Birthday Vacation
This little apartment was wonderful. Stocked well, very clean, air-conditioned, everything worked. It was my birthday and the hosts left some very nice birthday notes and a bottle of champagne. The location was great, close to a lot of restaurants and the ferry to St John, and the boats going to the BVIs. Communication with the hosts was perfect. We will be booking again for next year.

Great Value
Neat as a pin, beautiful view, quaint, well provisioned with everything you need for your stay, responsive host, ferry and beaches nearby, small bathroom but vanity in the bedroom works well, wonderful deck overlooking Secret Harbor, 4 minutes from groceries. This is for independent travelers who like authentic experience! You will have an occasional ant or mosquito because of the open air nature and grounds surrounded by trees but this didn’t bother us a bit!
