Private cottage in great location with a Path to Chocolate Hole Beach

Molly’s Cottage is located in upscale Chocolate Hole, a great neighborhood for walking and running. It is a ten-minute drive to the spectacular National Park beaches and a few minutes away from the town of Cruz Bay (“Love City” has wonderful restaurants and shops).

Our cottage, made of tropical hardwoods, was lovingly built and maintained by our family over the past 20 years. We (a Vermont artist and her husband) have paid attention to detail in furnishings, art, and landscaping. We have just renovated the whole upstairs putting in a new larger kitchen. The kitchen is fully equipped. You can dine at home on the spacious deck overlooking Chocolate Hole beach. Relax and enjoy movies on a wide screen TV or simply take in the tropical night sounds

Molly’s Cottage is perfect for a couple that want an affordable and private small house, you can rent just the upstairs or both floors and share it with friends. The spacious bedroom and bath on the lower level is also perfect for a small family – put the kids downstairs and everyone has privacy.

Molly’s cottage
The cottage was perfect for our stay in St. John. Sitting on the porch overlooking the bay was glorious. Pretty well stocked kitchen. We loved that there were beach towels, chairs, and snorkel gear for us to use. Our host responded quickly to questions. You will need a car to get around as the the cottage is not very close to the ferry or restaurants and St. John is not conducive to walking (lots of hills, no sidewalks).

Cozy cottage
Mollys Cottage is perfect for a couple or even two. It sets overlooking Chocolate Hole. Comfortable, nice deck, has everything needed for your stay. It’s located less that 10 minutes from Cruz Bay, a grocery store is nearby, nice quiet neighborhood, hardly any road traffic, easy to get to. There is always a gentle breeze coming up from the bay, which helps to keep it cool and keep the bugs at bay. This was our 5th stay on STJ. We would definitely stay here again. And recommend to friends and family. Only negative comment would be, there is some updating that needs to be done. But once you understand how difficult it is to get things to STJ, it becomes a minor issue.

Private get away
Molly’s cottage is in a convenient and quiet residential area. It was very private though there are neighbors nearby. The owner was responsive and helpful. You will want a car to get around. The wrap around porch is flooded with sunshine all day and expands the living space considerably.

Great location
Worked well for our family. Enjoyed sitting on the deck and enjoying the view and the breezes. It got a little warm without AC but there were several fans and with the windows open the breeze helped cool things. The house had everything we needed and Beach supplies were an added bonus! House was close to groceries and not far from the excellent beaches of St John.

Perfect cottage.
Molly's cottage was perfect for our stay. It is beautiful, very well maintained and offered everything we needed. I stayed in the bedroom on the main floor and my two friends stayed in the lower level. We both had our own bathrooms. We didn't cook but the kitchen was amazing. There are markets to buy groceries very close to the cottage. If I go back to St. John with my family, I would definitely want to rent this cottage again. We rented a jeep and would recommend that to anyone. It's not walking distance to town only because the roads are narrow and very steep at times. Two large decks on the back offered gorgeous views and relaxation. Thank you! 🌴😎

St. John vacation
St. John was a nice vacation. We enjoyed time on the beaches. Was hoping the snorkeling would have been better. This vrbo is a more rustic cottage. Amenities were good but could have been a bit cleaner.
