About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Oceanfront - A perfect couple's only romantic getaway.
YOUR GUEST SUITE: Le Jardin
We are Rendezvous by the Sea - A perfect couple's only romantic getaway. We have two separate guest rooms with their own private entrances and patio areas. They are in a separate building away from the main villa where the owners and hosts live. To distinguish the two separate guests’ rooms from each other we have named them La Mer and Le Jardin. La Mer is the top guest room, and Le Jardin is the bottom guest room. They can be rented together or separately. It is an ideal romantic getaway for couples because of the quiet, serenity and beauty of this place.
Each guest room has their own private entrance and patio area, en-suite bathroom, whisper-quiet split air conditioner, recently upgraded and decorated with new bedroom furniture, linens, and towels. Each patio has built in bench seating, dining bistro table, and chairs for two.
Please note that the water at Rendezvous by the Sea is collected from rainwater that is treated with a dual filtration system then ultra violet light for maximum purification. Unlike most rentals, our water is perfectly safe to drink.
BEDROOM:
The guest rooms face out over the bay with an unrestricted panoramic views of the ocean and St. John. The view is amazing! Both have a whisper-quiet split air conditioner, or, for those who prefer a more natural experience, the room has 2 sliding glass doors with screens, and a ceiling fan. It is furnished with a new king size bed with a deluxe pillow top mattress and super soft 680 thread count Pima cotton sheets and 4 deluxe soft king size hypoallergenic down pillows.
We are oceanfront so it is easy to fall asleep listening to the gentle sounds of the waves below and for those who like to sleep late, your guest room is equipped with light reducing curtains.
The guest room is equipped with a mini fridge, microwave, Keurig coffee maker with a selection of coffees and teas, wine glasses and opener, Brita water pitcher with filter and water glasses, plates and bowls, forks, knives and spoons for 2, linen napkins, cutting board with sharp knife, kitchen towel, and paper towels/sponge/dish liquid. We also provide a yoga mat should you like to practice during your stay.
BATHROOM:
The spacious bathroom has a large walk-in shower. Complimentary Shikai Natural shampoo, conditioner and body wash are provided as are 4 sets of ultra-soft bath towels, hand towels and wash cloths.
MEDIA:
There is a wall-mounted 34” flat screen HD TV with a Roku player. Roku player will let you stream from your own Netflix, Amazon and Hulu account. High-speed wifi provided at no additional charge.
DECK:
Your private porch is cool and breezy and furnished with large, luxuriously cushioned bench seating for you to relax and enjoy the sounds and view of the ocean and the waves. For your outdoor dining pleasure, a bar height bistro table and chairs for 2.
POOL:
We have a deep octagon pool that is perfect for dipping and relaxing. It is a shared pool for all our guests. We have reclining lounge chairs with ottomans by the pool for your sunbathing pleasure. We also have a sitting area below the pool to relax, drink a cocktail and watch the ocean and its breathtaking surroundings.
BEACH/OUTDOOR GEAR:
For trips to St. John’s spectacular beaches, we provide beach chairs, cooler, two plush oversize beach towels, and snorkel gear.
Rendezvous by the Sea has its own rocky beach. We have a path from the villa to the beach below. The path is steep, so good walking sandals (not flip flops) are required. Enjoy Monte Bay where great snorkeling can be had when the waters are calm. Our rocky/coral beach is great for beachcombing. Please do not remove any shells or coral from our shore, but definitely take lots of pictures. Also on the beach you will find an orange tandem kayak belonging to Rendezvous by the Sea. Please let us know when you want to borrow it and we will provide you with paddles and life vests. Depending on the wind and current, we recommend only kayaking in our bay and on a calm day it is a 30 minute kayak over to Klein Bay Beach.
HOUSE RULES & NOTES FOR RENDEZVOUS BY THE SEA
- We are a no smoking villa. .
- Check–In is 3:00 pm and Check-Out is 10:00 am.
- Please help us conserve water! Everyone on St. John gets their water from rainfall collected from the roof in large tanks under the house so we ask that you be conservative with your water usage. Our water, unlike most other rentals, is treated by dual filtration and ultra violet light to kill any bacteria and is perfectly safe to drink.
- Please conserve electricity! Electricity in the Virgin Islands is several times what it costs in the States. Please be mindful of electricity use: turn off all lights, fans, fountains and A/C when not in the studio. Your conservation allows us to offer you such reasonable rates.
- In the event of a power outage, please do not use any water (flushing the toilet, taking a shower) until the power comes back on. We do have a generator at the villa and we will turn it on if needed.
- Please do not leave any food out in the open either on the deck or in the guest room. Place all open, non-refrigerated items in the ziplock bags provided and any refrigerated items in your fridge.
- We provide you with a covered trash bin. Please tie up your trash bags provided and discard them daily.
- Please hose off all beach and sandy gear. Sand is a very precious natural resource and should be left on the beach. There is a hose provided for your use to wash your beach chairs, feet and any sandy gear.
- We provide 2 large plush beach towels. Do not take the bath towels to the beach.
- We urge you to make use of the St. John guide books provided, but please do not take them out onto the beach or on the water with you.
- ABSOLUTELY nothing in toilet but toilet paper. No feminine hygiene products or wet wipes or any other paper items or foreign objects. There are no municipal sewage systems here on St. John to flush into. Instead every home has a self contained sewage treatment system. These systems are eco friendly and very sensitive and do not tolerate anything but toilet paper or they will malfunction and back up. Trust us, not something you ever want to experience.
- ABSOLUTELY nothing down the bathroom sink as well. Same system as above.
-While you will enjoy total privacy on your own deck your hosts also live on the premises so we ask that you be considerate and keep the noise levels down. If you want to get wild and loud please visit one of St. John's nightspots.
The villa is air-conditioned and features a balcony and space to spread out with a separate bedroom. The pillowtop bed provides a full night's sleep and the bathroom offers hair dryers. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a microwave, and a refrigerator.

The property and host were fantastic. The villa was clean and comfortable. This place was in a peaceful location and just a short drive to town. The commute to all the different beaches from the villa was no problem at all. We will be back for sure.

Perfect location
We couldn’t have asked for a better location. The view from the patio is beautiful and relaxing. The drive from Cruz bay to the location is short yet far enough that you can get away from it all and leave your worries behind. The room is very nice, clean and quiet. Caron and Dave are great and we can’t say enough good things around their entire property and location. It’s obvious the hard work they put into this place to make it what it is. We will be back for sure! Loved it!

We felt like we were in paradise! BEAUTIFUL location and premises! Sunrise breakfasts every morning that we made in the microwave. Mini-Fridge has a great freezer. Shower was very nice and the hosts were super friendly and even prompted us to try out a beach known by the locals-which was a highlight of our stay. NO CHICKENS on the site whi appreciated!

Wonderful Spot for Honeymoon
Picked this spot as our honeymoon location and we could not have picked a better place. The guest room was clean and welcoming and we were welcomed with a bottle of rum and fruit plate! Caron and Dave were great hosts and provided all necessary amenities and then some. We used the provided snorkeling gear, cooler and beach gear nearly every day. The pool was kept clean and was a perfect spot to wind down after long days at the beach. We could not recommend this place more to anybody that is looking for a romantic getaway!! Perfect spot, great location and great hosts!

Absolutely Perfect!
I cannot say enough about our experience with our stay and our hosts. Everything was even nicer than pictured and described. It was spotlessly clean and well maintained. The extra touches like the welcome drinks and snacks, beach chairs, and snorkel gear make it very obvious that the hosts care about their guests’ experiences. We can’t wait to stay with them again next year. Oh and the view….

Paradise
We absolutely loved our 5 nights at Rendevous by the Sea. The location was excellent, a 10 min drive to the center of Cruz Bay, but very quiet and peaceful, with a stunning view of the bay. Speaking of the bay, it was completely private, as the only access is people who live there. There is a path down to the water, and the snorkeling was Excellent. The room was set up perfectly with a large bedroom, bathroom, and beautiful outdoor space. The owners, Caron and Dave, were delightful and made sure that you felt at home. I cannot recommend this place more highly, and hope we have the opportunity to return in the future.

Idyllic stay in St. John
Enjoyed everything about this place. Beautiful views. A steep-ish hike down to a private, rocky beach where kayaks were available for our use. Private patio area had full sun, no shades . Fell asleep to the sound of crickets/tree frogs outside our door, and the sound of waves crashing on the beach below. Divine. Also, Caron was a great communicator, and was very helpful. Would definitely go back.
