About this property

Grande Bay luxury studio

Location. Location. Location. That is what this absolutely gorgeous, completely remodeled studio nestled high above Cruz Bay is all about. You have all the conveniences you need - king bed, sleeper sofa, spacious bath, fully-equipped kitchenette with apartment-sized fridge and a balcony with one of the most impressive views of Cruz Bay and the Caribbean you will ever see. You will find this location perfect, not only for its gorgeous views but because you are off the street far enough that there is no street noise nor bar scene music with absolute privacy. Our studio is on the second floor - actually three stories up because of the garage - of the highest building at Grande Bay Resort. Of course, we have elevators to get you there. You can watch over Cruz Bay, the gorgeous mountains or see nine beautiful island, including St Thomas, from the balcony. Best of all, should your dinner include a few of the islands famous libations, you don't have to get in a car and drive home. You are just steps from your island home.

Grande Bay Resort provides a fantastic swimming pool and pool deck to sunbathe. There is also a very large Jacuzzi. Our gym features the very best equipment for a good workout. Whatever you need, we have it to make your stay special.

Once you book, our management company will contact you and assist you with any needs you have to make your vacation and visit to our island memorable. They can help you provision you studio before your arrival. They greet you at the ferry dock, take you to the studio, answer any questions you may have about St John and are there 24/7 to assist you with any special needs.

St John is unique among Caribbean Islands in that 75% of the island is controlled by the U.S. National Park Service. That means that there are not rows and rows of hotels along our beaches, which is the primary reason our beaches are the best found in the Caribbean. There are as many as 75 little bays where you can snorkel, more than 20 exceptional beaches with wonderful sand, and numerous hiking trails up and down the steep mountains that bring so much beauty to our little island. We have travelled to almost every island in the Caribbean and none are as beautiful or tranquil as St John.

We provide everything to make your stay pleasant. We are stocked with linens and towels in the bath, beach towels, beach chairs and coolers. We also provide FREE wifi and FREE telephone service to the States. If you do not have your own gear, there is also a dive shop right beside the condos that rents gear. Paddleboards and kayaks can also be rented.

If this is your first tip to our island, please let us know and we will send you our recommendations for restaurants and beaches. Our manager will also share recommendations.

While studios at Grande Bay do not have assigned parking spaces, our on-island manager makes every effort to accommodate you with off-street parking. Several car-rental agencies also allow overnight parking as a backup.

And did I mention ROMANCE. This studio is ideal for that little get away that you both need to bring back that spark that our busy lives leave behind. You will find no more romantic place on Earth than St John. Its pristine beaches and gourmet restaurants provide the perfect location for romance, regardless of what honeymoon or special event you are celebrating.

Enjoyed our stay at the Grande Bay Resort
Enjoyed our stay at the property, I gave 4 stars for cleanliness because there was a spot on the sheet, maybe a stain, and sand in the washer, just some minor things. Not trying to be nitpicky, But had to explain why 4 stars for cleanliness. Overall the place was clean. We would definitely choose to stay at Grande Bay Resort again.

Perfect Location
The location of Grande Bay is perfect. You can walk to everything in Cruz Bay. The unit itself was clean and was perfect for my husband and me. There were a few hiccups with our stay but wouldn't deter me from booking again. Our key stopped working a day early and they had to re-activate it and they could only find us parking on the day we were leaving, which was not helpful. Next time I would book a one bedroom that is guaranteed parking.

Perfect location, very comfortable!
Close to downtown Cruz Bay, Grande Bay is great from a proximity and comfort point of view. We only were on STJ for three day so didn’t get a vehicle, this unit made our stay much more enjoyable. Would stay again for sure!
