We were greeted with a taxi, who whisked us to Red Hook to catch the boat to St John. We were met on St John by a lovely greeter, Denise who gave us keys to a Jeep we reserved. We followed her to Hawksbill villa, a couple of miles from town. Denise explained all features of the magnificent hilltop villa, gave us tourist information, showed us highlights on a map, and made us feel welcome. The return trip was equally expertly arranged. Caribbean Villas is a top notch villa operator and I would not hesitate to book with them on St John again.

I wanted to rent a house on St. John USVI, for my family of eleven and the ladies at Caribbean…read moreVillas where great in helping me find the perfect house to meet our needs. Not only did they direct me to the right property but our reservation was the beginning of the Chinese Virus shut down for the Islands. No worries though, everyone at Caribbean Villas couldn't have been more accomodating to work with me rearranging our schedule around this crazy epidemic. We finally made our trip the first week of the opening of the USVI in September. The Property, Cinnamon was better than presented on their site. We had a couple of minor issues during the week and the local representatives where more than responsive in addressing our issues. I can't say enough good things about these folks at Caribbean Villas except we will be back! Thanks for a great job done and helping my family have a gathering of a life time.

When we arrived at Villa Papaya we noticed a few items that we needed were not there. Destination…read moreSt John was very responsive. The upper washing machine was not working and greeter said it might not be working. There was no attempt to fix it until we reported a broken step and while it was being repaired I asked if the maintenance man if he could look at the machine. He said not only would he look at it but if he could not fix it he would ask a mechanic to look it over. We got back from the beach and the machine was working! The four bedrooms are lovely and so is the pool. The view is magnificent. There was equipment for baking in the kitchen (not that we wanted to bake a bundt cake) but no potholders and the can opener was pretty old. The microwave is tiny and there is a toaster but not a toaster oven. The house is tired and in need of basic maintenance. We did suggest in the review that we were asked to fill out upon leaving, that doing a walk through after a renter leaves or the next one is coming would be helpful. There were no appliance directions, no menus from restaurants, and no guide books. I am mentioning this because we have been renting houses on St. John since 1968 and have found these items in every house we have rented. We did make the best of what we had but we were disappointed that the house was not in pristine condition.

Our own private lomo (included in the rate) met us at St Thomas airport and took us to Red Hook where we took the ferry to St John. There Albion met us, took us on a quick tour of the island, stopped at Starfish Market to pick up staples, and then on to Bluebitch Villa. "Bluebitch" is impeccably clean, spacious and has everything you'll need for a relaxing and enjoyable vacation.  A fully equipped kitchen (even a bbq), wonderful views, and a private beach that became our go-to place for a morning cup of coffee, afternoon swim or great place to read a book and watch the sun set.  We wanted to experience the culture and special spots of St. John and the information and suggestions provided were very helpful and gave us lots of ideas for our adventures around the island.   Thank you for helping create some amazing memories and a refreshing week in St. John Albion and Ann were gracious and welcoming and they made us feel like family. We'll definitely be making this our yearly vacation spot.

Perfect size and depth for families. The villa itself was recently updated so everything is new. The fitness room is a huge bonus.

We were a family of four but there is a 3rd downstairs bedroom for grandparents or a teenager who wants some privacy.

We had a large bedroom, small laundry facility, living room, kitchen, and two balcony's (one overlooking the water).

The staff was extremely accommodating; switched out our cooker bag that was rusted, brought us new beach towels, gave us extra laundry pods, etc. The cherry on top? The location was PERFECT! We were so close to all of the restaurants, bars, and shops... we only used the taxi service to get to the beaches! I will for sure be staying here in the future!!

"Beyond Our Expectations. Wonderful!"…read more What we loved about it: - Basket of fresh fruit, crackers and cheese, chips, wine waiting for us upon arrival (so we didn't have to rush out to get provisions the first evening). There were even packages of coffee in the freezer for the next morning's cup of coffee. So thoughtful! - Beautiful, beautiful grounds - landscaping, pool, patio, bacci court (yes!) - Well designed and decorated interior with dining table on the terrace overlooking Cruz Bay, kitchen open to the living area and wall of glass doors looking out onto the terrace and the bay. - Loved the two master suites - no "fighting" over the nicer bedroom -- with the en suites and open showers. Really appreciated the high-end toiletries, the big towels, and the beach towels. - Great cooking facilities. We cooked breakfast every day and dinner 5 of the 7 days we were there - used the kitchen and the grill on the patio. Ate outside every morning/evening. - Loved the pool, sitting on the terrace, lounging in the sunshine. - Mike (property manager) recommended taking a bottle of wine and some bread and cheese up the trail behind the house to the top of the hill to watch the sunset. We did this several times and each time was a delight. - Located outside Cruz Bay, it was a quick and easy drive to and from the villa. We rented from Conrad rental, which allowed free parking in Cruz Bay at their location (at least they did the week we were there). What we hated about it: - Leaving

ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE! THE ABSOLUTE WORST!…read more WARNING: DO NOT BOOK VILLA TAMARINDO! DOESN'T EVEN DESERVE ONE STAR! On July 15, 2025 I reserved Villa Tamarindo, an entire home on St. John, U.S. Virgin Islands, owned by Michael Feierabend, through Airbnb from December 23, 2025 to January 1, 2026 with a deposit of $1,380.90 for a total cost of $6,904.47. On Monday November 10, 2025, four months later, I received an email from my credit card company returning my deposit, after Michael Feierabend cancelled my reservation. Very soon after making the reservation, I had booked and paid almost $4,000.00 for Airfare in addition to $1,500.00 for a Jeep Rental, so at this point, I couldn't even change the dates without additional fees. This vacation was a graduation present for my daughter and needless to say, she was extremely devastated and disappointed since she had already seen photos of the home and was looking forward to this once in a lifetime graduation present. Feierabend suggested I "look for another home on St. John, as there must be something available," when he of all people should know that Christmas and New Year's is by far, the absolute busiest time of the year on St. John and there's not much available at all, at this now very late date, especially a house comparable to Villa Tamarindo. So much so in fact, that Airbnb sent me several other options with one being an actual empty treehouse! I really had to scramble and the best that I was able to come up with at this late date, was a crummy one bedroom condo for basically the same price as the 2 bedroom 3 beds 2 baths Villa Tamarindo home. What this comes down to is TOTAL NEGLIGENCE by Feierabend who states he received a check before my reservation, so he actually went around Airbnd and Airbo, but to notify me FOUR MONTHS LATER, a very short time before the trip at the busiest time of the year, RUINING MY 18 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER'S GRADUATION PRESENT was TOTALLY DERELICT! The least he should have done was to compensate me several thousand dollars but ALL HE HAD TO OFFER WAS A PATHETIC SORRY!! Lastly, when I complained to Airbnb, they said they were going to ban him from the site but THEY LIED AND NEVER DID! AGAIN! THE ABSOLUTE WORST! DO NOT BOOK VILLA TAMARINDO! MICHAEL FEIERABEND CANNOT BE TRUSTED!!
