The location of the home is perfect, we were able to easily commute to some of the best restaurants nearby and be back in no time. The 1BR/1BA cottage had everything we needed upon arrival.. it was very well kept. It really helped us out that beach chairs, snorkel gear, etc was right there waiting for us to use daily. The view from the pool is breath taking.. photos don’t do it justice. The owner was extremely nice and accommodating. We wouldn’t hesitate to book here again.. this place is truly such a gem. Thank you James family! ##### Keri S.

The check-in process was seamless, and the owner was incredibly responsive and helpful. He even met us at the Jeep rental and personally guided us to the property, which was a nice touch. We really appreciated the beach chairs, cooler, and towels that were provided—they made our beach days so much easier.To be honest, we spent most of our time either at the beach or in town, so we were really only at the property to sleep. The first night, we noticed some mosquitos, but that’s to be expected in the tropics. Overall, a great experience, and we’d stay here again! ##### Sean L.

We could look out on the bay from our living room as well as the pool area upstairs. It was a great place to have coffee in the morning or a glass of wine in the evening. The location was also optimal. It was just a few minutes from Cruz Bay with its restaurants and shops, but away from the noise and congestion. The host is very responsive and answered the couple of questions we had within minutes. This is our second time staying here and we would stay again. ##### Shelly W.

James was a great host. The place was beautiful and clean. We had everything we needed. The view is absolutely gorgeous and in the perfect spot to explore the whole island. It is also located close to Cruz Bay! James also met us at the dock when we got there. We have stayed at other places on the island. This one was our favorite and we will be back!💜 ##### Jessica T. Stayed 8 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carlo G. 5 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect Spot! Our stay at James’ house was nothing short of perfect. He met us at the car rental place and we followed him back to the house (driving is fine, but takes some getting used to). He showed us around and that was it! The house is great for people wanting to explore St John or just relax. The porch had a nice breeze most of the day and the pool was refreshing. Very quiet and private. Pro tip: be prepared for steep roads and hairpin turns. Just take it slow and you’ll be ok. 10/10 would rent again!! ##### Carlo G. Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Andy B. 5 Mar 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Rendezvous Cottage I will start out by saying that St. John is incredible place and if you're trying to decide between St. John and other islands, this is the place to go. The cottage was fine. It needs some TLC. I think a new coat of paint and fixing the screens on the porch would go a long way. The TV speaker seemed to be blown so we didn't really use it. I definitely would look for something bigger if you have more than 2 people. This was probably my fault but I didn't realize the cottage was downstairs from the pool area so we never used it but the views are amazing up there. Everything with the check-in and out was fantastic. Stacy filled in for James and was great. You definitely need a car. Overall we had a great vacation and enjoyed our time. ##### Andy B. Stayed 7 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### LEONA b. 18 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### perfect for us This rental was a perfect fit for us. We love the indoor/outdoor nature of the way its designed and the added comfort of a pool upstairs. We loved the sounds of birds, tree frogs and roosters. Did not use the AC in the bedroom every night but was glad it was there when we wanted it. Only regret was not wearing insect repellent. The screens are efficient, but this is, after all St. John. In fact, everything about this rental is so "st john" --thats why we love it. James is an excellent host and was very helpful when our flight was delayed and the car rental closed before we arrived. He treated us to drinks and gave us a ride back to town when the car rental agency opened in the morning. Great Stay!! ##### LEONA b. Stayed 7 nights in May 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Randy F. 14 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Charming & Affordable This one bedroom worked out great for the two of us. It's a charming place with a great view. James is very accommodating, meeting us the Cruz Bay ferry dock to lead us to the place, which isn't easy to find in the dark. Rental vehicle is needed as it's not close to taxi traffic and roads are not walkable. Short 7-8 min drive to heart of Cruz Bay. It's a bit tired but has all the amenities needed, including full size washer/dryer, beach chairs, big towels and cooler. The king bed is very comfy. We 'lived' on the huge screened porch, with table and small TV. A/C available but we didn't use, the early Feb breezes and shade kept it comfortable. Shared pool deck level is super nice, with spa, rope hammock, and nice lounge chairs, and an even better view as its above the unit. There are steps to navigate. It's the tropics on USVI, so wild roosters with their early morning noise and insects are part of the scene, and the place is not hermetically sealed for the latter. ##### Randy F. Stayed 5 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### rhoda h. 1 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### 15th Anniversary Trip This place was wonderful with a stunning view! We spent 5 nights here to celebrate our 15th anniversary. James met us at the ferry and guided us to the house and showed us around. The sunsets were spectacular with the gorgeous view! The house was unique- I love all the arched doorways and windows with wood shutters and the round stained glass window. The kitchen was well stocked. We cooked/grilled a lot the first 3 days. Having a big refrigerator was nice! The living/dining room is a screened in room. We watched a big iguana outside in a tree for awhile. It got a little warm during the afternoon/sunset but St. John is always warm.🙂 We didn't use the hot tub since it was warm. We didn't use the pool either since we were usually worn out from swimming at the beaches. There were coolers,beach towels,chairs and floats there which was so nice for our beach excursions. Having a way to do laundry was nice! The bathroom$ was also stocked well with towels. There are steps going into the house,up top to the pool/deck and inside going to the bathroom/laundry rooms. So if you're elderly,this may not be the place for you. There were chickens,iguanas and hermit crabs around to add to the island feel. The electricity went off a few times which is not the owner's fault, but be aware that it happens frequently on the island. We'd definitely stay again! ##### rhoda h.

My husband and I stayed in the one bedroom, one bath unit. It is an excellent value for the price considering you get an ocean view, a fantastic swimming pool and a clothes washer and dryer. This is a beautiful rustic place to stay that is private, yet a short drive to Cruz Bay. There are only three units, and one of those is the owner, so the pool is never crowded and there are lots of chairs. We rented a Jeep from a place on St. John, and the cottage owner, James, met us there to show us the way to his place because Google maps is not accurate. It was nice to follow someone for our first time driving on the left-hand side of the road! We visited in June and there were many flowering tropical plants on the property. There is an outdoor grill, a gas stove, flashlights, batteries, and candles to keep you covered in case of a power outage. If you stay during the humid months of summer, you will probably use the air conditioner while you are at the cottage. The air conditioner is strong enough to make the bedroom as cold as you want, while also cooling the kitchen area and brings down the humidity in the bathroom/ laundry room area. To use the air conditioner, you have to close the big arched wooden doors and window shutters, so then you do not have any view and have to turn on the lights, but you can sit on the screened-in porch or up at the pool for the view. The cottage really only has room for two people to sleep in the air-conditioned area of the cottage. ##### Christine F.

It was close to town, but quiet (except for the rooster). We made breakfast every morning, enjoyed the sunsets from the terrace. It was not wicked fancy, but felt like home by the end of our trip. ##### Ingrid P.

Villa was cleaned at a high level by the housekeeper which is not always the case at other villas. View, pool and other amenities were also excellent. Overall, they know what they are doing and I would rent there again. ##### Neil C.

The views from the pool are gorgeous. The little cottage that my husband and I stayed in was perfect for us. It was quiet, had a stove and a grill to prepare meals, a beautiful screened in patio, a washer and dryer and access to the pool. The check in process was easy and quick. James' son met us at the car ferry and showed us the way so that was very nice. Communication with the owner was quick and responsive. We appreciated the beach chairs, umbrella and cooler for our day trips. Would definitely stay here again! ##### Deanna F.
