IMO your best option is something like izpack2exe - it creates an exe wrapper around a jar file, making it look like a native app to Windows users.

Yes, there exist "Ahead-of-Time" compilers such as GNU compiler for Java which serve this purpose.
There are also commercial products such as Excelsior Jet.
