Welcome to Stay Salty, a thoughtfully designed Caribbean retreat where ocean views, island breezes, and indoor-outdoor living come together for a relaxing St. John escape.

OVERVIEW
Tucked within the quiet five-unit Conch Villas community, Stay Salty is a spacious one-bedroom retreat that is ideal for two guests but can comfortably accommodate up to five with two sleeper sofas. The open floor plan flows naturally from the fully equipped kitchen into the living room and out to the expansive screened porch. Four oversized Brazilian hardwood double doors open wide to blur the line between indoors and out, filing the home with natural light, tropical breezes, and sweeping ocean views. It's the feature guests remember long after they've returned home.
LIVING ROOM
After a day exploring St. John, the inviting living room is the perfect place to relax. Enjoy comfortable seating, high-speed Wi-Fi, and a smart TV with Roku Guest Mode, or simply open all four hardwood doors and let the island breeze become part of the room.

The thoughtfully equipped kitchen includes a four-burner stove, apartment-size oven, full refrigerator, microwave, blender, coffee maker and all the cookware and utensils you'll need. It's perfect to prepare everything from a quick breakfast before the beach to a fresh seafood dinner after a day of snorkeling.

THE STAY SALTY EXPERIENCE
Some of the best moments on St. John aren't found on an itinerary.

Perfect place to stay while visiting St. John! The hosts were very friendly, stayed in communication and made sure we had no problem getting to our villa. You have everything you need for a fun or relaxing beach day already there for you and can walk to Cruz bay where all the shops and restaurants are located if you didn’t want to drive, perfect location. Will definitely be back!
Stay Salty is a quaint villa within about 10 minutes from main Cruz Bay. They thought of everything to make our stay perfect. We are ready looking to go back next year!
It was a perfect place for our little vacation! It was close enough to walk to town and had a lovely porch that I spent most mornings reading on. Would definitely stay again!

Excellent communication from host. Nice view of the ocean. Stay Salty was a sweet option for comfortable accommodations.
Absolutely loved our stay! Location was perfect! Make sure you understand how to walk to town without walking the large hills. The view and openess of the fresh air was one of our favorites about the property. Perfect space for our family! Would definitely rent again.
My husband and I really enjoyed the villa. We have been coming to St. John for many years and this place has become one of our new favorite places to stay and will definitely return to it. It was very spacious and we absolutely loved the indoor/outdoor feel with keeping the doors open. Most times there was a constant breeze so we were able to leave them open most of our trip. The place had everything we needed to relax and enjoy our time there.
We rented this villa for a weeklong trip to celebrate a major anniversary. We found it comfortable, squeaky clean, well equipped and tastefully decorated. The size is perfect for a couple, though a family on a budget could use the pullouts in the living room and make it work. The screened wrap-around porch has a lovely view of an inlet and the surrounding mountains, with a bit of open ocean, and the pair of swings are a fun touch.The walk to town is reasonably easy, and there's a wooded footpath about a block from the rental, which leads to a small bird sanctuary and beach. By car, it's an easy trip through town to access the National Park sites, though the road out of the neighborhood is in extremely poor repair, so probably best for renters who can withstand a little jarring. Ability to climb stairs is also a must.The owner was very responsive when we contacted her with questions, and we would gladly rent from her again if we returned to St. John.
