"I can NOT say enough good things. My boyfriend and I just got back from a week here and we had THE BEST experience. We felt truly submerged in the heartbeat of the island, walkable to Cruz Bay and a ton of other restaurants, walkable to a market, tons of car rental businesses, and the staff was extremely accommodating. Night 1 our AC went out, the next morning we were promptly relocated to another room (upgraded). Karen and Angie were both beyond friendly, helpful, and hospitable. Karen helped us with the way of the island, restaurants recommendations, beach recommendations, car rentals, and sight seeing in general. We are already looking for another week we can come back and we will choose this hotel once again. Stay here and you won’t regret it!"

"This was not our first time to the island, but it was our first time not staying in a resort. We brought our family which included three couples and two little kids and there was so much space for everyone.The house is beautiful and very well laid out with a lot of attention to detail. The pool provided hours of entertainment and with the bar set up around it proved to be a great hangout spot. Plus they have a ton of pool toys and snorkel gear available to borrow.Made full use of the outdoor grill, griddle and burners! Beautiful view from the back porch which is incredibly spacious. The house was a bit warm since it had no air-conditioning throughout and there didn’t seem to be much of a breeze through it despite lots of ceiling fans. But honestly, with the outdoor amenities being so nice and with the views being so wonderful, we spent very little time inside. And because the bedrooms themselves are air-conditioning, there was no issue when it came time to sleep.The host was very responsive and friendly. She even made a few recommendations for places to go and beaches to see, all of which were amazing.North Shore beaches and their snorkeling was probably about 15 minutes away by car, and you could be in Cruz Bay in less than five.The house was exactly as advertised and I highly recommend it. Next time we look to go back to St. John, this will be our first choice!"
