About this property

Just Peachy Private Pool Villa, Ford Bronco, Solar+Battery backup, near Cruz Bay

Now you can have it all - private pool villa and use of the owner's Ford Bronco (with verified insurance transfer and damage / fuel deposit paid) with the convenience of a single booking. Worried about power outages? Not at Peachy! While other homes may leave you in the dark, we'll have you shining bright with our new solar roof and three backup batteries.

Nestled on the mountainside of Gifft Hill, this charming St. John home will give your group peace and comfort away from the hustle and bustle of downtown. Relax on the wrap-around porch and watch the sunset over Pilsbury Sound, listen to the Coqui frogs, enjoy visits from local iguanas and lounge on the newly updated pool deck while you unwind from your day of adventure. The nightlife of Cruz Bay is less than ten minutes away, and the National Park Beaches are about fifteen minutes. Close enough to all of the tourist action, but you won't have to sacrifice peace and comfort for proximity. The amazing views and evening entertainment of the Windmill Bar are also just five minutes away.

This unique space offers a main home level with two bedrooms, living room, full kitchen and 1.5 bathrooms, and a dreamy wrap around porch, as well as a separate lower story apartment with a separate entrance, kitchen, bathroom and private deck. Just Peachy offers the perfect solution for a group of travelers or larger families who would like to share their vacation while also maintaining personal space. Effective for bookings made on or after 01/10/2024, the booking now includes use of our 2022 Ford Bronco (with approved insurance transfer and deposit - must replace fuel).

What an amazing experience

Could not recommend this property more! It was perfect for three different couples, but would be just as perfect for a family with kids. The private pool was great to have, the included Bronco was awesome for getting around the island, and the host was more than accommodating! If we return to St John, we will absolutely be staying at this property again!

A Really Peachy Place!

We loved our stay at Just Peachy. The house and pool are so generously and graciously prepared for guests and the off and on island hosts were wonderful. The kitchen has every tool/appliance you need, cooking on the grill and in the main kitchen was a breeze. We had two couples in the main house, a younger couple and their two toddlers in the lower apartment. It was perfect. We made it to over 7 beaches for excellent snorkeling and three hikes to Honeymoon Bay, Waterlemon Cay and Ram’s Head. The pool was such a treat for a cool dip each afternoon. Early dinner at Skinny Legs always fun (didn’t want to drive in the dark and loved the early dinner 1/2 price drinks!). I could go on and on, looking forward to staying here again, when we come back to St. John!

Truly Just Peachy!

Our stay last week was just perfect! We were celebrating my 60th birthday with my husband, our 3 adult daughters and two of their boyfriends, plenty of space for all. The house is set way up in the hills above Cruz Bay with wonderful views. All photos represent the property very well. Melissa, the host was wonderful as was her team in St. John. The house is decorated beautifully and equipped with everything we needed! Loved the patio and pool areas. We picked the jeep up right at the ferry dock which was really convenient, and then were able to use it after we checked out at 10am until we took the ferry back to St Thomas at 1 pm. I highly recommend this lovely property and would come back again in a second!

A great family friendly house

We stayed three nights so it was brief yet we enjoyed every minute. Melissa was by far the best hostess I’ve experienced in terms of her willingness to go above and beyond with guidance and advice for first time visitors. She was super helpful with recommendations and I’m very grateful for the advice she provided. The house was clean, well appointed and comfortable.

We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. My husband and I traveled with my two young adult children and three of their friends. Everyone had their own space. The house was well equipped with everything we needed to make us feel right at home. Would 10/10 stay there again.

Amazing Hideaway

We LOVED our stay at Just Peachy. Our arrival being met by Kim was wonderful. Communication was great and she gave us a thorough tour of the property and advice about what to do while on St John. We used the dinghy and went out to Lime Out and explored.the mangroves, had sunset drinks at the Windmill, and on Kim's advice had a great time at a local event. The Villa is beautiful, the pool was perfect , and the house is adorable. Thanks for a great way to unwind after our sailing trip. It was perfect.

Beautiful rental!!

My family had an amazing stay in St. John and LOVED this rental. It was close enough to Cruz Bay and the beaches, spacious and cleanly. Melissa was very responsive and helped us with anything we needed assistance with. We brought our small dog and we were able to rent a vehicle directly from her, which made the whole process very convenient!

Christmas in St. John

Can not say enough good about our stay right down to the Christmas tree. House had everything we needed to be comfortable, relax and cook many meals together. Communication with owner and manager was excellent. House is centrally located with easy access to beaches, grocery and bars/restaurants. Available vehicle and dinghy day at Coral Bay were definitely bonuses that are most appreciated. We had an amazing family trip with memories for a lifetime.

First visit to St. John

We enjoyed our stay at this home. The beds were comfortable and that is always a major plus for us. The convenience of renting their vehicle as an option was convenient and highly recommend it if you want to explore the island with flexibility. We spent most of our time outdoors but the home and accommodations were very comfortable. Location was great. The owner and property manager were awesome to work with. If you are looking for a convenient location, comfort and amenities offered by the owners then this place is as Peachy as it gets. Thank you Melissa for a wonderful stay and visit.

This home is a little off the beaten path, literally(!), but if you don't mind the driving challenge, it's a great location in the middle of the island, about 15-20 minutes to everywhere! The owners were also super cool and communicated well about some issues we experienced. Would def recommend!

Christmas stay

For our Christmas vacation, This house and owner met most of the marks. We were met on island by someone other than the listed property manager, which was fine. We were given a very quick run through the house and left to it. Upon entry to the house, we were very pleased to find a full size Christmas tree was set up in the living room. That was a nice touch and much appreciated. The house overall is very nice. Tucked away on a hilltop, it feels very private. The pro's of the stay were that the house is well stocked with everything you may need to be comfortable while away from home, the use of the dinghy was great as long as you have experience on the water. We did not use the vehicle as we came with our own rental. Communication prior to our stay was great with all my questions promptly answered. The cons were when we entered the house and the lower apartment unit, we were hit with a very heavy mold/mildew smell as if the house had been closed up for some time. Im not sure if that's the nature of the property or if it was this particular instance, but it was rough on the respiratory system. I bought some Lysol air sanitizer and sprayed frequently. By the end of our short 3 night/4 day stay it was tolerable. The hot water was not working in the shower in the lower unit, which was not pleasant. We did not lose power at all during our stay, but lost wifi, and cell service is sketchy at best. Overall, we enjoyed our time on the island

Family trip

This was our first time on St. John with our group of six and we had no idea what to expect. Just Peachy eased the learning curve.The use of the bronco and the dinghy for a half day really brought a complete vacation experience to the stay. We only stayed four nights and packed the whole trip with activities. Looking back I wish I had planned more time to enjoy the relaxing balcony view and spend time by the pool. The kitchen was well stocked, and we cooked large dinners several nights. This was a great way to save money and spend quality family time together. The house has a very convenient location close to the windmill bar, the sweet shack, Midway market, and Cruz Bay. ***Bonus the smart TV allowed us to watch the Super Bowl from the living room! The only recommendation I would make is replacing or upgrading the snorkel gear and beach chairs. I’m already missing the sunrise from the balcony and would book again in a heartbeat!

About the host

Hosted by Melissa Miller

Host profile image
Jeff, Melissa & Grayson Miller, originally from North Georgia, reside in the Tampa, Florida area. Their love for travel, adventure and the sea brought them to St. John while rebuilding a Hurricane Irma wrecked catamaran. We fell in love with the island and the people, and we kept returning to enjoy the charm and warmth of St. John. While staying in a privately owned vacation property, we picked up a real estate magazine, and started looking. Here we are! We have all personally poured a lot of love into this property, and we hope you will see it. When we are not working, we enjoy fishing, boating, scuba diving, travel everywhere, and enjoying peace and beauty in the world. We share our Florida home with two very spoiled West Highland White Terriers (Frank & Beans!!!) who love chasing squirrels and lizards, squeaky toys, and pretty anything that moves or makes noise.

Why they chose this property

"Just Peachy" was the name of the property in the real estate listing. We are from GA, and thought, "We have to see this one." Close to downtown Cruz Bay and the ferry, easy access by car, and a quick trip to the National Park beaches made this incredibly charming home stand out. In addition, when you walk through the doors of Peachy, it has an immediate feeling of home and comfort. Beautiful and full of character and warmth, this is not a "don't touch me" place. You, your friends and family will all feel like you are at your home away from home. That is our hope for you. We want to be a base for your "Just Peachy" St. John vacation.

What makes this property unique

Just Peachy gives you the exclusive feel of living the real St. John experience -- quiet, peaceful and, yet, still so full of life. Here, you can be a traveler, but not feel like a tourist. Secluded, yet minutes from downtown Cruz Bay and the National Park Beaches, you have the best of both worlds. Don't take our word for it -- come experience the "Peachy" life for yourself.
