We enjoyed our stay at Eco Vida and hope to be back! The pictures don't do it justice; the space is very large and the outdoor showers in 2 of the bedroom bathrooms are beautiful! The house had everything we needed for the beach and to cook dinners in. The house was very clean and comfortable. Thank you for the nice stay!

Paradise! A must stay!

We had a truly incredible time at Eco Vida! The home offered everything we could possibly need. Beautifully decorated with a picture perfect view of Coral Bay, fabulous breezes and a central location (and close to Maho!) made this the perfect home for our family. We’ll be back for sure! Thank you for being a wonderful hostess, Carley!

Convenient and beautiful location

Stayed for a week with 2 teenagers. This is a great location for getting to all the north beaches within just a few minutes, especially since we wanted to get going early before the beach parking lots filled up. It is also convenient to Coral Bay. The house was very clean, uncluttered and spacious. In particular we appreciated the cooking supplies, the beach towels, the laundry and the pool. Carley was very helpful and responsive. Great place!

Trip To Paradise

The pictures of this property don't begin to do it justice. The layout for our group of 6 was fabulous. Having three bedrooms with each having it's own bathroom was awesome. The kitchen has everything any cook could possibly need. We found the entire house to be very spacious and comfortable. There is a ton of space both interior and exterior. And the view is second to none!

Perfection in paradise

Eco Vida was perfection in paradise! The location was easy to access all locations of the island. The view was great! The home was spacious and extremely clean! The owners communicated clearly and were so kind! Lastly, the amenities… lots of extras that made our stay even better. St. John and Eco Vida did not disappoint at all and were so much more than we could have imagined! We would definitely stay at Eco Vida again!

Incredible stay!

Eco Vida is a simply stunning property, which was perfect for our family of four. The house is even lovelier than the pictures, and Carley had lots of small touches and conveniences to make it a luxurious experience in itself, in addition to a the lovely beaches of St. John. The views and breezes in the patios were fantastic, the kitchen was well stocked for days we preferred eating in and the house had some great beach gear. Also Carley was super- responsive to any questions. I would highly recommend it.

Amazing stay in Paradise!

The home was perfect! It’s closer to coral bay then Cruz bay, which we really enjoyed. You can’t beat the view and there are so many great beaches and restaurants close by. The bedrooms are cool and the beds are so comfortable. The house is very well stocked with everything you need and the WiFi worked great. We also really appreciated the beach chairs, noodles, beach towels, etc. We would definitely stay here again. Just as a FYI, but not a complaint at all because we are early risers, but bring a sleep mask if you want to sleep later because 2 out of the 3 bedrooms get very bright early in the morning. Thanks to Carley for being a great host.

Amazing house and views!!

We loved this villa!!! The views are amazing!!! We felt lucky to see that view every day. The house was spacious, the balcony was great, the pool was really nice, and the beds were comfortable. It took some getting used to the road and driveway leading to the house. My only complaint is that there was barely enough hot water for 3 quick showers. Otherwise, everything was perfect! Carley was great at communicating. We would definitely return!

An Amazing Experience

Eco Vida is a great place to stay in St John!. The location provides easy access to the north shore beaches, and when you come back from an outing you can enjoy the view and breezes from the pool! We enjoyed hiking, swimming, and snorkeling all over the island from our central home base. The kitchen has everything you need, the bedrooms are cool and comfortable, and the laundry is an added bonus. The check-in process was informative and welcoming - and the owners are friendly and responsive. We will never forget swimming with turtles at Maho Bay, seeing stingrays and octopus at Francis Bay, the gorgeous beach at Trunk Bay, the beautiful coral gardens and colorful fish at Hawksnest and Saltpond, and the breathtaking views from Ram Head.

Incredible house. Views were spectacular. We stayed during a time when there were widespread power outages in the VI (5 of the 7 days), but we didn’t notice at all. The house is on a Tesla battery system that provides back up power (no noisy generator!). The dryer and stove are gas, so you can still cook and do laundry when the power is out. We didn’t need the air conditioning at all because of the breeze and winds in March. Carley was very communicative each time power went out so that we knew to conserve energy. But it really wasn’t an issue at all. I say all this because I think the power issues in the USVI will continue to be an issue and houses equipped with back up power will be the way to go. The house itself is well equipped with cooking items, a great heated pool, beach chairs, coolers, and pool noodles. If you are a reader, she has all the STJ books and great beach reads! Throughly enjoyed our stay!

Breathtaking views and peaceful location

I echo the sentiments of previous reviewers. This property is in a great location and we preferred this more peaceful side on the island, yet it had easy access to all of the beaches and main hikes on St. John. Carley is a wonderful host with thoughtful suggestions for making your stay the best it can be. The tour with Steve was very helpful. We loved the layout of the house, the cooling breezes, and wonderful views on the large decks. Our children enjoyed the pool in the late afternoons and we all enjoyed time out on the patio every day. The house is very clean and the beds are comfortable. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you could possibly need for cooking or packing lunches for the day (lots of coolers, ice packs, ziploc bags, etc.). We enjoyed the games and books as well. Highly recommend this property!

The most incredible view ever!

Views for days! I don’t have the words to properly describe the views from this home. It’s almost surreal and you can see the views from almost every room in the house. The house itself was clean, spacious and well laid out. Perfect for spending time relaxing with family. The grill was in excellent condition which is rare in our experience with rental homes. The beach gear was in pristine condition and the plunge pool was refreshing after a day at the beach or for a quick dip in the morning. The kitchen was well stocked and had all the cooking essentials. Beds were super comfortable and linens provided were excellent quality. The beach towels were also a nice touch. I wish I could remember the brand because they repelled sand and water! We can’t wait to return!

Taste of Paradise

I can not say enough good things about Eco Vida. My wife and I stayed for a week with our two children (10 & 7) Everyone had their own room and bathroom which made life easy. The kids enjoyed the amazing pool every day after the beach and even the late evenings. We cooked on the grill 2 nights and the kitchen had everything we needed. Carley the host was beyond helpful even during the booking stages. We kept in contact the entire trip, and she even made restaurant suggestions and tips and tricks to get the best ouf of St. John. The house is so secluded and certainly an adventure getting to it, which we all loved. You definitely need a jeep, and not doable by taxi. The house was meticulously cleaned and met all our expectations and some. Overall the house was a 10 out of 10 and we will be back.

The BEST way to experience STJ

Five stars and two thumbs WAY UP for Eco Vida! This was our first visit to St. John, and our family loves adventure and exploration and being off the beaten path... If that is you- then you will not go wrong with a stay at this spectacular home. The host was fantastic and kept us informed with excellent communication each step of the journey. We packed so much fun into one week... Maho Bay morning swimming / snorkeling with the turtles, multiple Trunk Bay sunsets with an empty beach, Four wheeling fun to Lameshur Beach, Skinny Legs, Salty Mongoose, Johnny Lime, Day trip to Cruz Bay, Ram Head hike, and so much more!!! The house was equipped with everything that we needed including beach chairs, towels, packable coolers, an amazing kitchen inside and gas grill outside... and... the most spectacular view that you will ever see!!! Thank you Eco Vida!!!!
