Other things to note

A/C RULES: Ensuring Proper Use and Maintenance
When utilizing the air conditioning, it is essential to keep outside doors and windows closed to prevent any potential damage or breakage caused by its operation.

BOOK A RENTAL VEHICLE IN ADVANCE!
We strongly advise against waiting until your arrival on the island to secure transportation. Due to the island’s mountainous terrain and the absence of services like Uber and Lyft, getting around solely on foot can be challenging. Taxi fares can also add up and may prove more costly than renting a vehicle, which is not always readily available on the island. We do not endorse any specific rental companies, so it’s crucial to book a rental car as early as possible. Delaying your booking might result in rental companies being fully booked.

Please note that when we mention “shared” space in this listing, we are referring to multiple units on the property that share parking and exterior walkways. However, there are no shared decks, interior living spaces, or other shared amenities. Each unit has its own private exterior entry door equipped with a keypad and a private key code for secure access.

The “beach essentials” provided in this listing comprise the following items: beach towels, 4 beach chairs, 1 cooler, and 2 pool noodle floats. We do not provide snorkel gear or umbrellas to help protect any potential turtle eggs that may be in the sand.

Please be aware that the maximum occupancy for this listing is 4 individuals, and we are unable to accommodate requests for pull-out, rollaway, or extra beds.

DreamView On The Hill

🌺To provide some historical context, let me share a glimpse of the past. In the late 1970s, my grandfather personally undertook the construction of their St. John Island home, with the assistance of two crew members hired from Winchester, VA. Nana matched his dedication, not only ensuring their well-being but also taking care of their nourishment. I consider myself fortunate, as I had the privilege of spending my childhood vacationing at this island retreat, even before I could take my first steps from the beach towel to the ocean. Our experiences were diverse, including sailing aboard "Midnight Sun," feeding bananaquits (sugar birds), exploring neighboring islands, learning the art of watercolor painting, tending gardens alongside Nana, and aiding Papa with his orchids. As I grew older, "happy hour" with snacks and a cocktail became a tradition that we never missed. Each moment was treasured.
Regrettably, Hurricane Irma claimed the home that Papa had built on September 6, 2017 💔. The ensuing six years were marked by an emotional journey. Come September 2023, we finally completed our new Airbnb, "DreamView On The Hill." This project was a collective endeavor, with my father devoting the majority of his time on the island, working tirelessly and essentially living out of his car, a testament to his unwavering commitment. I wish to express my heartfelt gratitude to those who sacrificed their time; they truly understand their significance to us: Dan Herzog, Betsy Pullen, John Young, Dan Erickson, Oliver Foschiatti, Dave Klugherz, Randy, Martha Daddato, Sally Taylor, Shannon Hartfiel, Deanna Summerville, and Donna & Kevin Smith❤️. We are eagerly anticipating the opportunity to share this exquisite vacation home with you and our future guests.
