Great House Villa, Jost Van Dyke

Great House Villa is located on Sandy Ground Estates on the quiet east side of Jost Van Dyke, overlooking several smaller islands and cays (Sandy Cay, Sandy Spit, Green Cay, Little Jost Van Dyke). The entire villa is air conditioned. Your arrival to the villa will ideally be via water taxi or ferry and is the beginning of a memorable and relaxing vacation.

You will be met at Sandy Ground by Saga, our caretaker who will assist you with your luggage and provisions to the Villa. From here you will encounter far reaching views, welcoming ocean breezes and a serene sense that all your troubles are all far behind you. Saga will offer you concierge service should you need to make any reservations, feel like some local cuisine, or enquire about anything local on the island.

The two story guest house consists of 2 bedrooms each with a kingsize bed and en-suite bathroom, each with their own entrance. A living room upstairs with dining area, TV, DVD's, etc. Both bedrooms and living room have a/c. Each bedroom has a large wrap-around deck with 2 rocking chairs. The living room opens up onto to the pool deck with sun loungers and bbq, which is only steps to the quaint Caribbean kitchen with colorful wooden shutters. The kitchen is fully stocked with modern appliances. The swimming pool overlooks the ocean and has a "martini seat" for those wishing to stay cool while sipping on cocktails.

Wander through the tropical gardens to a viewing deck near the water's edge where a private copper bathtub is ready for you if you wish to bathe in the open air while watching the boats sail by.

A dinghy is available to those who wish to discover the surrounding inlets and beaches. A fee of $50 per day is charged for use of the dinghy. Please let the owner know if you wish to make use of this service.

Two double kayaks are available for our guests to enjoy.

Provisioning must be done ahead of arrival. You should arrive with all your groceries, or arrange to have them delivered. Please read the house notes once you have made contact with the owner. You can purchase a few emergency supplies in Great Harbor.

Great House Villa is your ideal getaway. This rental is suitable for a romantic escape or honeymoon, as well as a family and friends vacation.

The owners sometimes stay in the separate main house, however you will have sole use of the swimming pool during your stay and privacy is assured.

NOTE: We are the owners of the property and do not use any other agent for booking of Great House Villa.

This was the most beautiful place we’ve ever stayed. The views were picturesque and the location was perfect. We enjoyed taking the dingy to the private beach. The only thing that would have made this trip better is if we could have stayed another week! If you are looking for a place in Jost, I highly recommend!

Saga was extremely welcoming, helpful and arranged for anything we needed, to include moving us to our next house when we checked out. Having access to a dinghy is perfect to experience great restaurants & islands. We will definitely return and recommend this home! Thank you for hosting us! Traci Rob

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this beautiful villa. The views were truly incredible—something we looked forward to every single day and never got tired of. The villa itself was spacious, comfortable, and perfect for our family during our 7-night stay.The host was exceptional: welcoming, responsive, and genuinely caring, making the entire experience seamless from start to finish. A special mention goes to Saga, the caretaker, who was outstanding. Saga was kind, attentive, and always available to help, ensuring everything was perfect throughout our stay.This villa felt like a home away from home, and we created unforgettable family memories here. We would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful, scenic, and well-cared-for place to stay—and we would happily return in a heartbeat.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Great House Villa. The property was clean, comfortable and well appointed. The view is breathtaking and unbeatable. The caretaker, Saga, was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. Everyone in town knows and loves him! Follow the owner’s advice and rent a car to make trips to and from Great Harbor seem less.
