Bambooshay is a 2BR, 2BA private villa with AC, pool, hot tub & auto generator!
Now featuring a commercial-grade generator for power backup! There have been significant power disruptions territory-wide but not here!
Welcome back to Bambooshay, St. John! We are so happy to have Bambooshay built again after a long three years since it was lost to Hurricane Irma. Bigger, better and much stronger than before, Bambooshay Villa has all the amenities of a luxury hotel but without the crowds!
This house is more than a vacation rental - it is our home. You will note the exquisite attention to detail we put into every aspect of the new villa when you arrive. We will retire here fully one day but for now we are happy to share it with you!
Bambooshay is a spacious two bedroom, two bath villa that can sleep five people comfortably. There is a California King in the master bedroom and a Queen in the second bedroom. Both bedrooms have private ensuite bathrooms. There is also a double sized pull-out couch in the living room that can accommodate a fifth person. *There is an additional fee of $50 per night for the 5th person.
Bambooshay is fully equipped with a commercial grade automatic generator and air conditioning in both bedrooms. It has a gourmet kitchen with quartz countertops, solid wood cabinets, slate floors, stainless appliances (refrigerator/freezer, oven, stove, microwave, dishwasher) and a full-sized washer and dryer.
The villa is completely stocked with linens, bath towels, beach towels, beach chairs, coolers, a blender, toaster, Keurig, regular coffee maker, small food processor, cooking utensils, pots and pans, paper towels and toilet paper. Everything you need to make yourself at home during your stay!
When walking out onto the deck, overlooking Coral Bay, you and your guests will enjoy dipping in the cool saltwater pool, soaking in a SoftTub hot tub, cooking on the grill or just relaxing with a beverage of your choice while taking in the views.
“Bambooshay” is a Creole word that means “enjoy yourself; have a good time.” Coined during Carnival season in the 1950’s, the word originates from “Bambula,” an old African dance that is carried out today through a unique “second line” dance that is performed to the beat of traditional New Orleans jazz. Revelers during carnival today are often heard yelling out “Bambooshay!” as they partake in the festivities of the season.
In a single word, Bambooshay embodies the spirit and attitude that we have found from the Caribbean to New Orleans, and we truly hope you will enjoy yourself and have a great time on St. John. Bambooshay!
Bambooshay Villa is located on Seagrape Hill in Coral Bay. Turn onto Seagrape Hill Road directly across from the fire station (if you get to Skinny Legs you went too far). Paved all the way, the villa is located four switchbacks up Seagrape. Turn left before the "First Left" sign at the turquoise gate. Pull into the cul-de-sac and the first villa on the right, with the white gate, is Bambooshay!
We are ideally located between the best of the north shore beaches and those less traveled on the east end of the island. Your toes can be in the water within a 10 minute drive in either direction!
Book your trip today. St. John awaits you. Please contact us with any questions and to book directly. We look forward to hosting you! 💙

We enjoyed our week away from the normal hustle of our everyday life and relaxed in this beautiful villa. It was perfect and had every possible need to make the vacation exceptional. We loved relaxing at the pool and the hot tube was an added bonus. Beautiful views added to our lazy days.

Bambooshay is Amazing!!
Loved the house, Loved the location on a hill overlooking Coral Bay. Comfortable 2-bedroom home, with a well-equipped kitchen. Enjoyed waking up to the most amazing view of Coral Bay from the wrap-around deck. Ultimate privacy. Finished most days on the deck with a drink/snack, oftentimes floating in the lap pool right on the deck! There's an easy-to-use hot tub too! Great stay, would stay again. Beautiful side of St. John, I'd highly recommend staying in Coral Bay - quieter side of the island, but still close to everything. Oh, and definitely go out to the Lime Out taco boat in the Bay, so much fun!

Perfect stay!
Bambooshay was awesome, we would definitely stay there again if we go back to STJ. Tammy was communicative and helpful, I wasn't feeling well the day we arrived and she bent over backwards to get us an early check-in so I could rest. The view is amazing, the kitchen is well-stocked, the house is super clean with tons of room for a family of 4 adults. Having a generator was a great peace of mind, and we are so glad we chose the Coral Bay area for its peacefulness. The drive up was no big deal after a couple times - just watch for the sleeping goats in the road after dark! Thank you Tammy!

We had a great stay at Bambooshay! The villa was well decorated and the view was phenomenal! When we were not out and about, we spent hours and hours in the pool, the hot tub and on the deck.

Coral Bay Getaway
Great location and very well stocked home. There are plenty of local bars and restaurants in Coral Bay and you’re a half hour to Cruz Bay. The house manager was communicative and responsive. This is our first time back since Irma and our first time staying in Coral Bay. If you like a little slower side of the island this is the place for you!

Perfect in every way
It's an astounding feat to build and maintain a property in an environment like STJ, yet the owners did and rebuilt after Irma. The home is solid, literally and figuratively. The kitchen is spacious and was a joy to cook in. The appliances were top notch and I cooked on the outside Weber grill several times. The pool was the perfect size and could not have been cleaner. My husband enjoyed the hot tub, as he runs cold, even in tropical weather. The elevation of the home ensures that you get the breezes, it's lovely. Tammy, the manager was available momentarily by text or call and was pleasant. If you want to be in Coral Bay, away from the crowds and hustle, there could be no better place.

Bambooshay Paradise
We absolutely loved our stay at Bambooshay. Scott and Tammy were wonderful to work with and we plan on staying again whenever we come back to St. John. The villa was nice, clean, and had everything we would need. Our favorite part was the outside area. We spent most of our time while at the villa either hanging on the deck enjoying the beautiful views, swimming, or in the hot tub. My favorite thing about the villa was being able to swim under the stars! Truly felt like a paradise dream!

Great stay @ Bambooshay!
The property has two well appointed bedrooms and bathrooms with working AC units. The pool/hot tub are small but perfect for a dip. Perfect location <10 min drive to all the major restaurants in Coral Bay (not super walkable due to the steep incline of the drive up). They also have three snorkel sets, a cooler, and four beach chairs to borrow along with many beach towels. Loved staying on this side of the island and would definitely stay here again!

Coral Bay Serenity
Bambooshay villa was the perfect getaway for what we enjoy. Perfectly located. Perched high on a hill with all the privacy one could ask for yet easy access to trails, grocery and restaurants. Located on the quiet end of the island. Views from the deck overlooking the perfectly sized infinity pool are world class. Tammy, the property manager, was the perfect host. Top notch communication and always willing to help with anything needed. Highly recommended.

Quiet, beautiful getaway
My husband & I stayed at bambooshay for the back half of our honeymoon and we absolutely loved it. The quiet, secluded area was just perfect after being in Cruz Bay for a few days. The villa is close enough to plenty of restaurants, hikes, and activities while still feeling like you’re in the middle of nowhere. View from the porch in the morning is absolutely insane. I want coffee there every day!! Pool and hot tub were a nice excuse to stay in and relax on both hit or cold days. We rented a boat right in coral bay and got to explore all the coves, snorkel, and of course hit Lime Out. The house is set up perfectly for 2 couples or a small family. AC was great, and all the appliances you need in great condition. Definitely need a good car to get up the hill to the property. Can’t wait to go back!!

If looking for a remote experience away from Cruz Bay, I highly recommend Bambooshay in Coral Bay.
The house is a perfect 2 bedroom 2 bath for 2 couples or family with 2 small children. You’ll need to rent a car as Coral Bay is fairly remote, but the privacy and access to Hanson Bay (14 min), Salt Pond (14 min), Maho (12 min), & Francis Bay (12 min) are both excellent. House is well stocked. We made smoothies daily and hung in the jacuzzi nightly.
There is a grocery albeit small and a smattering of eateries. And if interested in Skinny Legs, I’m not sure if you could get closer (Although not walkable for most due to the incline to and from).

Spotless and Welcoming
Well-stocked kitchen with all the equipment you might need. Very comfortable and of course, a stellar view from the heights of this property. Access road had four very tight switchbacks that we were unable to navigate in the rain one night, despite having a jeep with 4 wheel drive. It was quite terrifying to fishtail and backslide on such a steep grade in the dark! We were also surprised to discover that we were supposed to wash the bedding and towels and clean all the dishes before we left. Disposing of the garbage maybe made sense, but the price does include a cleaning fee, after all.

Perfect in EVERY way!
We will absolutely stay here again on our next visit to St. John! Can't say enough good things about this place. The View! The Pool! The extras were icing on the cake. We took full advantage of the provided snorkel gear, beach chairs, beach towels, and ice chest. Since you're reading reviews on this place, go ahead and book it! You will not be disappointed. The Coral Bay area has plenty of markets and restaurants so don't be afraid to stay on this "slower" side of the island. While on Island, be sure to catch Mel Knapp at the Windmill Bar (among other places). He is a phenomenal guitar player!

My wife and I chose St John and Bambooshay to celebrate our 60th birthdays that fall only a few weeks apart. We could not be more pleased with the home! The pictures understate the beauty of the home and stunning views. The changing light of the sun during the day brought a beautiful new view of Coral Bay to enjoy every hour. The home is wonderfully equipped with all the little details, kitchen equipment etc to allow us to feel at home immediately. The pool and separate hot tub were used every day and the natural trees, bamboo and shrubs surrounded the home in privacy and added to the secluded, remote experience of Coral Bay we were seeking. We are animal lovers and so the plethora of chickens and goats roaming about was as added bonus. The property manager, Tammy, was super helpful and attentive before, during and after our stay. Would love to return one day! Thank you Scott for sharing your amazing home!

Two years and counting!
This was our second time staying at Bambooshay and we've already booked for next year. St. John is the perfect vacation for us and Bambooshay completes it. Bambooshay is everything we need and the location is perfect. The balcony is very private and affords beautiful vistas both during the day and at night.
The cottage is always very clean and tidy when we arrive. It has all the amenities we require. It's less than a 5 minute drive to the great restaurants and bars in Coral Bay. It's close to our favorite hiking and snorkeling sites.
Prior to visiting St. John we stayed at all-inclusive 5-star resorts in the Carribean. St. John and Bambooshay is the only vacation that we have taken that we have not wanted to try some place else the following year.
The owners, Scott and Lori, are very accommodating. The first year they gave us great tips for making our vacation that much better.
It's great!

Bambooshay Review
Bambooshay is great. We love the layout of the house and it has everything you need in terms of kitchen, entertainment, etc.
We have stayed in SJ 6 times over the last 13 years and while we have rented some pretty nice multi bedroom places in the off season at reduced rates and we liked Bambooshay the most; we will definitely be back when needing a 1 BR place.
The short walk down Seagrape Hill to Skinny Legs was fun and no biggie (we do like to run and excercise so keep that in mind, the hill is fairly steep) and we did it many times. We loved being just up the hill from Skinny Legs, the fire station, the moravian chuch, donkey diner, the school, and that whole area of Coral Bay.
We also like the flat land making up the front yard was great, the privacy was great, and the deck has awesome views of Coral Bay and Bordeaux Mtn especially towards the evening when the ridge line lights up with the sun behind it making Coral Bay and the valley just a spectacular sight.
We loved the laid back arrival and departure. Thanks for a great rental!
