Great View
My stay was short but sweet. The hosts were extremely accommodating with great communication. The property was well equipped with everything needed. During this trip I was elated that the property was solar powered. The island was experiencing frequent power outages so having air conditioning throughout my stay was AMAZING, to say the least. Thank you so much! I'm looking forward to my next visit.

Perfect location
The property and views were amazing and so was our host. Christy was always available when needed and answered all questions promptly. The jeep rental was a must, explored the island on our own time and never had to worry about a taxi. Our driver Pnut that Christy had pick us up and drop us off at the airport was also amazing and fun! We really enjoyed our week!

Nice place to settle for nine days. Relatively close to Havensight and town. Definitely need a vehicle. We rented the Jeep from Christy which was super convenient. The view from the balcony is what we enjoyed most watching the cruise ships arriving and departing.

Extraordinarily beautiful! Awesome alternative to resort vacationing.. When it’s time to relax, we were completely off the grid. However, everything is a short Jeep ride away. The views are amazing from the balcony, and the interior was relaxing and clean. Big people will struggle in the shower, but at least the water stays very warm. I definitely recommend renting the Jeep!! It’s almost impossible to get around without a reliable mode of transportation…preferably an SUV. Our host was very gracious. If we had a question, it was answered immediately. Stephanie picked us up, and was a plethora of information! We loved our stay here! Great way to spend our anniversary!! Can’t wait to return…

A True Island Experience
We absolutely loved everything about our stay. The house was clean and fully equipped with everything we needed and more. The view on the way there and at the house were breathtaking. The commute was a little intimidating but my husband was driving like a local in no time. The Jeep is a must have to travel the island and really get the island experience. Lots of great local food options were close by as well. We will definitely book again when we return. Christy and Dan are amazing hosts.

Amazing Property! Christy was a breeze to communicate with. This is the ideal property if you’re looking for somewhere secluded with a stunning view. Watching the sunrise to birds chirping. Very easy commute to anywhere on the island. Absolutely loved our stay and would highly recommend this property!

Fantastic View, Glass-fronted hillside Studio
All other reviews are accurate, as is the listing! Clean place, great view, lots of thoughtful and useful items, safe neighborhood, and we also rented the Jeep, which was a good thing because the drive up to the rental from the main road is not for the faint of heart or the low of bumper. We arranged for airport pickup/dropoff and the ride from the airport to the rental with Christian was helpful in orienting ourselves, witnessing left-hand drive, and hearing recommendations from a local. This is the perfect rental for what it is, a small place with a beautiful view for two people. It's a studio with a small shower/bathroom, very little privacy. If you travel light and are a confident driver, waking up here and walking out on to the porch with that view is completely worth it. Hearing the coqui frogs and chickens adds to its charm, and the birding from the porch is fantastic. FYI you cannot realistically walk anywhere from here, despite what Google says.

Summer Getaway
Pleasant And secluded property with beautiful view of the deck. Stay has every accommodation needed for a simple getaway. Check in process easy and host very attentive to all needs. Gave many recommendations for food and beachs, all of which were great! Enjoy the offered pick up/drop off service at the airport. Also rented the Jeep which is highly recommended. Location is pretty centralized and only takes 15–20 minutes at most to get to anywhere on the island. Would recommend checking to see when cruises are coming to port and plan those days for St. Johns or BVI day trips. Would definitely recommend to friends and family or stay again if our journey takes us back to the Virgin Islands.

Super accommodations.
The property was exactly as described in the listing. The property was very clean. Quite setting - except for the rooster crowing each morning, but that is part of the ambiance of the Island. Good central location, close to the magnificent beaches on the island, restaurants. Beautiful view from the deck of the Caribbean. Hostess was extremely helpful.

Four day getaway
Overall, it was a great stay! Even enjoyed the chickens roosting in the tree right outside, although the 2:30 AM wakeup calls (roosters) was an experience until I got use to them. Location was sited 1/2 way to everything important and found it fairly easy to navigate around the island once I got use to the St.Thomas Freeway.

We really enjoyed being out of the hustle and bustle of the city life. Our unit was very clean, sunsets were beautiful and the owners reside right above us and were working on the other rental unit while we were there. They were very friendly and honestly cared about your stay. We rented their jeep from them, which Jermaine, picked us up at air port and Christine took us back to air port. No hassle with rental companies!. We snorkled every day driving to many beaches away from the most popular beaches. All beaches at St. Thomas and St. Johns were beautiful! Highly recommend this usint for your St. Thomas vacation!

About the host

Hosted by Christy Parkins

Host profile image
I have lived in the Virgin Islands since 1999. My husband and I absolutely love it here. We both truly believe vacations and time with family and friends are the most important things in life. We are happy to help you plan any activities and answer any questions about what to do on island. We own a boat charter company (Caribbean Blue Boat Charters) and Jeep tour company (Island Life Jeep Tours) if you are interested in learning more about them, feel free to ask. We also offer a new bikini blue Rubicon Jeep for rent, on site. We want you to fall in with love St. Thomas and have an incredible experience in the islands!

Why they chose this property

Very centrally located to everything on island. 7 mins from Havensite shopping and restaurants. 10 mins to downtown Charlotte Amalie. 25 mins from the airport (Depending on time of day) Cruise ship days have high traffic. 20 mins to Red Hook Ferry (to St. John). 7 mins from a grocery store (Moe's) 15 mins from Cost U Less (similar to Sam's Club). Abi Beach and Lime Tree Beach are a 5 min drive.

Very Important to Note: There are 12 stairs to your front door. Owners live in the home above the space. But, the studio is completely private with private parking. At night you will hear Coki frogs and in the mornings you will hear roosters. Yes, I did say roosters. LOL. This is normal all over the island. We actually love the sounds and are very used to them now, but it can be different for those that are not used to it. If you don’t like the nature noises you can play background sleeping music.

What makes this property unique

Jeep Rubicon on site available for rent. Be aware we drive on the left with American Cars. Must be 26 to rent the Jeep. Must provide major credit card to reserve. Taxi’s will bring you to the house as well, but taxi's are somewhat expensive on island and we do not have uber or lyft. Be aware: Not all areas of the island will Taxi's want to pick up or drop off. (Ask us for our taxi drivers number if you prefer taxi.)
