Walkable, Relaxing, and Close to Everything!

We spent 10 incredible days at this rental and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The location is ideal—just a short walk to Cruz Bay, where we enjoyed great restaurants, shops, and easy access to water activities like snorkeling and boat tours. The property was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything we needed for a relaxing stay. The hosts were responsive and helpful with local tips. Highly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy the best of St. John without needing a car every day!

Close to cruz and comfortable

Visiting St John for the beaches and the Beach to Beach swim event. This unit was close to town, quiet and we enjoyed ourselves. I wanted a week of open water swimming and relaxation and we found a nice place to stay. We decided to not rent a car becausee st john relativly small island with lotsmof taxis/safari trucks. For most this doesnt work and i am sure next time we will rent a car. But no regrets. If you arent up for a little 10 min walk up the hill get a car. Unit met allnour needs and manager was fantastic.

Overall, it was fine. The front gate and a lamp never got fixed, and the furniture in the picture is not the furniture in the apartment. It is a good location and a short walk to town. It was adequate for what we wanted.

one week

Our stay at Blue Marlin in February 2025 was very good. The king size bed was very comfortable. It was great to have to have two bathrooms in this small unit. The laundry set up was very convenient (shared with one other unit). The kitchen and bbq were both very well equipped. The unit supplied beach chairs and beach coolers, and we used those on our beach trips.We had some issues on our first day (key sticking in the front door, TV remote not working and damaged front gate), but Jackie very promptly corrected them. We appreciated the very quick service. We spent lots of time just looking at the water from the kitchen windows and from the private front porch. Overall,if we visited St. John again, we would stay again.

Great location to come home to

Stayed on St John for 12 days and Blue Marlin was a great home base. Space is clean, comfortable, 2 bathrooms, and room to relax. Easy access to Cruz Bay by car or 4 minute walk. Enjoyed morning coffee watching car ferry from the porch and snorkeled in Frank Bay a couple times.

Perfect getaway in a great location!

Stayed at Blue Marlin in May. It was a terrific property - clean, plenty of room, AC - in a perfect location! There's a nice view from the living room and porch looking out over Frank Bay. Two minute walk down the hill to Gallows Point (coffee shop and general store) or go another three minutes and you're in Cruz Bay - having an amazing cocktail at DRINK ST JOHN!

Great Stay

We enjoyed the property’s closeness to downtown. Having two full bathrooms was a perk. The property was exactly as described from the ad. When we needed things from Jackie she was prompt and communicative. Overall a great experience and plan to come back to Saint John.

Great Location!

Just returned from another trip to St. John, it was a great week. Our first stay at Blue Marlin was good, the apartment is in an ideal spot for walking to Cruz Bay dining, and shopping. The listing is very accurate and the unit is spotless. Having a parking spot was also key! Jackie was very responsive to any communication. The unit is well equipped with all you need for the beach and preparing snacks. We already booked our stay for next year.

Perfect location

The property is just up the hill from Cruz Bay, far enough away that you do not hear the bar crowds at night, but not so far as to need/want a car/taxi even after having a large meal with several drinks. The property is small but has two full bathrooms, A/C, towels for the beach and bathrooms, pots, pans, 25oz. drip coffee maker, microwave, toaster oven, ice cube trays, cooking range, but no oven. King-size bed, a couch, two reclining chairs around the television, a four-person kitchen table, satellite TV, and reliable, wireless internet. The property manager was friendly, and prompt with replies and warned us the evening before a several-hour-long pending, island-wide power outage. 10/10, would recommend.

Blue Marlin

Blue Marlin provided what we were looking for: a clean home base from which to explore the island, kitchen facilities to prepare meals, proximity to the town and transportation. The property management team were quite organized and helpful, and communication was prompt and clear. They met us at the ferry, gave us a brief orientation to the town and delivered us to the unit. Livingroom furniture is much more comfortable than the bamboo set shown. It's a 2 bath unit (not 1 as shown). The newer bath (shown) is lovely; the master bath (not shown) was clean but needs updating. We also felt the steps from the bedroom area (not seen in the pictures) were hazardous in the dark of night; a plug-in night might help. Over all, we enjoyed our stay at Blue Marlin.
