Photos and Description of the Fish Bay vacation house rental
House, 2 Bedrooms, 2 Baths, (Sleeps 2-4)

“Pine Cone Drive” is a beautifully cozy and comfortable West Indies style home located in quiet Skytop, Fish Bay St John. The six very large concrete Pine Cones that sit on the right side of the driveway inspired the house name. The house offers a very airy & open view to our majestic mountains and lowly valley. It also provides an average ocean view on the west side. One can sit in the covered deck and just enjoy the boats pass by. Occasionally, even a cruise ship can be seen. The house has a full kitchen, living and indoor dining area, open dining at the covered deck and full laundry. For the BBQ Master enthusiast, take command of the BBQ coop at the front yard.

There are two air conditioned bedrooms; each has its own bathroom. The master bedroom is very airy. It has several windows and a door that allows the guest to step directly into the covered deck and enjoy the natural environment. The bathroom is wonderful with sliding glass shower doors that sits on nicely crafted island style stonework. Guests have the choice of lining their outfits in either an armoire or a built in closet. The second bedroom is smaller but just as cozy, with its own sliding glass shower doors and island stonework. Each bedroom also has a fan and individual lamps for reading.

Kitchen utensils and appliances are provided. Bedroom linen, shower and beach towels are provided. Small coolers and beach chairs are provided. Guests may soak away all their worries as they relax in the beautiful 6 person hot tub; or just sun bathe on the lounge chairs at the hot tub deck as they sip a cold ice tea. You will be visited by several birds as you enjoy the view of the majestic mountain range.

Fish Bay is a very quiet neighborhood that has an active association, which enforces its rules and regulations. Peace of mind and relaxation is a trademark of this neighborhood.

About The Owner

My husband and I have lived on St John for approximately 30 years. We have one young son.

We love St John because it is very quiet and very natural due to the National Park. We also enjoy the crystal clear waters that surround the island. I am a Certified Residential Appraiser by profession and my husband works at Caneel Bay Resort. We both love people regardless of what race, religious belief or nationality. Our family enjoys meeting people because it is a chance to learn something new about different cultures. We are both Christian who love God.

The Owner purchased this house in 2006
Why The Owner chose Fish Bay

We choose to buy in Fish Bay because it is a very clean, quiet and an uplift neighborhood. Also, because of the association that controls what can and cannot be done there. It helps up keep the neighborhood. Fish Bay is away from the main town area and the public roads. As a result, there is not as much traffic and noise that you may find in some other neighborhoods.

What makes this house unique

Some of the unique benefits of staying at Pine Cone Drive are Peace of mind, quietness and relaxation. It offers a chance to enjoy a combination of beautiful mountains and water view at the same time. Those who love nature can enjoy the natural surroundings that nature offers. The house is also very clean and the environment is inviting. For the hiking enthusiast, there is a hiking trail just a few yards from the house.

Relaxing Get-Away!

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: Apr 11, 2013
  • Stayed: Mar 2013
My husband and I spent a wonderful week at Pine Cone Drive - our first vacation without our young children in over 5 years - and it did not disappoint. The hospitality of Catherine and Leo and the facility itself exceed every expectation. The hosts provided us with personal recommendations for hiking trails, restaurants and local attractions. The well-decorated house itself has a great location with a beautiful view from the deck outside. It was quick to get to either side of the island. We spent a great deal of time just sitting on the deck and enjoying the view of the stars from the hot tub at night. The well-stocked kitchen allowed us to spend several relaxing nights at "home" eating our home-cooked dinner on the deck. The bedrooms were extremely comfortable, with both ceiling fans and air-conditioning for the warm nights. Fluffy beach towels, beach chairs, and a cooler made our frequent trips to the beach enjoyable and convenient. We're definitely looking forward to the next opportunity to get-away at Pine Cone Drive!!

Owner's Response: Hi Brian & Ann,
Just want to thank you both for the review. I am very pleased that you enjoyed your time at PCD and St John. You both have very demanding jobs, (military & mom) and deserved to have a time to relax and take in nature best. I look forward to hosting you both again at PCD.

Very nice and practical villa

We visited St John more than a dozen times, we stayed at numerous villas. Pine Cone Drive villa is located in Fish Bay, so it's extra ~ 7 minutes drive from Chocolate Hole, but you will save abot $700 per week for a similar villa. It is nicely equipped (everything is clean, I never saw so many rugs in any other St John's villa), in a breezy location (no need for AC), has an ocean view from the deck. Location is safe. Plenty of parking space. If you are not looking for a granit counter-tops, 12 ft ceilings, grand entrance, but just a nice, clean an secluded place to stay in Fish Bay: this is the place.

A true gem in St. John

My husband and I have been visiting St. John annually (sometimes twice a year) for the past decade. We have stayed in many villas all over the island. Pine Cone is among the top 2 best villas we have EVERY stayed in. The location of Fish Bay is wonderfully private and quiet with just a short (and beautiful) drive into Cruz Bay. The villa itself is one of the cleanest and most well kept I have ever seen. Many of the furnishings and appliances are new and you have all the amenities of home. The view is absolutely serene and beautiful of the water and the rolling hills. We will absolutely be return visitors!

Owner's Response: Thank you very much Rebecca for these kind words about PCD because we know that there are many other very nice villas on St. John. Our ultimate desire is to make everyone of our guest feel welcome and also feel that they are at home away from home. My husband and I would be honored to have you both return to our villa, Pine Cone Drive.

Our time at Pine Cone Drive was wonderful. Absolutely everything one could need; chairs, hot tub, beautiful deck space, high speed internet, flat screen televisions. An extremely comfortable and inviting place to return to at the end of a long day of snorkeling. We will be coming back for sure!

A perfect location to explore the island!

We had an amazing week at Pine Cone Drive! Our flight was late, but Catherine was waiting at the car ferry to guide us to the villa. She even took us to the grocery store since it was late. Thank goodness she was there to meet us, because there would be no way we would have managed to find the home in the dark!! Which it turned out we loved the most about the villa. After a day of exploring, hiking, snorkeling and eating we drove the windy roads up to the villa. So nice and private with a beautiful view and an awesome hot tub to ease those little used muscles! The villa has 2 bedrooms with bathrooms and a beautiful living room. The kitchen was fully stocked so cooking in the evening was easy. The BBQ grill came in handy as well. The deck that wraps around the house offers wonderful space for eating, relaxing or sunbathing. The best part I think was that we didn't even use the air conditioning - the breezes from the ocean came right through the house - at night we would listen to the sounds of the island. Fish Bay is convenient to reaching the attractions of the North Shore, Cruz Bay and Coral Bay. We will definitely be returning to St. John again and hope that Pine Cone Drive is available!
