Great location

We love being in Cruz Bay. Easy walking to restaurants and shops. This unit has a great view of the bay. Beds were comfortable and bathrooms clean and updated. We used Starfish market grocery delivery. We do not rent a car bc taxis are so easily accessible in town.

I highly recommend staying at this villa. The location cannot be beat - right in the heart of Cruz Bay. The villa has all upgraded appliances, the furniture is very comfortable, and plenty of space - there were 6 adults in our party. We would definitely stay there again in the future. Thanks!

Relaxation awaits!!

We came to St. John for a wedding and needed accommodations near the events that were planned. This listing hit the mark! A bonus was the amazing views and a very comfortable place to unwind between festivities. We loved the convenience of the parking garage for our rental vehicle. The storage locker was well stocked with all the fun things needed for our day at the beach.

Clean, great location walkable to shops, bars and restaurants, across the street from the beach. Nice pool with lounge chairs. Would definitely stay again! FYI VRBO listing states meet and greet at dock which is no longer available but condo is easy to find by walking through shopping area. Be prepared to handle your luggage.
