About this property

Newly remodeled studio in Cruz Bay.

Cayo Sereno is a great condo located right in the heart of downtown Cruz Bay. We upgraded the unit in 2022 and are really happy with it. Bring your small family here or travel just yourself and get to see St. John without breaking the bank. There is king bed in the sleeping area and a pull-out couch in the living area that is great for extra guests. We have beach chairs, cooler, ad beach towels here ready and waiting. There is no parking spot but we are just 4 minutes walk from the ferry.

    Great location

    The condo was in a lovely location, close to so many shops and restaurants as well as a short walk to get the beach taxis, although a bit of a hill to get there, it was very clean and well maintained. We enjoyed our stay immensely and would love to return someday

    Scenic paradise

    Loved the location in center of town. Could get up every morning and just go to grocery store to get fresh fruit. Get coffee, and sit on balcony every morning and just enjoy with breakfast. Very clean, everything worked 100%. Will definitely go back. Had great communication with owners also when booking.

    Great stay

    Great place. As advertised. Perfect if you like to be in Cruz bay and don’t mind a little street noise. The lack of parking is a bit of an issue so I’d recommend using the extensive cab network if you stay here. Good communication with the host. I’d stay here again!

    Nice place on the island

    The unit is in fine shape. The location is great close to the ferry and rental cars. The snorkel gear and beach chairs made going to the beach a breeze and less to pack/purchase at island prices. I definitely recommend renting a car to explore. Everything in the apartment was functional and clean. We did cook in the apartment 1 night, every breakfast, and packed lunches for the beach every day and the kitchen was well supplied.

    The location is perfect, and the view was beautiful. We loved our little balcony. We were very comfortable. It’s right next-door to the market. We didn’t need a rental car, we were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go included the ferry.

    Perfect place to stay in St. John

    Wow! We absolutely loved staying here. The hosts are extremely accommodating, welcoming, and kind. They made themselves accessible and available the entire week we stayed. The bed is very nice, bathroom is updated with plenty of storage, towels/linens were high quality, back porch has a great view of Cruz Bay. They have beach chairs as well. Everything was extremely clean and organized. Highly recommend the restaurants Morgan's Mango (finer dining for dinner) Longboard's (excellent food!!), Paulie's Luncheonette (right outside of the unit for amazing beach sandwiches) and St. John's provisions for great coffee, smoothies, and bagels. We also loved sitting at the bar of the restaurant 1864 within Mongoose Junction. We recommend the Crown Bay Ferry on the weekends which takes you only 5 min from the airport on St. Thomas, about a 35 min boat ride. Very scenic! Everything Cruz Bay was walking distance. The beaches are absolutely stunning and will take your breath away. Make sure to bring cash for taxis, it will make your life easier. We recommend taking a taxi to the infamous Trunk Bay and we rented a Jeep to explore other sides of the island and other remote beaches. Important to note there is NO parking spot at this unit but you can usually park your car at the rental places or in a lot for extra fees. Highly recommend Hansen Bay, it is worth the drive! Also appreciated the laundry machines as well! Thank you to the hosts for providing such a comfortable place to stay.

    Brief Stay in St John

    Very clean place and nice location. Neighbor on first floor was a bit of an inconvenience as they were noisy at late hours of the night. Grocery store being a 1 minute walk was very convenient. We are under the impression(told from locals) that the power often goes off on the island, especially around a storm, which happened to us. Advice would be to bring portable chargers and handheld fans if you have them in the case the power goes out.

    Stayed in 2023 for a week and it was delightful which is why I rebooked this year. A new event center is just downhill from the VRBO and the music is beyond loud until 3:00 am! Good thing it only happened the first two nights! Other than that the place is great, walking distance to everything!

    Great Location!

    This property once inside was perfect. It was nicely appointed with a spectacular view of Cruz Bay. The area leading into the property, however, was a bit of an eyesore. But since the condo itself was so pleasant and so conveniently located, my sisters and I just overlooked the unpleasantness outside. I would highly recommend this condo to anyone looking to stay in the heart of Cruz Bay.

    Walking distance to everything in Cruz Bay

    We had a very relaxing trip. This place was reasonably priced. It’s close to all the restaurants and shopping. The place is perfect for two. Beds are comfortable. Air conditioner works well and is quiet. It was clean and had what you need for beach days-chairs towels etc. I would definitely recommend it. The only downside is the road traffic. Just bring ear plugs. If you live St John and don’t want to spend a fortune to stay downtown…this is your place

    Lovely place

    Lovely studio. Clean and organized. In the middle of the city. Good sunset view. Comfortable bed. Cozy beach theme. Parking included, otherwise parking is a nightmare in St John. It included beach chairs and coolers, did not include snorkeling gear nor umbrella (not a complaint just fyi). TV included Netflix. There is a lot of noise in the morning, but the worst was rosters literally outside the window crowing at 5:45AM every morning. That was the worst. It’s not the owners fault, it seems like the locals are used to them. This is a con for being so close to the restaurants and bars which are all walking distance.

    Great location

    5 minute walk from everything in Cruz Bay. Makes evening dining very easy. Unit is perfect size for small family. No parking on site but the lumberyard down the hill has reasonable weekly rates. One minor downside to the location is theres a fair bit of traffic noise from the street. Street is pretty busy especially during the day.

    Cute apartment with a great location

    We loved staying in the heart of Cruz Bay with easy access to everything. The space is bright and clean with a nice balcony that overlooks the bay and the city. Easy access to great restaurants and car rentals where you can rent a car to take you to the beautiful north shore beaches for the day. Loved having grocery store close by too.
