About this property
Gorgeous one bedroom penthouse with breathtaking view
What a view! Did we mention that the view from this Penthouse is spectacular. And that is not to mention the Penthouse itself. Again, spectacular. Combine the view and the Penthouse and it is just perfect for the two of you. Perfect!
You know that St. John is calling you home, pulling you back to the Caribbean’s unmatched blue green waters and pristine beaches! Enjoy your stay in this beautifully decorated one-bedroom penthouse suite located perfectly in the heart of Cruz Bay in Grande Bay Resort with spectacular views of the waters surrounding St. John and the USVI.
Tastefully decorated, this unit is furnished with a king size bed and is ideal for a couple celebrating a honeymoon, a birthday, an anniversary or just life! The full kitchen is well equipped and includes a dining table for two that looks out into Cruz Bay. The living room is also complete with comfortable seating and a TV. One of your favorite places to relax will be out on your private balcony – the perfect spot to enjoy your morning cup of coffee while you take in the beauty of St. John’s mountains in the background and the brilliant blue of the Caribbean just beneath the balcony. You’ll find beach chairs, coolers and beach towels for your daily trips to Maho, Trunk, Honeymoon or any of the equally beautiful beaches that St. John has to offer! This unit will provide for your every need both at home or on the beach.
You’ll find that the shops in town, ferry dock and taxi stand are just a short walk on the beach away from your location. Many fine restaurants are positioned within just steps and offer gorgeous quiet morning views of the water or stunning sunset views in the evenings!
Grande Bay Resort provides a fantastic swimming pool and deck for sunbathing as well as a gym featuring the equipment you would want for a good workout. Whatever you need, we have it here to make your stay special.
Once you book, our management team will contact you and assist with any specific needs you have to make your vacation and visit to our island memorable. They can help you arrange for a jeep or car rental, provisions for the condo, or answer any questions you may have about St. John.
If this is your first trip to our island, welcome!! Please let us know and we will send you our recommendations for restaurants and beaches although you will find you can’t go wrong! We hope you and your loved one enjoy St. John as much as we do, and you leave feeling relaxed and ready to come back!

About the host
Hosted by Suzy Blair
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.
