The property was excellent for my husband and myself. It had everything we needed for our 10 day stay. The view from this condo is perhaps the best view on the property. We enjoyed sitting on the balcony and watching the boat traffic in and out of Cruiz Bay and all the goings and comings of the Cruz Bay area. Walking distance to everything.

There was some confusion because the management of the building were sending me messages vs the owner of the unit. The building sent an auto message that someone was meeting us at pier and no one ever showed up. Any way the front desk staff were gracious and friendly. The until has a huge patio!! The interior is small for a PH. The unit is stocked with things you need. The sheets are Very soft and cool. It was clean and well decorated. Location was great, close to many businesses. We used a taxi once to go to a meeting point for a day trip. Quiet if there aren’t kids in the next unit. Great sunset viewing. You can walk around town, beware streets are hilly and not all have sidewalks. Overall we enjoyed our relaxing stay.

very convenient but small we were not able to sleep due to the noise of the concerts and bars. we had to leave a day early. the front desk was less than helpful. we were sent info from another company about checking in that was not accurate. also if you have mobility issues this is quite a lot of uphill climbs and stairs until you reach the elevator for the unit .

What a View

Love City Penthouse was a perfect stay for two people. The hostess was great and responded within minutes to our questions. The crew at the front desk were friendly and helpful as well. This was our first time to visit St John, and the location was really convenient to restaurants and other attractions. We especially enjoyed the beautiful view from the covered porch. We will definitely recommend this place to friends and family.

Location great, place was clean, kitchen, well stocked, and parking spot provided. Also beach chairs provided although they need to be replaced and also two coolers provided some things need to be fixed and upgraded for sure. Lighting above the bathroom sink is about as bright as a nightlight. Most plugs and light switches are loose and glitchy. And the beach chairs need to be replaced.

Response from VrboOwner on 2 Jan 2026
Morning Norman! Thank you so much for staying and for taking the time to write a review! It is through these reviews that we can stay on top of our property as well as improve it for our future guests! Since receiving this review, we have already replaced the beach chairs (since they are stored on the balcony, the air and salt breaks them down so quickly! They were new in October!) We also have our property manager and GB staff to go in and check out the outlets...we were unaware of any issues with them since we were there in September. In the future, never hesitate to reach out to me or our property manager during your stay, we are here for you and want nothing more than the serve you and ensure your vacation is up to your standards! Cheers Norman, and Happy New Year!!

We had a great stay at Grande Bay Resort. Our unit had everything we needed, was clean and in close proximity to everything we needed. Get a rental car so you can truly appreciate the beauty of the island.

About the host

Hosted by Pam Goggin

Host profile image
We are lovers of the Virgin Islands, St. John, being the nearest and dearest to our hearts. It has brought so much to us in the 25 + years we have been returning to the island. We are sure that St. John will bring as much to you as it has to us. Please never hesitate to get in touch with us for any questions you may have. Thank you in advance for the consideration!!

Why they chose this property

We bought this property to continue bringing ourselves, our children, family and friends to the island. We love the USVIs and BVIs....it has always felt like home to us! We cannot say enough about not only the beauty and serenity St. John oozes, but of the FUN that we have. The people are as beautiful as the views, and we rent our property with the motivation to bring you, your family and friends that same love and fun.

What makes this property unique

These units provide unobstructed views clear from power lines (lower building views can be obstructed by power lines) and panoramic views of both St. Thomas (not visible in the far right units in Grande Bay) and Cruz Bay. Our family loves spending time on the balcony, and we would argue it has one of the best views there is :)
