St. John Hansen Bay Beach Hotels

"We loved staying here. Unbelievable snorkeling directly in front of the house--we saw turtles, rays, cuttle fish, blue tang, and more--like swimming in an aquarium. Absolutely would stay again. Host very welcoming and supportive."

"We knew exactly what kind of minimalist hotel this was, and it exceeded our expectations. We loved everything about our stay"

"We had a fabulous experience! The view is incredible, with the constant sound of waves and a refreshing ocean breeze. The balcony and outdoor space were amazing—enjoying coffee while watching the sunrise was the perfect way to start each day.The cottage was clean, comfortable, and well equipped with everything we needed. The beds were very comfortable, and each room had its own air-conditioning unit. Jim, our host, was respectful, courteous, and incredibly helpful. He had snorkel gear ready for us, and the beach chairs were a huge bonus. He shared great recommendations for places to visit, local sleep remedies, a charter company and captain, and even invited us to a Christmas service. When a small repair was needed, Jim responded quickly and resolved it promptly. He was also very responsive before our arrival.The island offers beautiful beaches, bays, and fantastic restaurants. We recommend exploring as much as possible, but don’t miss the views at The Windmill Bar—we went three times! We loved 1864 The Restaurant in Cruz Bay (twice) and Gingo’s as well.We also recommend FlyAway Charters and a visit to Eden Jewelers for some beautiful bling.Pro tip: Pack bug spray and anti-itch cream—mosquitoes and no-see-ums are common on the island no matter where you stay.We would absolutely stay here again. Thank you, Jim!"

"The kitchen was big and spacious to make food in. They had a great barbecue and the sunrise from the balcony was really nice. The beds were super comfortable. They had an air condition in each room. The couch was also very comfortable. 10 out of 10 would do it again."

"We had a great time. Host was very responsive and easy to work with. Our family really enjoyed the privacy and seclusion this home had to offer."

"We absolutely loved our stay at this home in St. John. The view was incredible, and the calm, clear water made it perfect for snorkeling, paddle boarding, and kayaking right from the property (we rented a kayak and paddle boards from a local company). The house was spotless, well-stocked, and set up perfectly for our two families (4 adults and 5 teens) with plenty of space, two master suites, and great areas for both kids and adults to relax. The management company was outstanding—quick to respond to questions and very helpful when the island had a power outage, sending someone immediately to check the generator. The location felt private and peaceful, with easy access to a nearby market and great restaurants. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend both the home and the management team."

"Clean and nice view. Well kept with close parking. The road nearby was very busy."

"Blue pearl villa has everything you could ever want and the pictures do not capture the beauty of this place. You are sourounded with the sound of waves and a beautiful setting where the sun rises over coral bay to greet you every morning. The pool is layed with beautiful brown pebbles and you can still see the ocean when your in it. The Host, John goes above and beyound to make sure your stay is as comfortable as possible and responds quickly. The view of the stars are absolutely amazing at night and the layout of the house was perfect for my family. Thank you Blue pearl villa for being exactly what my family needed!"

"This is the perfect location if you want to be away from it all but still be close to everything. The location was quiet and serene. We loved having coffee on the porch in the morning with the gorgeous view. Every day there were birds singing, cute lizards running about, and hummingbirds in the trees. Most beaches and trails were only about a 15 minute drive. Highly recommend. Would definitely stay here again. "
