A St. John Rental Villa built to exceed your expectations.

Great Expectations was built with you in mind. The villa’s 4 buildings are set on top of a 1 acre saddle of land on the south shore of St. John - overlooking Chocolate Hole on the west and Hart & Rendezvous Bays on the east.

Our St. John compound was designed around the prevalent easterly Caribbean breezes as well as daily sunrises and sunsets. With 8 bedrooms and 9 bathrooms, Great Expectations is a perfect vacation villa for multi-generational families, island wedding groups, couples island getaways, and corporate retreats.
