Every view is a postcard and looks better than the pictures online! The house was beautiful and was everything we were expecting and more. I can't say enough about how great it was to meet Saga and have him help us with so many things. He went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our trip. Tuna was a great addition as well! Having the dinghy was an added plus. The private beach is beautiful. I can't say enough great things about the place. I would stay there again in a heartbeat. Next time I would fly into Tortola though instead of St. Thomas as it's easier to ferry over to Jost. And I would plan better for groceries as Cathyrn mentions in her house notes. Otherwise a fabulous trip and good times on Jost. ##### Kelly S.

The grounds are rugged but every step is worth it to the private beach and/or the "tub" deck. Our hosts were gracious, Saga was attentive, and Tuna kept an eye on us. We'll be back for sure! ##### Tod J.

What a beautiful island and place to relax and enjoy! Saga was an amazing help with everything! The villa was perfect! I would recommend renting a car. The driveway is quite rocky and can be difficult to navigate if wearing flip flops and sandals and very dark at night after dinner out. Wonderful experience overall! ##### Catherine L.

We stayed in the Great House Villa in early June 2023 and the weather was perfect every day. The views are magnificent, and the property extremely private and secluded, making for a totally restful vacation. Saga the caretaker was helpful and kind and showed us how to make fresh passion fruit juice. The resident kitty cat Tuna is loving and attentive—-always looking for a pat or a lap to purr in. We had a fabulous visit to Jost Van Dyke! ##### Sue and Tim M.

Amazing place and we hope to return. We spent our time basking in the sun, watching catamarans sail and pelicans fly by. We also used the dinghy to get to Taboo (and loved Bubbly Pool), kayaked in the pristine water, walked to the beach and played with Tuna. Saga helped us so much. He found us a Jeep rental and we loved the adventure of driving to Great Harbour and White Bay. Saga was also available for questions or concerns. The grounds with vibrant flowers and magical butterflies were beautiful. ##### Ivette B.

The trip did require deliberate planning ahead, but all the guidance and recommendations provided by the owner steered us perfectly in the right direction. Saga, the caretaker for the property, was an absolute gem! He made sure we were well equipped and had all the insights to make our excursions around the island seamless. We felt like we had our own private piece of paradise and are already planning when to return! Note: this property would be difficult to navigate for anyone with mobility challenges. ##### Arenda Stayed 5 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mark K. 26 Jan 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### The Great House is Truly Great Our family used to own this property and it is a great location and very private. It was awesome 20 years ago when we sold it. The new owners have totally upgraded and expanded the house and garden including repairs after Hurricane Irma. Our family stay for a week was fantastic and the house has great views, near great beaches and lots of outdoor water activities. The caretaker Saga was also great helping with local logisitics and communication. We hope to come and stay again sometime in the future. ##### Mark K.

We loved this spot from the moment we arrived! We found a well appointed villa with unbelievable views and casual island elegance. Our party of 3 had fun snorkeling, exploring and comparing rum punches at the nearby bars - all by dinghy. Even preparing meals was fun in the adorable caribbean kitchen. The caretaker (Saga) is such a gem! He ensures all runs smoothly and also shares the bounty of tropical fruits and fresh vegetables he grows on the property. We hope to get back soon to this very special place. ##### June K.

My wife and I, as well as our daughters (16 & 18) all really needed a relaxing vacation—and we found exactly what we were looking for! The views from the house are spectacular; so much so that there were several days during our trip when we never left the property. Saga, the house manager, stopped by every single day to check on us and to see if there was anything we needed. I shared that we were running low on coffee and the next thing I knew there was a bag of coffee beans waiting for us on the kitchen counter. The house was very clean and well organized. Truly a five-star spot and we’re already looking forward to returning again soon (we hope)! ##### Seth M.

Truly the best property we have rented. The owners were wonderful to communicate with and as other reviewers had said, Saga the property care taker, took amazing care of us. From the moment we arrived at the private dock, after a trip over from Tortola, with a great water taxi company the owners recommended, we were instantly on vacation. We we’re so excited with the house and the dingy rental was so fun. The path down to the private beach was a lovely walk and the beach was yet another amazing feature to the property. Sage brought us fresh fruit almost daily, and helped us out with taxis and food recommendations. We are already working on our next trip to this wonderful property. ##### Dawn R. Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kent E. 26 Nov 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Magical Time in a Magnificent Place We are always mesmerized by the calming affect this island has on us. We needed to “Get Away” and GreatHouse Villa just added to the immediate decompressing feeling you get as you arrive at the Villa, walk down the steps to the inviting pool deck, and the view across to Tortola. Although we arrived in a “Down Pour” (they say about 5 inches of rain) Saga, who took great care of us, met us on the dock and quickly swept us up the hill to the Villa. Very comfortable setting, with expansive sea views and sea breezes to cool the day. The house is equipped with AC, although we never turned it on, the house and bedroom kept cool with the breeze. We were lulled to sleep by the crashing waves just outside our bedroom. We arose to beautiful sunrises, and the nights were lit by the seemingly enormous full moon. Saga, who saw to every detail, even bringing us the harvests of the property, passion fruit (a delightful juice) egg plant, and the many beautiful flowers, was a treat. Tuna, the resident cat, is adorable, and loves to be around people. A survivor of Hurricane Irma, she loves to play and have her belly rubbed. The island, for those that haven’t been, can be a life changing event. The people, the beauty, and an amazing Villa, make for an adventure that will keep you longing to return. ##### Kent E.

The villa is even better than the pics and description…beautiful views from every room and balcony. We rented the dingy and used it to visit nearby islands and snorkel with our daughters. We also decided to get a rental car to get to some venues on the other side the island like Soggy Dollar, Sydney’s Peace and Love etc. Saga who is the villa care taker was super friendly and knowledgeable and got us some fresh fruit (coconut and passion fruit) from the property. So lovely and peaceful from beginning to end. ##### Darcy S.

She has lush gardens, endless views, soft sea breezes, lulling sounds of the ocean and small lizards as companions. Lucky us to have visited this magical place. Hope to return! ##### Audrey E.

Having the inflatable dinghy was an added bonus, allowing us to explore the area by water and enjoy going to Foxy’s Taboo and Sandy Spit. The private beach was spectacular! Cathryn was a great communicator before check in, providing detailed information before arrival and Saga, the property manager was extremely helpful, assisting us with every need. Tuna the cat was a special visitor that stopped by daily. We loved it so much that we booked next years stay even before we checked out! The entire experience exceeded our expectations.6 ##### Diana G.

We loved Great House Villa. Beautiful home and setting. Incomparable view. And meeting Saga was a highlight of our stay in the BVI. ##### Edward M. Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Trauma Center Solutions 2 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### The best girls trip at the Great House Villa Everything about our stay at the villa was exceptional. From the booking process, to the accuracy of the photos and instructions to the ease of check in and host communication———-the trip was smooth and easy! The space is spotless and very well maintained with all the comforts of a hotel such as nice sheets, pillows and towels, great water pressure, and fantastic AC. The pool is perfection and sets this property apart from the others. By far the best part of the villa is the care and concern provided by Saga, who makes it his number 1 priority to keep each guest happy, comfortable and safe. We loved getting to know him and learn about Jost and the property history. We plan to return as soon as we can! ##### Trauma Center Solutions Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brent H. 19 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### You might not want to leave We have been coming to the Island for the last decade. This year we brought some family with us to experience it. Over the years we have stayed at a few different places throughout the years. Great House Villas, is by far the nicest, most beautiful place (the villa and grounds) we have stayed; that along with Saga getting and helping us with anything we needed or had questions about. He truly is an Island treasure! ##### Brent H.

Property was beautiful in every way. Saga was such a great help with everything. And access to the dinghy have us access to some great places on the island. ##### Joseph B.
