Surf Sound Studio | Coral Bay, St. John Vacation Rental.

About this stay

Escape to Surf Sound Studio, a bright ocean-view studio tucked into the hillside above Coral Bay. Perfect for couples, small families (up to 3 guests), and pet-friendly island adventures, with easy access to St. John's world-famous beaches.

The space
The studio is thoughtfully equipped with everything you need for a comfortable island getaway. It features a cozy queen bed and a twin daybed, comfortably accommodating up to three guests. You'll also enjoy a fully stocked kitchenette, a full bathroom, and a smart TV with streaming services for relaxing after a day of exploring.

For your island adventures, we provide beach towels, beach chairs, and snorkel gear. Outside, unwind in your private outdoor living space featuring sun shades, a gas grill, comfortable lounge seating, and sweeping views overlooking John's Folly Bay—the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee or an evening cocktail.

Please note: Surf Sound Studio is tucked away in the peaceful hills above Coral Bay. Access to the property requires a 4x4 vehicle, and one is absolutely necessary to navigate the steep island roads leading to the cottage. The reward is a quiet, secluded setting with breathtaking views, just a short drive from St. John's world-famous beaches.

Other things to note
- A 4WD Jeep is required to access the property. The driveway is steep, and a four-wheel-drive vehicle is necessary.
- The owners live in the upstairs residence with two friendly dogs and are available if needed while respecting your privacy.
- Surf Sound Cottage is located in a tropical environment where you may see geckos, iguanas, chickens, insects, and other island wildlife.
- As with anywhere on St. John, occasional power, internet, or water interruptions may occur due to weather or island utility services. Surf Sound does have solar panels and Tesla battery to keep things running during outages.
- Please help us preserve the peaceful atmosphere by respecting quiet hours and our neighbors.
