First time visit to St. John and Alexandra Cottage worked out perfectly for us. We were there during part of Carnival week and enjoyed the restaurants and the festivities. We found a nice spot to have lunch and watch the 4th of July parade and went back to the cottage to watch the fireworks over Cruz Bay later in the evening. I communicated with the host and the on location property manager and received prompt responses right away - both were very helpful as well. We were very appreciative of all the extras that were provided to make it a stress free stay and to equip us explore several beaches: the cooler, the chairs, the shade tent, the towels ❤️ Loved waking up to the spectacular view right out the bedroom window..... breathtaking! PS also first time seeing iguanas - wow - we saw over 10 hanging out in the tree out back enjoying the leaves. I would highly recommend Alexandra Cottage and hope to come back in the future.

The views were beautiful . House had everything we needed for four nights . W/D was a plus ! Very steep hill. Jeep rental was necessary even though very close to town

Excellent and Neto tent was icing on the cake.

This cottage was exactly as described - only better! Everything we could possible need was supplied. The view from the deck is amazing, and the cleanliness and washer and dryer were appreciated. The bed was heavenly. We knew there were steps, but just be aware they are not normal stairs - they have different levels of heights which challenged my husband but he hung in there and did it! I highly recommend Alexandra Cottage. Karen's communication was superior!

Perfect size and location for two. A/C was a great help as the windows face west. The addition of a washer and dryer this year was also really appreciated. Lovely view and tremendous sunsets! Sunset view from the bedroom and balcony. BBQ grill was great for dinners at home. Easy access to Cruz bay if you want to drop in for happy hour or dinner. St. John never disappoints with outstanding snorkeling at places like Honeymoon beach, Hansen, Maho and Salt Pond. Lots of variety and friendly atmosphere.

Very nice! Felt very private to us the way the cottage is situated in the hillside trees. This was my favorite part. Thought everything was super clean and organized the shower was particularly enjoyable. We enjoyed grilling on the covered deck almost every night. Bed was very comfortable. I counted 4 iguanas in the trees. I'm sure there are more. The cottage was well supplied. Appreciated the bottled water!I've been to St John approximately a dozen times. I certainly would stay here again. A rental car is almost a must in my opinion....last but not least, we had some flight/travel logistical issues that Karen was able to assist with. Communication was never lacking. Hope to stay there next year!

Stunning views and very thoughtfully stocked! We had everything we needed and the home was so very clean! Communication was great with the host and we would absolutely stay again!

Very beautiful location, views from the room and porch were lovely. Comfortable bed and sofa, really cool tiled shower area, great BBQ, pretty landscaping. We appreciated the use of the cooler, the tote bag with beach towels, and the beach chairs. All things you cam’t bring with you on a plane! Also located reef-safe sun screen and bug spray which we didn’t bring (we brought the old kind of sunscreen not allowed here.) Kitchen didn’t have tons of supplies, no oven or dishwasher, but we don’t need that, and had enough dishes, glasses, pans, utensils etc. for our us. Has a coffeemaker and filters which is essential! The town with market and little shops is about five minutes away by car and easy to navigate. You could walk to town but wouldn’t recommend: very steep and narrow roads and we aren’t in good enough shape to make it! Hosts were super responsive to questions and requests. Such a comfortable, relaxing place! And St. John is awesome. Gorgeous, uncrowded, spectacular beaches and hikes. Will return, thank you!
