Estate Hansen Bay Cottage | Rebecca's Fancy - directly across from Hansen Bay

1 Bedroom Cottage in Estate Hansen Bay, St John

Rebecca's Fancy is ideal for couples who enjoy swimming, snorkeling, SCUBA, kayaking, SOP, sailing, hiking, star gazing, fishing, and beach combing right outside your door. Shallow calm waters, cool tropical tradewinds, lush landscaping, amazing rainbows, and enchanting starry nights await.
The spotless air-conditioned, one bedroom, one bath cottage has full kitchen with dishwasher, decks and patio with chaise lounges and gas grill. Rebecca's Fancy was designed and equipped with full amenities for your comfort and convenience. Nature provides all the sights, sounds and smells.
The friendly easy-going island of St. John remains one of the most pristine and uncrowded in the Caribbean. Most of St. John's land (2/3's) and surrounding waters are managed by the United States National Park Service. Rebecca's Fancy is located on the east end of St John on Hansen Bay, directly across from the accessible sandy beach.
After driving through the National Park's Hurricane Hole you arrive at the quiet East End that is remote and completely surrounded by aquamarine crystal clear waters, white sand beaches and breathtaking views. Several uncrowded beaches are a walk away. A relaxing ten minute drive to Coral Bay and you will enjoy dining, live music, horseback riding and boutique shopping. National Park activities are nearby.
Because our electricity is expensive and unreliable we installed a 8kwh solar system in 2013. We are powering the cottage and main house 100% with solar power and a battery backup system.

Summary: If your desire is to snorkel, kayak and swim this is your ideal place. We loved being able to do this without getting in the car. The quiet and peaceful location suited us and had everything we needed for an extended stay. The hosts were delightful and helpful and the views memorable.

Summary: Our stay at Rebecca's Fancy allowed us to spend most of our days across the street at Hanson's Bay, where we enjoyed snorkeling, swimming and beach play. Jay set up a covered shelter over their picnic table on the beach, so we had shade and a place to put our stuff. We did drive out to Cruz Bay and the north shore beaches one of our days, and spent one day at Salt Pond bay, but we were there for the snorkeling and quiet relaxation, so there was no need to spend too much time driving about. Jay and Athena were wonderful hosts, and the cottage was very nice. We were surprised at the high cost of food (~ 3x the cost of groceries at home), and the lack of much island-grown fruits or veggies. There are several restaurants/bars and 3 grocery stores in Coral Bay, which is a ~ 20 minute drive away. We are definitely hoping to return here!

Summary: My husband and I were looking for a relaxing, secluded place to spend our vacation - Rebecca's Fancy was everything we wanted and more. Located in the beautiful and remote East End of St. John, the property was extremely well kept, comfortable, full of thoughtful amenities and decor. The wraparound deck offered stunning views, and we spent each morning enjoying the sounds of the birds and wildlife, basking in the breathtaking vista of teal waters and lush mountains across the way. The bay is just steps away from the cottage and offers a lovely sandy beach as well as plenty of reefs for snorkeling and exploring. Jay was the perfect host, an endless source of information and laughs - he made himself available whenever we needed him while also giving us plenty of space and privacy the rest of our stay. Thank you Jay and Athena for the most beautiful memories in your little slice of paradise. We are already dreaming of our return.

Summary: As usual, we enjoyed every moment of our getaway to the East End of the island in this cozy cottage, especially prime location to the waters edge on the beautiful Hansen Beach. The cottage has all you need for a resting place after a full days journey around the island. Thank you again Jay and Athena! See you next year, God willing!
