This house was exactly what we needed after spending a few days camping. The views were great and it was very private despite being tucked in between several other houses. It is a short and doable walk to town and the traffic on the small roads around it was very light. The private pool was great and refreshing. The a/c in the bedrooms was exactly what you needed after a long day outside. I loved our stay here and would come back and stay again if I get the chance!

We really loved being at Frank House! The house has a gorgeous view and stocked nicely with essentials! I recommend going straight to the house before going shopping… there were lots of kitchen supplies. The beds were great, the outdoor showers were amazing after long hot beach days. A short (but hilly) walk to Cruz Bay for wonderful dining! If you don’t do well with stairs this property isn’t for you, but other wise wonderful. .

Open kitchen & family areas were okay. Personal pool was great as well as the fantastic views! Close proximity to Cruz Bay is a big plus but be prepared to hike some hills. Big drawback is A/C units are only in the two bedroom areas so gathering together during hot weather is difficult. There is no trash service provided & guests are asked to carry it downtown to a public receptacle.

We had the most wonderful stay! The location was absolutely perfect — close to everything yet still peaceful and relaxing. The host truly thought of everything; the home was fully stocked with all the essentials and so many thoughtful extras (reef safe sunscreen, towels and chairs). It looked exactly like the photos — if not better! Picture perfect from start to finish. We would 100% stay here again.

Hidden Gem!

We had an amazing stay at the Frank Bay house! The pictures do not capture the great amenities of this place which include a 3 level open air concept, a private pool, two comfortable bedrooms with AC, and a short walk to Cruz Bay. Also appreciate how helpful the property manager Tammy was during our stay! Looking forward to renting here again!

Exceeded expectations

We loved this house. LOVED IT! Views are incredible. Open air living space and kitchen, air conditioned comfy bedrooms and a large clean pool. Walking distance to everything, just know that there are steep hills in St John so be prepared with good shoes. Pictures don’t do this home justice.

I wasn't sure about this open-air living concept when we booked this but it turned out to be the most unique experience. Highly recommend adding it to your bucket list! No walls, windows...just ocean breezes and great views! The main living areas are under roof so you are protected from any brief showers. The bedrooms are air conditioned and comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed.The pool is amazing! There are other homes close by but the lush vegetation provides privacy. There are many levels to this home so be prepared to do lots of stairs...the best justification for lounging hours in the pool :) This home is in a great location, walking distance to restaurant's and shops. Terrific little get away!!

The views from this property are just stunning! Sitting on the open living area and watching the sunset was prime! I’m giving it 5 stars because beauty, location and communication were exactly as described. Here’s the minor downfalls… the second room where I slept had ants crawling all over the walls. My little boy got bites all over his back the first night (poor guy). Then because of the amazing views, it’s tucked up in lush gorgeous trees that are home to bats and bugs that make noises most of the night. Haha we turned the fans on all night, turned on white noise on our phones, and used ear plugs to sleep. So these are items the property doesn’t have much control over but just wanted to make people aware. Also you NEED a 4x4 vehicle to get to the property. The hill is crazy! Haha

The location is very convenient to Cruz Bay and both ferry docks.The view from the property, overlooking Pillsbury Sound toward the east end of St. Thomas is breathtaking.The kitchen is well stocked and great for meal preparation if you wish to eat in.The private pool is luxurious and a relaxing way to end each day.Everything about our week at this beautiful property was wonderful.
