This spacious home away from home is easily accessed via a large flat driveway. Two small steps up from the driveway and you enter the home from a covered deck. The door leads you into the Great Room with comfortable seating, TV, DVD player, and Stereo. Cable TV and wireless internet are provided. The kitchen and dining area, as well as a 1/2 bath with full size laundry all flow easily off the great room. There is a sliding door that opens up to the large covered and uncovered pool deck. At the far end of the great room is the entrance to the master bedroom as well as the internal stairway to the lower bedroom. The large master bedroom has great views and a king size bed with a very comfortable memory foam mattress. A sliding door takes you out to the covered deck. There is a full, private, en suite bath in the master bedroom. The lower bedroom has a queen sized bed and a twin sized day bed with trundle that can expand the day bed into two twin beds or one king sized bed. All mattresses are very comfortable memory foam. There is a sliding door to a private deck with nice views of Fish Bay. There is also a private full en suite bath, closet, and small beverage refrigerator. This lower bedroom can also be accessed from its own entrance from an exterior stairway and deck.
 
Outside on the main level is a large covered and uncovered pool deck. The dipping pool is 8 x 13 x 3, and it is surrounded by 4 chaise lounge chairs. The outside dining table with seating for six and a Weber grill provides an easy, comfortable outdoor living space.
 
A short walk from the home brings you to the National Park and Reef Bay. Walk down a short trail and you are on the beach, where, in calm weather, the snorkeling is great. On windier days you can watch the surfers, or hike along the beach, over the low rocks, along a second beach, over a trail to a third beach where the Reef Bay Sugar Mill ruins are located. You can then go up the famed Reef Bay trail to the petroglyphs. For the more adventurous, Reef Bay Trail also connects with other trails that take you to both Europa and Lamshur Bay.
 
Fish Tales is quiet, comfortable, and only 15 minutes from downtown Cruz Bay. Enjoy!

Family Perfect - Exactly As Advertised

Gary F. Jul 12, 2019

Family of 4 stayed here for Carnival week in July. We were met at the car ferry and guided to the house by Dyana who also was a wealth of Island info. The house was perfect for our family. Great views, quiet and tropical. The deck is huge and has plenty of loungers. The tv and stereo system were great. The house is well stocked from bath towels to beach gear – the extra snorkel fins were awesome. We would definitely come back again and recommend this house to our friends.

We Loved Fish Tales!

Kathy c. Jun 07, 2019

Fish Tales was perfect for our family of 5. The home is comfortable and equipped with everything we needed for our stay on St. John. There was always a beautiful breeze flowing through the house and the view is awesome. The pool is small, but perfect for relaxing on the deck at the end of the day (and even when we had our morning coffee). Dyana met us at the ferry, brought us to get our jeep, and then took us to the house. It was so nice to have her there when we arrived at STJ. Tammy was very responsive and accommodating as well.

Tropical Paradise

Brian M. Jun 05, 2019

My wife and I stayed here for a week in June. We were met at the car ferry and guided to the house. Along the way we received a very good tour of the local stores and points of interest which turned out to be quite useful. The house itself was amazing when we pulled up, the view of Fish's Bay was wonderful and it was very quiet and peaceful. Currently the local utility company is replacing all wooden telephone, so that was a bit noisy during the day, but they were moving quickly, so perhaps 1 or 2 more weeks of daytime noise and they will be gone. The deck was huge and offered plenty of space to relax on. We ate all of our meals out there as well. The tv and stereo system worked well, we listened to a lot of music on the deck. There was a great breeze that came down the driveway which kept the house cool. We did use the A.C. at night in the bedroom. The house was well stocked with everything we needed for our stay, from bath towels to beach gear. My wife and I both felt we were in a tropical rural area, so it was very quiet, peaceful and scenic. However we were just 15 minutes from Cruz Bay with its shops and restaurants. It was quite easy to go there to grab food or go out to dinner. The drive to the North Shore beaches was quite easy and we took numerous routes to get to the them. We did not do much hiking while we were there as it was a bit too hot for us. We would definitely come back again and recommend this house to our friends.

Amazing, Wonderful, And Beautiful Home

Me and my family had a great time staying at this beautiful home. It had everything we needed while we vacationed on St. John.

Best Vacation!!!

Kelly W. Apr 10, 2019

We absolutely LOVED fish tales!!! It was the perfect retreat for our family of 5. The house was everything we could have asked for and more. It was well equipped and the view was spectacular. We are already talking about when we can return.
