Property was awesome! Pool was incredible. James and Michael were excellent hosts! Couldn’t ask for a better stay on St John. We will definitely be back to this property.

Our stay at James’ house was nothing short of perfect. He met us at the car rental place and we followed him back to the house (driving is fine, but takes some getting used to). He showed us around and that was it! The house is great for people wanting to explore St John or just relax. The porch had a nice breeze most of the day and the pool was refreshing. Very quiet and private. Pro tip: be prepared for steep roads and hairpin turns. Just take it slow and you’ll be ok. 10/10 would rent again!!

Property is very private while being just minutes from Cruz Bay. Home has everything you need for a great vacation. It feels like a tree house in the jungle. James met us at the ferry dock and showed us the way and made sure that we had everything we needed.

My husband and I stayed in the one bedroom, one bath unit. It is an excellent value for the price considering you get an ocean view, a fantastic swimming pool and a clothes washer and dryer. This is a beautiful rustic place to stay that is private, yet a short drive to Cruz Bay. There are only three units, and one of those is the owner, so the pool is never crowded and there are lots of chairs. We rented a Jeep from a place on St. John, and the cottage owner, James, met us there to show us the way to his place because Google maps is not accurate. It was nice to follow someone for our first time driving on the left-hand side of the road! We visited in June and there were many flowering tropical plants on the property. There is an outdoor grill, a gas stove, flashlights, batteries, and candles to keep you covered in case of a power outage. If you stay during the humid months of summer, you will probably use the air conditioner while you are at the cottage. The air conditioner is strong enough to make the bedroom as cold as you want, while also cooling the kitchen area and brings down the humidity in the bathroom/ laundry room area. To use the air conditioner, you have to close the big arched wooden doors and window shutters, so then you do not have any view and have to turn on the lights, but you can sit on the screened-in porch or up at the pool for the view. The cottage really only has room for two people to sleep in the air-conditioned area of the cottage.

This place was wonderful with a stunning view! We spent 5 nights here to celebrate our 15th anniversary. James met us at the ferry and guided us to the house and showed us around. The sunsets were spectacular with the gorgeous view! The house was unique- I love all the arched doorways and windows with wood shutters and the round stained glass window. The kitchen was well stocked. We cooked/grilled a lot the first 3 days. Having a big refrigerator was nice! The living/dining room is a screened in room. We watched a big iguana outside in a tree for awhile. It got a little warm during the afternoon/sunset but St. John is always warm.🙂 We didn't use the hot tub since it was warm. We didn't use the pool either since we were usually worn out from swimming at the beaches. There were coolers,beach towels,chairs and floats there which was so nice for our beach excursions. Having a way to do laundry was nice! The bathroom$ was also stocked well with towels. There are steps going into the house,up top to the pool/deck and inside going to the bathroom/laundry rooms. So if you're elderly,this may not be the place for you. There were chickens,iguanas and hermit crabs around to add to the island feel. The electricity went off a few times which is not the owner's fault, but be aware that it happens frequently on the island. We'd definitely stay again!

This rental was a perfect fit for us. We love the indoor/outdoor nature of the way its designed and the added comfort of a pool upstairs. We loved the sounds of birds, tree frogs and roosters. Did not use the AC in the bedroom every night but was glad it was there when we wanted it. Only regret was not wearing insect repellent. The screens are efficient, but this is, after all St. John. In fact, everything about this rental is so "st john" --thats why we love it. James is an excellent host and was very helpful when our flight was delayed and the car rental closed before we arrived. He treated us to drinks and gave us a ride back to town when the car rental agency opened in the morning. Great Stay!!

The view from our place was amazing. We could look out on the bay from our living room as well as the pool area upstairs. It was a great place to have coffee in the morning or a glass of wine in the evening. The location was also optimal. It was just a few minutes from Cruz Bay with its restaurants and shops, but away from the noise and congestion. The host is very responsive and answered the couple of questions we had within minutes. This is our second time staying here and we would stay again.

This is a very nice apartment (1 of 3) in a big house. Great view off of screen porch! Pool upstairs (!) Easy to get to Cruz Bay and anywhere else, but be prepared to rent a car. Well kept up and super friendly landlord!
