Definitely recommend! ##### Katie P.

It’s hard not to when you’re in St. John, but this house had everything that we needed and more. The view was great. The screens worked and we’re not broken letting bugs in, the pool was clean, and the host provided some of our basic needs upon arrival (paper towels, bottled water, ice) along with coolers and chairs and beach towels. The generator was essential, as the power went out one night for a couple hours, and it kicked right on. Highly recommend! ##### Cameron P.

Villa was comfortable for 7, very convenient to Cruz and the beaches, and very nice views from the capacious covered porch. Host was great. Lack of AC in living room / kitchen wasn't a problem for us in January, but might be in hotter weather. Overall a great experience, would rent again! ##### Vince D.

Cons would be it def needs some updating and TLC. 2 Twin bedroom and futon room are completely separate from each other and the only access to both is an outside stairway. It's not ideal for small children. Overall I would stay again. ##### Levi F.

The home is located in the Chocolate Hole area, super easy to get to, amazing view and very quiet. The overall experience was wonderful! We were supplied with coolers and chairs which made our trip easy. The pool is just the perfect size. Very convenient to get to downtown Cruz Bay and groceries. We would stay there again. Cons: The home could use some furniture updating, definitely bring your own paper towels and tall kitchen garbage bags and the downstairs bedroom sliding doors did not lock. ##### Michelle R. Stayed 6 nights in Oct 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Stephanie M. 5 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### St. John Getaway This was our first time on St. John which is a beautiful island with lots of hills. We always felt very safe. Gorgeous views of Chocolate Hole, a steep one mile hike downhill (not always with sidewalks). This is a great house for two couples. The other two bedrooms are outside and around the house down a set of stairs. One room downstairs was missing a screen door and thus you have to use the AC for air flow. You must rent a car, both for safety and access of the island but also to take the trash and recycling away every day. ##### Stephanie M.

Private location. Tons of lush landscaping and flowers. The two bedrooms on the main floor were very spacious. Great open main living space.

Upstairs and Main bottom level bedrooms were big. The pool was nice to have especially with the 5 year old. We could use it to keep her busy as well as cool off in the afternoon. Nice view and it was fun watching the iguanas in the trees ##### Paul G. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### sostena r. 26 Mar 2019 #### Had a fabulous time back in St. John! This was the first time back to St. John since the hurricanes, having gone there for nearly 16 years with my family. Also, the first time renting a house, as we always stayed at the Maho camps before it closed. This was great. The house was perfect in all ways - great location, great views and super comfortable. We were met at the ferry with our car and although we needed a help with tires mid-week, Curtis responded immediately and fixed things in a way that never interfered with our beach time. So great to be back on the island and look forward to our next trip! ##### sostena r. Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Patrick G. 9 Jun 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Family trip to St. John We loved our stay at Claudia's villa. The views are as advertised and are outstanding. It's a close drive to the busy and fun Cruz Bay area, and the bedrooms are spacious and beautiful. It's a challenging driveway to navigate but we got used to that and realize now that's just part of staying on the island. The downstairs bedrooms are only accessed via an exterior stair so they felt somewhat disconnected and the kitchen is just a bit dated but overall we loved our stay and would definitely return in the future. Claudia and her support staff are very responsive and courteous and were wonderful hosts. Highly recommended! ##### Patrick G. Stayed 6 nights in May 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Katherine V. 12 May 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Overall great property This was a overall a great property at a reasonable price with nice views. We loved that beach towels and beach chairs were provided as well as kitchenware (a few dishes were dirty, but it would have been easy for cleaning folks to miss that so not a huge deal). The only downside is that right now the house is for sale. One of the reasons we chose this property was for the privacy, but one day a pest control worker showed up unannounced, then a realtor called us and asked if she could show the house on a certain day and time, which we agreed to, but then an additional realtor came later that afternoon without warning to show the house to some other people while I was getting in the shower. Still overall good property and you really don't need the A/C (even though they have it) because if you let the breeze flow the house in the evenings it's quite nice. ##### Katherine V.

It was the perfect spot to relax and so close to the food markets and Cruz Bay as well as to the road to the beaches. The cool breeze was always blowing and only one night we had to put the air conditioning on. The only disappointment we found was in the kitchen. All of the 4 stove top gas jets could not be regulated, all you got was a flame at full blast. And yet we found it took forever to boil a pot of water? The oven worked ok, but think it’s time to replace the stove. There was a shortage of flatware, which we had to have the manager get additional for us. The pots and especially the pans could use an upgrade, perhaps going with teflon to make it easier for guests to clean up. We did discover a delightful beach to swim and snorkel 5 minutes from the villa off East Chocolate Hole Road for those days when you didn’t want to drive up the beach road. ##### Joseph S.

The location was great, easy to get to, and the wrap around porch was just beautiful. ##### Melissa D.

This is a very comfortable and clean property, we absolutely loved our stay here and will book again when we return to the island! The covered balcony offers a great spot to enjoy the view while eating and escaping the sun, and the deck and pool area are the perfect place to relax after a morning at the beach. It's less than a 5 minute drive to the grocery store, and town isn't much further - perfect location. ##### Chris Stayed 6 nights in Apr 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Rebecca B. 27 Mar 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Management staff was very helpful Due to some airline issues, we arrived later than our young adult children that were traveling from a different city. Myrtle went above and beyond making sure they got off the ferry and arranged a cab to take them to the grocery store and then up to the house. It was much appreciated to decrease my stress level! The house worked out well for us, having older children, although I was a little worried my 12 year old son wouldn’t want to be so far away in the downstairs bedroom (with no interior entrance to the main house). He was fine though and enjoyed his private room 😊. We had an issue with water and they responded right away. It’s good to know ahead that they advise not to drink the water. My guess is that is the same in most of the rental homes. The view was amazing. It was close to town but far enough away that we felt very private. As for most rentals we saw, be prepared for a very steep driveway! ##### Rebecca B.

The water pressure in the showers is low, but this is typical. It was difficult for cabs to get up to us, but we had a rental car, so no problem. We did have a problem with one of the showers, the maintenance person was there and fixed things within an hour. It was so nice to have the grill and tables and chairs on the deck. We had a lovely relaxing time. ##### Alison J.

Communication with pickup was perfect. House is beautifully maintained with amazing views. Beds are very comfortable and the house is not too big for 3 people but can easily accommodate far more. Easy proximity to Cruz bay. Would rent again without hesitation ##### jonathan l. Stayed 10 nights in Dec 2021 ---
