About this villa rental
Island stonewalls & a mature tropical garden make an enchanting home for two couples. Two king master bedroom suites are equipped with air conditioning, but the island breezes make them an unnecessary option year round. Nature is at your doorstep with the nearby salt pond provides a nesting haven for local birds.
An intimate & private hideaway for two or an economical home away from home for the family. Nestled in hillside gardens with blooming bougainvillea, hibiscus & orchids and lime trees, the island fauna beckons for exploration. You can hear the blue Caribbean Sea lap the shoreline from your deck overlooking Chocolate Hole. Come & stay in style & class economically just five minutes from the shops & restaurants of Cruz Bay.
Two separate suites each have a full bath and king bed with ample room to spread out & relax. The owner’s son – a day trader for a hedge fund based on St John & co-owner of the villa – resides in a separate one bedroom apartment with a separate entrance most of the year. He can offer you island insights and scuba tips or all the total privacy you may desire.
A spacious Great Room with a vaulted ceiling with large open doors open to a tranquil view of Chocolate Hole Bay. The cool, Caribbean trade winds sweep through the villa day & night. Additionally, every room is equipped with ceiling fans.
A modern kitchen with all the amenities and a comfortable bar overlook the Caribbean blue water and lend to a unique culinary experience. An Italian travertine stone slab dining table with a Schnell Studio weave light are situated next to the kitchen for indoor dining.
The Great Room & dining area open onto a wooden deck running the length of the villa providing an option for outdoor dining as well as additional living space. Mornings and early afternoon the deck offers bright sun while the afternoons are shady cooled as the trade winds come across the valley and the salt pond.
Steps lead to a short stroll to swimming & snorkeling at the Chocolate Hole Beach and a 5 – 10 minute drive to the spectacular National Park beaches.

This house was lovely - great location, beautiful interior. The outside space is the most special part of the house though. That is where we spent most of our time.

We had a wonderful trip to St. John which included a great stay at Ocean Garden. Donald Schnell and his family were excellent hosts and communicators. Their home is lovely, very clean, in a quiet neighborhood, surrounded by tropical gardens. We rented their Jeep which was needed while exploring the island. It was a pleasure meeting and working with the Schnell family. We will be back!
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Mar 2025
The house is very unique and is full of beautiful touches from the owner/artist. At a little over 500 a night, it was affordable, comparatively, and the location was great. Close to a grocery store and easy drive into town.The layout was nice for 2 couples with the two separate en suite bedrooms and the hosts were very responsive with great tips and a jeep rental before we arrived. We really enjoyed the large outdoor lanai area!The kitchen could use an upgrade, including the stove, which was very old and had a knob falling off. The bathroom in one bedroom could also use an upgrade and some repairs need to be done around the split unit.Took a long time to get hot water from the kitchen sink, and hot water in one bathroom didn’t last through two showers.There was some late night noise from the tenants downstairs.Generally we were happy with our stay and would rent again. Loved all the Magic Circles!
