On a whim! very clean, well stocked, very comfortable and beautiful. We enjoyed the porch and pool both with great views. Love the extra touches, music playing on our arrival. Dwight was a text away and replied promptly. We enjoyed the outside speakers in the evenings. Nothing disappointing here!

The home is exactly as pictured and described. This was our first time on the island and we enjoyed Coral Bay. We rented a Jeep and easily found the villa on the first day. Dwight was very helpful with directions and useful information about the home and island. The home was impeccably cleaned and we enjoyed the amenities provided.

Peaceful getaway with everything we needed

We really enjoyed our stay. The house was well organized and had everything we needed. I loved starting my day relaxing on the deck with a view of Cruz Bay and then at night the view of the stars from the pool area was amazing.

We loved our stay at On a Whim. So many little thoughtful details are taken care of. From detailed guide books and directions to comfy beach chairs and luxury towels this property has thought of it all. We hope to return someday!

Already dreaming of returning

This was one of the absolute best stays and experiences I’ve ever had at a rental property. Communication was excellent, amenities were excellent, and the location was close to restaurants and grocery stores but also felt private. It was the perfect way to end our anniversary trip and we can’t wait to return!

Perfect anniversary getaway

Stayed here for our 10 year anniversary and it was absolutely amazing. Private and peaceful, away from the chaos of the harbor, but still within 15min of the best beaches we’ve ever been to. After a long day of hiking and beaches, the private pool was the perfect way to unwind. We will absolutely be coming back!

Perfect vacation rental!

Dwight had outstanding communication before, during, and after our stay. House and grounds were even better than expected. Absolutely loved this place and can’t wait to return. Pool is on the north side of house and doesn’t get too warm. You can lay out in sunshine there but water isn’t the warmest. Great place!!!

A Wonderful and Relaxing Stay

Staying at the On a Whim house was a wonderful experience for our family. Everything you need for a comfortable stay is provided, and the extra details were much appreciated, like the weights, snorkeling gear, and coolers. The space is well laid out and very clean, and the view/location is hard to beat. Dwight, the property manager was also excellent. We ran into a water issue during our stay, and he was very quick to resolve it. We can not say enough great things about this spot and hope to visit again in the future!

Perfect Quiet Location

My husband and I were looking for a quiet spot near Coral Bay for our 10 year anniversary. On a Whim was perfect! The house was fully stocked with everything. The pool and view were amazing. The driveway was easy to access (in comparison to others on the island).

Carolina March 2025

Nice, updated, clean house with great views on a more secluded and quiet part of the island. Sitting on the covered outdoor patio with its views and natural breeze was delightful, so much so that we ate every meal out there. The pool was also a great place to relax (views again), especially after a beach/boating day. An updated kitchen was very helpful as well. Everything worked in the house. Overall, a very relaxing place to stay on St. John’s
