Everything you need for a fabulous St. John vacation without the high price tag! One of the best values on island.

We do our best to ensure you love your time here as much as we did when Kachi Ra was our home, and we pride ourselves on open and honest communication with guests. Questions Just ask!

Air conditioned bedroom is the perfect place to get a good night's sleep at the end of your days exploring this beautiful island. Cozy, casual with rich mahogany surroundings in a quiet, safe, residential neighborhood full of mature growth trees, flat screen tv, wireless internet, and dedicated Netflix account. Screen doors and windows along with living room and dining area ceiling fans invite cooling breezes.

Kachi Ra (Kachee'-rah) is just 10 steps away from a great pool and gas grill on an expansive sun deck with loungers and views of Little St. James and Pillsbury Sound. The condo offers direct access to the Caneel Hill trail, a beautifully picturesque hiking trail that can take you to Cruz Bay or north shore beaches. (Note: this is definitely a hike and should not be seen as a reason to forego renting a car!)

Cooler, beach towels, and beach chairs are provided. Guests sometimes leave behind other beach amenities (snorkel gear, umbrella/tent, toys, etc.) but we do not maintain or guarantee these items.

Located only one mile from the ferry dock, Kachi Ra is a very short ride to Cruz Bay by car. Rental car is strongly recommended.

This is a very quiet, serene place. We are on-island owners who work hard to ensure that our guests truly enjoy their time here.

PLLEASE NOTE:

There is an additional guest fee for parties larger than two of $15 per additional guest per night and a $120 cleaning fee. Rates include 12.5 percent Virgin Islands hotel tax. By submission of payment to book your reservation you agree to the stipulations in our contract, which will be shared with guests upon request.

A rental car is strongly recommended. This property is not walkable to Cruz Bay, and taxis are not always available when you're ready to go!

The bedroom is air conditioned, while the rest of the condo is cooled by Mother Nature's breezes which flow through the screened-in windows and doors.

This condo is located in a residential complex, not a resort complex.

St. John is a small island, and small island living has its quirks. Sometimes the power goes out, and when the power goes out, so does the Wi-Fi, water, etc. Power outages are generally infrequent and brief, not something to stress over, and a great excuse to relax by the pool or head to the beach! Because this is out of my control, I cannot guarantee uninterrupted utility service.

    Cute little condo, located close to Cruz Bay and easy drive to the north shore beaches. Condo has a great pool that we actually used almost everyday. The king bed was very comfortable and the condo had all the pots, pans, utensils needed for cooking meals. We really enjoyed our time there and would definitely rent this condo again!

    Great location close to Cruz Bay !! The property was just as advertised with all the right amenities we needed for the week ! Was nice having the pool right outside our door and the deck offered some nice views ! Communication with the host and greeters was awesome ! One note, we definitely recommend having a Jeep or similar to get to the property ! We really enjoyed our stay here and wouldn’t hesitate to book again in the future. Thanks !

    It was a great place to explore from. So comfortable and well stocked. So handy for every direction on the island. We swam in the pool every day. We hope to return some day!

    Coming back to St. John where we were married to renew our wedding vows, we knew we wanted a private but convenient location and we enjoy being off the beaten path. We stayed in Coral Bay previously, but decided to stay on the Cruz Bay side of the island for this trip. Kachi Ra did not disappoint! Just a quick drive from downtown Cruz Bay, but feels miles away from everything. Beautiful location on a hillside, with stunning ocean and island views from both the condo, back patio, and the pool. Lush tropical landscaping and flowers, many varieties of lizards, giant land crabs toting their spiral shell homes, birds, and even the occasional large iguana on the grounds! Falling asleep to the sound of the singing frogs every night was unforgettable, as was waking up to the native (wild) roosters and singing birds every morning. Visiting in the off-season, we knew there was a chance of weather, and tropical storm/hurricane Ernesto arrived during our week. Our hosts kept us updated on the forecasts, and we opted to stay on island and ride it out, although we had trip insurance (highly recommended) in case of a need to leave. We spent two days with no power or running water, with the storm shutters down, but our hosts made it as easy and painless as possible, giving us provisions and instructions. It was an interesting and memorable experience, and a view into life in the tropics. After the storm, we enjoyed the rest of the week with beautiful weather and the bonus of a nearly e

    My family of 5 (kids ages 14, 16, 18) loved this house. It was a short drive away from Cruz Bay. It was everything that was advertised to be. We easily slept 5 between the pullout couch, cot and love seat (my kids don't like to sleep together, but 2 easily could've fit on the pullout couch). We loved having our own kitchen since food is so expensive on the island. The back porch is also a great place to sit in the morning or at night! The pool is closer than expected. It might be a total of 10 steps away from the back porch. If you are coming from the mainland and used to normal driving, words can express how crazy the driving is to get here. Everything from driving on the left side to the narrow roads to the steep switchbacks. I love driving and thoroughly enjoyed all of this, but man is it crazy. I would 100% stay here again.
