We had a wonderful stay at Fish Tales. What a special property! The views were stunning and we enjoyed being out on the deck so much. The kids loved the mini pool and that they had the downstairs to themselves each with their own bed. We cooked every meal in the kitchen except for one dinner out. It worked well. The master bedroom had beautiful views and was so relaxing. We thought being able to walk out our door and hike down to Reef Bay Beach was pretty cool! One day we walked from the home down to the beach and connected up with the Reef Bay Trail, great adventure! Seeing flamingoes in the wild at Frances Bay was a highlight also.

The house was rustic and charming, just what we were looking for. Plenty of room for my family to spread out. The house was stocked with everything we needed for our trip, and it was very clean. I miss the incredible views. One morning we saw a rainbow over the water from the back deck.The pool was nice and warm. The host was very responsive and answered all my questions in a timely manner. The location is a short drive to the beaches, as well as town. I would definitely recommend this house. ##### Robyn T.

We had a 7 month old and a 2 year old with us as well and it worked out great for them. Everything was very clean and well organized. The views were amazing and the pool was perfect for the kiddos. The walk to the beach was very simple. For our two year old, the bed downstairs with the trundle pull out worked perfectly. Plus, she felt like a big girl! Tammy was always available to talk to and so very helpful. Would definitely stay again! ##### Jamie S.

The house was perfect for us with kids, and Fish tales is also the cleanest property we have ever rented in the islands. No musty odors and extra comfortable beds. We cooked breakfasts and dinners at home in a surprisingly well appointed kitchen, most places have just a few pots and never a sharp knife but Fish tales had everything we needed including an extra clean Weber gas grill. To be fair we spent most daylight hours exploring all of the beautiful beaches, but our time at the house exceeded expectations. Service by the owner and our greeter were exceptional. ##### Andy C.

We loved our stay here and the views are even better than expected! I was worried about the fact that there is no ac unit in the main living area ( both bed rooms have ac) but the breeze with the windows open keep the room very comfortable. With that being said we spent all of our time outside on the decks anyway. The pool is more like an over sized swim spa but we loved it so much we are now looking into purchasing one for our owe home. We also loved the surround sound system (indoor/outdoor). We would definitely stay here again. ##### jackie c.

We decided to go to St Johns for the Love City Country Fest and we were so pleased to stay in such a quite area. It was so comfortable to come back to this home after a long day at the beach. All the amenities FISHBAY home has to offer were there. We couldn't of asked for anything better. Each morning we would venture out on the roads for a good workout hiking up and down the trails and roads. We would then come home and jump in pool to cool off then go and relax at the beaches. We felt so at home here and cant wait to go back. The week we were there flew by so fast. ##### Linda C. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bridget G. 14 Mar 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Gorgeous St John Sunsets Fish Tales was exactly as described! It’s a cozy beach cottage that you can walk into and feel right at home. It’s not fancy but it’s so very charming! The back deck is cut into the rock and the plantings attract hummingbirds that you can watch while hanging out! Fish Tales is about 15 minutes away from Cruz Bay so if you’re looking for privacy and quietness this is the place for you! The roads between Cruz Bay and Fish Tales are not for the faint of heart but boy do they offer up some stunning views of the island! If you think you might want to get a taxi from Cruz Bay back to Fish Tales, make sure you have the gps coordinates or be able to give exact directions! The downstairs bedroom is an ample size and easily accommodated our two kids (11 yo boy and 13 yo girl). They had enough space and privacy and the room temperature stays much cooler than the upstairs. The sunset views from the deck are magical - be prepared for that setting sun to warm up the upstairs of the house! It can be quite warm in the evening in the upstairs bedroom and living area but once the sun is down and it’s time for bed the temperature cools down and it’s ok for sleeping. The pool is tiny but it was just the right size for cooling off. It fit the four of us just fine - the besta time for pool time is in the mid-afternoon. Any other time and it might be chilly due to the shade. The kitchen had everything that we needed and the grill worked well. We loved our time here!! ##### Bridget G.

I stayed here with my college son and middle school daughter and my husband. There was plenty of room and we were able to grill and cook our own meals. It was a welcome retreat each day after hiking and snorkeling on the island. If I could give it more stars I would. ##### Eva R.

It is easy to get to, would recommend 4 wheel drive for St. John. The breeze through the house is wonderful and there are fans in each room. AC in both bedrooms works fine. It is a short hike from the house down to Reef Bay and then if you are adventurous over to the reef bay trail. We went from there all the way over it little lameshur and snorkeled and came back within a day. The views are amazing! The neighborhood is clean and safe and there are areas to walk. The property manager and the person who meets you at the ferry and drives with you to the property are very knowledgeable and nice and will take care of any issues. Thanks to the property manager for taking care of us when we were delayed a day because we missed our flight! We had a blast hiking and going to beaches all over the island and looking at the stars at night out on the deck. Highly recommended!! ##### Matt K.

The location was nice and quiet with a nice view of the bay and almost-daily rainbows. There is a pond down below with various ducks and wading birds ( and lucky for us a Scarlet Ibis)!!! The cottage had a nice homey and relaxing feel. We had everything we needed to cook or grill with. Coolers to pack lunch for the day and beach towels. Also had a spotting scope, which came in handy for watching the Scarlet Ibis. The pool was nice to come back to after a day of hiking. Everyone at Fish Bay was very prompt in answering any questions we had. A special shout out to Dayna for trying to keep up with our incoming flight being delayed several times,( just catching the last ferry to St.John), and helping us out on our hike!! We traveled all over the Island and were always glad to come back to Fish Bay. Would highly recommend staying here. ##### kim c.

Our stay at Fish Tails was absolutely wonderful!! The home was clean, comfortable, and we had everything needed to enjoy a delicious Thanksgiving meal for the holiday. Communication with Tammy was spot on, and we would definitely recommend this stay to anyone coming to St. John. ##### Brent B.

The rental team was very supportive during our stay. ##### Matthew H.

Perhaps I might choose a location closer to Cruz Bay next time, but we thoroughly enjoyed our time at Fish Tales in Fish Bay. We are an adventuresome clan, so this was a bit away from town activities, but if you want quiet and private, this is for you. We never did find the walking pathway to Reef Bay, but honestly, we didn't look very hard. I am sure it's there somewhere. The cottage had everything we needed. Well stocked for anything that you may want to cook. The small sitting pool was certainly helpful to cool us down while spending time on the deck Each sleeping area has A/C, but not throughout the whole cottage. That wasn't a big deal, as we spend many days at the public beaches. Kids figured out how to blue tooth their music playlists with the speaker system in the house and outside deck. We loved that! The place was clean and well cared for. Upon arrival, the welcome lady explained about keeping all food put away, and daily trash removal. Honestly, we didn't really have any issues with any critters looking for food. Our stay at Fish Bay was pleasant and accommodating. Very comfortable! ##### Amy H.

The size was perfect for the 4 of us and had plenty of room on the deck to hang out in the evenings. We cooked on the grill and had breakfast most mornings at home. There were only 2 minor issues that we had to contact Tammy about and she took care of them in a matter of hours on the same day. Tammy also stepped up and made sure we had transportation from the ferry to the house since our Jeep we were renting was not available until the day after we arrived. ##### Tim T.
