Grand Bay is the best location, convenient to ferry dock, shuttles , shopping and restaurants. This unit has quality furniture and amenities, sheets that actually stay on the bed corners for the whole week. All the beach supplies you could need too!
Island Therapy was amazing! Great property and even better room! Rented a jeep through the property management and it was excellent. This will be the only place I stay when I come to St. John. Thank you William! Until next time!!!
Island Therapy proved to be a great choice for our first visit to St. John. The unit was very clean, organized, and had an excellent view overlooking Cruz Bay. William was very informative and helpful throughout the reservation process.
The studio had everything we needed and was very clean. The extra beach accessories were very much appreciated. The view is amazing and the location to town was extremely helpful. The only thing I wish it had was a bit larger refrigerator. Thank you for providing a great place to relax and unwind.
Location is outstanding! Less than 5 minutes to Cruz Bay. Suite is as clean and mostly as advertised. We found the bed a little too soft and woke up daily with sore backs. We could not use the safe as someone must have locked it previously with safe door open so it was open but locked with someone’s code. Parking spaces are very tight due to garage support pillar placement.

Thank you for your comments as we use this input to improve the stay of future guests. We definitely apologize for the safe being locked when you arrived.The Grande Bay front desk or our local property manager could have opened the safe, if they were contacted. The kingsize bed/mattress was installed less than 12 mos ago. The mattress & frame are Saatva, which is considered a high quality brand. Understand the hardness of a specific mattress is personal choice. I'm glad we were able to provide you with a parking space. The parking spaces are narrow, and something we cannot change. We appreciate your input. Thank you.
This is our second stay at grand Bay and we love this condo just as much as a previous visit. Owner had everything we needed and has a great PDF of info all about staying on St. John. We will definitely come back to this unit when available for our stays in the future.
My husband and I had a great stay! It was in an excellent location and the room was beautiful. The view from the balcony was amazing. We would highly recommend staying here! St. John was awesome!
There was a big community event in town went on for three nights until 3am. Be careful booking in march… or bring ear plugs. Ps not owners fault obviously!
Otherwise place was great!
We had a wonderful stay at Island Therapy ! The host, William, was exceptional – he maintained great communication throughout the process and even went above and beyond to plan a special surprise for us, which made the experience even more memorable. The property itself was fantastic, offering a beautiful view and a perfect location right by the town, making it easy to explore. It was a comfortable and well-maintained space, and I truly felt at home. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a great getaway!
My husband and I stayed at the property for a wonderful week. The location is perfect for a walk to Cruz Bay. We enjoyed having our morning coffee out on the deck. The view is PERFECT. There was plenty of room for the two of us, and it had all the amenities we needed. Wish we could have stayed longer! Would definitely come back and stay again.
Great location. Condo was very clean and newly painted and decorated. Nicely appointed with all utensils, pots, pans and glasses/mugs. There is a hot plate which was very useful for small cooking. We were extremely happy with this condo and highly recommend it.
Was just like described on-line. Nicely decorated and plenty of things included. Did not do any meals in room but saw there were a lot of small appliances. Convenient location. Pretty property.

Hi Jan, Thank you for the positive review. Please come back and visit again, and please let your friends know. Thank you. William
We LOVED our stay at Island Therapy! The property was beautiful and the view was amazing! William was great. He checked in prior to travels and had open communication during our stay. Tropical Storm Ernesto caused us to miss our first night and William was willing to accommodate! He went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. I have already recommended the property to one of my friends!
As a solo traveler from Florida, I felt safe throughout my time traveling. Condo is fabulous! Clean, comfortable, close to everything, the view is amazing and the communication with the owners is great!
I was not disappointed in anyway!
Thank you so much!
Good location to everything. The place was perfect. ...maybe check the fridge. Wasn't keeping food very cold. But we barely used it so it was a non issue. We would stay there again if we come back..

We are addicted to the clear azure water, beaches, and love to sail and dive. We own several properties and welcome you to come stay and have the vacation of a lifetime. Bill and Laurie Potratz
