The unit has amazing views, was very clean, and exactly as advertised. Communication with the property manager was excellent. There are many amenities inside the unit that enhanced the stay, such as beach chairs, umbrellas, coolers, and towels. The kitchen was well appointed. Would definitely stay here again!

This property was just like being home. We used the kitchen a few mornings for cooking breakfasts. We found a surprise air mattress in the closet which came in VERY handy for our youngest-who wanted to stay very close by mom & dad! Best part-the views…they made each morning very peaceful!

Perfect home base!
Everything about our stay at Brad’s condo was easy based on all the communication before, with helpful tips about how to get to St. John from the airport in St. Thomas and then to the condo. Rachelle, the property manager was responsive and helpful. Once there, we had access to everything we needed. A binder on the coffee table had info about restaurants, previous guests left recommendations in the guest book and all beach necessities were provided - towels, beach chairs, umbrellas. The concierge was also helpful, whether calling us a taxi since we did not rent a car, or answering questions about how to get to the places we wanted to see. We taxied to beaches and walked to restaurants and shops. The location made Cruz Bay and Mongoose Junction an easy walk. Shower water pressure was great, which is even more appreciated after a day at the beach. Kitchen was well equipped for the little cooking we did do and coffee on the patio overlooking Cruz Bay every morning we a treat. The sunsets were equally impressive from the condo than on the beach at street level. This was our first time in St. John and could not imagine a better place to stay - highly recommend!!

Great location and very clean. Soundproofing great!
Everything was clean and nice. Very walkable and the soundproofing is second to none in Grande Bay compared to everywhere else. The only knock is that there's no access to the second bedroom and bathroom from within the condo. You have to go outside across the terrace, which isn't terrible but if you need two bathrooms because one of you has Crohn's and has emergencies sometimes, it might make you think twice. Not a deal breaker for most folks I bet, but it would be nice if it were mentioned in the listing or possibly add a floor plan outline for clarity. Other than that teeny tiny thing, everything was great!

Absolutely beautiful & relaxing!!
Our family had a wonderful time! The condo is absolutely beautiful and very clean! The beds are comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. We sat on the balcony each morning and evening with stunning views! It was within walking distance to nice restaurants and our jeep rental. The coolers and ice packs were wonderful for our beach visits! We will definitely stay here again when we are able to come back!

Great week
We spent a week in Penthouse 2/3 at Grande Bay. This was the perfect setup for us and our 2 grown children. The unit was clean and well set up with two seperate bedrooms each with an attached bathroom. We always love staying at Grande Bay which is easily accessible to all the restaurants in town. Already have another stay booked in this unit in February and can't wait to come back!

Lovely location!
The four of us enjoyed our stay… had AC issues several times but properly manager Rachelle & Robert assisted us. The second/guest bathroom has a very slippery floor and the aqua mat truly needs to have a rubber/nonslip bottom surface. Took a nasty hard fall getting out of shower due to mat slipping all the way to toilet area and twisted ankle and have a badly bruised knee due to the slippery mat & floor. Just kindly advising for a new nonslip/grip mat so others do not fall and get hurt as well… in the near future.
