Cottage vacation rentals in U.S. Virgin Islands

The home was perfect for our needs with a beautiful view of Buck Island. The beds were comfy and the place very clean and stocked with everything we needed. Christine and Stacie were very responsive to our questions. The home is in a great area and so easy to find. Hopefully we will be back.

Cynthia and her team were amazing. From the moment we booked until we left, the communication was prompt and helpful. The place is Heaven on Earth! The views are amazing and very private. There are gorgeous paths on the property with exotic plants and wildlife. The hosts have everything you will need, including aloe for sunburns, beach chairs, snorkeling gear, towels, coolers, etc. This is probably the nicest and most well appointed rental we have stayed in. The location is quiet and only a short drive to restaurants, the market, marina, beaches and hikes. However, being at the far end of the island, everything is scaled down and there are fewer people. We found uninhabited beaches and some of the best hiking ever. If you don't like crowds, this is the place for you. Highly recommend.

Owners were super nice and easy to work with! Caretakers, Joe and Sally couldn't have been more helpful. My family would love to return to this special house!

A lovely week for our family vacation to St John! Fair Winds is very private, cozy, and comfortable. The VIEW IS AMAZING. We stargazed every night and felt the trade winds cool us off after an outdoor shower in paradise. The kids loved staying in the guest house while us parents stayed in the main house bedroom. Thank you, Margaret for meeting us in Coral Bay and leading us up the mountain so we knew exactly where to go!

One of our best family vacations ever! Cynthia's house is beautiful, super comfortable and has stunning views. The beds were very comfortable and we loved falling asleep to the sounds of frogs and crickets outside. The house was spotlessly clean and we had everything we needed. The property manager even brought us a delicious banana cake warm out of the oven! We loved the location in the more quiet part of the island - a true getaway! But renters should know that there are not many restaurants so cooking at home is best. Also the driving is challenging and the roads are very steep, so you need to be prepared for some challenging driving - but definitely worth the effort!!! The book of tips from the hosts was also very helpful - great tips on best beaches to visit. Thanks for a great stay!

We enjoyed our stay at Fair Winds. We especially liked the beautiful view,the hot tub and outdoor shower, and waking up every morning to the sunrise view in front of us. The house was very private,and we appreciated the town of Coral Bay, much quieter and less built up than Cruz Bay. At night the view of the stars from the deck was incredible. The drive to the house is not for the faint of heart, we appreciated Margaret showing us the way the first time up, and we got used to it as the week went on. St John is so beautiful. We had a great week here celebrating our 25th anniversary!

Lynn’s place was perfect for us as 2 couples visiting St. John. Close to everything and with beautiful views, we enjoyed our stay. Kitchen was also really well-equipped which was much appreciated!

Emily’s place was a perfect getaway. You can’t beat the view of Coral Bay from the deck. The cottages were very clean, well kept, and had absolutely everything you could need. She was very helpful in providing directions to the cottage and was very easy to communicate with. We have stayed in several other Airbnbs on the island and this was by far the best! We hope to be back next year. Thank you Emily for a perfect week! 10/10

Located in a private gated community, this cottage has its own pool and a deck with a spectacular view of the harbor. The place is very clean with a well stoked kitchen. We had a wonderful week and would definitely stay here again.

I have stayed at many places on the island while visiting family, and this one was my favorite. The staff is very friendly, there are cool cats that live on the property, the amenities were included which was great. They have little canopy’s to sit under and floaties to use, bug spray outside; etc. quiet and relaxed. Walk right on to the beach!

We had an incredible stay at this St. John gem! If you're looking for a private, authentic island experience, this is it. The hosts were incredibly responsive and helpful, making us feel right at home. The house itself is a charming rustic island home with breathtaking views. We loved having two separate living spaces, perfect for our group of two couples. The provided coolers, chairs, and floaties were a fantastic bonus, and we truly felt like we were living like locals. Plus, it was wonderfully affordable for all the amenities and views. Highly recommend!

Incredible energy, beautifully and thoughtfully decorated, and secluded from the rest of the world. If you’re looking for a beautiful place to escape on a small island, look no further. Grab a golf cart from Rachel’s rentals and enjoy the freedom of exploring water island! Ingrid was a delight in helping us with anything we needed. Everyone that was working/staying on the property was like minded and wonderful. Can’t wait to come back:)

We couldn't have been more pleased with our stay. What an amazing stay. They truly focus on making your stay comfortable. From the moment we arrived until the moment we left we always felt at home. All the staff was beyond helpful and kind. We are so thankful. Thank you.

We had an amazing stay at Pooja’s we highly recommend staying at this airbnb. We enjoyed the area and the views are incredible. You can hear and feel the ocean breeze from the bedroom. It’s close to many hikes, beaches, attractions and an all around great location and place to stay!

St. Thomas was great but meeting Mida was my favorite part of the trip. She did more than she was suppose to do. Her personality was a true blessing during this trip. If you guys have de opportunity to book with her, don’t think it twice. After that trip I won a mom in st. Thomas.

Very nice. Pictures are very accurate. Comfortable. Clean. Nice.

Such a beautiful spot on the more secluded area on the island. We stayed in the larger house on the property so this is a review for that one but it was absolutely incredibly and had everything we needed and more. The views are top notch. Sam was there to help us get in and parked once we got off the early morning ferry. Overall it was spectacular — highly recommend.

We are repeat guests and chose to return to Sol~Azul because of our 5 star experience two years ago. Our recent stay was equally as positive and we look forward to many more trips in the future.

Tara's place was a perfect place to stay on St. John. Very private and peaceful with beautiful views of the sea and other islands. Very close to rams head trail and salt pond beach, which was one of our favorite places on the island . Between falling asleep to the sound of the beach below, or laying on the upper patio overlooking the islands in the evening, we hope to stay at Tara's place when we come back to St. John!

Had a great stay! Location is close to town and all the beaches. Cottage is very clean and was perfect for our trip. Make sure you have a 4 wheel drive car to get there. Driveway is steep.

What a beautiful home to stay in! It was perfect for the 2 of us! All the snorkel gear, coolers, towels, and chairs were helpful- so we didn’t have to rent any. Home is about 5 minutes to Cruz bay, and about 25-30 to Coral bay. Easy to get in/out of the house with our rental jeep. You have a shared road- but your own private drive. It was helpful for Mary to show us the drive from town to the house on our first night! Thank you for a wonderful vacation! Much enjoyed your slice of paradise!

What an amazing week and special location. The numerous 5 star reviews for Seaside Serenity reflect our experience as well. Theresa is a kind and generous host and felt a bit like having an island guide - her suggestions for things to do and see were personalized and spot on for our family and things we might have otherwise missed. We were spoiled by the private beach swimming there daily after morning coffee overlooking the sea. What a relaxing, beautiful, and well stocked rental (including passion fruit from a nearby tree Theresa picked for us to try and were delicious!)

This was the first time that I have stayed outside of Cruz Bay when visiting St. John. I was a little nervous but finding the place and if it would feel too far away from everything. It was so beautiful and the place was darling. Very clean and fairly easy to find even after dark. We absolutely loved the screened in porch and all the wildlife! It was the first time I’ve brought my family with me and it was absolutely magical. Kelsey, the property manager was responsive and so extremely helpful! It was exactly What I was hoping for.

My husband and I just went for our 20th anniversary. We LOVED how private the home was yet has such an amazing view. The property is perfect for a couple wanting to relax and take in the island. The pool was perfect for cooling off after a day at the beach. Loved waking up and having coffee on the porch in the mornings. The property also had an amazing outdoor shower that felt private yet in nature. JP helped us check in and he was very helpful with surrounding restaurant suggestions as well as some insider info for beaches and hikes. It couldn't have been more perfect !
