Very kind people who run the place, it was beautiful and exactly as pictured and described. They helped us figure out the car rental and were so sweet to allow us a place to store our bags when our return flight was delayed all while picking us up and dropping us off at the ferry dock when we arrived and departed.

We absolutely loved our stay! The apartment's location is truly unbeatable—everything in town is just a short walk away.Don, was a huge part of what made this trip so special. He was incredibly helpful, picking us up from the ferry and sharing excellent local recommendations. He genuinely cares and went out of his way to ensure we had a perfect vacation.The apartment itself is beautiful and clearly well-cared for, featuring Don's wonderful artwork throughout, which gives the space a unique personality.This is exactly what a great vacation rental should be: a beautiful property with character and a host who loves the area and wants to share it. Highly recommend!

Great location in Cruz bay. Easily walk to all dinner spots/bars. Room was clean and exactly as pictured. Had great amenities for the beach including towels, a cooler, chairs, and other beach needs. Really enjoyed their efforts towards being environmentally focused. Friendly host and everyone who was there was extremely helpful. We were also able to rent a car with them as well which helped streamline our stay. Highly recommend if you’re planning to spend time in Cruz bay and surrounding beaches.

Donald and Debbie were absolutely excellent hosts. They truly know everything that’s happening in and around St. John and were an incredible resource for recommendations, activities, and island tips. Donald’s pottery is also beautiful and so unique — such a special touch to the experience.We stayed in the Amore Suite and loved it. The king bed was very comfortable, and having a washer and dryer in our unit was such a huge plus. The location is incredibly convenient — just a short, easy walk to town. From the roundabout, you can head quickly toward Mongoose Junction or straight into Cruz Bay, making it easy to get everywhere. It’s right near Dolphin Market and only about a five-minute walk to Starfish Market.They also offer Jeep rentals, which we found to be very competitively priced and super convenient to book through them.We absolutely love coming to St. John, and this was a fantastic place to stay. We would absolutely stay here again and would highly recommend it to friends and family.

Honeymoon Stay!

Donald was such a joy! He picked us up from the docks and made sure we were taken care of throughout our stay. The location is very central to restaurants and a grocery store in Cruz bay. Only a 5 minute walk to the docks. Even though we both got sick on our honeymoon, we really enjoyed our stay :)
