Calabash Cottages - St. John
Coral Bay, St. John U.S. Virgin Islands: charming private cottages each w/ lovely furnishings, open-air hot tub, tropical gardens, breathtaking view. Welcome to Windwardside, an elegant retreat with lovely furnishings, a beautiful view and lush tropical gardens. This traditional West Indian style home consists of multiple buildings with a large central courtyard.
|
More Info:
The mainhouse consists of two buildings: the first is a detached bedroom / bathroom with a veranda that looks over the courtyard, gardens and sea; the second is the "great house". The great house is entered though a roomy screened-in porch which holds a beautifully furnished dining room and a cushioned window seating area. There is a full kitchen and living room (with sofa bed), an adjoining bath, plus an inviting covered porch overlooking the sea. Larger groups can rent Windwardside guest cottage as an additional bedroom.
Windwardside was created to meet the desire to travel in groups with friends and loved ones yet still maintain a sense of privacy while doing so. This focus on privacy also makes it a wonderful retreat for couples. The whole complex - the Great House (master bedroom, pullout bed in living room, two baths) and the guesthouse (one bedroom, one bath) can be rented as one by larger groups. Smaller groups or couples can choose from either the main house or the guest house. When rented individually privacy is assured by the orientation of the buildings and the heavy plantings screening them from one another.
Nearby Attractions:
Location: Coral Bay, St. John, U.S. Virgin Islands. Windwardside is located in quiet seclusion with mesmerizing views of Coral Bay, nearby islands and the Caribbean Sea. The house is situated two thirds of a mile up a little used road in Coral Bay. Surrounded by tropical plantings and marvelous vistas, you are still just a short drive to a cool splash in Salt Pond Bay or other equally inviting white sand beaches. Restaurants, shops and watersports are all available within two miles in Coral Bay. The main town on the island, Cruz Bay, is located 8 miles away. The airport is in St. Thomas which is reached via a twenty minute ferry ride. (Ferries leave every hour on the hour and cost $3 each way)
Amenities:
The Master Bedroom and Bathroom are located in a separate building above the courtyard. It is furnished with a queen sized four poster mahogany bed made on St. John and has a small cushioned seating area. There is a full bath with a charming shower garden: totally private but open to the sky. A veranda which extends over the courtyard and looks out to the sea is the perfect place to enjoy a morning cup of coffee while watching the birds flit about the garden.
The brick courtyard and the covered porch are surrounded by lush tropical gardens including banana and papaya trees and a profusion of flowers. The teak dining table in the courtyard seats six and is shaded by a large market umbrella for leisurely lunches al fresco. A large hot tub also holds six and has a peaceful view of Coral Bay. For more intimate gatherings, the covered porch is beautifully furnished with teak plantation chairs and wicker.

Caribbean Travel Tip
Travel Insurance
Travel insurance is the best way to protect yourself against financial loss. The most useful plan is a comprehensive policy that includes coverage for trip cancellation and interruption, default, trip delay, and medical expenses (with a waiver for preexisting conditions).
Without insurance, you will lose all or most of your money if you cancel your trip or have to cut it short, regardless of the reason. Default insurance covers you if your tour operator, airline, or cruise line goes out of business. Trip-delay covers unforeseen expenses that you may incur due to bad weather or mechanical delays. Study the fine print when comparing policies.
For overseas travel, one of the most important components of travel insurance is its medical coverage. Supplemental health insurance will pick up the cost of your medical bills should you get sick or injured while traveling.
U.S. residents should note that Medicare generally does not cover health-care costs outside the United States, nor do many privately issued policies.
Residents of the United Kingdom can buy an annual travel-insurance policy valid for most vacations taken during the year in which the coverage is purchased.
If you are pregnant or have a pre-existing condition, make sure you're covered.
Always buy travel insurance directly from an insurance company or agent; if you buy it from a cruise line, airline, or tour operator that goes out of business, you probably will not be covered for the agency or operator's default, a major risk. Before you make any purchase, review your existing health and home-owner's policies to find out whether they cover expenses incurred while traveling.
