"Our family had a wonderful one-week stay at Casa Yaya. In addition to the amazing views, the house was fully stocked with kitchen amenities, washer/dryer, pool toys, beach chairs/floats, toiletries, paper products, towels, etc. One of the hosts met us and escorted us to the house to make sure we found the property - which was very helpful! She got us situated and showed us where everything was in the home. The house is located nearby many beaches - 15-20min to Maho, Cinnamon, Trunk, Salt Pond Bays. We went to all - but our favorite was Maho where we saw turtles!We rented the truck through the house and were very thankful we did as the roads in St John certainly require a rugged vehicle - steep roads, tight turns, dirt/gravel.The grandparents stayed in the two main level bedrooms, while the parents and kids stayed in the upper loft. The loft is very spacious, although the only access is a wooden ladder that is very tightly situated near one of the bedrooms. We went up and down that ladder a lot throughout the week.Everyone loved the pool - which allows for a prime location to view the islands!We loved every minute! Thank you!"

"island stones has 6 bedrooms with bathrooms all very private. 2 bedrooms on main floor. The rest are very separate. Kind of quirky layout but worked. Youngest children stayed in room with their parents. Pool is 6 foot deep. The most beautiful view we have ever seen! Worked out for our family. Everyone has a tremendous time. "

"Absolutely loved this house! The attention to detail in this home was wonderful! Very clean and everything you could possibly need. The view was amazing! The location was also very accessible. The owner Amanda was very helpful with any questions I had. We will definitely be back!"

"The communication with property manager and house caretaker was great. Eddie was a great host and spent plenty of time getting us familiar with the house and all the great amenities. The views are spectacular and the house is absolutely beautiful! We had two families with a total of 8 people and there was more than enough room for everyone. Although the house is not exactly convenient to the hustle and bustle, it is perfectly situated to get away from the busy areas while still being able to easily access the beaches and still fairly easy access to eating establishments and shopping. A Jeep is absolutely necessary, but that is the case for almost everywhere on the island. There is an extra charge for using the ac in the kitchen and dining area (we did not choose to use it), but we did not need it as long as you open up the windows and doors while in those areas. The breezes through the home are perfect and all the bedrooms have ac so you will be perfectly comfortable. We also did not add the hot tub use while we were there, but I would recommend doing that since the pool is a little chilly (due to being shaded most of the day) and the views from the hot tub would a great way to end the day. The huge patios, porches, etc are perfect for taking in morning sunrises and evening moonlit cocktail hours. The house has beach chairs and floats that we used daily. We highly recommend this beautiful home and the amazing staff that treated us so well for our 7 day stay! "

"Paradise on the mountain with views of Coral Bay. Bay Rum Breeze is an absolutely gorgeous home. What I wouldn’t give to have a family room wall to slide open and enjoy ocean breezes! Check in process was flawless. Beach towels provided, beach chairs provided, cooler provided (freezer filled with reusable ice packs); all made beach days so much easier. Very few miner “house” issues. Dining chairs were loose at joints, one stove burner didn’t light, dryer vent needed cleaning, dishwasher bottom rack was wonky. All these issues are typical home issues that were reported and some of them were addressed the same day! All in all a fabulous week with family and would highly recommend this home. Oh, and the frogs and lizards were awfully cute too."

"Thank you Jill for everything. I fell in love with St. John and your villa, I felt like at home and there were days I didn’t want to go anywhere and just stay in your place. So so beautiful and relaxing ! Only positive memories !"

"Great views, wonderful natural setting sleeping with the trees!"

"We loved our first stay here. The bungalow was perfect for two with a gorgeous view right from bed. The pool and outdoor showers were private and so nice each morning or night under the stars with the lights turned off. Loved sitting on the porch as I am now listening to jazz with my coffee and my love. So much wildlife around too! Roosters, donkeys, cats, goats stopping by our pool and birds. Very close to Francis and Maho! Just a great stay. Went to skinny legs for great food and service just below too!"

"Just a great getaway villa overlooking the south side of St. Johns not far from beaches. Cool breezes and wonderful views surrounded by eclectic trees and plants. Do it!"
