About this apartment rental

Kick back & relax in this calm, beachy-style one-bedroom apartment. You'll fall in love with this unique space from the moment you park on-site and walk the lit stone pathway to your private entrance. Complete renovations were finished in 2022, including 2 a/c units, a full kitchen, living room, indoor & outdoor dining space, private bedroom, oversized shower w/rainfall showerhead, multiple water filtration + uv system, and more! Everyone will enjoy "Takin' it Breezy" & feel right at home.

Located an easy 8-minute drive from downtown, you and the homeowners will share a private home and U-shaped driveway with an allotment for one vehicle for you (a rental SUV/Jeep Wrangler is highly encouraged). There is a lit stone pathway around the side of the home, down a few wide stairs leading to the private lower level entrance.
Just past the door is your own private patio, with a char-broiled grill and a four-person dining table with an umbrella. Further down the large patio is a door with a washer/dryer combo for you to use during your visit, plus two sun chairs. Be sure to chill out with a beer and watch the sunset from the patio!
Walking inside, you will immediately notice all of the windows (with shades) and the open floor plan with tile throughout the apartment. The fully stocked kitchen is straight ahead, with a two-person dining table underneath a large window that overlooks the patio.

A 42" HD tv with WIFI access allows you to unwind and stream your favorite shows after a long day at the beach. Cabinet allows space for your laptop and more.

Guest access
You will be able to access the area/walkway to the lower level and the lower level unit as described above in "The space". The lower-level patio is also accessible, as well as the washer/dryer.
Anything on the upper level is not accessible to renters, including the locked barn doors & rock pathway past the washer/dryer, and the upstairs patio.

Other things to note
NOT SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN UNDER FIVE (5) as we are unfenced, close to a road, and the backyard is steep in certain areas. Take caution alongside the edges of the patio & backyard.

Native animals may be present outdoors at any time, like cows, chickens, roosters, iguanas, geckos, goats, donkeys, birds, feral dogs, feral cats, mongoose, etc. Take caution, we are known to have iguanas falling out of the trees.

The unit is all on one floor, but there are several outdoor stairs to get to the unit from the driveway, one stair to get inside, and one stair for the deck.

Exact location details will be given post-booking, along with our detailed, personally constructed guidebook.

Items MUST be returned (coolers, towels, kitchen items, etc.). We appreciate you taking care of the items we provide, so future guests can enjoy them as well.

This is a great place as it is a short drive from Cruz Bay and close to the hiking trails and beaches if you rent a car. It is very clean and comfortable and cute with tasteful beach decor. The owners live above the apartment and are thoughtful and kind. Their pride of ownership is evident as they brought the house back after the hurricane’s aftermath. We would rent here again if we return to St. John

The first thing that struck us was the cleanliness of the apartment. It was immaculate. The hosts also provided incredibly generous starter items, ranging from toilet paper (not the cheap kind!) to Prosecco (which paired very nicely with the stunning views off the back deck). The hosts were very accommodating, providing great information on local beaches and even access to snorkeling gear. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

We very much enjoyed our four night stay at Takin it Breezy! Very clean, everything we could possibly need, and beautiful deck to enjoy. It was a quick drive to Cruz Bay and very close to the Windmill Bar. Snorkel gear and chairs and beach towels were included and very much appreciated. Charlie was a great host and called us to help us find the property when it was rainy and dark. We would definitely stay here again!!!

Takin' It Breezy is a conveniently located, beautiful and immaculately clean property with a very kind, generous, and helpful host. They provided beach chairs, snorkel gear and everything we needed for the beach, as well as some beverages and snacks. We were also able to check in early. If we return to St. John, we will definitely stay here again.
