Wonderful property. 5 master suites. I mean, come on. Donald made sure we made it in safely day of check in, met us and gave us a tour of the property. He kept in touch throughout the week. He also met us our last day at check out to give us a parting gift. I can’t say enough about this property, the location, the accommodations and how stunning it was. I just hope the guests who checked in after us enjoyed all the alcohol we left. The next time we’re in St John, we will definitely be renting from Donald again. 15 out of 10

Magical stay

Our family of eleven thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Beach Estate. The artistic flair of the house really added to our experience. We loved the views, and that we were able to walk right out into the water from the house. Having a private beach was amazing. The house is roomy and had plenty of amenities, like beach towels, and reef safe sunblock. Our hosts were very responsive and a delight.

Family trip to St John

We had an amazing time staying at the Beach Estate. We had a family of 9 and with 5 master suites we felt we had our own private space. We have traveled a lot over the years and the whole family agreed this was the most amazing experience we have had. We explored so many amazing beaches and loved them all but if you are up for a light walk you have to get over to Leinster Bay the snorkeling is amazing! We definitely plan to return again very soon. Thank you Donald for all of your tips and taking care of all of our needs!

Amazing

This was the perfect house for our large family. We loved the quirky details and the fact that it reminded us of a castle. The house provided us with everything that we needed including beach chairs. The rooms were spacious and had air conditioning and everyone had their own bed! No couches or pullouts necessary. A big thank you to Donald! He made us feel so welcome and taught my husband to saber a champagne bottle! Hope to stay again in the future!

Beach, large rooms, great location!

We loved our stay with our 12 family members and Donald was an excellent host! The property was so unique with all of his art and handmade lighting fixtures and the AC in each bedroom was nice and cold, and we had all the comforts of home, and the two fridges was nice for our big family. The open air living room was quite hot during the summer season but Donald brought us a few fans to try and make it more comfortable. We knew that the living room may be warm when booking but wanted to have beach access since most homes in St John do not. This was a perfect trade off! We rented cars from Donald with ease as well. Such a great vacation!

Donald and His Crew Are Top Notch!

I've never stayed at a property with such care and attention given to the guests at every step of the visit. Donald, his wife, and his team supporting his properties are top notch. From making it effortless to meet us at the docks, get to our vehicles, and get in the home - to teaching me how to saber champagne, and the chaos that was our check out process. The team was great, very welcoming, addressed our every need (even including changing out a mattress for my 60 y/o mom). We all loved the property, the proximity to the town is something we've grown used to in prior properties, but the scale, individual bedrooms with their own showers, the spacious shared living space, it all was fantastic. Thank you Donald - we will be reaching out to you for our next visit!

The property was very welcoming and Islandy (made that word up) - easy access to water and town. In the evenings the house had a real castle feel with beautiful lights everywhere.

Nothing short of paradise

We visited this property with four other couples. The view was amazing and the house was perfect for our group. There is an open air common area and kitchen to gather, while each bedroom was a private area. The pool and hot tub were spectacular. There are many beautiful homes on the island but only a few that are beachfront. We were so glad we made the decision to choose a property with a beach. It may not be like Trunk Bay but we enjoyed rafting and the hammocks on our own little beach. I would highly recommend this beautiful home

Paradise found

Donald is an amazing host. Saw to every detail and made sure our stay was incredible. The location is amazing-near everything-very peaceful. Home allowed our group to gather and also was spacious enough to allow everyone to have this own space. Home is definitely older so not the most modern of amenities but the trade off for space and location is well worth it We really enjoyed the pool and the beach. Lots of time spent in the hammocks on the sand. Highly recommend this home

Beautiful villa! Lots of room for my family of 9. Having the pool, hot tub and beach was wonderful. Swam from the sandy beach. Great snorkeling to the left at the mouth of great Cruz bay. Great location. Hammocks and lounges down by the water also a plus. Wonderful property, great owners.

Charming retreat

Donald and Debbie have curated a lovely oasis which served as the perfect pre Christmas retreat for our family. With a group of 12, the set up could not have been more ideal. This home is spacious and comfortable. The waterfront, private beach is perfect for snorkeling and sunbathing. You will feel as though you are in a Tuscany villa with a Caribbean vibe. Donald is accessible and knowledgable, able to answer any questions you may have. This is truly a one of a kind, hidden gem!

Incredible

The property is as advertised. Immaculate. The setting was perfect. Waterfront was awesome! Each and every room had their own master bath it was private and separate from each other room. On a scale 1 to 10 it’s a 10.

This home is AMAZING!

I call it a home because of so many personal touches it has! Donald and Debbie go above and beyond communicating with you before you even arrive with various help they will provide for a wonderful stay! The house is unbelievable and the pictures do not do it justice. It has many unique things about it. Having a beach front property with a pool and hot tub is the #1 reason we would stay again for sure! The house has all the amenities you need and the views are breathtaking! We would book this house again no question!

Nice location & Roomy

Don's beach estate was a nice property located at my favorite area of the island. The direct bay access was a good bonus. Don has done a great job of developing a unique property. It was fun to spend time there. The house was well-appointed, but we did hope for a little more given the price. The frig in the kitchen needs to be replaced. It did not hold the temperature well and some of our dairy spoiled as a result. In addition, the ice maker stopped working after a couple of days. There is an alternative frig outside that we used (no ice maker), however that was mainly for beverages given less convenient location. Also, there were some beach chairs provided, but less than what was needed, and most were of poor quality. Finally, we had been told kayaks would be available for use but found out right before the trip that was not the case. We rented at our own expense. There were complications getting use of them, so I would not recommend that option. It is a very nice property. It just needs a little investment to fully justify the price point.
