Online pictures had a king bed upstairs and when we arrived it was a living area with a Murphy bed. Great space, but not as pictured. It may work for some but would have a been a problem if we had another couple with us. (We were a group of seven). Our stay was interrupted by a 48 hour power outage for the entire island. Unusual in length but not in occurrence for St John. We were very surprised that a villa this size did not have a generator. If you wear a CPAP, as do two in our party, bring some sort of battery. Not having electricity we understand, but this meant not having water or being able to flush toilets for 48 hours. There did not appear to be a contingency for this. We went and bought bottled water and guest services eventually brought three gallons to us (remember seven people). We also “borrowed” water from the pool. There was no emergency kit that was stated on the check in list. We had one flashlight but no batteries. And only one bedroom had windows that opened which would have been nice when we didn’t have air. But we couldn’t utilize the nice breeze to cool down because the windows didn't open. All that said, the property itself is superbly maintained and has a wonderful westward view. We come to St. John a lot and this is probably the first area we would stay a second time in (albeit probably in another unit with a generator or power wall) The people of the island were wonderful as always even with the added stress of the power outage.
Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2026
