The house was exactly what we were expecting. The view was a million-dollar view. We would come stay there again for work or actual vacation. The owner was very quick to respond to any inquiries that we had. He was also very informative about the house with the guest manual.

We had a lovely stay at Villa Tortuga. While near Christiansted, the property is very private and secluded with gate entry. Situated upon a high hill, views of the harbor are splendid. We did not miss a sunrise, which can be enjoyed from the deck or living room, which has expansive windows and sliding glass doors. The kitchen had a few items to help us get started, which we appreciated. The host was very responsive to all of our questions. If you don’t mind a bit of a hike, go to Jack and Isaac’s beach. Stunning!

Great central location. Good communication. Awesome views. We enjoyed our stay. Thanks for all the information that helped us choose some fun activities!

James was amazing they house was everything we could have imagined and views were just simply breathtaking! We felt like we’re home away from home. If we ever return to St. Croix I’ll definitely reach out to James. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Had a very nice stay. Breezes were great up on the hill. Just a couple minutes to Christiansted. James was very easy to deal with. Would definitely stay again.

We have stayed at this villa multiple times and always look forward to returning. James always makes the rental process a smooth one.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. We spent a lot of time on the beautiful deck in the hot tub, dining, or just gazing at the view. The house was nicely furnished, with plenty of beach towels and bath towels. We also used the sand toys, nice beach chairs, snorkel gear, and washer and dryer. The beds were very comfortable and sleeping with the breeze coming in was the best! We would recommend this house to anyone! Thank you James!

This vacation property has breathtaking views and it’’s close to area beaches and restaurants.

From the moment we pulled up to the gate The property was absolutely beautiful. The house is meticulously maintained. The views were spectacular and James was great communicating with us. The home had everything we needed and for being the 3rd place we stayed on our two week visit to the property we got some much needed relax time, we would definitely like to stay here again on our return visit.

We were on St Croix for 2 weeks and stayed at Dan and Frans for the second week. Dan was a great host reaching out to us with check in instructions days before arrival at his house. He was prompt in response and addressed our needs via message quickly. Views were spectacular and house was perfect for our 3 kids under 10. We loved the pool and caught every sunrise on the deck. Location was central to allow us to hit all parts of the island in 20 mins. Neighborhood was safe with guard at the entrance. Truly a great spot!

Villa Tortuga was a fabulous place for our family to stay while on the island. It was just as described online, was clean and fairly priced. As soon as we stepped onto the deck upon our arrival, my husband was so happy with the villa and the location. From the deck, you can see both sides of the island. All in all our experience was absolutely great. James was so easy to work with and was always quick to respond if I had a question. The home was clean, beds felt great, showers worked well, kitchen was nicely equipped. If we make it back to St. Croix, you can bet I will be checking to see if Villa Tortuga is still available!

Worked perfect for our trip. Stayed several places and this was great location. The hot tub is amazing to relax after the day of beach hoping. View is just spectacular!

We had a very nice stay here. House was nice, views were amazing, and we felt safe here. The hot tub was really nice and the beds were comfortable. Kitchen had all the necessities. The reason I give a 4 star rating is because of the cleanliness. When we arrived, there was hair on the toilet seat and in the sink and the floors were dirty. Other than that, the place was great.

This property had stunning views of Christiansted and its harbor as well as the eastern side of St. Croix, with the most beautiful sunrises in the morning! It had a great central location to everything on the island, which made it easy getting around. There are air conditioning units in both bedrooms, which was very nice and greatly appreciated, the rest of the house is open air, with breezes coming through all the open windows. The home was well equipped with everything you needed, and even had beach chairs, towels, and snorkel gear for a fun day at the beach. The owner, James, was very responsive, and helpful to us whenever needed.

This was our first stay on STX and we were not disappointed. The house has incredible views, we had a great stay. Everything from booking and arriving to the property was excellent. We definitely want to come back and book with James again. Cheers!

We spent 10 days here - perfect pick! We travel a lot and this is one of the most user-friendly experiences we have had. James is super responsive, the house is in a great locaton...close to Christianstedt, yet totally private, easy access to the entire island, great parking, and easy driving overall. As the pictures indicate the deck is amazing, as are the views (one tip, if you like dry cushions, you might want to pull them in at night as overnight showers seem to be frequent : ) The hot tub - super fun way to watch the stars/moon and city lights after dark. The kitchen is well stocked for cooking, also lots of towels, beach chairs, snorkling gear and more. I always want to know about the bed - very comfortable! We only used air conditioning in the bedroom at night - other than that, no need for it! The house isn't super new construction, but it is well maintained. We seldon watch TV while vacationing, but did watch a few Netflix movies, which was nice. I spend a lot of time researching where we stay and do read the reviews. This is a location I would definitely recommend if you like space, comfort, cooking, privacy and low-key vacationing. There are many good grocery stores near by and restaurants within 10-15 minutes of the house. We ate out a few times, but the view from our deck was so great - it was hard to want to be anywhere else for dinner!

We loved our stay at Villa Tortuga! Beautiful views, great location, prompt communication with owner. We spent our days out diving and beaching. This was such a great property to end each day looking down at the boats and watching Christiansted lighting up for the night. Enjoyed the hot tub. The bedroom air conditioning was much appreciated. It was great to be able to use the beach chairs, too. Thank you!!!

Wow! This place felt like we were at home! Quiet, beautiful, relaxing, and the view is breathtaking! James was beyond awesome as a host! We ran into some flight issues & James was able to accommodate us one more night making the process easier! Everything we needed was here. I would highly recommend this place! Great location too! Thank you James for sharing your place! :)

He had an awsome time and the views were amazing!

Very convenient location with gorgeous views. We really enjoyed the hot tub too.

We had a wonderful time in St Croix celebrating my sister’s 40th birthday. There were some plumbing issues when we arrived at the house but they were promptly repaired when the plumber came the next morning. James was very good about letting us know what to expect and communicating when the plumber was coming and going. The property was lovely and view was amazing! We had everything we needed for a comfortable stay.

Okay, we travel as a family quite often using VRBO. This was by far the most amazing place that my husband and I have stayed in at least 10 years. There are no words to describe the amazing views from the deck, the lodging and amenities are impeccable, it is a short drive from all necessary conveniences. The property manager was delightful and answered all of our questions. We cannot wait to go back!

James had Elle meet us at the airport to find the house which was very helpful because the GPS stops before you make it to the house. Elle was wonderful and gave us a lot a great information about the island like places to go, things to do and restaurants. When I did have a question she was very quick with a response. The home was gorgeous, the views have to be seen with your own eyes. We made so many of our friends and family jealous by sending daily pictures through social media accounts..lol we loved going to bed each night with the breeze coming through all of the windows and the sounds of the creatures of the night. We had coffee every morning on the large deck while my friend sun bathed (very secluded), we also enjoyed using the hot tub nightly (I'm really thinking about getting one for my home now). James thought of everything you would need to feel right at home, full kitchen with supplies, supplies to enjoy a day at the beach, sets of robes in both bedrooms...you name it James thought of it. This was my 1st trip to the island and I hope this home is available whenever I come back.

I really enjoy the place. The picture are not really great but when you are on place the house is just amazing with a wonderful view. I recommend it for a little gateway with friends or a small family. The house is in a great area. The only issue I encounter with my friends was the network. Internet outside of the house was not great

The house was just as described me and my husband loved the privacy and the location was great we wasn't more than 15min from downtown and the beach I enjoyed my stay I Definitely would stay again

This property is nothing short of lspectacular. The house is well decorated, very clean and comfortable. The deck and area you have to soak up the sun and the views and the quiet is perfect. We rented a car. 5-10 minute drive to Christiansted boardwalk. 30 to Frederiksted. We went offshore fishing, snorkeled buck island. Rented a private catamaran from. Swan Charters for a sunset sail. Chilled out on Rainbow Beach. Rented kayaks and had them delivered to the house. Then I made sure to rent a truck not car so that we could get them to the luminescent bay. But do a tour if it's not booked. This property was so worth it. The owner and property manager were very accommodating and prompt. The island is awesome. We didn't want to leave. Best experience and a much needed recharge. Can't say enough.

Our family loved staying at Villa Tortuga. The porch and the view are spectacular The two bedrooms have modern AC units with remotes. The property is very secure with a privacy gate. Overall our visit to St. Croix was amazing and having this rental was part of that experience. Communication with the owner James was very professional and prompt.

very nice house to stay in. nice hot tub, great view, lots of extra items, wifi was good, outside hose to wash off items, washer and drier was helpful, good parking and centrally located if you have a car. Better instructions for the TV would be nice, but the care taker did help out when we could not figure it out.

We were here for a month. Would recommend. Pros: -Place was absolutely stocked with everything we could ever need (an alcohol collection, sunscreen, a sewing machine… list goes on and on) - really feels like home. -View is even more spectacular in person. -Location is great. -Hot tub is a nice perk. -Property manager is super responsive. -House is well maintained. -Way fewer bugs than most tropical places I’ve lived/visited (property has a lot of small lizards that eat them). Cons (most of these are island-wide issues)-Power outages are common, and the water also shuts off when they occur; the property has a small generator, which helps. Bring a wifi hotspot and have the generator nearby if you’re working remotely during your stay. -No trash pickup - have to take it to the dump yourself. -Water isn’t drinkable - need to pick up at grocery. -AC works great in the bedrooms if you close all the doors/windows, but the rest of the house gets HOT during the day. I set up my home office in the living room and it was brutal at times.Other notes: -The airport is the absolute worst part of the island. Bring your passport to speed up the departure process, and show up 2 hrs early. -Rent a Jeep if you can. The roads are covered with potholes. There’s also some good off-roading on the northwest side of the island. -Restaurants fill up so make reservations. There aren’t many late night options but Nikki’s is a 4 min drive away and is fantastic.

Let me start off by saying this was the best experience our group could have asked for. The manager Matt pick us up from the airport and showed everyone the whole property and its amenities. The owner and the house manager made this experience one that I will always remember. Thanks so much for bein professional and going above and beyond for our trip.
