Great place, really enjoyed our stay
10 / 10Outstanding·Apr 2022
Our stay was simply amazing. We were quite pleasantly surprised to find that we were only 15 steps away from the beach. The house was clean and well maintained. It accommodated three adult couples with no problems at all. Great experience.
10 / 10Outstanding·Jun 2021
Great week. STJ busiest we’ve ever seen it but Villa made up for any issues with island being crazy busy.
8 / 10Excellent·Apr 2021
Beautiful villa situated on a rocky beach. There's good swimming in the cove but the snorkeling was mediocre and fishing unproductive. There are kayaks on the beach but belong to neighbors and are off limits. We brought our own snorkeling and fishing equipment.
The wifi quit working midway through the week and the rental team was responsive in restoring. We had to have the rental company folks fix the AC in the master bedroom and the TV in the main house. Again, they were very responsive.
Be aware that the listed rental rate is a bit of a bait and switch. The listed rate is for two people. Any additional person is (if I recall) extra $50/day. So with my two kids this was an extra $700 for the week. I inquired and was told its was because extra people might require extra water which they sometimes have to ship in. This explanation was illogical since water is collected in cisterns. Also, there's an extra contract that we had to sign after we finished payment that stated we could be kicked out if we had more guests than we paid for. Then, after the week was over, the rental company then emailed me and said that it was reported we had more than two other guests and told me that I needed to pay an extra fee. For some reason the rental company thought we had toddlers and then when they saw my very large 17 year old son, they thought we were sneaking in other guests. All these shenanigans left a bad taste.
The house and pool and porches were beautiful, the kitchen is well equip. The location is close to town for groceries.
The mosquitos were an issue for my wife.
We chose this villa because we thought staying on a beach would be fun - and it was neat to swim around in the cove, but I think next time we'll choose a villa with a higher elevation to get a more expansive view and should have fewer mosquitos.
