Bon Bini features a well-equipped kitchen, suitable for making meals during a relaxing evening in. The living area offers a cozy couch with views, air conditioning, an indoor dining table, and a private and spacious attached half bath. The kitchen, living room area, and half bathroom make up one building of Bon Bini Cottage.
The second building of the cottage is home to the private & quaint bedroom with attached full bathroom. Complete with a queen sized bed, it is outfitted with air conditioning to keep you cool after a day in the St. John sun. The attached bathroom offers an indoor shower, clothes washer/dryer and large vanity.
At Bon Bini Cottage, the private deck is the perfect place to enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning as the sun rises or listen to the enchanting sounds of tree frogs at night. Relaxing in the hot tub for two under the stars is a wonderful way to end the day. The outdoor shower showcases the view of Coral Bay while still being completely private. Lounging chairs to soak up the sun and an outdoor grill complete the space.
The cottage is also stocked with lots of beach gear, including: two beach chairs, four beach towels, a small cooler with ice packs, floats, and two inflatable stand-up paddleboards!
The property where Bon Bini Cottage is located is often visited by sheep, goats, donkeys, chickens, and tortoises. There is also lots of lizards/geckos and birds (thrashers, bananaquits, & hummingbirds) around at all times. Finally, it is important that we note to guests that a cat named Sebastian visits the cottage frequently and enjoys being pet. Sebastian has a comfortable home with plenty of food and water (he is not a stray cat!), but enjoys making his rounds at all the houses on the hillside. If you do not enjoy the company of roaming cats (or possibly other wildlife), Bon Bini Cottage may not be well-suited for your time on St. John.
The location of the cottage is the perfect mix of tranquility and convenience. A quick drive down the mountain leads you to the town of Coral Bay. Various restaurants (many with with live music), a grocery store, mini mart, and shops are all located within a five or ten minute drive. The beaches of the North Shore (including the notable Maho Bay and more secluded Francis Bay) are less than 15 minutes away. Visitors looking to enjoy the locals crowd on the beaches can venture to the East End of St. John or Salt Pond and Lameshur Bays in 20 minutes.
Please note that we have one NEST camera in the driveway/parking area. This camera records movement, but not sound.
