A beautiful view and a roomy, quiet, safe, and clean lodging. Jin and his wife are attentive and helpful hosts. We never used a/c during our February stay because we were able to leave screened windows open and enjoy the steady breeze. We would happily stay here again if possible.
Awesome Time..very gracious host Who was nice enough to show us around the island and knows where everything’s at and whatever you wanna do whether it’s relax or are taking all the activities that are available He knows!
Jin and his wife are excellent hosts. Jin went out of his way to ensure we had what we needed. Answered all our questions about the island. Very knowledgeable! Even took us on a snorkeling adventure. Beautiful view with excellent access to everything on the east end of the island.
Everything about the stay was wonderful. Jin met us to lead us to the property- much appreciated. Once we were there, we relaxed and basked in the beautiful setting. Jin and his wife could not have been more helpful and welcoming. The only drawback was out of their control - as the Bidens were on the island, the most direct route to Christiansted and the rest of the island was closed. It made getting around much more time consuming. Apart from that headache, we loved our stay and can't wait to return.

We've been to St.Croix many times but this was our first time staying on the east end. Jin was a wonderful host and pointed out a few snorkel spots that we hadn't tried before (Jack Bay via a short hike from the west side, off the beach by the Divi resort and Boiler Bay from Cramer Park Beach). Jin and his wife prepared and shared picnic lunches with my wife and I at Cain Bay and Cramer Park. They also guided us on a snorkel at the Frederiksted pier, pointing out turtles and an eagle ray. Recommend to stay with Jin, to enjoy his wonderful sushi and the best view in St Croix!
Jin and his wife are gracious and welcoming hosts. My husband and I enjoyed staying at their property. Jin met us at a local establishment the first day and showed us the way to their home. He provided a tour of the property which is expanse, well cared for and an amazing vista of buck island, on clear days, st thomas, and st john as well as Christiansted, st croix. Jin loves to make sushi and was generous and shared a meal of sushi for both of us. He even remembered our allergies. Jin offered to show us snorkeling sites, however this trip our schedule didn't have time planned for snorkeling, but we plan to catch up with Jin on our next trip to the island for snorkeling and my husband is looking forward to a visit to dive together. Memorable stay at Jin's house and recommend to others.
Thank you for an amazing stay! Beverly & Rich
We truly enjoyed our stay. The views are spectacular! Jin was a warm and helpful host, always ready to suggest places to explore. And his sushi was delicious. We are very happy we were able to spend a few days in this wonderful place.
Jin and his wife were beyond accommodating in every way! The view from his property is truly unbelievable and they keep everything very clean and comfortable.
This large apartment has everything you will need, but the best part is waking up to that view every morning! The host Jin acted as our personal tour guide for a couple of snorkel trips (bring your own equipment), and a picnic, where he provided his home-made sushi. Photos of the place are accurate. Not everything is shiny and new, but it's typical of island living, and comfortable. Open all the many windows to enjoy the island breezes, and savor the view.
The Chois were fabulous hosts always available but never in our “space.” The Pirate House has an even better view than the photos show. Indoor and outdoor spaces to enjoy them as well as spots that are shady and sunny at any time of the day. We enjoyed the breezes all night (in March) and never even bothered with the AC. Jin and SuynLee took us on the best snorkeling excursion we’ve ever had, treated us to sushi and other amazing food by chef Jin, and he mesmerized us and our 16yo with brain teasers and magic tricks. One of the furthest East places you can stay so don’t miss stargazing at Pt Udall!

Absolutely wonderful Jin and his wife went above and beyond to make sure our stay was the best it could possibly be !!! 10 out of 5 for the sushi man !!! Beautiful place !!
The views were outstanding. I would suggest a pair of binoculars. Remember to bring beach towels as they are not supplied. Also, you may want to consider bringing a JBL speaker for music. If you like to read at night be sure and include a book light.
It is a perfect condo for two families with a bedroom and bath on either side of the kitchen.
The closest beach is an easy 20 minute walk down but remember with the fabulous views it is a bit more of a strenuous walk coming back up to condo.
Host was very accommodating when I asked for use of beach chairs. He also supplied a lovely meal of fresh sushi!
Owners were great to work with. View was perfect for my wife and I. Two of our favorite things from the island were in view from the deck, buck island and the St Croix castle.
Very quiet and private, with gated entrance.
Just a lovely place for anyone who enjoys St Croix!
The views are priceless at this hidden gem. Jin and his wife were fantastic hosts and are very open to being your travel planner for things to do if it is your first time visiting St. Croix! We are looking forward to our next stay! Thanks again Jin.
The property was as described and perfect for two friends on island for a weekend. Jin was very friendly and accessible the whole time we were there. He also makes outstanding sushi! Only thing to be aware, there are many stairs to deal with that might be a problem for some.
Grapetree has the best views hands down. Sunsets are fantastic. The breezes all night long are amazing. Our hosts were lovely people. The beautiful cactus by the patio has hummingbirds in it. The friendly neighborhood cat, Pedro, will be missed. Beautiful spot.
Our host was amazing. He gave us tours, made an amazing meal, and just took a real interest in our family. The home was clean and comfortable, but the location was absolutely magical. If you don't mind being on the quieter east end and having a 20 minute ride to Christiansted, this is a fantastic VRBO rental.

About the host
Hosted by Jin
Moving here from Chicago 20 years ago, I've enjoyed St Croix island's natural beauty. During the day I roll sushi roll for the local markets which any guests are welcome to try. I'm an expert snorkeling swimmer as well.
