Kick back & relax in this calm, beachy-style one-bedroom apartment. You'll fall in love with this unique space from the moment you park on-site and walk the lit stone pathway to your private entrance. Complete renovations were finished in 2022, including 2 a/c units, a full kitchen, living room, indoor & outdoor dining space, private bedroom, oversized shower w/rainfall showerhead, multiple water filtration + uv system, and more! Everyone will enjoy "Takin' it Breezy" & feel right at home.

The space
A lovely couple lives on the top portion of the property, this rental is the lower level of their home with its own private entrance. No worries of any kind, as the homeowners are knowledgeable of their home and the island. They will be available only if needed and will most definitely give you your privacy and space.
Located an easy 8-minute drive from downtown, you and the homeowners will share a private home and U-shaped driveway with an allotment for one vehicle for you (a rental SUV/Jeep Wrangler is highly encouraged). There is a lit stone pathway around the side of the home, down a few wide stairs leading to the private lower level entrance.
Just past the door is your own private patio, with a char-broiled grill and a four-person dining table with an umbrella. Further down the large patio is a door with a washer/dryer combo for you to use during your visit, plus two sun chairs. Be sure to chill out with a beer and watch the sunset from the patio!
Walking inside, you will immediately notice all of the windows (with shades) and the open floor plan with tile throughout the apartment. The fully stocked kitchen is straight ahead, with a two-person dining table underneath a large window that overlooks the patio.
The full kitchen includes everything you will need for your stay:
✦ Full-size refrigerator/freezer with ice maker
✦ Gas stovetop and oven
✦ Microwave
✦ Drip coffee maker with coffee
✦ Toaster

The living room is welcoming with a comfy couch (it's actually a sleeper sofa!), chest, and a chair with padded footstool underneath a wall-mounted a/c unit and ceiling fan.
A 42" HD tv with WIFI access allows you to unwind and stream your favorite shows after a long day at the beach. Cabinet allows space for your laptop and more.
Our full bathroom showcases a stunning, large open shower with a glass wall enclosure and privacy window. Two shelves in the shower plus a three-drawer vanity give you plenty of room for bathroom items. A small number of travel-size bathroom essentials are included, plus a hairdryer.
The bedroom has another large closet with hangers and a shoe divider. In the corner are two shelves with extra space underneath for you to store your suitcases during your visit. A tall 5-drawer white dresser and a 3-drawer nightstand provide more storage space. Underneath another wall-mounted a/c unit is a queen bed on a large rug with lots of pillows. A chair with a footstool sits underneath more large windows with shades and a ceiling fan. A 42" HD tv with WIFI access rounds out this private bedroom with a locking door.
We look forward to you "Takin' it Breezy" on St. John!

Guest access
You will be able to access the area/walkway to the lower level and the lower level unit as described above in "The space". The lower-level patio is also accessible, as well as the washer/dryer.
Anything on the upper level is not accessible to renters, including the locked barn doors & rock pathway past the washer/dryer, and the upstairs patio.

Other things to note
NOT SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN UNDER FIVE (5) as we are unfenced, close to a road, and the backyard is steep in certain areas. Take caution alongside the edges of the patio & backyard.

Native animals may be present outdoors at any time, like cows, chickens, roosters, iguanas, geckos, goats, donkeys, birds, feral dogs, feral cats, mongoose, etc. Take caution, we are known to have iguanas falling out of the trees.

The unit is all on one floor, but there are several outdoor stairs to get to the unit from the driveway, one stair to get inside, and one stair for the deck.

Exact location details will be given post-booking, along with our detailed, personally constructed guidebook.

Items MUST be returned (coolers, towels, kitchen items, etc.). We appreciate you taking care of the items we provide, so future guests can enjoy them as well.
