Kid-friendly holiday rentals in St. John

If you find yourself in St. John and want a beautiful secluded space with a great view, do not hesitate to stay here! The road getting up to it is extremely steep so if that is hard for you, that would be the only issue. Our jeep made the climb up and down no problem, but it was the steepest road I have ever been on! Other than that, the space is perfect for your homebase. I highly recommend Coffee on the porch for sunrise before your adventure of the day. A great clean space that just feels good to be in.

This place is amazing, the views are to die for. It was clean and quiet. Neighbors quiet as well. Parking spot a little tight but I found that going past and turning around much easier to pull into. Beds were comfy and my husband could not stop talking about the beautiful shower and how much he loved the rain shower facet. Andy is super quick to respond to every message and help out with anything you ask. We will definitely come back to this wonderful paradise cottage. Thanks for a great vacation get away.

Beautiful, clean, eclectic villa in a great location!! Host representative met us at check in and walked us through everything. House was super clean and the view was great. Definitely want to arrive during daylight as the driveway is a little tricky the guest time up. Also, recommend 4 wheel drive vehicle. Having the beach chairs and cooler was a great addition for our adventures. Location is great for beaches and islands exploring. Was a great place to spend our 25th wedding anniversary:)

This was our second visit to St. John, and Villa Nesta was the perfect spot for us! If you’re looking for a perfectly appointed house, with breathtaking views, peace and quiet, a friendly and helpful host, and easily navigable roads to and from local beaches and restaurants, look no further. We especially loved the gorgeous back deck and the tranquility of the outdoor shower. We had one full day of rain this trip, which we took as an opportunity to stay in, relax, and simply appreciate the seascapes all around us. We will absolutely be back!

We loved our stay at the Yellow Flamingo. we traveled with 2 adults and 2 kids the size of adults(14 and 12). Honestly, I was very pleased with the condo. Based on the pictures and previous experiences with smaller rentals, I was afraid we were going to be cramped or the kids bed was going to be too small. I was pleasantly surprised they had enough room to share the sofa and we had enough room to maneuver around each other. We were very pleased with the location too it was a quick scenic drive to any of the main beaches. The view from the pool was great! The pool had a ledge to sit and was about 6 ft deep in the middle. The kids were slightly disappointed they couldn't touch bottom. This was the only complaint from them and it didn't matter because they got their water fix at the beach. The kitchen setup was great because we were able to fix quick dinners easily. Our host could not have done anything more to make our stay better.

The home is spacious and well located. I would definitely stay here again! The host was very responsive.

I don’t have adequate words so soon after leaving to express the feeling that stays with me after being at orchid house for a week. All I can say is that my heart is full. If you are a person who isn’t looking for fancy, and whose idea of contentment is lying in a hammock listening to all the sounds of life teeming around you, this is a place you’ll never want to leave. Wonderful hosts and truly an extraordinary place. A work of art in every way. So grateful to have experienced it!

Great location in the heart of Cruz Bay with the ability walk to everything around, yet quite enough to get a good night sleep. Perfect size for a vacation with kitchen, coffee, laundry, etc.. and great added value of being able to rent a jeep with them as well. Made it easy to leave the key for the rental and check out!

My 10-year-old daughter and I had a great stay! Tricia and Dave were super kind and communicative, giving lots of helpful suggestions and were there whenever an issue arose. A few things to note: — the space is just below their home, and you can definitely hear them upstairs when they’re home — they provide so many helpful things to make your time there wonderful: beach chairs, towels, snorkel gear, Floaties, etc. — the listed address is not correct, so be sure to follow directions listed or maybe ask them privately for the correct address. I had no problems with GPS on the island, and I have Verizon — there’s no AC, but they do a great job of providing fans and ventilated windows — be sure to sleep with all lights off. We left a light on for the comfort of my daughter, the first night, and woke up to a lot of bugs inside. Lesson learned! Overall, a great stay, and we would happily return!

We had a wonderful stay at True Blessings. Laurel is a great host and would quickly reply to any communication. It is perfect for 2 people. We loved sitting by the bar on the deck with our morning coffee and the evenings we cooked at home.

Alex’s place was beautiful. Spacious and so clean. We loved sitting on the terrace and drinking our coffee every morning. Anything we needed, Alex responded immediately. We rented his jeep and it was great to go around the island. Would highly recommend.

We always enjoy staying at Casa Tua. The last two years we were in #3, going back to #1 next year, we like a little extra space. Highly recommend

We loved this condo. Well appointed kitchen including a dishwasher and all the appliances you could ask for. Washer and dryer were very useful after a day at the beach . Everything was so close that we didn’t feel we needed a car (even tho you get a dedicated parking space). Shared taxis to the beaches are just 5 mins walk away. We appreciated use of the included beach chairs which were easy to carry on trips .

Thelma is a local who knows everything! She and her husband helped me through my three days here, including calling taxi, finding bus stop and luggage storage etc. Couldn’t ask a more supportive host! Also their place is very cozy and clean, with a lovely cat nearby.

We absolutely loved our stay here. The location couldn’t have been better: close to town, local markets, and the stunning North Shore beaches but still felt like our own private escape. Mornings with coffee on the balcony and evenings watching the sunset were awesome. The king bed was comfortable, and the whole place had a peaceful, welcoming vibe. The hosts were super kind and helpful, offering great local recommendations. Don’t miss dinner at Morgan’s Mango—it was one of our favorite meals! This spot truly gave us the best of St John. We’re already dreaming about coming back.

We had a wonderful stay! We needed a place for two nights within walking distance of Cruz Bay- this was the perfect spot. Bridget was there to greet us and their whole family was lovely. Location was great- short walk to Dolphin Market for groceries- and we even hiked to Salomon Beach!

Our stay in St. John’s was great! Charlie was a great host. He was extremely welcoming, responsive and gracious. The Airbnb has a separate entrance and feels very private. The grounds are beautiful and well kept. The place was well equipped with essentials needed for cooking, the beach, and toiletries. My mom and I do a girls trip every year and we would be happy to stay here again!

Stay salty was such a great space. Clean and cozy with a wonderful screened in porch. My husband and I had a wonderful stay. The kitchen was well appointed. They provide all the beach necessities which was great when my husbands snorkel broke and we had 2 to choose from at the house. We used the beach chairs and the cooler everyday and the house even had great ice packs. The designated parking right in front is such a plus in St. John. We would rent again. Thanks for a great stay!

My wife and I travelled with our two adult children and this place provided more than adequate space for the 4 of us without us feeling cramped. The views from the deck were fantastic. The property provided all that we needed. Beach chairs and beach towels were provided, which was nice. Parking was provided. The pool was situated in a spot for great views as well. A couple of things worth noting. This property does not have a generator as a backup power source. Cruz Bay lost power 3 of the 5 days we were there. We were powerless in the unit for multiple hours each of the first 3 days. We were asked not to use the water (including toilets) while the power was out. It was not an issue outside of the property as most all businesses have generators. Lastly, the reason this place has spectacular views is because it sits at the highest point of a hill overlooking Cruz Bay. The path to walk in and out of town, while close, has steep hills which may be a challenge for some.

Kim, was so fabulous of making sure we had every thing needed including an information packet, which was so informative, and then some. Kim met us upon arrival and gave us a tour and filled us in on all necessary information. She had a gift basket prepared upon arrival as well. If we had any questions and concerns she was Johnny on the spot. We had a great trip and appreciate Kim's island hospitality.

Palmy Daze is a lovely island condo. Upon entering you are met with view of Cruz Bay, once on the deck you are at eye level with a tree bursting full of coconuts and beautiful trees in bloom, so many ! The pool is visible through the foliage from the deck. The interior was immaculate, wood floors and the wooden spiral staircase were polished to an amazing shine. Couch was very comfortable, fully equipped kitchen, plenty of towels, and beach equipment! Both beds were very comfortable and the linens were of good quality and smelled so good! There are 2 portable air conditioners that we didn't need as the breeze from all the large windows and ceiling fans were great. Huge thanks to Trevor who picked us up with the jeep at the ferry dock and drove us to PD. He was also kind enough to have 6 gallons of water waiting for us in the condo. Both Trevor and Dena answered any questions immediately. I'm sure I'm leaving something out, but it was all very good!

Amazing unit with an incredible view! Steps away from downtown cruise bay and the beachfront restaurants. The unit is great for a couple or a small family. Felt much more spacious than the photos made it seem. The check in was smooth and the facility and pool was well kept. Definitely will look to stay here again when visiting St John!

Well appointed and updated unit with great amenities, including lots of beach equipment for use, plenty of towels and bathroom supplies, and well stocked kitchen. Great access to beach and pool and convenient to Red Hook eateries and grocery. Condo is well designed and we enjoyed our brief visit as the unit was comfortable, well located, and nicely decorated. We would highly recommend to families seeking getaway in East end of St Thomas.

We stayed at Margaret’s place for a family trip at St John for 5 nights. It was such an incredible vacation and this stay contributed to it. The location was perfect and an easy walk into town. It’s also right next to the car barge which was very convenient on our return. We had no issues with our stay and would look forward to staying here again for a longer trip! Thanks again!
