Great for family

This was a wonderful spot to spend a week with our young kids and their grandparents. The location could not have been more convenient when arriving off the ferry and to explore Cruz Bay after the beaches every day. We will be back!

Relaxation awaits!!

We came to St. John for a wedding and needed accommodations near the events that were planned. This listing hit the mark! A bonus was the amazing views and a very comfortable place to unwind between festivities. We loved the convenience of the parking garage for our rental vehicle. The storage locker was well stocked with all the fun things needed for our day at the beach.

Spacious condo with all the amenities you need

Clean, great location walkable to shops, bars and restaurants, across the street from the beach. Nice pool with lounge chairs. Would definitely stay again! FYI VRBO listing states meet and greet at dock which is no longer available but condo is easy to find by walking through shopping area. Be prepared to handle your luggage.

Amazing Property and Perfect Location

We spent 8 nights at Southern Serenity and everything was perfect. The view was absolutely incredible. We loved being in Cruz Bay, near restaurants, taxis to the beaches, and the ferry. The condo was spacious and comfortable. We even tried to book for next year but, sadly for us, it’s already booked! Can’t wait to go back!

Took my daughter and her bestie out there for a long 21st bday weekend. This place most definitely lives up to the hype! Proximity is everything and the Staff.... Can't possibly say enough about the amazing people working there. It's going to be extremely difficult for me to stay at any other location on St. John after that amazing weekend.

Paradise

This is our second time staying here! We absolutely love it! We had a group of 6. We picked up some basic groceries and would typically make breakfast then venture out for the day. It’s just steps away from Cruz Bay to shop, eat at, and easy to catch a taxi. The house provides towels, floats and beach chairs. We love this property and would absolutely return again!

AMAZING PLACE!!

This was our first time staying at Grande Bay, and it did not disappoint! Southern Serenity was the perfect villa for our family. Everything inside of the villa was clean and very well kept. The internet worked perfectly. The views were amazing at any hour of the day. You could not ask for a better location that right at the edge of Cruz Bay. The Grane Bay staff was very accomodating and friendly.

About the host

Hosted by Marsha Blair

Host profile image
JW and Suzy are married with 4 children that affectionately refer to St John as they home away from home. When they can't visit the clear blue waters of the Virgin Islands, they enjoy time on the Crystal Coast of North Carolina.

Why they chose this property

We discovered our love of St John from JW's parents and immediately fell in love with the island's laid back lifestyle and spectacular beaches. Our children have grown up vacationing here with us as often as possible and have fallen in love as well! We hope you love the island like we all do!

What makes this property unique

Grande Bay is a short walking distance to town, where you'll find many restaurants and shops as well as the ferry dock and taxis. You can stay at Grande Bay and enjoy the pool or venture out and explore the many beaches the island offers. There is an underground parking garage and a security officer always on duty. The fully equipped fitness center is on site and overlooks Cruz Bay beach and harbor.
