About this property

Sand Dollar @ Battery Hill! Beautiful vacation home harbor view and walk to town

Get away from it all and relax at Sand Dollar, a fully-equipped, comfortable condo overlooking Cruz Bay harbor with gorgeous views, cooling trade winds, and one of the most desirable locations on St. John.

Enjoy morning coffee, afternoon drinks, and evening meals on the covered deck. Swim in the refreshing in-ground pool. Lounge on the pool deck. Or walk five-minutes to Cruz Bay’s restaurants, boutiques, bars, taxis, and ferry dock, as well as the quiet beach at Frank Bay.

Sand Dollar captures the island’s beautiful trade winds that are assisted by ceiling fans in every room. Guests will feel right at home with the cable-ready smart TV, high-speed wifi, reliable cell phone service, and comfortable furniture upholstered in tropical colors.

Enjoy indoor and outdoor dining for four plus a custom mahogany kitchen that is fully equipped with everything needed to make a gourmet meal or reheat leftovers, including wine glasses for every occasion and a blender for making frozen tropical drinks.

A queen bed in the primary bedroom and two twin beds in the second bedroom are all dressed with soft white linens and topped with ample pillows. Each bedroom has its own air conditioning unit. A full bathroom with tile shower and sumptuous white bath towels is shared by both bedrooms. And there are plenty of beach towels for days spent at one of the island’s beautiful white-sand beaches.

Sand Dollar evokes the charm and ambiance of this West Indies paradise. Surrounded by lush Caribbean greenery, the complex features a refreshing pool, gas grill, free laundry facility, and ample parking – all for the exclusive use of Battery Hill owners and guests.

Sand Dollar has everything needed for a relaxing and memorable family vacation, making it the perfect “home away from home” on St. John.

Great Stay

We had a great stay at the Sand Dollar. The complex of condos is quite close to town so a car isn't needed if you want to walk (up and down a hill or two). The pool was a nice place to actually cool off and relax in the evenings. The condo was very clean and had pretty much anything you needed. We cooked some dinners and the kitchen was well stocked. The view from the balcony is really great and a nice evening hang out spot as well. We would rent again.

Amazing View

We rented 3 units at Battery Hill and loved all of them! Each one was unique and offered. Sand Dollar had more amenities than we could've asked for. The view was amazing and the owner hospitality was spectacular. Who doesn't love a welcome gift? thank you also for the extra beach bags!

Perfect stay in Cruz Bay!

We loved our time at Sand Dollar at Battery Hill and cannot wait to return! We were so impressed by how well stocked everything was at the condo, we truly felt like we were home! Everything we needed was already there, including a welcome basket with snacks, drinks, and beach toys for my 4-year-old (thank you St. John Signature Condo & Villas!). Christine's condo was comfortable, clean, and a perfect location when staying in St. John during the busiest week of the year! We loved taking in the view on the patio for coffee in the morning, and enjoyed the nice refreshing pool after completing 8 Tuff. Having a laundry room on site was an added bonus to make packing much easier. We always look forward to our time on island, and we were looking up dates to return to Sand Dollar before we even left! Thank you Christine for your hospitality and thoughtfulness, we can't wait to return!
