We had a wonderful romantic getaway at meritage . Linda is top notch ! We had an unforgettable experience. One minor thing that would improve the experience would be to cut / trim the small trees that are partially blocking the gorgeous views . Overall we had an incredible time and we’d love to come back to meritage .

First 2 days were constant blackouts no electricity owners should invest in a generator if they plan to continue to rent out their cottage , problems with the hot tub wouldn’t change temperature at all only when it wanted to and when it did change it would stay that way for example same day it was 96 degrees not warm enough and last day it was 105 which was too hot , Owners make you takeout your own trash even though it should be their responsibility to take out the trash cause a lot of visitors and tourist shouldn’t have to stress about finding a dumpster in a place they’ve never been to. Water goes out with the electricity so if the power goes out make sure to buy a pack of water bottles. We had no water for 2 mornings straight, would’ve loved the heads up that electricity blackout = no water Only good things were the view , the cleanliness, and the house manger Abby, the maintenance team and the cleaning team. All 3 were amazing in making the best of our experience on St John. The owners need to put effort into providing a comfortable great experience for those who rent their cottage .

This place was fantastic, it had everything we needed, felt secluded/remote, but still was very conveniently located to get to all the places we wanted to go. Fantastic view, including sunsets, and Abby was very helpful with everything. Would definitely stay here again.

Ideal property for a couple staying on St John. Spectacular views and sunsets. We stayed at Meritage cottage for two weeks in January and had a lovely time exploring all of the beaches in St John, plus trips to the British Virgin Islands and Lovango. Abby did a great job of looking after us!

My wife and I decided to celebrate our 25th anniversary on St. John, and picked Linda & Randall’s Meritage Cottage to stay. After visiting there for a week, we both agree this is a wonderful little cottage, perfect for two, with great views over the hills and shore outside Cruz Bay. Our favorite spot was the porch, relaxing and taking in the views and breeze from the water. Cruz Bay was just a few minutes drive, and access to the rest of the island was just as easy (assuming you have a Jeep.) Abby (the local manager and caretaker) ensured everything was in perfect shape for our visit, and after meeting us in Cruz Bay, escorted us to the cottage and made sure we were comfortable with everything there. The cottage has a very fast and powerful air conditioner, which we only had to turn on in the late afternoons when we returned. Otherwise, ocean breezes were very effective at keeping the cottage comfortable during the night and into the morning. The cottage has a small but efficient gas stove, gas grill, and regular refrigerator if you want to prepare meals there. WiFi and internet access was spotless, and while the cottage had a nice television, we can’t make any comment on the cable quality as we didn’t watch TV while we were there. Likewise, the hot tub looked clean and inviting, but we’re just not hot tub people. If you’re a couple planning a visiting St. John, Meritage Cottage should be first on your list to stay.

We really enjoyed the property. It was away Fri from the hustle and bustle and nice and quiet. It had everything we needed and communication was friendly and prompt. We definitely recommend this property and hope to get back someday in the near future. Thank you.
