Answer this Question

We asked expats what a typical home or apartment in Jost Van Dyke is like. They answered...

"Expat homes or apartments in Jost Van Dyke, British Virgin Islands, are typically designed to embrace the island's tropical climate and stunning views. They often feature open floor plans to allow for natural ventilation and large windows or glass doors to let in plenty of natural light. Many homes have spacious balconies or terraces, perfect for outdoor dining or simply enjoying the breathtaking ocean views. The architecture often reflects the Caribbean style, with bright colors, wooden structures, and high ceilings. The interiors are usually furnished with comfortable, casual furniture, often with a tropical or nautical theme. Kitchens are typically modern and well-equipped, given that many expats enjoy hosting and entertaining. Many expat homes also come with amenities like a private pool, a garden, or direct beach access, adding to the island living experience. Despite the relaxed and casual vibe, these homes do not compromise on modern conveniences and often include features like air conditioning, high-speed internet, and cable TV. Given the island's small size, most homes are within a short distance of local amenities like restaurants, bars, and shops. However, the island's laid-back and tranquil atmosphere means that homes also offer plenty of privacy and peace. In terms of size, expat homes can range from cozy one-bedroom apartments to larger villas, depending on the individual's or family's needs. Regardless of size, a common feature of all homes in Jost Van Dyke is the sense of harmony with the surrounding nature, whether it's the azure waters of the Caribbean Sea, the lush green hills, or the vibrant local flora and fauna," explained one expat living in Jost Van Dyke, the British Virgin Islands.
