The responsive and accommodating host further enhances the overall experience, ensuring a warm and welcoming stay that visitors are eager to repeat.

we stayed tonight's so short trip but the apartment was really well appointed is very close to downtown the last little walk up the hill you do need sturdy legs for. We appreciated the coffee left. A restaurant just down the road on the corner called fusilli was fantastic and recommended. Good communication, a small issue with the WiFi was sorted very quickly.

Perfect for what I needed. I was out a lot, being on st Thomas so it was nice to come back to a place that quiet and clean. Restaurants and bars within walking distance, but I wouldnt stay out too late in the area.

Super Cute sunshine filled apartment with very comfortable living area and kitchen. There are lovely details I didn’t expect ~

Location cant be beat, however if your physically challenged the walk up and down will be a challenge!

Great Italian restaurant on the corner!

Wonderful! Hosts were super responsive! 10/10 will stay again!

The place was very spacious and homely. They had amazing linen and towels. 

The location was great, we could walk to lots of restaurants and very close to a bus stop. Our hosts were very attentive and responsive in all communication. They made an effort to make sure we had a pleasant weekend and gave us great recommendations to move around the island.
