Vacation Rental Cottage
on St. John, USVI

Nestled at the end of a small cul-de-sac and surrounded by tropical flowers and banyan trees, INNSTEAD is waiting for you.

This cottage with kitchen, bath, bedroom and front living room, has a large covered balcony that looks out across Pillsbury Sound to the island of St Thomas and beyond. The view is beautiful with other Caribbean islands receding into the distance. After a day at the beach or shopping, it is an Innstead tradition to gather on the balcony in the late afternoon, glass in hand, and watch the sun set – the show is always different, always spectacular.

Sunsets are followed by the song of the coqui and other tiny tree frogs, who own the night and continue their serenade long after you have fallen asleep.

The house has ceiling fans in every room, including two on the front balcony, that further circulate the breezes. The bedroom has air conditioning. The air conditioned bedroom suite on the first level has a queen size bed and an adjoining bathroom. The second air conditioned bedroom suite is on the lower level which is reached by a lighted outside garden path. This studio apartment has its own deck, an adjoining bathroom, a king size bed (or 2 twins), table and chairs, refrigerator and tiled coffee counter. The whole room has been newly energized with fresh paint and a new white tiled floor. The laundry is in an el off this room. It is a great arrangement for spillover family or a second couple.

The galley kitchen has been expanded with a new counter and storage work area. It has a new gas stove, two new refrigerators, dish washer, microwave, toaster oven and all the usual smaller appliances. The kitchen is fully appointed.

The living room with its new sofa and end table is more spacious and is equipped with cable TV, a DVD player and a docking station. The house has broadband internet service with WIFI access.
