My family ended up cutting our stay short after finding multiple roaches. The first one showed up on the air conditioner. We killed it and after looking for others, found a dead one near the doors to the deck. We let the property manager know. They condescending told us that the "cockroaches" are palmetto bugs, which, after a quick Google search, is just another name for cockroach. They made it sound like it was common to come across a cockroach, but assured us that the unit gets sprayed for pests. We decided to just try and rest but I was awokened in the middle of the night to my wife telling me she saw two more cockroaches in the hallway. We would definitely not stay here again. We were able to get a partial refund for the nights we didn't stay here.

I loved the proximity to Cruz Bay. This was a great place to stay to take day trips around St John and nearby islands. We didn’t rent a car and getting around was easy. The pool is lovely, as is the lanai. St John has some significant energy blackouts during our trip, so the pool provided a great place to cool off.

The property was fully equipped and in great shape with plenty of room for a couple or a larger group. It was nice having access to the pool, beach chairs, grill and laundry. We stayed during a very hot time by St John standards, and I expect the condo would be more comfortably cooled by breezes if it wasn't so hot, The property is designed for people with a car, as has lots of parking but is not easily walkable to most places, typically 10-15 minutes one way with some really long and steep hills.

The property is exactly as shown. We started our days with coffee on the pool deck over-looking Cruz Bay. Beach chairs, cooler, and beach bag were all provided. We hit the beaches early every day. We returned in late afternoon to de-brief by the pool with other people staying at the condo. Walked to town for dinner and breakfast a couple times. Would definitely stay here again. Communication with host was excellent. She even mailed a pair of earings to us my daughter had forgotten.

We loved this property. Very comfortable with great wraparound deck with plenty of shade and comfortable seating. There was only a small view of the water at Cruise Bay because the trees below have kind of grown to block the better, but it was plenty for us after a full day at the . The kitchen was perfect size for two people, was well-equipped and the beautiful half-shaded pool was just a few steps outside our door The beds were very comfortable and we appreciated air-conditioning in the bedrooms. we did find the window units to be a little loud but you get used to that. All in all this was a great value, comfortable place to stay, very helpful servicing, with a light touch of live beach bar music every evening (but not too loud). We loved it and would stay here again. We also enjoyed watching the family of large iguanas in the tree below the deck….amazing!

This home is in a really well-kept community with shared laundry, a pool, parking, and great views from the shared pool/deck. The unit itself was clean and spacious, perfect for our family of 3 adults (would work also for 4 adults quite well). The outdoor spaces were well furnished and spacious and the covered area was great on the rainy morning and when the sun was hot, though we were rarely at home during the day. Unit was exceptionally clean and was well-outfitted with things like fans and extension cords, games, and coolers and beach chairs. The property owner and manager were outstanding communicators and the entire process was so efficient. The location is a (albeit hilly) walk to restaurants and entertainment. Driving in St. John has its challenges but if you plan to do more than stay at home or go to Cruz Bay area, you'll want your own vehicle. Host provided excellent recommendations for activities, dining, and more! If we return to the island, we will absolutely request this property again!
