About this property

Romantic Villa

“Pine Cone Drive” is a beautifully cozy and comfortable West Indies style home located in quiet Skytop, Fish Bay St John. The six very large concrete Pine Cones that sit on the right side of the driveway inspired the house name. The house offers a very airy & open view to our majestic mountains and lowly valley. It also provides an average ocean view on the west side. One can sit in the covered deck and just enjoy the boats pass by. Occasionally, even a cruise ship can be seen. The house has a full kitchen, living and indoor dining area, open dining at the covered deck and full laundry. For the BBQ Master enthusiast, take command of the BBQ coop at the front yard.
There are two air conditioned bedrooms; each has its own bathroom. The master bedroom is very airy. It has several windows and a door that allows the guest to step directly into the covered deck and enjoy the natural environment. The bathroom is wonderful with sliding glass shower doors that sits on nicely crafted island style stonework. Guests have the choice of lining their outfits in either an armoire or a built in closet. The second bedroom is smaller but just as cozy, with its own sliding glass shower doors and island stonework. Each bedroom also has a fan and individual lamps for reading.
Kitchen utensils and appliances are provided. Bedroom linen, shower and beach towels are provided. Small coolers and beach chairs are provided. Guests may soak away all their worries as they relax in the beautiful 6 person hot tub; or just sun bathe on the lounge chairs at the hot tub deck as they sip a cold ice tea. You will be visited by several birds as you enjoy the view of the majestic mountain range.

Fish Bay is a very quiet neighborhood that has an active association, which enforces its rules and regulations. Peace of mind and relaxation is a trademark of this neighborhood.

About the area

St. John

Located in St. John, this guesthouse is in the mountains. While the natural beauty of Virgin Islands National Park and Honeymoon Beach can be enjoyed by anyone, those looking for an activity can check out Tortola Cruise Ship Port. Kayaking and snorkeling offer great chances to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with hiking and horse riding nearby.

Disappointing Hosts and Property
I would classify this as an extremely budget lodging with hosts that cannot afford to keep it up. There were some broken window panes and screens that had fallen out. There was no door on the master bathroom, so no privacy. The owners locked the other bedroom and bathroom since there were only 2 people in the lodging. There were some security cameras on the outside of the house that faced into the indoor living spaces. The promised beach and snorkel gear was either falling apart and unusable or covered in sand and dirt with debris on the mouthpieces from previous guests. Only the bedroom is climate controlled, so the rest of the house was extremely hot even in February. The house was also filled with bugs because of the broken window pane and failing window screens. Several of the dishes were cracked or broken, and the kitchen supplies were old or lacking. Cooking was extremely difficult and the lack of a dishwasher and cleaning supplies made any kitchen work very laborious. The hosts will charge you if you leave any dirty dishes behind or don't take out the trash even though they don't provide anywhere to dispose of it. I would avoid unless it's your only option and you plan to eat out most meals.

Great experience and stay
The views were amazing and the house was very comfortable. We appreciated the owner's quick communication, water jug, and setting up/decorating a Christmas tree for the holidays. All the comforts of home in a tropical paradise. Thank you!

Great house in the hills.
Very nice people to rent from. The house seems to only be used for rentals. Great view from the back porch. Having your morning coffee here, really puts you in a great place to start your day. Coming back and watching the sun go down over the hills will make your day complete. Plenty of space in the house. They have coolers and beach towels, toys, snorkel gear, chairs and more to use during your stay. I recommend renting a jeep for this house. It will be cheaper than trying to find taxis. It is far from town and built on a large hill. Don't turn the hot tub up past 98. I don't think the thermostat is right on it. I would book this place again and again. Enjoy...

About the host

Hosted by Catherine Stephen

Host profile image
My husband and I have lived on St John for approximately 30 years. We have one young son.
We love St John because it is very quiet and very natural due to the National Park. We also enjoy the crystal clear waters that surround the island. I am a Certified Residential Appraiser by profession and my husband works at Caneel Bay Resort. We both love people regardless of what race, religious belief or nationality. Our family enjoys meeting people because it is a chance to learn something new about different cultures. We are both Christian who love God.

Why they chose this property

We choose to buy in Fish Bay because it is a very clean, quiet and an uplift neighborhood. Also, because of the association that controls what can and cannot be done there. It helps up keep the neighborhood. Fish Bay is away from the main town area and the public roads. As a result, there is not as much traffic and noise that you may find in some other neighborhoods.

What makes this property unique

Some of the unique benefits of staying at Pine Cone Drive are Peace of mind, quietness and relaxation. It offers a chance to enjoy a combination of beautiful mountains and water view at the same time. Those who love nature can enjoy the natural surroundings that nature offers. The house is also very clean and the environment is inviting. For the hiking enthusiast, there is a hiking trail just a few yards from the house.
