About this apartment rental

While the apartment was renovated after the two 5 categories Hurricanes that affected us on September 2017, the yard and some of the outside walls still need some painting, planting, and recovering the construction process. We now have a broader and easier driveway, a new staircase (although still a lot, around 40), and in the apartment: new flooring, new paint, new fixtures, appliances, and much more. Fortunately, we still have the breathtaking view loved by our guests as well. Are you looking for a peaceful, charming place to stay with a great view? Simplicity is the place for you. The apartment includes queen sized bed and a loft with a full mattress, a small kitchen, and a small bathroom. The Sliding glass doors in the bedroom/living room open to a deck where you can relax with views of turquoise waters, green hillsides, and the neighboring British Virgin Islands. Lounge on the sunny deck and gaze out at the view of the bay over morning coffee, barbeque and dine indoors or outdoors while enjoying the views and trade winds which keep the apartment breezy (There are ceiling fans and an extra floor fan also if needed), or kick back and rest after snorkeling and hiking at nearby VI National Park. If you are lucky enough to be here on the full moon, the silvery ocean is a sight you will not forget. Simplicity is located 10 minutes from white-sand beaches ideal for swimming or sunbathing with plenty of parking and hidden trails to explore, great restaurants, shopping, fishing, boating, and water sports. There are beaches, and a restaurant/bar within walking distance as well. With that said, simplicity is not a luxurious villa, it is a small rustic apartment targeted for the more down-to-earth traveler who wants to explore nature and simple living as there is no air-conditioning, laundry machine and my lively family lives upstairs. Coral Bay offers live music in the evenings at a variety of restaurants and bars where you can sip island drinks or feast. Many yoga and meditation classes are being provided within minutes of the property.
In addition to simplicity, the complex consists of the owner’s main house which is occupied by your host and her two lively sons.
The affordable pricing may let you stay longer, or treat yourself to a day sail or massage.

Perfectly good place, location, and description to start our trip in Love City. Shira was great to work with, communicated well and helped us so much. We loved sitting on the patio in the mornings and evenings Gingy the cat . Thanks so much Shira!

My wife and I stayed for a week. It was exactly as advertised and what we expected. It was clean, well equipped, quiet, and fun. We like the location especially in regards to Salt Pond beach. Is it the fanciest place on St John, no, but its nice and we spend most of our days on the beach. We think it's a nice match to the vibe we love about St. John.
