“A true island retreat—peaceful hideaway above Cruz Bay with a breezy deck, thoughtful touches, and wonderful hosts who met us at the ferry and made everything easy.”

Meet Your Hosts
We’re Kristen and Jay—long-time St. John residents and the owners of Serene Scene. We live upstairs and are on-site to make your stay easy and comfortable. We’ll meet you at the ferry in Cruz Bay, guide you home to Fish Bay, help you get settled, and remain available for questions or local tips throughout your visit.
For over ten years, we rented a small one-bedroom apartment in town. Finding an affordable place to house our adult children, siblings, or parents was the perennial challenge until we bought this property. We are pleased to offer the St. John community a reasonably priced, welcoming space with good vibes for residents' family and friends to rest and recharge.
