About this house rental
Imagine the Caribbean 50 years ago before chain hotels and condo developments when you could stroll to the beach or explore a relatively undeveloped island on golf cart. It exists today and it’s just a 10 minute passenger ferry ride from bustling Saint Thomas. Now picture yourself heading down to Honeymoon Beach (just a 5 minute walk from the house) to chill under a palm. If you get restless, there is everything from snorkeling to pickle ball to volleyball anchored by the famous “Dingy’s Beach Bar.” You may even catch a band Sunday afternoon. Rent a golf cart and head to Heidi’s on the hill top for amazing fish tacos. Explore other beaches on the island, an abandoned fort with tunnels and turrets then pick up some necessity groceries at WI mart and shop a cute art shop with a kid friendly icy/drink stand. Need to return to reality - explore Saint Thomas by day and retreat back to our quiet 500 acre island at night. This home is “old school” and is part of a 4 unit semi-attached compound and should not be considered a luxury accommodation. We have been rehabilitating the property for a year with many projects in the works and have made it comfortable for our family but it may not meet your vacation standards. Keep in mind the air conditioning is only in the bedrooms.
Amenities at Expansive Water Island Home with phenomenal views & 5 minute walk to the Beach!

Wonderful Accommodations and views of Honeymoon Beach during our early morning coffee or evening glass of wine. Beach and Dinghy's only a 3-4 minute walk down the hill. Beautifully appointed Chef's kitchen with spacious bar/counter tops, and loads of cabinet space. Hubby cooked majority of meals and kitchen was such a welcome treat! The kitchen is open to the livingroom, dining room, and enclosed porch/sitting room. There is an outside screened porch for sitting and a washing macine to the far side of the screened porch. Lots of open space for family gatherings. There are two bedrooms with AC. The master bedroom was a great retreat at the end of our active, fun filled day. Loved the mattress! Also, first time sleeping beneath a real mosquetto net (a dream come true)!! Hubby enjoyed the 25 lb dumbbells, using them daily. Thanks for the beach chairs and the snorkel mask---Amazing experience swimming with the sea turtles in Honeymoon Bay! Suggestions:--Starlink Internet helpful, as once cruise ships arrive and dock in St Thomas, limited to no internet access--Loved the Thermocell. A supply of Thermocell propellant or Raid Flying Insect Spray helpful. --Loved our packed Britta filter to avoid purchase/carrying of water.George, thank you for offering your lovely home on VRBO! We had an incredible 12-day stay with life-long memories! We met many of Water Island's locals and greatly appreciate everyone's kinkindness!!! BLESSINGS! The Fishes!

Just a quick walk to the beach. Very nice home and good communication. Had someone contact us to get groceries before hand and able to coordinate ride with luggage from Crown. Great views!! Just read all info, owner provides everything you need to know. We just missed the bring bug spray info but were able to purchase from WI Mart. Tortoises, friendly neighbor cats and again excellent view!
