Gorgeous View, Beach Access, Swimming Pool, Kayaks, Quiet Privacy - the East End

Want to get away from it all? Spend some days at a retreat away from it all?The East End of St. John is that special place to do it!

Come enjoy what Long Bay Getaway Retreat has in store for you, your special someone, and your whole family!

This lovely cottage retreat is nestled on the quiet and uncrowded East End of St. John in the Privateer Bay community. We invite couples seeking a private, natural, relaxing location with space to stretch out, small families looking for a safe and wild home base with easy private beach access, or two couples (or small group of friends) looking to share the fun and the cost (deals for 7 day stays or monthly). This 2 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom cottage (+ fun outdoor shower) has everything you need to get lost in your vacation away from any busy-ness. Long Bay Getaway Retreat has everything for you: a nicely stocked kitchen, air conditioned bedrooms, comfortable furnishings, an intimate and colorfully night-lit private pool, fast internet, lovely native fruit trees and plants, abundant wildlife, and the unending peace you need to enjoy a planned or unplanned retreat. We even have an acoustic guitar to learn or play your favorite accompanying music! With few neighbors except the animals, the East End is yours for a private, quiet retreat to unwind and get away from every worry.

If you choose to leave this beautiful home and explore St. John, you are still less than a half hour drive from the famous North side beaches including Trunk Bay, Maho Bay, Cinnamon Bay, and Hawksnest Beach. Or you can stay and relax at one of the secret top beaches near us, including Hansen Bay. As a guest at Long Bay Getaway, you also have private access to the secluded beach at Long Bay which is 500 steps from our property. The snorkeling is superb (turtles, fish, squid, Pelican Rock, etc) and we have our nice kayak down by the water for your personal use - just carry our paddle down and bring it back up.

There are wonderful old St. John type island amenities near the property, including Sloop Jones' shop just three houses away for one-of-a-kind clothing and art and the local East End families at Hansen Bay and nearby beaches. The East End is the "other side" of St. John - quiet, natural, private, incredible sunsets by the pool, yoga on the pool deck, grilling on the upper deck, and deep star gazing in the natural dark of this secluded retreat area.

If you prefer natural peace and solitude, you will love this part of the island! Long Bay Getaway is designed to be a retreat type space on this special, magic part of the island and our owner family can help you plan an actual retreat experience with music, movement, spiritual engagement, or vigorous healthy activity. Or just come and live here on this part of the island for a larger number of days with our reasonable pricing and long stay deals.

We stay personally throughout the year and have amazing staff and friends doing retreats all the time - join the Long Bay Getaway Retreat community!

That time of year! Oh St. John : )
Our yearly visit to St. John was peaceful and pleasant. In This was our first stay on the East End and it was great. Communication from all parties involved prior, during and post stay were appreciated, especially during the storms and power outages. The house was fully supplied with all amenities listed, a pool with a view- just WOW! Thank you Ken for opening up your home to us and making it feel like home. It was truly appreciated!

Amazing stay
Humble but beautiful house in a gorgeous quiet part of St John. Pool was perfect after a long day of hiking, beaching, snorkeling. Gorgeous views from decks and pool. Kitchen was fine, grill was useful. Great wifi and entertainment systems throughout. The roads to the house are in pretty good condition but the terrain requires a Jeep or other capable vehicle. A sedan wouldn't make it or would be likely to be damaged if it did. Hansen Bay Beach is right there and is great. Salt Pond Bay Beach a little further (25 minutes) but unbelievably beautiful with great snorkeling, turtles everywhere. Annaberg Plantation, Watermelon Cay also amazing and 20 minutes away. Trunk Bay, Maho Bay 30-45 minutes away and more touristed but for good reason. Pretty good, casual dining at Skinny Legs and a few other spots in Coral Bay 15 minutes from the house. Groceries are expensive and limited on the island. Good idea to stock up in Red Hook if coming via car ferry (still expensive but much better selection).

Long Bay Getaway Reprise
Returning to Long Bay Getaway felt a lot like coming home. The villa was exceptional and late afternoons & evenings were spent in the pool, by the grill or eating dinner & strumming guitar on the deck. Days were filled with fun in the east end bays and visits to Coral Bay. We ate a few meals out but mostly at the Villa and had everything we needed. Can’t wait to return next year! Thanks to Ken & his family and Jeremy for wonderful, relaxing vacation!

Book it if available!!!
This was one of our favorite stays. We travel all over to see National Parks and we stay at VRBO's. We love the East End of St. John Island, more secluded and peaceful. The house is 2 stories with stairs to the front door and stairs down to the 2 bedrooms. Cooked fresh fish on the grill (brought my own grill mat) and the kitchen had anything you needed to cook with. The pool was excellent! I brought a swimming resistant band and did my laps every day. The private neighborhood beach was great for snorkeling. It was a shallow bay so the fish were small and colorful. Like a fish aquarium or fish nursery. Loved it!

Quiet get away
My family and I enjoyed our stay at St. John. Winding through roads with our Jeep was truly an adventure! Who needs rollercoasters (haha). Snorkeling, hiking, beach time, and enjoying nature was time well spent. After a day of these adventure, my children enjoyed pool time each evening and meals with a fabulous view!!! We didn't use the air conditioning because the house has such wonderful window ventilation that a cool breeze combined with ceiling fans made sleeping comfortable. With sounds of nature all around (mostly goats), our stay was fabulous.

Slice of Paradise
We absolutely loved our stay at Long Bay Getaway! It is a great location, away from it all yet close enough to Coral Bay to head there for dinner and the North Shore beaches or Salt Pond for the day. It was a fun drive to the place and we were glad to have a jeep. We loved the pool and enjoyed every evening swimming until the sun went down. It was a very comfortable temperature! The kitchen was well equipped and the grill worked for dinners. The bedrooms cooled down well with a combination of fans and ac and the beds were comfortable. We also really enjoyed snorkeling at Long Bay and spent some time there. Thanks for sharing your place with us!

Slice of heaven
Our family of four including two kiddos had the most amazing stay at the Long Bay Getaway. This was our third time visiting the island and our first time staying on the East end. The sunsets, rainbows over the bay, private beach with snorkeling, quiet and serenity, wildlife on the property including birds, lizards, and iguanas, beautiful private pool all to ourselves, as well as the house and all of its amenities and comforts (everything we needed including speedy internet and fully stocked kitchen) far exceeded our expectations. It was like we stepped into a home as we all felt comfortable and relaxed at the house. The frog chorus at night time and the bird chorus in the mornings were delightful. The house is clean, comfortable, quiet, secluded, safe, and secure. The property manager was amazing and made contact with us before the trip and was there to help with the drop of a text. This house is a nature retreat and was just what our family needed. Expect to reset if you stay at this house as its comfort and beauty inside and out are beyond words. We are so grateful to have been able to stay at this amazing retreat on St John.

Honeymoon Getaway
My husband and I came to St. John to enjoy our honeymoon. After 10 years of marriage we finally had the opportunity. This bungalow was perfect. Our goal was to have seclusion. We didn’t want the typical resort or condo. The Longbay Getaway checked ever box. We were in our own little world it felt like. The views were amazing and perfect for morning coffee and just having down time. The pool was clean and a great way to relax after snorkeling at the beaches. Also the outdoor shower…. Amazing! The beach chairs and coolers were great to have so you don’t have to pack anything extra to bring. We were sure so we did pack a soft cooler to bring and never used it. The open air style here was probably my favorite aspect of the property. It is a bit of a drive from Cruz Bay but it was really worth it to be away from everyone. Thank you for the hospitality.

Beautiful Home and Location
Enjoyed our stay, we just Love St John and have been there many times. Staying on the East End although is a ride to get places is just the quiet and peacefulness we enjoy. The pool is Very nice and we used it often in the evenings watching the sunset and getting away from the bugs ( with all the rain the bugs were horrible and made it impossible to sit outside, so the pool was great ). This home was well stocked with necessities and made it quite nice to fill in what we needed. It's stated in the description but I missed it... the kitchen only has two mini fridges that was a major problem for us to keep ice and other items in them.

Serene beauty on the east end
The east end of the Island is beautiful and the house is in the perfect location. The pool with the view over the bay is wonderful and the stars at night are amazing. The home itself is great, very nice open air concept with good breeze from being up on the hill. The bedrooms also still have AC for sleeping which we really liked. After snorkeling or spending the day on the beach, this is the perfect place to come back to and cook dinner or just float in the pool and watch the sunset. The host is awesome and made us feel very taken care of. Overall highly recommended!

Relaxing getaway
This home was exactly what we were looking for. We didn’t want to be in the busy area of St. John and we are glad we found it. It can seem like it’s far but as you get used to driving in the island you’ll soon realize it’s not. We enjoyed the private beach and wish we’d pack beach shoes (you may see sea urchins) as it was excellent for snorkeling and of course relaxing. We enjoyed our evenings on the balcony and pool seeing the sunsets, after hiking trails. We look forward to coming back in the future.

Great spot for a week at the East End. Just right for two- private and quiet with a great view. A steady breeze kept us cool every night- Even in July we only had the AC going for a few hours. The community beach area was like having our own private waterfront. Great snorkeling.

Disappointed and Frightened
This property has the potential of being a nice place to stay. The views from the upper deck were amazing and the plunge pool was really nice after a day of snorkeling! However, the cons outweighed the pros. The property was in disrepair with missing windows and doors replaced with screens, broken tiles on the deck and pool coping, and large gaps under existing doors for pests to enter. Pests included millipedes, lizards, mosquitos, tiny insects on sofas, and a large toad in the bedroom. In the one room with air conditioning, the split unit AC was extremely noisy and constantly leaked all over the bed and floor. The place did not feel clean or safe. We were isolated and unsecured. On two separate mornings at dawn, groups of 12 and 19 people dressed in black with backpacks walked past the driveway entrance asking for directions to Coral Bay. We felt vulnerable! We have camped in many locations in the U.S. and Canada and have visited the East End of St. John on several vacations. We would prefer any of these trips to the two weeks at this home. Maybe some of the rental money could be used for repairs, cleaning, landscaping, and securing the residence. With some investment, this could be a great place!

Loving Long Bay!
What an amazing house & bay and the people in the privateer bay community (and coral bay & east end) were super nice and welcoming. The house was extremely clean & comfortable and we cooked all our meals there for 9 days. As with any tropical location there are lizards, bugs and other natural wonders, we had absolutely no issues whatsoever. There were no bugs or unsanitary issues in the house, but we were not looking for nor expecting the westin. Cooling off in the pool after snorkeling each day was wonderful. Did I mention how awesome the snorkeling was right there in long bay and on the east end? What a blast. Playing guitar on the deck and having a rum pina at sunset as boats sailed in to anchor for the night seemed like a dream. We cannot wait to come back and are grateful that this house and the local area were shared with us. Thank you!!!!!!

"Glamping"
This property is definitely for those individuals that are very in tune with nature. An extreme glorified camping experience for sure! The kitchen was not cleaned very well at all - to the point that we did not cook the entire week we were there. There were ants everywhere, mouse droppings in the kitchen drawers, lots of lizard droppings as well. We even found a dead lizard in between the sheets of the bed. Sadly, there were also roaches as well. We made the best of the bad situation, but it really sucks when you've saved up for a nice vacation and then have to deal with a subpar rental. The house really does have a lot of potential but is in extreme dyer need of much TLC.
