About this apartment rental
Perched into the hill 150ft above Rendezvous Bay, our property has one of the best views on St. John despite being only a quick, easy 4 minute drive from Starfish in town.
6 King Beds, 2 Queen beds and a bunk bed (twin over full plus trundle), this makes it a total of beds for 18 in 5 bedrooms give our guests many sleeping options. Maximum occupancy is 10 adults plus 6 kids depending on age.
* 120 solar panels and 90kwh of backup batteries*
Flexible rates based on # of guests/bedrooms. Rent 2, 3, 4 or 5 bedrooms. Non-booked bedrooms will remain locked but empty, you will always be the only guests and have the 3500sqft pool and hot tub area to yourselves.
POOL AREA
Highlight of the property is a 5ft deep 15x30ft infinity pool, one of the largest private pools on St. John with one of the best pool views on St. John. There is a large hot tub build into the corner of the pool with a 3hp pump and 2 HP blower for bubbles.
The pool BBQ area with firepit, 2 fridges and ice maker is on the Western side of pool and under the living room of the main level. It is sheltered from the elements - you will be comfortably cool out of the sun and out of the wind. Even during strong thunderstorms where can rain sideways here you will stay dry (unlike some gazebos style sitting areas).
For cold nights or a late night swim, the gas firepit will keep you warm and cozy. There are large decks on both sides of the pool, the left hand side has a platform that can be used as daybed or for yoga, the right hand side is a expansive deck with 8 chaise lounges. It also features a covered wet bar/honor bar, blender and coffee maker. The pool is facing east, taking maximum advantage of view and trade winds. The sunrises are spectacular and you can catch a glimpse of the sunset from the Southern end of the deck.
Easy access, no steep narrow driveway, flat, easy parking. You will arrive at the property and park your car on the level of the pool. To get to the main entrance you have to walk up a few steps on a 40 degree incline over the lawn or a river rocks in concrete driveway. Not suitable for people with limited mobility. In return there are zero steps throughout the property and all bedrooms on main level are on the same level with interior connection.
No walking on stairways to get from a bedroom to the main level.
LIVING AREA
While the pool is brand new and designed for a vacation rental, the main level feels more like a large family home with very large (some over 400sqft) bedrooms and a full size, fully equipped kitchen with Mahogany cabinets and granite counters that goes beyond most vacation rentals (bean to cup espresso machine, Keurig, normal coffee maker, nespresso machine, hot dog toaster, sandwich maker, ninja blender, soda maker and lots of pots, pans and utensils). Our typical guests are multigenerational families or 2 families vacationing together. I would say we are less suited for 5 couples as there are no 5 equal master suites. Each bedroom has a very unique layout and design. The pool area is always a big hit with the kids, young and old.
The décor is modern and simple. There are no elaborate finishes like carved Mahagony bedposts, flowery bedskirts or fragile artisan pottery masterpieces. I return, there is less stuff to worry about that kids could break. They can run free and be as loud as they want.
The main level is overlooking the pool and has 3 patios: 37ft patio off the living room, a private 21ft patio for bedroom 4 as well as a 16x16ft deck off the back bathroom, so even when travelling in a large group you will find a quiet space to meditate or read a book. Families with young kids like the fact that the kids can’t escape to the pool via an open slider (a parent has to open the heavy front door), families with older kids enjoy privacy and peace on the large 37ft upstairs patio off the main living room while the kids have fun in the pool area. There is a second kitchenette with full size stove and fridge in the hallway to bedroom 3 and 4.
There is one bedroom and a large bathroom on the pool level, the bathroom has double shower and double vanity and can easily handle large groups coming back from beach wanting to swim, shower and use the hot tub.
There is always a good breeze blowing at hour property that keeps you cool and the mosquitos away. You can sit outside without being hot or eaten alive by mosquitos. 90-95% of the time the wind is nice to have, 5-10% of the time the wind is a little strong and you may hear it howling.
For the odd days with no wind we have state of the art inverter window A/C units in the bedroom for a good night’s sleep. The majority of our guests does not need A/C especially during the winter and spring and our pricing is based on occasional/night time use only. The property is all about indoor/outdoor living with the sliders open and a gentle breeze flowing through the house.
We can offer this property at a reasonable price as we the owners live on the same property with a separate entrance up the hill. We have our own pool and hot tub up there. Privacy is very important to us, we will not hear or see what is going on in the guest unit and you will normally not see us unless I am watering the plants in the front yard when you get back from beach. We can normally respond faster to issues and questions compared to villa management services that have many properties in their portfolio and a long drive to get to them. 3 indoor/outdoor cats live on property. They are not allowed inside the guest unit.

Solar & Back up power

We loved our stay at Rendesvous Breeze! The views from the pool area and deck are unbeatable. The pool and grilling area is amazing and was our favorite place to hang out after long days at the beach. Petra, the host, was very easy to communicate with and has everything and more that you could possibly need for a vacation at her lovely home. We would definitely stay there again.
4.8
We had an incredible week, and it was hard to leave. Petra was very communicative and answered any questions before and during our trip. We appreciate the thorough check-in and the time she took to explain everything. It is a nonissue that she and her husband live on the property; you don't hear or see them. It was great having them on the property, and so easy to contact with any questions. Yes, you have to walk around the house to the pool, which is again a nonissue! You will not even remember the walk once you see the pool and the view. The kitchen and the house are stocked with EVERYTHING you would need, and some things you didn't even know you needed. The beds are very comfortable; the home is very clean. We had 8 adults and 2 children, ages 8 & 12. We would HIGHLY recommend this property and can't wait to go again.
4.8
Petra is a saint and the property is beautiful. She did a great job showing us how everything works. Although her and her husband live on propert, we did not see or hear them once. Although we had a 1.5 year old who did great, I'm not sure it's the most convenient for little kids. Just our personal preference, but that being said it worked out great. We will be staying here again.
4.8
The house was amazing! Perfect location, we had everything we could possibly need for our stay. Petra was so helpful and thoughtful with anything we needed. The views are the best ever from the pool and the pool bar was spectacular. Amazing stay at an amazing property!
4.8
Views from the property were amazing. We received a thorough check in from the property manager. She met us at the market near the ferry which was great because navigating after dark was a challenge. Pool was a bit chilly but they had been having some rains that cooled it down…hot tub was very nice. Had to go outdoors and walk through yard/drive to get to pool, but a stairway from second floor (main living space) to pool is under construction. Bedrooms were nice with AC. Living room/kitchen were cooled by the sea breeze, which at times meant warm and humid. Lots of options for coffee…including very nice bean to cup machine. House is well appointed with beach gear (beach towels, chairs, coolers). Some kitchen equipment and pans are getting outdated, but we understand it is an island and expensive to update. Took some time to figure out the shower in one bathroom. Owner/manager lives on 3rd floor and very attentive to any needs.
4.8
We had an amazing time for a whole week in St John. We got to the resort later in the evening, 5 adults and 5 children, the oldest being 8 and the youngest 1, and the check in process which needed to happen, was nonetheless long and involved and we were crushed with fatigue and had a hard time managing that. Nonetheless we had a blast at a different beach every day followed by ages of swimming in the wonderful pool. The children slept extremely well, and so did the adults. We were comfortable though I would have liked to be able to shut my bedroom door which was off its bottom hinge. The porch in the evening time was exquisite, and the location of the home is stellar with its view and peacefulness. We were the noisiest party around! So for a party of 10, we were comfortable and well located and we had a blast of a time. Thanks much to the owners for providing such a wonderful place for us all to stay.
4.8
We were thrilled with Rendevous Breeze. Petra was so easy to work with from start to finish. The view is spectacular! We enjoyed the sunrises every morning from the balcony. The pool and hot tub were perfect for our family. The house is so well appointed. It really has everything you need, especially the kitchen and all of the beach gear. The location worked great. I can’t say enough. We can’t wait to come back.
4.8
Great views and Petra was super helpful especially when dealing with the power outages.
4.8
This house has a wonderful view and the outdoor pool/hot tub were amazing. The upper deck is perfect for sitting and enjoying coffee or a drink in the evening. Coffee maker was fun and kitchen had plenty of dishes and glasses etc.
The pool area is separate from the 2 upstairs bedrooms. There is a separate bedroom by the pool area but you have to walk around the outside of the house.
Petra was very friendly and helpful and a little quirky. The checkin process was lengthy and she was very concerned about how much water we used. The interior decor was IKEA style furniture. The house has some quarks

Great time and great home.
4.8
The views, the ease of getting to and from and the spaciousness was perfect for our group. We spent 2 weeks at Rendezvous Breeze with a beautiful mixture of family and friends.
The property is not extravagant although it serves the purpose for those looking to travel with a large group
The owners live on the 3rd/4th floor which you wouldn’t even know they were there. They were very attentive to any and all questions . The pool and hot tub were hits both weeks and a great hangout spot for entire group.
Morning coffee was had on the upper deck every morning as we awaited all the sunrises. As the day went on though, the deck was full sun until around 1:45-2pm.which was perfect because we usually packed up and headed out to the beach on the daily at that time.
The owners are super mindful of how they impact the earth and what kind of footprint they may or may not leave on it.
We love STJ and come back every year. We look forward to more adventures in the years to come

We will return

The poolside area is the highlight of this property. Absolutely stunning. We had four adults and 6 teenagers. The property easily accommodated us. The host is extremely kind and responsive.

Our family of 7 had a fabulous time in St. John and Rendezvous Breeze was just perfect for us. The views from the pool and balcony are stunning, especially the sunrise. Although we didn't occupied entire house, it was definitely a bonus to have this spacious house all to ourselves. We really enjoyed the pool/hot tub bar area. The kitchen is very well equipped and the bedrooms are roomy. We did a lot of cooking and baking. Petra was very responsive to our questions and needs. She's a great host.

this is a beautiful place and would stay again in heartbeat. Highly recommend!!!

We had a wonderful stay. You can’t beat the view and the breeze from the back patio and pool deck. The pool and hot tub were amazing.
Lots of pool and beach toys for kids and Petra has great information about what to do on the island.
Note there is no laundry at the property.
Highly recommend!

Fantastic home with awesome ocean view and amenities - we loved the outdoor are with infinity pool, hot tub and BBQ kitchen and the open bar concept - Petra is a wonderful host - we will stay at her home again coming back to St. John
4.8
Wow! We had 2 family groups (kids range from 13-15 years old) total of 8 people, and Petra's house fit the bill! Everyone had enough space including beds, and the views were amazing. This was our first trip to St. John and we will be back. Petra was extremely helpful with whatever request we had. She gave us a list of drivers since we didn't want to rent cars. Between Petra and our driver we were set. The house was very well equipped and she even had extras for our kids. Most of all, the pool. Each day we would take a day trip to one of the beaches (packed beach chairs and coolers all provided by Petra), then dinner in town, and home for evening pool time with the teens. Kids loved it and we loved it. We will be back.

Great Property for three families with teenagers - Communication with Petra was excellent. The view is incredible!

If you're not choosing the Rendezvous Breeze house, you're missing out on the best vacation destination in St. John, PERIOD. Petra is a ROCKSTAR of a host who will make sure your stay in St. John is the best experience. I appreciated her thorough check-in process and immediate support with anything we needed during our visit. The views from the pool deck were spectacular, and the layout allowed everyone to enjoy happiness in their own way. The house's location is convenient to all the fantastic stops in St. John. My friends and I will certainly return to this beautiful property and appreciate everything Petra did for us!

It was amazing.
4.8
We were a group of 4 adults. Found the property convenient, quiet, and comfortable. We were not bothered by the pool location (which you get to by leaving the front door and walking around to the rear of the house). 2 of us even used the showers down there and let our friends claim the bathroom in the house. It all worked well for us. The pool was a little cold during our stay in Feb, but we found it refreshing after a day at the beach or after a dip in the hot tub. Petra is an awesome host and helped us get snorkel gear for the duration of our trip. There are also pool noodles, paddle boards, beach chairs, towels, coolers, a stash of sunscreen, books and dvds, and other free amenities on the property. There is also an honor bar. :-)
Last, but not least, is the view from the balcony and the pool. It's fabulous and I just didn't want to leave!
4.8
We had a wonderful time. The house was perfect for our group. The view is absolutely amazing. Petra was really nice and very helpful giving us a tour of the house and what to do. It is highly recommended to have a four wheel drive vehicle, the roads are steep and curvy. We all absolutely recommend it! Thank you Petra for letting us stay in your wonderful house!

Petra was amazing . Very friendly and informative . The location is amazing . We enjoyed her place . You will not be disappointed

The house was perfect for what our group needed! Spectacular, breathtaking view! The house was spaced out so it made our group of 10 feel very comfortable. When you get the hang of the drive from cruz bay, it’s easy to find! Close to the windmill bar which was our favorite place for bingo and sunsets! Petra was very gracious and friendly and helped us with the ins and outs of the house!
4.8
We went with a large group and enjoyed every bit of our stay! Petra was an amazing host. The house had everything we could possibly need with an amazing view and very close to town. Couldn’t have asked for a better stay. Thank you Petra!

Paradise with a view.
This property has it all. The pool was amazing to come home to after a day on the beach. This house is great for larger groups. Multiple refrigerators making sharing a breeze. I would totally rent this house again.

My family and I LOVED the property, the rooms, and the views from this home. We would 100% return to this property if we were to visit St. John again. The only difficulty that I had with the property was related to the host. Petra is extremely communicative and provides a thorough explanation about everything that her property has to offer (which is a lot!), but she can come off as rude and inhospitable in the process. When I communicated an issue about needing another set of towels because one of the sets wasn't found in the place she told me they would be, she insisted that they had been there and that I needed to ask everyone in my family about whether they had taken them. She was argumentative rather than accommodating. It felt to me that her being "right" was more important than her being hospitable to her guests. After that interaction, I began reading other reviews on the website and noticed that every single review that included a criticism was met with a detailed response from her defending her point of view rather than an apology for the issues. Just be mindful of this as you are booking and are interacting with the host.

My family and I LOVED the property, the rooms, and the views from this home. We would 100% return to this property if we were to visit St. John again. The only difficulty that I had with the property was related to the host. Petra is extremely communicative and provides a thorough explanation about everything that her property has to offer (which is a lot!), but she can come off as rude and inhospitable in the process. When I communicated an issue about needing another set of towels because one of the sets wasn't found in the place she told me they would be, she insisted that they had been there and that I needed to ask everyone in my family about whether they had taken them. She was argumentative rather than accommodating. It felt to me that her being "right" was more important than her being hospitable to her guests.

Petra’s house was perfect for our family of 12 traveling to St. John. We had family members from 8 to 79 years old and everyone enjoyed it. You can’t beat the views and amenities and Petra was so helpful and accommodating. We can’t wait to go back!

We all had an absolutely wonderful stay. We knew it would be beautiful based on the pictures but in person it is literally jaw dropping to look out over rendezvous bay. I just can’t say enough good things about the property and how Petra “the owner” has everything you could ever possibly need and then some.. the amazing part is you don’t need to run the ac At All during the day since the winds tunnel through the whole home making it as cool as you could want. Petra was an excellent hostess and guided us through the property showing us what we needed to know and I couldn’t be more thankful. Just 5 stars all around. A most definite dream trip I will be daydreaming of at work for months now haha

Very luxurious place
This house is up on a hill with gorgeous views of the bay and the island and beautifully decorated inside and out. Beware that the island has a lot of speed bumps and steep roads with switchbacks. A low riding car will scrape the speed bumps.
