We had a great time. It always goes by too quick. Can't wait to come back. I made sure I brought home a real estate book with me just so I can dream...haha. Thank you for the hospitality. We loved the villa and it worked perfectly for us. Everything we asked for was provided and more. Happy New Year and go Navy! Until next time, --NRG

This was a very nice house to stay in. FYI: this was my 6th trip to St. John and we've stayed in a different place each time. This trip, we stayed with another couple. Our friends stayed in the "better" suite with the double doors to the veranda. Very cute room, and the pictures make it look very lovely. It is, but... the curtains needed to be shut all the time because someone lives downstairs and there was construction happening on the sidewalks around the place. There were people walking around often enough to mandate closed curtains and loss of the sunny room. There were no curtains on the bathroom so my friend had to tape a garbage bag up. (though someone did come and hang some curtains one day when we were out). The other bedroom was okay. Someone else complained that the bathroom needed updating. Either it had been or I thought it was fine. I do understand that updates don't happen in the VI like we are accustomed to in the states because material and labor cost so much there, so maybe I'm just more understanding. That being said, the peeling paint on the jaccuzi deck REALLY does need to be re-done. It's just bad. Also, we were told that the jacuzzi heats on a timer, but it was never (never) warm enough for us to use. The living areas are beautiful. The location is great as it is a very easy and quick drive into town, the roads/driveway is good.

Great location. The villa is still a work in progress. One bedroom suite updated nicely. Great bathroom / shower. Double doors to veranda. the second suite is comfortable but needs updating. 2nd bedroom window screens are torn and windows need painting. Bathroom needs updating. Living area is very nice and kitchen very functionable. Wifi and TV worked well. Veranda needs new decking, as well as the jacuzzi deck. The jacuzzi deck was in bad shape. Beautiful morning sunrises, and view of chocolate hole. Easy 5 minute ride to Cruz Bay and main roads to beaches. The owner is extremely nice. We rented jeep from him and he arranged private taxi from air port and water taxi to St John. His art work is displayed throughout villa. Would love to see this again when al updates are complete.
