Gorgeous View, Beach Access, Swimming Pool, Kayaks, Quiet Privacy - the East End
Want to get away from it all? The East End of St. John is that special place to do it! Come enjoy what Long Bay Getaway has in store for you and your family!
This lovely cottage 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 has everything for you: a nicely stocked kitchen, air conditioned bedrooms, comfortable furnishings, a private pool, fast internet, lovely native plants, wildlife, and the unending peace you need. We even have an electric piano and acoustic guitar to learn or play music!
If you choose to leave this beautiful home and explore St. John, you are less than a half hour drive from the famous North side beaches including Trunk Bay, Maho Bay, Cinnamon Bay, and Hawksnest. 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 and there are community kayaks or an SUP for your personal use.
There are wonderful island amenities near the property, including Sloop Jones' shop for one-of-a-kind clothing and art and the local East End people at Hansen Bay and nearby beaches. The East End is the "other side" of St. John - quiet, natural, private, incredible sunsets by the pool, and deep star gazing in the natural dark of this secluded area.
If you prefer natural peace and solitude, you will love this part of the island!!

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.
