Check in process was great, JP met us at the jeep rental place and took us up the hill and familiarized us with the house.
Even though we got to meet tropical storm "Ernesto" in person and had some island power outages, JP and the team at James Miller Properties did everything within their control to make sure we were comfortable despite the weather conditions. Not only did they warn us days before about the storm, they even shuffled some things around to accommodate us one day earlier.
Hopefully you aren't there during a storm, but if you are, the house is built strong and stands up to the harshest conditions. I found it interesting that there is not one piece of sheetrock in the entire house, it's all solid concrete. The house does have a Tesla Power wall which proved to be a nice addition that we got to sample due to the island outages.
We look forward to going back soon and will most definitely stay here again.

The pictures do not even do this house justice. The views are beautiful. The house was clean and had everything we needed. Great layout for our family and teens. Would stay here again in a heart beat. The drive is definitely steep with multiple switchbacks to get to the house, but the view is worth it! Loved being so close to Maho and loved the quietness of Coral Bay.

Palm Ridge was as advertised - a spacious, comfortable, beautiful property. The pool was great, and the location can’t be beat. The view from the “upper deck” was outstanding. Would recommend and hope to stay again sometime. Eric, the representative from James Miller properties, was helpful and responsive with any needs we had.

This place exceeded all of our expectations. The views are even more incredible than the pictures on the site. We saw amazing sunrises every morning and spent a lot of time just sitting out on the pool deck admiring and amazing scenery. The place was very clean and very large. It had lots of beach chairs to use and even had floats for the pool / beach and an awesome hammock. We grilled out by the pool a few nights just to enjoy the house more. It's completely secluded with a ton of parking, beautiful flowers, and just everything you might need. Do yourself a favor and stay here. You cannot beat this property.

We had an awesome time (first) in St. John at this property. The house was perfectly listed and check in was easy. Eric was great and helped us get from the ferry to the house as we got acclimated. If you’re on the fence, pull the trigger because the views will absolutely blow you away, can’t wait to be back. Thank you for hosting us!

Words cannot describe how perfect our stay was at this amazing home. This immaculate house was fully stocked with everything you could ever need! The location was fantastic - we loved quieter Coral Bay - and we were a quick drive to some really good local restaurants. We drove to Cruz Bay quite a bit as well and loved the adventure of getting there through windy/hilly roads with phenomenal views. From this house it was only a 10-15 minute drive to the best beaches on the island.
We greatly appreciated the basket of goodies left in the fridge for us when we arrived - we had a very long travel day and were starving when we arrived. That was such a nice touch. Overall - we have only great things to say about this rental and we will be returning one day!!

The house was everything we hoped for as far as amenities and location to our favorite spots. JP kept in touch, gave a personal walk through and left us a fantastic welcome basket. This is one of our favorite destinations and this trip did not disappoint. The views from the pool are incredible! Plenty more f books, games, chairs, cooler and a great photo book with the repairs made after hurricane Irma. Thank you for having us, it was a very special trip to our family.

We loved our stay here at this house! A beautiful space, a lovely pool, and amazing views. Only challenge is the steep drive up as is common in St. John so consider a higher clearance Jeep/SUV. Our mini van made it but it was a challenge! Would highly recommend this property.

We totally enjoyed our stay at Palm Ridge. The villa was as wonderful as the VRBO pictures with an amazing view. It was fully equipped with everything we needed. The communications from James and JP were great and we much appreciated the food basket of goodies. Now if only they could have controlled the weather! While the weather was good, it wasn't the usual perfect snorkeling weather we have had in the past. It was a little too windy for good visibility. If this happens head for the beaches where the wind is traveling the other direction. Winds were high at the North shore beaches so we spent most of our time at the Southern beaches, Hanson's Bay and Little Lampheer ( only try this if you rented a Jeep- off road most of the way). It was a great trip! Be sure to try the Rhumb Lines restaurant The food is wonderful and the staff are extremely pleasant and helpful!

We love the house. My family loved the privacy, pool, and the geckos.
Kitchen is well equipped and then some. You need nothing. There were plenty of basic spices etc.
Spacious bedroom. All you need to bring is your clothes.
Only down side is no AC in main gathering area. Another fan or 2 would be great.
You defiantly need a 4wheel drive to get there, but worth it.
Thank you for everything. The gift basket was perfect and delicious!!!!

Absolutely awesome experience with renting this property… from the moment we landed in St John ! The villa is everything we expected and more! Breathtaking views and awesome amenities. The beach chairs and coolers were a huge bonus. We will definitely plan to stay here again!!

We’ve rented homes in St. John multiple times which were amazing but Upper Carolina Palm Ridge is the best of all of them. The house is very sizable with 4 bedrooms and 3 full baths. The bedrooms are all amazing with air conditioning (the other areas of the house are not air conditioned). The views from the house are absolutely amazing from all areas, especially from the lookout deck and expansive patio. And the infinity pool is an extra special bonus. Everything inside is first class with furnishings and decor and it feels like the house was just built. The location is also great and just a short drive to north shore beaches. We rented a Jeep and easily navigated the island to get anywhere we wanted to go in a short amount of time. There are also 3 markets for groceries within a 10 minute drive. We liked Calabash market the best. We highly recommend this place. It doesn’t get any better!

I had the pleasure of staying at Palm Ridge with my husband and our family at the end of July. From beginning to end this house suited our needs perfectly. The kitchen is fully stocked - we cooked several evenings at home and was never lacking anything that we needed for meal prep. The bedrooms/bathrooms were spacious and all very comfortable. The house had puzzles, games and playing cards available, which we used in the evenings. The pool, patio and observation deck were all just amazing. The entire property was exceptionally clean. There were coolers of varying sizes as well as beach chairs/snorkel gear available.
From beginning to end, working with the property manager and their staff was really what sets this experience apart from other rentals we have had in the past. Check in was very easy and the staff were very friendly. We had a small hiccup with an appliance in the home that was dealt with quickly and the propertly manager ensured that we had what we needed while a replacement was installed. The management company handled the issue swiftly and ensured that our vacation was not interrupted. I would give their overall communication 5 stars!
We would highly recommend this property and management company and would not hesitate renting from them again.

Amazing Property!
This was our first trip to St. John and the island and this house was absolutely amazing. Morning coffee and and afternoon cocktails by the pool with the best view was great. The living room, kitchen and bedrooms were spacious and very clean. Communication was superb and getting to the property was very easy. Highly recommend the house and can't wait to make a return trip!

A Jewel in The Mountain Tops
This villa had it all. The views were spectacular. The infinity pool was the cherry on top. The appliances in the kitchen were used daily, including the propane grill and they all worked well. The rooms kept cool in the evening with a/c units and the bathrooms were large enough to accommodate 7 of us. The landscaping was kept plush along the driveway and the driveway was secured with a coded gate and parking was large enough to accommodate 2 jeeps with room to spare.

A slice of heavan!
My family loved every second of our time here. This was our first time staying in the Coral Bay area and we could not have been happier. It was about a 25 minute drive to town but the Villa was secluded and peaceful! So awesome that we were able to relax by the pool in the afternoons after a great morning at the beach! James and his team were all super responsive and made our check in experience seamless.
Thank you, again!

Perfect House
Better than we ever expected! This house is at the top of the ridge so excellent views in both directions. You get a great sunrise over the bay, and a great sunset over the mountains. A well stocked house with everything we needed. Definitely get a Jeep. A short drive to the amazing beaches and small enough of an island you’re not far from everything else. Great communication from the property management company. We hope to be back soon!

We will definitely return.

Outstanding home!
We absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful house. It was 2 couples for this trip. We were met by someone who helped us to get to the house after we stopped by the dolphin grocery market. Rent a Jeep! The drive is beautiful on the mountain but the Jeep had no difficulties. The views are outstanding and everything in the house is updated and comfortable. There really is nothing to improve on this house and the entire process was seemless.
This property is one of my favorite places that we have ever stayed. 4 bedrooms would easily sleep 8 and the pool deck and upper viewing balcony are perfect. Outdoor shower was lovely and all of the bathrooms are large and updated. The house has beach chairs and pool floats, everything that you need to explore the beautiful island and to stay at home. Stop by Miss Lucy’s and Rhumb Lines for great food and service. 100% outstanding experience and we will definitely stay at this house again if we find ourselves traveling back to St John.
Thank you!

Awesome views
My husband and I with my son and daughter-in-law stayed for 2 weeks in this villa with the most amazing views I've ever seen. We are veterans to St John and have been coming with family for years. This is the first time we stayed at Palmar ridge. The location was perfect, only minutes to Coral Bay which is our favorite location. The beds were comfortable and the villa was stocked with everything needed. The fact that it's 1 of few that enjoys both the sunrise and sunset is such a bonus, especially for professional and hobby photographers. Personally it would have been nice to have the pool lights working and new beach chairs
(both on order according to the manager). I would also suggest to add some additional lighting (eg lamps in the great room) and better lighting downstairs where 3 bedrooms are located. It's very dark downstairs and the decorative sconces and canned lights in the ceiling are ok but another layer of lighting would help brighten it up. The inside colors are all beige (which I'm sure is to keep the focus on the outside) Probably the best part of this villa is the deck on the roof!! It is unbelievable!! Gorgeous views all around!! We would definitely stay here again. My suggestions are just that, based on my personal ideas only.

Awesome unobstructed views
This place is amazing. The unobstructed views of Coral Bay and the BVI’s are the best. The sunrises were beautiful every morning and the villa was clean and well stocked. Also, close to the North Shore beaches which are second to none, especially Trunk Bay. We loved it so much that we will be back for sure, thanks for everything.

Perfect house in the perfect location
This house is absolutely beautiful. We had such a great time looking at all of the views. It was amazing and we did not want to leave. We had plenty of space with our 2 kids downstairs and us in the main level bedroom. I loved the outdoor shower. The kitchen was well-stocked and it was nice to have plenty of towels. Definitely appreciated the beach chairs and having a washer and dryer was great. Thank you so much for the wonderful memories!

Your house is exactly the wonderful place we hoped for to have a family celebration on St. John! My first time on St. John was 59 years ago. My wife and I began visiting together in 2006. Last year we came with one of our daughters, her husband and four kids. This year the same crew, and one son, wife, and another four kids rented another house nearby. And, another son and girl friend rented a third. The 16 of us had a blast!Your house was a restful, peaceful, practical place in so many ways -- lots of places to sit, kitchen so convenient for cooking and serving meals, comfortable beds, and much more.We're grateful for the way the house is managed to make our vacation as carefree as could be!Thank you,B & P

Amazing property, gorgeous views, great trip! James and team were awesome and very helpful. Everyone LOVED the Villa and all the amenities. You’ll get the best pictures. Fyi: Renting a car is essential. Also, the trip from the ferry to the Villa is scary but after a couple attempts it was like we were regulars.
