Penthouse getaway

We loved staying at the penthouse. It had everything we needed. It is an easy walk to downtown. The deck is a great place to watch the coming and going of the bay. We will be returning!!!

Paradise Revisited

This was our, now, annual trip to St John to get out of the winter cold and our 2nd stay at Grande Bay Resort. This unit has a beautiful view and a comfortable porch/balcony. Bed/bedding very comfortable; we fixed several meals in the kitchen which had what we needed. The owner, Pam, is delightful and communication with her was easy. As usual, St John did not disappoint….. it’s so relaxing!!!

Amazing location!

Loved the location of this condo, right next to everything in Cruz Bay - no need to take a car, just walk... The outdoor patio is huge and has a great view of Cruz Bay & beyond. Check in was easy & very accommodating. VERY convenient garage parking right under your building & the owner provides beach chairs, etc. Definitely recommend this one!!!

Perfect Cruz Bay Stay

Spent a week in the Love City Penthouse with my fiancé to celebrate my 40th birthday. Our first time in the Caribbean and on Saint John! Darren met us at the dock and was helpful getting us into the unit and acquainted with our accommodations and the area. The penthouse had everything we needed to ensure a great stay after a long journey and we felt comfortable and safe throughout our stay. The location is great and we slept well on the comfortable bed. Looking out on the bay each morning and evening was truly a gift. A short walk to Frank Bay for some sunsets bookended magical days on this gorgeous island. Booked a charter with Morningstar and had a blast learning and exploring the island by boat. A trip I’ll never forget. Would strongly recommend this to any couple looking for a wonderful stay on STJ. Hope to be back! Thank you Pam and company for renting out your place to us!

Nice location - Poor quality

Unit space was small for a Penthouse. Awkward layout - not a comfortable design. Terrible Dinnerware & glassware. Two usable coffee cups and plastic glasses for use that were deformed and old. No glassware at all. Dirty & sandy floors upon arrival. No door mat at entrance to wipe feet before entering unit. No washclothes and just one tea towel and bath towels were poor quality. No bath mat for shower. Washing machine moldy. Outdoor cushions filthy. Great view and location to town. Nice bathroom. Over priced for what it has to offer.

About the host

Hosted by Pam Goggin

We are lovers of the Virgin Islands, St. John, being the nearest and dearest to our hearts. It has brought so much to us in the 25 + years we have been returning to the island. We are sure that St. John will bring as much to you as it has to us. Please never hesitate to get in touch with us for any questions you may have. Thank you in advance for the consideration!!

Why they chose this property

We bought this property to continue bringing ourselves, our children, family and friends to the island. We love the USVIs and BVIs....it has always felt like home to us! We cannot say enough about not only the beauty and serenity St. John oozes, but of the FUN that we have. The people are as beautiful as the views, and we rent our property with the motivation to bring you, your family and friends that same love and fun.

What makes this property unique

These units provide unobstructed views clear from power lines (lower building views can be obstructed by power lines) and panoramic views of both St. Thomas (not visible in the far right units in Grande Bay) and Cruz Bay. Our family loves spending time on the balcony, and we would argue it has one of the best views there is :)
