve never had a more communicative host that made sure we were as comfortable as possible.

Our favorite VRBO stay on St. John

Clean, easy to get to, quiet, and just right for 2 people. Owner lives downstairs but you'd never know that anyone is there...but she is there if you need anything, even a rental Jeep. We have stayed in 10 properties on St. John over a 25-year period, and this is our favorite. Hope to get back again soon.

We LOVED IT!!! The location was perfect for us! 10 -15 minute ride to most all our favorite beaches and minutes from our favorite restaurants and shops. Living in among the Coral Bay residents has become our favorite spot! The house itself was perfect, clean and well appointed, it had all we needed and Amanda was GREAT!

Wonderful trip

My mom and I loved staying here. It provided everything we needed and more. The bed was so comfy and so was the indoor and outdoor couch! The breeze that goes through the property is so nice whether you are inside or out. The house was so easy to get to and a great location for the places we wanted to visit on this trip! It’s right there in Coral Bay and very easy to get to the North Shore beaches. I highly recommend this property.
