Nancy's Folly Villa - Fabulous Home - overlooking dazzling Rendezvous Bay

Nancy’s Folly is located above Rendezvous Bay on the southern shore of St John known for its gentle, continuous breezes. Take in sweeping views of numerous turquoise bays spanning Ram’s Head point on your left to St Croix with its sparkling lights directly in the distance and Boatman Point to your right. Situated in a quiet, exclusive neighborhood only 5 minutes to downtown Cruz Bay (2.25 miles), it is lush with bougainvillea and orchids. Nancy’s Folly is the perfect place to relax while enjoying the soothing sounds of the local coqui and lapping waves below.

This beautiful home has two bedrooms (one king and one queen), each with A/C, and two baths. The King Bedroom has sliding doors overlooking the bay and an ensuite bathroom featuring a large stone shower. The Queen Bedroom has a comfortable four poster bed and a large shower in the adjoining full bathroom.

The newly updated breezeway to the entry has only four steps to the pavers surrounded by glorious orchids and an organic herb garden .

The floor plan of Nancy’s Folly is all on one level, so it’s great for all ages! The Great Room and King Bedroom have smart TVs with Firesticks already loaded with Netflix, Amazon Prime and Peacock/NBC Sports and News, Pandora Music and more. There is free WiFi, indoor and outdoor dining areas, new washer & dryer, hair dryers, beach towels, beach chairs, beach towels, courtesy snorkel equipment, various coolers and more.

Luxuriously outfitted with 100% cotton Italian bed linens, plush Turkish cotton Bath towels, hair dryer, soap, shampoo and conditioner.

The spacious 40 foot deck with outdoor teak dining set, conversation seating and comfy lounge chairs is the perfect place to relax after a day of beach exploration or enjoying your morning coffee while watching the local bananaquits flock to the hanging sugar feeder.

There is a fully stocked kitchen with a new French door refrigerator, gas oven, microwave, toaster, convection toaster oven, blender and dual Drip/Keurig Coffee Maker.

The cistern water is triple filtered with UV light ensuring clean water at all times.
A Weber Propane grill on the garden side makes it easy to enjoy dining in-house while the dishwasher makes clean up a breeze.
An onsite generator lets you rest assured that there will be electricity at all times.

Very private home with quiet onsite manager residing below.

My husband, sister-in-law and brother-in-law stayed here for a week in this lovely well equipped rental with a fabulous view overlooking Rendezvous Bay. From the start, Elise was most helpful. We loved every minute here!

We are a family of three adults and the house more than met our needs. It is well furnished and comfortable with a gorgeous view. It is situated a few minutes drive to Cruz Bay and grocery stores but far enough away to be peaceful. Communicating with Elise, the property manager, was easy and she was incredibly helpful. We would definitely stay there again having been to St. John five times now.

We fell in love with this place and are already making plans to return. Our top 3 reasons for our 5 star rating is as follows:1.million dollar view 2. Super clean3. Wonderful location to amenties, beaches and restaurants and yet it was very quiet and peaceful on the property itselfWe also loved waking up and spending time on the balcony in the morning drinking coffee and reading. This property also includes all of the items needed for a day at the beach! The property manager made herself readily available if we needed her and met us at the car barge to show us how to get to the property. You will not be disappointed if you rent this villa!2. yetthiproperty

Everything was fantastic on the trip. The location, views, accommodations, especially the nice large kitchen, the long deck and great furniture for lounging and playing cards. Our host was super friendly and informative. Planning to come back next year.

A stunning open layout with a deck you will never want to leave! Elise, the on-site property manager is a gem - knows everything about the island and very helpful, while maintaining your privacy

10/10

This was a beautiful home with everything you could possibly need right at your fingertips! It was sparkling clean and comfortable. Views off the balcony were stunning and the neighborhood was charming and quiet - tucked away from the main areas, but close enough to access the whole island! A beautiful gem of a get away for our family vacation!

The property was gorgeous. Elise was responsive and helpful. We had an excellent time even with power outages. Elise responded promptly to the outage and ran the generator for us.

The villa was extremely clean and well maintained. It was actually nicer than the pictures indicate. Great view. Close to Cruz Bay. The contact person who lives downstairs was helpful, informative, and accommodating (and we barely knew she was there). We definitely recommend.

We enjoyed our stay at Nancy’s Folly. Jackie was easy to communicate with and quick to respond to a couple of minor issues during our 9 day stay. The Villa agency made our taxi reservations for us removing one layer of travel planning for us! The views are quite beautiful from the Villa and it’s in a very convenient location. All in all a wonderful visit.

We had a wonderful stay at Nancy's Folly Villa. Elise coordinated with us to wait for us at the jeep rental place and show us to the rental. She also gave us tips for restaurants and things to do. The location was wonderful, short drive to Cruz Bay, great views. The kitchen was well stocked to cook a few dinners. They had all the beach things we could want: chairs, coolers, flippers, even snorkels. We hope to be back soon!
