This home is very clean and modern. The management is fabulous! The home has everything anyone would need for cooking and the beaches. The grill is amazing, we loved it! The pool area is beautiful and so relaxing. The area the house is located is very quiet with views from the upper decks. We also loved the fact we could fit two vehicles side by side in the driveway.

We had a wonderful stay at Island Manor! The house was beautiful, clean and abundantly stocked with anything we could need…from cooking items and utensils to snorkel gear. Jen and Joey were incredibly helpful as our flights to and from the island were disrupted and required last minute changes. We loved the location on the island and our children especially loved walking the path down to the cove from our house. So much wildlife! Birds, iguanas and hermit crabs. Our beds were comfortable and we loved being able to spread out through the house for our family of 8 (grandparents, parents and children aged 11-15). We would love to visit again and would certainly choose Island Manor!

This house is great. I’ve stayed in several on St John and this is better than most and as good as any. Every room has its own private balcony, the living space is well apportioned and located. It’s close to town - literally only prob 3 min drive to the Westin. Kitchen well-appointed, AC worked well, chairs and snorkel equipment and beach towels galore. A very nice welcome basket and cold drinks in the fridge when we arrived. Excellent property. And Jen and Joey were available for any issues or anything we needed. Also had very pleasant correspondence with the owner.

Great family stay

House was perfect for our stay. 4 masters and the 4th being the room that joins the twin beds for the 5th was perfect for the kids. They have all the gear available at the house you could need for your stay in St. John. Perfect place to stay for a multi family trip or 4 couples.

Amazing Property

This Villa was beautiful! Everything was A and the property managers were truly a concierge service. From the amazing welcome basket to the immediate service when we needed a hand with some water issues they were so attentive. My husband and I have been coming to St John for 35 years and have never had the property been so well stocked and had managers come midweek for trash and recycling pick up! The house is modern yet comfortable the only issue we had was the water pressure in the two upper room showers but would highly recommend staying at Island Manor Villa!

Best Rental Experience

This was far and away the best rental experience I’ve had to date. Have done many vacation rental stays and this one tops them all. Not just the beauty of the home, or the location, but the house is stocked with everything you could possibly need and more. It was honestly quite mind blowing what all is provided at the home. Couldn’t see myself booking any other property on the next trip to STJ. Communication and checkin/checkout were painless and the home was plenty of space for 9 adults.
