The space
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 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.

Guests also have access to a variety of beach items, including beach towels, beach chairs, a small cooler with ice packs, floats, and inflatable stand-up paddle boards. Snorkel gear can be rented from Beach Bum in Cruz Bay or Crabby's Watersports in Coral Bay.

**IMPORTANT --- Although we do provide "beach essentials, as indicated by Airbnb under the "What this place offers" section, please note AirBnB uses a default list that cannot be edited. Snorkel gear is not provided, nor is a beach blanket or beach umbrella. Renting snorkel gear is encouraged to ensure you have clean, sterilized gear that fits and works properly.**

Guest access
Guests have access to all indoor and outdoor spaces of the Cottage.

Other things to note
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.
