Takin' it Breezy - New Private 1 Bedroom Apartment

Takin' It Breezy is a conveniently located, beautiful and immaculately clean property with a very kind, generous, and helpful host. They provided beach chairs, snorkel gear and everything we needed for the beach, as well as some beverages and snacks. We were also able to check in early. If we return to St. John, we will definitely stay here again.

Very nice little downstairs apartment. Owners, who live upstairs, are very friendly and helpful. Overall, it was a wonderful stay.

This is a great place as it is a short drive from Cruz Bay and close to the hiking trails and beaches if you rent a car. It is very clean and comfortable and cute with tasteful beach decor. The owners live above the apartment and are thoughtful and kind. Their pride of ownership is evident as they brought the house back after the hurricane’s aftermath. We would rent here again if we return to St. John

The first thing that struck us was the cleanliness of the apartment. It was immaculate. The hosts also provided incredibly generous starter items, ranging from toilet paper (not the cheap kind!) to Prosecco (which paired very nicely with the stunning views off the back deck). The hosts were very accommodating, providing great information on local beaches and even access to snorkeling gear. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

We very much enjoyed our four night stay at Takin it Breezy! Very clean, everything we could possibly need, and beautiful deck to enjoy. It was a quick drive to Cruz Bay and very close to the Windmill Bar. Snorkel gear and chairs and beach towels were included and very much appreciated. Charlie was a great host and called us to help us find the property when it was rainy and dark. We would definitely stay here again!!!

We had an amazing stay. I would recommend renting a jeep for traveling to and from the property. This property was immaculate with full amenities. The owners live upstairs and were SOOOO friendly and accommodating. They provided us snorkel gear, beach chairs, towels etc. AND when we had to return our jeep early, they came and picked us up from town and dropped us at the ferry AND when my husband left his passport in the unit, Charlie drove it down to us in town! Charlie was always very helpful and responsive. I couldn’t have stayed at a better property. The service really made this place special.

Having rented multiple vacation homes/rooms around the United States and in Europe, Tak-n-It Breezy is the best overall experience we have had. Cleanliness is impeccable, and decor lovely, practical & comfortable. Excellent attention to detail, with anything you might possibly want as far as kitchen utensils & paper products for bath and kitchen are there without having to ask. Beach gear, island maps, activities and locations are at your fingertips when you arrive. The outdoor amenities are at the very least equal to those inside, with a large deck area, table & chairs, as well as lounge chairs overlooking the bay. Sunsets are beyond description. The landscaping surrounding the house & apartment is stunning, unlike most private residences on the island. Finally, Charlie & Debbie are delightful hosts, there with help and suggestions when you need, yet giving you complete privacy. We can’t wait to return!

This was such a beautiful property and the Hosts were just awesome! Location was so convenient to everything on the island. We will definitely stay here again!

We had a wonderful stay at takin it breezy! The unit was beautiful and well stocked with everything you could possibly need. Everything was perfect for our vacation. Charlie was so helpful, he made sure we had everything we needed and more. I would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting St John.

This was a great experience from pre-booking (and having all my questions answered promptly) to getting great tips on driving, groceries, beaches, outings, etc. from the host when we arrived. This was especially helpful as it was our first time to the island. The property was fully stocked with everything we could have possibly needed, and was the perfect location for us. The porperty is very well designed and so comfortable. Hosts were wonderful and we were sad to say goodbye to them and the island. Will definitely stay here again.

What a great place to stay on St John. Charlie and Debbie are the best hosts ever. The place was immaculate with all the amenities one could want. The view and sunsets were amazing. We had a fabulous time.

Takin' it Breezy is spotless, relaxing, lovely and easy to get to--all pluses--but the best thing about it is the generosity and good spirits of its proprietor, Charlie, who absolutely makes sure you have the best time. He went out of his way to let us stay a bit later for one more swim, brought us IPAs when he heard we like it, offered wonderful advice about trails, beaches, and everything else, and was an available, avuncular presence when we needed things without being overbearing or intrusive. The kitchen is well appointed to cook; we were pleased there is recycling nearby; the road to get there is easy and close to town (easy is relative, for the VI it's very easy); and the little touches, from beach chairs and coolers to sweet candles for romatic dinners, are thoughtful and a sign of a great host. Thanks for everything! We hope to be back, and send our friends.
