Our accommodations were exactly as we expected. The tropical breezes on the deck were perfect. Very relaxing. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen and bathrooms were perfect. The location was close to town so shopping, food and groceries were easily accessible. It was very convenient to be close to the car ferry too. Driving to the beaches was very easy. We had a wonderful stay and highly recommend it.

“Up on the rocks” was amazing. Great views. Lovely landscape and SUPER clean with everything you need. Great location. Close to the quaint town of Cruz Bay and all of the GORGEOUS North shore beaches. We would come back in a heartbeat.

We could not have been happier with our stay. The house was perfect for 2 couples. We started every morning with coffee on the expansive porch, which had comfortable seating for lounging or breakfast. The porch was also perfect for enjoying a beer or drink after a day at the wonderful beaches of St. John. The kitchen was fully applianced and the gas grill availability was great. Our communication with Becki and Henry was great and nothing was left unanswered before or during our stay. The house was spotlessly clean and well equipped (towels, beach chairs, cooler) for a day at the beach. Easy access by car to 2 markets, restaurants, shopping and beaches. Thanks for everything! We will definitely be returning to Up On The Rocks!

We had a wonderful time in St. John. This property was a great place to rest our heads at night after a long day in the sun, lying on the beach, swimming, and snorkeling. Comfortable, clean, and it had everything we needed and more!

Great place for two couples on island. Had everything we needed and great location

Excellent stay - nice view from deck - Henry was very responsive when we had issues with the Wi-Fi - he had a replacement router installed same day.

We had a great stay at Up on the Rocks! the photos and descriptions are exactly what you expect upon arrival. Henry was a great host & welcomed us to the island. The villa is well equipped with everything you need. It is perfect for 2 couples with lots of space and equal suites.

Perfect place for our family we really enjoyed the deck and the house has everything you need for a day or like us an entire week.

We LOVED our stay in Up On the Rocks!! It's just a couple minutes from town and a fabulous view of Great Cruz Bay to watch on the huge porch while sipping coffee. Henry was more than accommodating and willing to offer any knowledge or advice about the island. I had read reviews about the steep driveway and was literally scared to death of it but overcame my fears. After the first couple of times, it was a piece of cake. DON'T let the driveway steer you away from this villa seriously. It is a very nicely furnished, adorable home that is just perfect!! You will just love Henry too! If I was forced to say anything other than positive, it would be that we wished there was a bed on the porch for sleeping out there because it was so wonderful out there at night. ;) We did have to use bug spray on the porch a lot, so don't forget that. Thanks again, Henry, for a wonderful stay! We will be seeing you again!

This house was the perfect place to stay for our first trip to St. John. It’s located close to grocery stores and town. The view is amazing, the flowers along the rocks are gorgeous. The kitchen had everything you could need. Plenty of nutmeg for painkillers was already in the fridge. It was nice to find leftover reef safe sunscreen from other guests since we did run out of it during our trip. The AC in the bedrooms worked great. The beds and pillows were so comfortable. The house is beautifully decorated with plenty of outdoor and indoor space. We hope to be back very soon!

Very clean, beautiful view and close to Cruz Bay. We enjoyed our time on the patio. We would recommend this property to others.

This house was very well designed for 2 couples to enjoy! Everything was on one level, though you walk up 1.5 flights of exterior stairs to the front door. There are 2 full master suites with spacious bathrooms, a/c, and comfortable beds, and each bedroom/bathroom area is separated from the main room by another door, so it's very private. The interior shared space is wider than I expected from the pictures, and comfortable for multiple people to be cooking/moving around. We spent all our awake time out on the huge covered deck, where there was always a wonderful breeze. There were also several beach/grocery bags and some leftover reef-safe sunscreen, which was helpful. The house had basic spices and cooking equipment, and the grill worked great. All the windows were wonderful - we woke up to a view of hummingbirds at the flowers behind the house. It all felt very private as well. My only challenge was the driveway, which is very steep, along the rocks, and you need to reverse up it in 4wd. This is especially harrowing when it's dark and raining and you have a full car of people/luggage. I got better at it as the week went by, but it always made me nervous. The price you pay for getting to be Up on the Rocks, I suppose!

Henry was great with communication! The villa had everything we needed. Loved deck! The street and driveway took a bit to get used to to navigate. Would recommend!

Upon the Rocks has become our home away from home on St. John. This property is always clean and up to date on amenities. The breeze and view are one of the best on the island. The driveway can be a challenge but it works for us....up and down with ease. We never used the air conditioning as there was always a wonderful breeze throughout the entire house. I loved the Turkish beach towels so much I came home and ordered some for the beach here! They dry so fast and are weightless to carry to the beach. We will be back to Up on the Rocks again and again! Thanks for another wonderful stay.

Check in was smooth despite flight delays and unsure if we would even make the ferry that day- Henry was very responsive with advice and met us despite the delays. Condo itself was very clean, awesome views and perfect place to stay for 2 couples. Recently renovated and both suites are very comparable which made it nice that we had equivalent spaces. Close enough to walk into town and taxi back if needed.

Our trip to St. John was such a beautiful adventure! The home was lovely. We spent most of our time, while at estate Bethany, on the beautiful terrace. It was well equipped and very clean and comfortable. The bed and bedding were comfy (and I have a sensitive back). I slept great, even with roosters waking me early. We visited all parts of the island, a Jeep is a must! This was a good home base to return every evening. Close proximity to the Starfish Market and many restaurants in Cruz Bay (short drive). The north shore beaches were also very easy to reach, we spent most of our time at the picture perfect beaches, returning for sunset views, each evening. The driveway and street are very typical of the island, hairpin turns and steep inclines. This just added to the overall adventure of St. John and the many unspoiled areas! We will definitely come back!

The villa is lovely, very well equipped, and in a great location close to town. We really loved it. Be aware that there is no central air. The unit has window units that we used in the bedrooms at night. To us, this was not an issue as the breezes were amazing and we spent most of the time we were "home" sitting on the porch. The kitchen is very well appointed, the grill works, it has a full sized refrigerator and most kitchen tools you could need. The property manager offered to stock the kitchen before we arrived, but we are very familiar with the island and it wasn't necessary. The beds are comfy. The closets are big enough. Towels (both traditional and Turkish for the beach) were provided. There was a washer and dryer -though we dried most of our clothes on the porch. The villa also provided beach chairs, a hard sided cooler and beach floats which was SO convenient. The property location was great. Close to both Cruz Bay and the Westin where my daughter was staying in the unit we own. I would 100% stay here again.

We loved our stay at Up on the Rocks. It was very clean and comfortable. The view was spectacular and we enjoyed most of our time outside on the deck. The breeze is nice but we were definitely grateful for the AC in the bedrooms while we slept. It’s conveniently located to downtown and the road to all of the beaches. We loved our stay and would highly recommend!

We had an incredible time being on St. John again, and staying at this place was a part of the reason. Great location, incredible views, very well equipped. The property manager, Henry was great and very responsive... locked myself out one day, and he was there in no time to let me in. The driveway/parking is challenging, but only a minor challenge. Overall, a great place!

This was our FOURTH stay in this villa. The deck with the awesome view is where you'll spend much of your time. But the rest of the villa is of high quality. In my opinion, this villa hits the sweet spot for value-for-the-money: You can pay less and get something not near as good or you can pay more and get something only slightly better.

This was the perfect place for two couples. Even after leaving the beautiful beaches at the end of the day, we looked forward to coming back Up On The Rocks. We had a very confident driver who backed us up the driveway each night, I would have just parked at the bottom. But I loved the place so much, it didn’t bother us. I looked forward to eating our breakfast out on the deck in the morning. I wish I were back!! It’s close enough to everything to be convenient, but definitely a sanctuary away from it all. Both rooms are equally nice. Kinda wished we had a little WD 40 for a couple squeaky doors. But reception on the island is spotty, not sure if Henry got my message. Thank you!!

Beautiful view of Great Cruz Bay. Easy driving distance to beaches, bars and restaurants.

Our stay at "Up on the Rocks" was awesome. It was as described in the pictures and overview. Great view and location. Close to downtown Cruz Bay so very convenient. Our host, Henry, was very courteous and met us on the dock when we arrived. He was easy to get a hold of. The house was very comfortable. We would definitely recommend staying here and would come back in the future. Make sure to get 4 wheel drive to get up the drive way! That was always an adventure! Thanks so much Henry for everything!

This is a very nice place to stay. The best views we had in some time. The roads are a bit tricky and it is not easy to park near the house, but we kept a car at the entrance of the driveway, no problem. Good and high-quality place, well decorated and furnished. I recommend it

This property was so perfect after spending a year stuck at home. The cleanliness, the up-to-date decor, the wonderful kitchen, and the best part......the deck, made it all perfect. Even the steep driveway became easier as the week went on. The view is fabulous from the deck with wonderful, comfortable chairs. Of course, the beaches are pure paradise. What a wonderful vacation after a year of confinement because of Covid. Thank you so much, Henry! We enjoyed getting to know you and your delicious, sweet bananas. Looking forward to returning!

Cute home with water views. The most important thing to remember is that you must have a four-wheel-drive Jeep to navigate a very very steep driveway. Cars park on the road below you so K- turns need to be carefully navigated. Functional washer and dryer in lower level is a front loader and very nice. Bedrooms are exactly the same so it is perfect for two couples as the master bathrooms and bedrooms are very private on either side of the house. Beautiful landscaping outside the bedroom windows which are in the back of the house. Lots of patio space. The only downside is the irregular functioning Of the ceiling fans And although the listing mentions a patio umbrella there was none to be found. However, there are four beach chairs although they are starting to get very rusty. There is salt and pepper in the kitchen. We did not see any other condiments. Very small supply of shampoo and soap. However, there are very nice blowdryers in each bathroom. No chest of drawers to put clothesBut there are two shelves inside the closet next to the safe that you can put T-shirts bathing suits and underwear. Lots of hangers if you wish to hang clothes.

I felt safe in this tropical paradise and never wanted to leave. Henry was a gem and I know we shall be in contact again.

The house is very well located in Saint John, near grocery stores and not too far from most beaches. It offers all amenities you will need for two couples or a small family. It’s very clean, modern and well maintained. It was exactly how it look like on the pictures. Henry, the property manager, welcomed us at the ferry in the evening, he is very friendly and flexible, he was immediately available as we needed a minor fix. It was very convenient to have the beach chairs, beach towels, the icebox and floaty‘s. You might need to get used to the very steep driveway, we preferred to park at the bottom. We had overall an amazing experience and we will definitely recommend this property.

Nice house just to hard to get to!

Beautiful house, well kept, amazing views! Henry is a great host.

This is our third stay at "Up On The Rocks" so obviously we love the property! Comfortable, well-equipped, with fabulous outdoor space & a spectacular view.

Henry and his team were wonderful to work with! When we arrived in the evening, Corina was waiting for us at the Ferry Terminal along with the gentleman who dropped off our rental car. Corina drove us up to the house, which we were so thankful for since it was dark. The driveway as stated, is incredibly steep, but do able! After our first time, we had it dialed in. I would not say that the house in walking distance of anything. We would definitely recommend a rental car! However, you are only about a 5-10 minute drive from downtown Cruz Bay.  The Villa was lovely and absolutely perfect for 2 couples. The suites were both very comfortable and it was great to have our own bathrooms. The amenities in the bathroom were so nice. The AC in the bedrooms was excellent and we were very thankful for that in the evenings.  We had everything we needed in the kitchen to cook breakfast in the mornings, which was pretty much the only meal we ate there so we could take our time getting out the door in the mornings. We did dinner out almost every night. I would recommend Morgan's Mangos for dinner! Our favorite spots to enjoy happy hours and the sunset views were the Beach Bar and Joe's Rum Hut. Although, you really can't go wrong anywhere. St. John is making it's come back and you don't want to miss anything!  The villa also had 4 beach chairs available as well as a cooler, which came in very handy for our days soaking up the sun on the beach. We also appreciated having a washer and dryer available to do a load of laundry while we were there. We enjoyed the morning views as well as beautiful sunsets on the balcony everyday. This was a perfect villa for our stay and we definitely hope to return someday. You will not be disappointed if you book Up on the Rocks! It was a lovely stay! Thank you to Henry and his team!
