This experience was everything an AirBnB experience should be! It didn't feel like staying at a hotel or a resort. It was private, quiet, safe, and most importantly, BEAUTIFUL! Selwyn couldn't have been lovelier and more hospitable! She was GREAT with recommendations on beaches, food, grocery shopping, and anything else you could think of! All the amenities were in great condition (A/C was great on the really hot and humid days!) The bed was comfortable and there seemed to be a lot more space to spread out than the pictures look! I will be returning to the sweet little cottage on the bay whenever I can! The best part of the whole vacation was definitely the stay at the Sweet Cottage! Book this ASAP because I'm sure it'll book fast!Stephen2014-10-07T00:00:00Z
Love, love, loved it at Selwyns!! A beautiful place with beautiful views and close to the best beach ever - Megan's Bay. Selwyn is an amazing and wise person who loves her life and can direct you to anything you need. I had a fantastic vacation. I would highly recommend her place - just don't book the weeks I want to return!!!!wendy2015-02-02T00:00:00Z
We had a lovely time at Selwyn's Sweet Cottage! Selwyn was gracious and welcoming (picked us up from the ferry and drove us to the airport!). The cottage was so cute and the views from the place were beautiful. We didn't have a car but would definitely recommend one for longer stays. We would definitely stay there again!Phoebe2015-06-22T00:00:00Z
Selwyn's place offered a spectacular view. She was gracious enough to come pick us up. That was nice. There was a small fee added. The shower was outdoors and really wonderful. There was no kitchen or living area at the unit I stayed in. There was a small refrigerator in the bathroom with a coffee pot. The space was small but nice. I do recommend her place especially if you want to be away from the hustle and bustle.Sharon2016-12-31T00:00:00Z
Selwyn was a great host. Even though she wasn't there when we arrived, she was only a text away and we were in communication. The Sweet Cottage was as described and what we expected, charming, cute, cozy. The best thing about it is the outdoor shower. It was fantastic! The views out over Magan's Bay were breathtaking. One of the reasons we chose this was it's location in Peterborg, an area we understood to be very safe and we felt that way.Gerry2016-01-19T00:00:00Z
Selwyn was extraordinary. She was proactive, calling us well before our visit and west out of her way to see that we were prepared. The place was one of a kind. We loved the outdoor shower and the company of the kitties. We will certainly be back next year..Stewart2014-12-20T00:00:00Z
Overall was a good experience. Loved the cottage, it was perfect for us. The view has to be its best selling point. Was just amazed on how beautiful Magen's Bay is from up there. Selwyn was welcoming and made us feel like home. She has all the things you need from beach chairs to coolers and even snorkel gear. Loved it, we would definitely stay here again!Harol2016-11-04T00:00:00Z
My boyfriend and I had an amazing experience at Sweet Cottage. The fun started at the airport when Selwyn pick us up and drove us to the cottage. During the ride she pointed out the towns highlights and answered all of my questions about the night life, restaurants, how to get away from touristy attractions, and her personal story. She even offered to stop at the local grocery store so we could stock up on goods prior to settling in for the night. The cottage was exactly what we expected it to be; comfortable and cozy. Selwyn provided fresh linen, towels, kitchen supplies, and plenty of storage space. She even invited us to join her for a bowl of fish stew, made from her sweetie's fresh catch. The shower water was hot, the view was to die for, and the cottage is part of a gated community so we never even locked our door.Mary2014-12-13T00:00:00Z

Absolutely killer spot if you're looking for somewhere with one bed. Jessica's immediately responsive and helpful.Rick2016-05-28T00:00:00Z
we had a great time in st thomas! we barely spent any time in the apartment, but it was still wonderful to wake up every morning with a beautiful view. the space felt private even though the layout is open and breezy. it was easy to gain access to the apartment and everything went smoothly. the location of point pleasant is great -- a few minutes drive to red hook, where took ferries to both st john and tortola. red hook also has some good restaurants and moe's grocery store. we drove about 20 minutes one day to magen's beach, which i'd definitely recommend. we only wish we could have stayed longer!lauren2014-11-27T00:00:00Z
An absolutely beautiful resort condo. We loved it! We wish we could have stayed longer. Everything was great. We had no complaints at all.Jay2014-11-28T00:00:00Z
We had such a great time at Juan and Jessica's condo in STT! The view from the condo was breathtaking and the cross breeze you get when opening up all the sliding glass doors is amazing. We ended up renting a car which made it easy to drive over to the local beaches. Would recommend this place for anyone looking to have control if their vacation and privacy.louisa2014-11-08T00:00:00Z
We stayed in the apartment for a week and we enjoyed it very much, great to wake up in the morning with that view! It looks just like the pictures and is suitable for four people. It has everything you need, even good things to take to the beach. Within walking distance are several beaches, Coki Beach is very nice, but very busy and a bit crowded. We preferred to take our car to Magens Bay is so beautiful (considered one of the top ten in the world). We also took a trip to St. John has nice scenery and stunning beaches, Trunk Bay is recommended. We bought groceries in Red Hook, which is everything you need. We visited two restaurants in Red Hook, Molly Molone's (an Irish pub) and Island Time Pub, both very nice and good food. The only thing that does not quite work perfectly was the Internet, sometimes worked and sometimes did not. It was quite windy so we could not sit out on the balcony as much as we wanted, the benefit of it was that we had no problems with mosquitoes. We really recommend this apartment, it fulfilled everything we wanted, easy to book and to get in touch with Jessica and Juan Carlos. Thank you for letting us stay with you !! His Susanne and EmmaSusanne2015-04-15T00:00:00Z
Jessica's listing was absolutely amazing.. That view does not lie, and the cool breeze that floats through the windows is so refreshing. The wraparound porch was the icing on the cake and I took full advantage of the sunrises. Jessica was super responsive and helpful with all her recommendations.Victoria2016-09-15T00:00:00Z
This condo is BEAUTIFUL! The views are just as spectacular as everyone is describing. The wrap around porch was lovely and the condo itself was spacious and very comfortable! We had just finished a week long sailing charter so this was the perfect spot to relax, refresh, and repack to head back home. We even got take out from the beach bar down below the condo and brought it back - it was that comfortable! Thank you!Lauren2017-02-25T00:00:00Z
Beautiful place, close to everything!! The wrap around balcony was great, we spent a lot of our mornings and nights on the balcony drinking wine and eating cheese. Jessica was super responsive whenever we needed anything :) happy we got to spend it here wouldn't have picked anywhere else. Unbeatable views! Thank you JessicaJulie2016-11-06T00:00:00Z

If you're lucky enough to rent this place, you will love it. This wonderful cottage is on the east end of St. Croix, overlooking Grapetree Bay. It's quiet, peaceful and airy. There's a convenient parking spot just next to the steps leading down through Isabel's lovely garden and into the cottage. The porch is airy and cool with a comfortable sitting and breakfast area. The cottage proper has an extremely comfortable bed, an efficient kitchen and bathroom, and a closet with plenty of storage and drawers. There's no air conditioning, but the overhead fan, seaside breezes and shades keep the cottage cool. Isabel provided an extra fan which we used for a cross breeze when sleeping. For swimming, the path is just at the end of the street. It's a 10-15 minute walk to the nearest bay (Jack's) and 1.5 miles to Isaac's Bay - a slightly shorter hike than from the public access near Point Udall. We had a great time padding around the trails and paddling in the uncrowded bays of east end. Our hostess's adorable black lab, Pedro, was very familiar with the trails and would often hike and swim with us. He was so well mannered and his company was an added bonus. Isabel was a superb hostess. When we arrived, there were maps and brochures for the more popular attractions next to fresh flowers. The cottage was so charming and she'd stocked in a few starter supplies - milk, coffee, rum, beer, some fruit, ice, bottle water, etc. - just enough for a weary traveler to relax upon arrival or start their first day until they had time to get supplies. The wifi worked nicely. There were plenty of towels. The pool area was lovely and so comfortable. After a swim in the sea, the hike back through the savannah park could be very hot, so the pool was perfect for cooling off again. Isabel had all the information a guest needed handily posted, so no need to reference the airbnb posting for the particulars. She checked on us midweek, just to make sure all was going well. We'd been to St. Croix a couple times, so we didn't really have any questions about the area or attractions. It's about a 15 minute drive into Christiansted for dinner, boardwalk or supplies and about 5 minutes to Udall for stargazing.Wendy2015-05-03T00:00:00Z
This is our second time staying here and we absolutely love it! The place is clean and the views are amazing. Isabel is very helpful, thoughtful, and a great host. I would definitely recommend this place.Cheyenne2017-05-12T00:00:00Z
The only thing we didn't like... was leaving! Isabel's cottage is in such a beautiful and safe part of the island. The views were gorgeous and relaxing. She provided great directions to the home and everything was comfortably situated upon arrival. Along with maps, attraction brochures etc, there was a nice bottle of rum to welcome us. On our first day she was very helpful in suggesting ideas for our stay and checked in a couple times during the week via text message. The dogs that everyone mentioned felt like family. They greeted us daily and joined us for hikes and a swim at in the bays. Isabel's pool was a great place to relax after a few of our adventurous mornings. If I'm lucky enough to make it back to St. Croix, I will be booking Isabel's cottage for my stay!Kate2016-01-23T00:00:00Z
One of the most beautiful locations in St. Croix. Just jaw-dropping. Can't say enough.Rich2016-11-11T00:00:00Z
30 steps to paradise is a wonderful place to stay! Our host was extremely welcoming and helpful throughout our stay and the accommodations offered a spectacular view of the ocean, privacy, and access to the pool. We highly recommend this stay for future travelers to St. Crox.Justin2016-03-10T00:00:00Z
30 Steps to Paradise was amazing! All week we talked about how perfect it was. It's near the end on a dead end street so there is essentially no traffic, it's overlooking the ocean from your window, and her dogs Gigi and Pedro made excellent company. It had it's own entrance and was very private. Isabel was wonderful as well. She was very willing to get anything we needed, and suggest places to eat and visit. We would most definitely stay again!!Sarah2016-06-16T00:00:00Z
Isabel's place is truly a jewel. The place was absolutely fantastic with amazing scenic views. The sounds of the sea at night is quite calming. The cottage was great, no mosquitoes or anything of the sort. Pedro and Gigi (their dogs) are beauties and love to hang out whether doing a hike to Goat's Hill, walking along the beach or hanging by the poolside. We highly recommend Isabel's place to anyone!John2017-01-10T00:00:00Z
My boyfriend and I just returned from our second year visiting Isabel's cottage (see review from February 2016). It is aptly named "30 steps from paradise" and has truly become our favorite place on earth (both St. Croix and Isabel's cottage). The breathtaking views and sounds of the waves, the lovely breeze and beautiful setting -- the cottage is a peaceful hideaway. The location is great -- it's private and a bit secluded, but still close enough to town and only a 15 minute hike to a gorgeous beach in a nature preserve, where you will find only a few other people at most. I can't imagine a better place to enjoy a vacation in St. Croix.Emily2017-04-01T00:00:00Z

The view from this place is amazing! Feels like you are sleeping outside. Short drive to Megan's Bay beach. Great deck for hanging out and grilling. Overall we had a great stay!Janaye2017-04-18T00:00:00Z
This location is absolutely stunning! Located just a few minutes from Meghans bay beach, which is literally just down the road from the property. There is also a sweet little private beach even closer ;) The community IS gated w/ 24 hr video surveillance which is a plus and gives a peace of mind while staying there. Peterborg (the area) is my favorite part of the island, not crowded with tourists (huge plus for me). As a host, Selwyn is very accommodating, friendly and just plain awesome! Being on the islands for about 30 years, she knows whats up! She was spot on with her recommendations of cafes, beaches, and tours. She went on a personal trip to the BVI during my stay and even then, the communication was great. She made sure i knew it was perfectly fine to call or text if i needed anything, or had any questions for her. Overall my stay at St. Thomas was great and staying here had alot to do with that! I highly recommend this and any of her other properties because you simply just cant go wrong. A big A+ from me!dennis2015-06-03T00:00:00Z
Selwyn was the most gracious hostess! She gave us ideas for beaches, and restaurants, and whatever else we needed! She was fun to be around! And the view was spectacular!! I would highly recommend staying with her. If we weren't moving to St Thomas I'd say we'd definitely be back!Shelli2015-10-24T00:00:00Z
Selwyn is such an amazing host! As soon as I arrived at the airport, she was there to pick me up because I was not able to get a rental car during the holiday weekend. She stopped by a local grocery store for my breakfast needs the next morning and gave me rides to the beaches whenever she can. The view overlooking Magen's bay is beyond words can describe. I slept so comfortably and enjoyed the patio and outside shower so much. This was the best experience during my entire trip to USVI not only because it's such a beautiful place to stay at but also Selwyn's warm hospitality. I cannot wait to come back to Dovelet soon!Zhen2015-12-26T00:00:00Z
View of Magen's Bay is mesmerizing! We felt instantly at home and relaxed at Selwyn's place. The bed was comfy, LOVED the outdoor shower and the large porch was a great place for a sunrise yoga session. Selwyn provided great suggestions for food and activities. She is perfect host. Can not wait to visit again.Suzanne2017-05-06T00:00:00Z
The Dovelet overlooking Magens Bay was a delightful place to stay. We stayed for two nights and the property was quiet and peaceful. Selwyn is an accomodating and caring host! When we arrived she asked if we were planning on cooking and immediately ran out to fill a propane tank so we could do some grilling on her beautiful and rustic terrace porch. We enjoyed the atmosphere and view so much, My wife and I cooked all but one meal there. the property is secure and quiet and is only a five minute drive to the Beach at Magens bay, and even less to a dairy bar with great "adult" milk shakes. The living space is basically a screened porch with a bed and bathroom and it was a soothing experience to wake up with the sound of birds and rustling palm trees. If you like rustic living and a mellow atmosphere, this place is for you.Reid2015-06-25T00:00:00Z
We stayed at Selwyn's dovelet during the Labor Day weekend. Selwyn was one of the best hosts we have met; she came to pick us up at the airport, when we wrongly decided not to rent a car; told us about bunch of local restaurants. She was happy to drive us places the day we didn't have a car; St Thomas is not walkable and has no sidewalks. The view from the dovelet is really amazing and Magen's Bay beach is literally 5 minutes driving. All in all, we had great stay at the dovelet and if we could to St Thomas, we would definitely stay here.Akshat2015-09-07T00:00:00Z
There is a reason why Selwyn is an Airbnb 'SUPERHOST' - what an incredible stay, in her beautiful, clean, kitted-out 'Dovelet' in paradise. Would recommend to anyone!Lia2016-09-07T00:00:00Z

Had a great time at Villa East! Definitely nice to have the kitchen and all the amenities. Easy to get back and forth to Red Hook and the Ferry to St. John (among others). The wrap around balcony and views were great, especially one morning finding a cool iguana in the tree right outside the window. We also did one of the Morningstar sailboat trips to St. John and it was awesome, it left right from the resort, recommend doing it. Although we had the ability to use the resort shuttle to go up and down the hill, we opted to get our cardio and save the tip instead when we didn't have our luggage. Also, there is a dollar/safari bus stop right near the entrance to PP, that was convenient. This is a cool place and a good value in my opinion. Only two things I wished were different would be better pillows and more hot water....but neither were that big of a deal. Would definitely stay again.Jeff2014-02-03T00:00:00Z
This place is excellent! Its right on the water! Between the ocean waves and the night time rain, I got the best sleep I've ever had!Jacob2014-02-04T00:00:00Z
Villa East was exactly as described in the listing. It's such a peaceful and relaxing location with a view that's tough to beat. Alan is a great host and I would absolutely recommend this to anyone considering, we hope to be back soon!Michael2015-01-01T00:00:00Z
Our stay here was so fantastic! We'd never been to the Virgin Islands before and now I can't wait to come back. We live a block from the water in Laguna Beach, so I don't usually expect to get blown away by beach time, but this trip exceeded all my expectations. This was absolutely the perfect place to stay - the staff at Point Pleasant was SO NICE and friendly, the bar/restaurant Jack's is just a few steps away and we loved the bartenders, the drinks, the food, and the ambiance... we could have spent so many more hours there! We were also blown away by how nice all the locals were - we met so many fantastic and interesting people. St. Thomas might be home to world's nicest people. We came with big plans to spend time at Magens Bay and even take the ferry over to St. John, but after our first afternoon at Coki Beach (just a 10 minute walk from the room) we didn't want to spend time anywhere else. What a fantastic beach. I loved everything about it. Also, we were nervous about our decision to not rent a car while we were on the island, but in the end we were so glad we didn't. The Point Pleasant staff will shuttle you from the resort lobby to the main road, where you can catch a safari bus like a local for a dollar per person down to Redhook, or for another dollar, to Charlotte Amalie. We met so many incredibly nice locals - at Coki Beach and in Redhook (Island Time Pub was by far our favorite hangout) and I seriously cannot wait until we make it back. Thanks Alan for such a great place to stay!Jennifer2012-08-18T00:00:00Z
This villa could not have been any more perfect for our stay on the island. The interior was exactly as promised and the view from the porch was amazing! You really can hear the waves coming up to the terrace and look out at all of the boats anchored in the bay right there. The location couldn't have been any better - not only is the resort really nice, you can also zip down to Red Hook or back into town really easily. I would definitely stay here again when I go back if it's available!Lauren2015-08-08T00:00:00Z
Our experience was awesome! There were so many things to do around that side of the island, without being immersed in a populated area. We liked being close enough to the areas like red hook and Charlotte Amalie, and right inbetween the beaches Megan's Bay, Coki, and Sapphire. Would highly recommend a jeep, as it helped us with the rocky roads on some parts of the island, and it was easy to beach hop. The place was very comfortable, and awesome to wake up and see the water in the mornings.Tyler2015-03-11T00:00:00Z
This place truly is paradise. We saw 12 amazing beaches in 5 days and Villa East was the perfect home base for our adventures. The views are even better than the photos show. We woke up every morning to have breakfast next to the iguanas sitting in the trees just a few feet away. Alan was extremely responsive and provided all the info we needed to plan our trip. We plan to go back to this exact place as soon as possible.Timothy2016-12-10T00:00:00Z
Villa East at Point Pleasant is a great place to stay. It's close enough to things like Redhook and the Tutu mall but far enough away to feel "out there". The room was a great size for the two of us. I could wake up to the view from the room any day. We rented a jeep to get around the island and I would recommend that for anyone thinking about visiting. Parking is easy at the resort and, as long as you can remember to drive on the left, its a great way to get out and see stuff. Alan was also a great help with tips and ideas for what to do when we visited. He certainly knows the island and always responded to requests promptly. We especially liked his recommendation for Morningstar Charters. Check it out if you have the chance. All in all, Villa East is a great place to set up base camp to explore St Thomas, St John and the many other islands close-by. My wife and I would definitely recommend this place to people looking for a safe, clean, affordable option for visiting the USVI.Ryan2012-10-07T00:00:00Z

My stay on water island was nothing short of a dream. The property is set up to be as secluded or as communal as you would like. Debbie gave a wonderful tour of the island as soon as I got there. The place is so full of life and love that I'm already planning my next trip back. Robyn is such a gracious and generous host and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. She has truly one of the biggest hearts I've ever met. The shack has breathtaking views of the islands, so much fun wildlife on the property (the turtles were my favorite), 10min walk from honeymoon beach. Truly paradise. The sense of community at the shack is unparalleled. I met so many great people from different walks of life. The shack just inherently generates a connectedness you don't find often. My heart swells when thinking of my time there. Don't forget to bring bug spray! And it's always handy to have cash for the ferry and taxisEmily2016-07-20T00:00:00Z
We had a great time at Robyn's Bohemian Retreat and Water Island! We stayed in a yurt that had a large, comfy bed, mosquito net, and great view of the ocean. We enjoyed meeting and getting to know the other visitors staying at the retreat and exploring the grounds and nearby beaches. Robyn was super responsive during and prior to our stay and greeted us at the ferry dock upon our arrival. This is a fun, rustic, outdoorsy place with a great sense of community.Melissa & Grant2015-05-22T00:00:00Z
Perhaps a little too Bohemian for a 50-something with a 4 hour bladder. Debbie was great (never actually saw Robyn) and Robyn was always very responsive. The site is beautiful and fun, we felt welcomed and comfortable - definitely good value for the price! 'Whole House' (tree house) is a bit of a stretch if you think a house includes a toilet - truly my only caveat to the stay. Tree house was adorable and private, talking rock was amazing, can't say enough about Water Island and the beach - more beautiful than words can describe!Tim2016-04-30T00:00:00Z
We had such a wonderful stay here on Water Island. The grounds are beautiful and the Boho Butterfly Cottage was magical. Every morning we ate breakfast at talking rock and then walked the five minutes down to the beach. Robyn and Jurgen were amazing hosts and we felt right at home immediatley! Definatley will be visiting again! It was such a treat to stay here:) Do remember to bring some food and alcohol if you want to have snacks or do any cooking as there are only two restaurants on the island located at both ends of the beach. We did breakfast every morning then went down to the beach for lunch and dinner. Looking forward to returning soon!Brittney2016-02-10T00:00:00Z
We had the best time with Robyn and her family. From the pickup at the airport to the family dinners it has been like home for us. Also it was a very unique and new experience for me and my son. The island is small but beautiful, St Thomas only a stone throw away, and the closest beach mind blowing. We would and will come back for sure.Oliver 2016-08-25T00:00:00Z
Wonderful stay. Absolutely no problem or complaints. It was all very much as advertised but more & better. We would certainly stay here again. We loved the separation of many of the rooms. It is also high with good winds.Lynn2017-02-10T00:00:00Z
Wow. There really aren't enough gracious words we can express to show our gratitude towards Mrs Robyn, Miss Debbie (of course Ginger), Liz and literally everyone on Water Island. We had an adventurous honeymoon in mind and this quite literally hit the nail on the head as the most relaxing adventure we could have taken. Chalk this up as another fantastic review of a fantastic place. Glamp for life with my helluva wife!Colton2016-05-07T00:00:00Z

We had an amazing time snorkeling and on the island! We only had a few days but were able to explore St. John being so close to the ferry. Great experience and interesting beach!Corbin2016-05-04T00:00:00Z
This unit had a great location, excellent beach, awesome views, and was very comfortable for four of us for a week stay. Bianca was very communicative and the whole check in/out process was a breeze. If you're planning on staying a long time, note that laundry facilities is shared and coin operated. Also, definitely bring your own booze, the drinks at the beach bar are delicious but on the weak side ;)Thani2017-05-13T00:00:00Z
Absolutely perfect place to stay on St. Thomas island! Ideal for my parents, little sisters and I. We didn't spend too much time in the condo except to sleep, but all 3 beds were so comfy! There are friendly iguanas that get fed on the beach in the mornings. My sisters loved that. And the condo is right on sapphire beach which really is one of the best beaches on St. Thomas. The location is also perfect for getting the the ferry to go to St. John! Maho Bay and Cinnamon Beach were our favorite snorkeling spots on St. John. Thanks for everything, Bianca!Tara2016-06-05T00:00:00Z
The description is accurate, and the place was beautiful. I will definitely stay here again. The view was even better than I imagined and the condo is only feet from the water.Holly2016-01-25T00:00:00Z
Our stay here was an exceptional experience. Ji Shen has not left a leaf unturned to make her home comfortable for her guests. Attention to details and clean. She has snorkel gears, noodles, sand toys for kids, beach towels and a cooler for the guests. There is tablet for use and cable with Hulu plus. I had everything available to me from the time I woke up to when we got back tired and wanted to watch our favorite shows on Hulu. We are sure to return and highly recommend this place. She is kind, responsive and a thoughtful host. Sometimes it takes more than just location to complete your experience :).Marquis2015-04-29T00:00:00Z
This is an absolutely lovely unit with two very spacious and tastefully decorated floors. Bring your own food, but the kitchen is very well kitted out, cook to your hearts desire, Bianca and Paul have done a great job, terrific kitchen set up. Shop in Red Hook before arrival, buy fresh fish at the marina attached to the complex. Boats come in at 10 am and 4pm ish. Don't plan on walking into town as the roads are rather narrow, but cabs are approximately $12 each way. Truly, stock up before you arrive. Lemons, garlic, fresh fruits and veggies, etc, and you will be in terrific shape. It's a fabulous kitchen. Cruise ship passengers and other visitors are allowed on the beach, and they stake their spots out rather early. However, if you go to the pool, you can sit on a spectacular secluded beach with marvelous view and no intrusions as security checks in regularly to make sure only guests are present. Beach + pool = perfection. Best of both worlds. The views from the balcony was absolutely our favorite thing about the stay. It is absolutely magical. The bird watching is spectacular, the sunrises and sunsets are astonishing. Final notes - Bianca is a super responsive hostess, I can't thank her enough or more highly reccomend this accommodation.Jenny2017-05-19T00:00:00Z
Great host with an amazing packet of information sent to me in advance. The host is amazing and as described. It is literally right on the beach as part of a private group of condos. All the fixtures are new and the house is well stocked with utensils and beach towels and beach toys. It was a great stay and I appreciate how much the host went out of her way to accommodate me.Avi2015-01-07T00:00:00Z

The best part of the house is the view. Amazing... too bad I couldn't enjoyed it as much. The owner was very nice and chill. Thanks for the hospitality...Carolina 2017-03-22T00:00:00Z
Very welcoming. Easy directions. Excellent place. Clean, quiet, private. What a view!Matthew & Elisa2016-01-14T00:00:00Z
Kendra was there is greet us and show us the ropes at Escape to Paradise on St. Thomas, USVI. She is very friendly and knows the island well. The unit was as describe and the VIEW FROM DECK IS WORLD CLASS!!.... I have the pics to prove it... the road up is interesting as are all roads in the Virgin Islands... but our Toyota Yaris was all we needed.... a Jeep would be better IF YOU CAN AFFORD to rent one. If you are looking for affordable accommodations w/ a a unbelievable view.... this is the place for you. As airbnb hosts ourselves... we would return to this slice of Heaven in a heartbeat.Andy & Judy2016-03-20T00:00:00Z
This is a small studio apt sited near the top of the mountain on St. Thomas. It is well appointed and clean, but tiny and hard for two people to move around in. The outside deck was excellent. We thought it was a bit overpriced considering other AirBnB options out there. The host was pleasant and the owner was very nice, too. They have friendly dogs.Jeffrey2016-03-02T00:00:00Z
I cannot say enough for the hospitality that Kendra and Jennifer offered us! They were EXTREMELY helpful and friendly, and had everything set up for us upon arrival. Very responsive before, during, and after our stay -- great advice on places to go. Above all, they are THE BEST people to hang out with! The room was very well taken care of. Clean sheets, not a single spot that was not meticulously cleaned (beats many MANY top rated hotels I've been at), and a spotless bathroom with all the necessary cosmetics and whatnot (even sun screen and after-sun lotion!). Very quiet and private, air condition, internet access -- everything was there! Bonus, the adorable dogs! But let's get to the most interesting part now. This is REALLY PARADISE! The photos on the Airbnb listing are simply NOT ENOUGH to match the true beauty of the place! The view is BREATHTAKING, the patio is the best place in the world to chill and have a drink, and you feel you are ONE with the surrounding nature. Overall, there are no words to describe how strongly I recommend going with this listing. We will go back again and again and again, and we trust Kendra HANDS DOWN!Konstantinos2015-07-27T00:00:00Z
This is one of the best Airbnb experiences I've ever had! Kendra and Jenn are super awesome and welcoming hosts. They helped us navigate our way around St. Thomas and were more than happy to show us the best places to go and see. The room is cozy and the porch is AMAZING. My boyfriend and I spent a whole morning just relaxing and taking in the view of all islands as a storm brewed in the distance. It was definitely a day that I will always remember!Juliana2016-03-27T00:00:00Z
We had a great stay at Kendra's! The place was gorgeous and the hosts were friendly and very accommodating. Kendra was very welcoming and gave some great tips to local beaches and sights!Dion2016-05-11T00:00:00Z

Jessica could not have been a better host. This was our first booking with AIRBNB and Jessica made it so very simple for us. She provided detailed information on check in in as well as some great local tips and recommendations. Aside from all of this, the apartment was comfortable for the 2 of us. The BEST thing about the apartment was the view. The pictures did not lie! it was spectacular! We didn't need the AC at all because of the breeze from the sliders although I did put it on one night when it rained and the breeze was blowing in. All in all, I can't wait to go back to this unit.Len2016-07-10T00:00:00Z
This was a lovely relaxing couple nights on St. Thomas. Let me echo others, the view was so amazing! I enjoyed the nature trail and snorkeling Sugar Beach (facing the water, swim to the right and lobsters are hiding nearby). I slept with all the windows open and loved the howling wind. Yoga classes are offered by the Spa onsite. I was excited about that but heavy rains caused them to be cancelled. Shoreline Grill is just under the condo and very convenient for a meal or drink. The condo was clean and well equipped for basic needs. Plenty of dry spices for cooking too.Loretta2016-08-06T00:00:00Z
Jessica's apartment was perfect and just what we were looking for. The views from the balcony were amazing. Jessica was super helpful and accommodating. She was a pleasure to work withRyan 2016-11-22T00:00:00Z
Had a little issue with the air conditioning nit working, otherwise great location, price, and view.javi2017-05-09T00:00:00Z
We had a great time! Loved being able to walk over to Coral World and Coki Beach. Having access to the pools was nice too, for times when you want to swim without the sand. I really liked sleeping with the patio doors open and hearing the ocean waves below.Chris2017-02-23T00:00:00Z
Great location, private but close to some great restaurants and beaches! Easy to get around to really anywhere on the island via taxi or car! The view from the room is just as its pictured, so beautiful. This was a perfect spot for a weekend away, highly recommend!Samantha2017-03-13T00:00:00Z

I have been using air bnb for a few years now and this was the best host interaction experience! John, Gabrielle, Hannah and John John were the best family to have on St Croix! Their space is beautiful and clean and safe! The family was so helpful and kind to me during my stay. I feel as though I will always have friends/family on the island after staying with them. I highly recommend staying in either of their spaces available! I will definitely be back to stay with them.Ashley2016-03-30T00:00:00Z
This is an amazing apartment in the middle of Christiansted. Everything is walking distance, and the place itself is just so inviting and pretty. The apartment had everything we needed and more. John was very helpful with all our questions - absolutely recommended.Line2017-01-26T00:00:00Z
We came to St. Croix to do researching about our great-great-great great grandfather who lived here in (PHONE NUMBER HIDDEN). We found what we looked for. Besides we found a wonderful appointment in the center of Christiansted and a hospitable host who did everything for us. We return home with a lot of good memories of a beautiful city full of smiling and friendly people. The apartment exceeded our expectations, two good bedrooms, two bathrooms and an excellent kitchen with a dining table. All very well-functioning inclusive internet and air conditioning. Everything was clean and neat. Idyllic garden with plenty of space to enjoy both sun and shade. The backyard is locked onto the street, so we could constantly feel completely safe.Anne2016-12-03T00:00:00Z
John and Gabrielle are wonderful hosts and their adorable apt is immaculate! Everything we needed for our 4 night stay in the heart of Christiansted. Ample room for 4 pax, though we were only 2, the kitchen has what you need to make your own meals. Grocery stores are not far by rental car. From the location you are walking distance to really good restaurants, waterfront, dive operations, shops and historical sights! We look forward to our next visit!Tanya2016-07-19T00:00:00Z
Nice place to stay in Christiansted if you have to work or just on holiday. Convenietly located and tastefully decorated.Renée2017-04-25T00:00:00Z
I would HIGHLY recommend staying with John. My girlfriend and I didn't know what to expect because this was our first AirBnB experience. John was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and accommodating. He went above and beyond. Plus, the room was even nicer than the pictures implied. Stay with John and you will not be disappointed, trust me.Chris2016-07-04T00:00:00Z
This was my first time traveling to St. Croix and I will definitely be going back. John and Gabrielle were fabulous hosts! Their recommendations for places to go were spot on. They both have very warm and friendly personalities and were always available if we had any questions or needed anything. I feel that the best part of the trip was getting to know them and their family. I can see why they moved there fifteen plus years ago, as it's beautiful and the locals are so friendly. I also enjoyed getting to know their teenage daughter, who took me shopping to some great places. She was able to help me find some things for my teenage daughter! The whole family escorted us to "Jump Up" (a carnival like cultural party held in the streets, only comes 4x a year). We had a blast and it felt like we had known them for years. The apartment truly felt like home.. actually, better than home. It was better than I had imagined.. Everything is newly remodeled and delightfully decorated. The beds (and bedding!) were very comfortable. There were thick white plushy (spa like) robes to relax in.. I liked the fact my friend and I had our own bathrooms. There is AC and high ceiling fans to keep the temperature perfect. I love to cook and the kitchen had everything I needed. Gabrielle took us grocery shopping, which was extremely helpful. We never really felt the need to rent a car. Upon arrival, there was a lovely bowl of fruit and treats on the counter for us. You can eat in the kitchen or on the outdoor patio/courtyard. There is also a nice grill that I used too. Relaxing in the courtyard was wonderful, as you are tucked away from the streets with privacy, yet conveniently located to everything when you walk outside of it. The boardwalk and beach are very close by as well. It was great to be able to walk around to everything. I liked the fact that the door to the courtyard has a security code and I felt very safe there. They are also the owners of the Frongillo Salon, which is adjacent to the courtyard housing. I had my hair and make-up done on my birthday and they did an amazing job! I truly felt like a celebrity! I had a wonderful trip and that was due to John and Gabrielle. Their attention to detail is outstanding and everything was top-notch. They went above and beyond with their hospitality and generosity. Truly, wonderful people.. I am already planning my next trip and would highly recommend staying at their lovely tropical courtyard apartment.Renee2016-02-15T00:00:00Z
John made us feel very welcome! The place was perfect!! We wanted to move in! John had all of the essentials in the kitchen, and even left us some extras--which was great because we hadn't arranged for breakfast. John and his family treated us like old friends. We were able to use his grill, and he provided grilling tools as well! We would definitely HIGHLY recommend this place. It is so convenient to the Christiansted pier...we were able to walk to everything we needed or wanted. John and his family contributed to this being an amazing vacation and adventure for us!Tracy2016-06-03T00:00:00Z

What an experience to stay on a sailboat! It is small but it has everything you need. Since the boat is so close to Latitude 18, you will never get bored at night. Jeremy is very nice, he even gave us a boat ride to the ferry so we can catch it. We enjoyed it so much, thank you Jeremy!Sisi & Xikang2015-02-08T00:00:00Z
Jeremy is a great guy and was a fantastic host. He was very helpful with directions, as (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) maps doesn't work well when driving on the island. The boat is right next to Latitude 18 which has some of the best food on St. Thomas and really nice live music every night. The boat is small but a great option for 1-2 people.James2014-12-07T00:00:00Z
I'm back home in Buffalo and I'm trying to think of an appropriate description of my vacation... It was a cross between an Earnest Hemingway novel and the TV show Cheers. I came to St. Thomas, a single traveler, with no real expectations and left with enough stories to write a novel of my own. It wasn't a vacation filled with tourist activities, but one that allowed me to experience the true flavor of the Caribbean. My "condo" was just what was described. It was clean and comfortable living quarters that gave me a place to rest and recharge between enjoying the magnificent beauty of the island. I spent four days, and I feel like I've made a whole group of new friends at Latitude 18, each one with a story that brought them to St. Thomas. Thanks Jeremy, Sammy, Alex, Carl, Ben, Foster, Alex and Travis, and anyone else whose name I've forgotten. I will definitely be booking again in the future.Paul 2017-05-18T00:00:00Z
Jeremy couldn't be a more amazing host. Our boat was clean and a fun experience, situated right next to an amazing restaurant/bar. He was even kind enough to give us a ride to the ferry on his dinghy. We'd love to come visit again. Total value for money.Brendan2015-08-01T00:00:00Z
The perfect escape from reality. The space and location was perfect!Rodney2016-01-21T00:00:00Z
We needed an overnight at short notice and Jeremy's response was immediate. He picked us up at a time convenient for us and had our luggage held at the restaurant/bar Latitude 18 next to the boat until it was ready for use, and showed us the beach just steps away. Latitude 18 was packed on the night we stayed - Saturday - and we loved the food there as well as the music, also audible from the boat. Thankfully no mosquitoes that night, since there was no equivalent of a tent flap on the boat to zip up and keep them out. After staying at typical tourist accommodation we saw a more realistic side of life in St. Thomas here.Pat2016-01-24T00:00:00Z
The boat was in an excellent location and Jeremy was very helpful and super friendly!Erin2014-11-21T00:00:00Z
This was our second time staying in Jeremy's beautiful sail boat. This is the perfect place to rent if you're somewhat bohemian and want to stay away from the ugly tourist areas. Red hook is within walkable distance and in my opinion, is the nicest town on st. thomas. This place is great for people who love to go to bed with the ocean rocking you to sleep, want live music every night a few steps from the boat dock, like to meet people and wake up to a beautiful view of the marina. This would not be a good fit for uptight people, people without a love of adventure or need to wake up early (the gentle rocking of the boat will keep you in be until about 10). If you are that type of person, stick to the resorts and don't ruin the vibe for the rest of us. Thanks!hannah2015-01-08T00:00:00Z

Someone pinch me! I must be dreaming! Life on the catamaran with Risky Ray and Brenda is everything you could hope for from a vacation in the caribbean. Good food, good laughs, great snorkeling, fun sailing, a full moon in a quiet bay, cocktails, comfortable beds, showers, sunsets, pristine beaches, no crowds, no skeeters, no worries! Do not hesitate to book your stay...you will be so very happy you did!jeanne2011-11-12T00:00:00Z
We just finished our stay with ray and Brenda and can't even describe what an amazing time we had! We went for part of our honeymoon and wished we had booked the whole thing with them. The boat was huge and clean, food amazing ( ray found out I liked chocolate and made the best chocolatinis and brownies!) , snorkel spots secluded and best of all great company! This couple goes out of their way to make you feel welcome and show you an amazing time. We're hoping to return for another trip for our 1 yr anniversary! Thanks ray and Brenda!samantha2012-05-26T00:00:00Z
I don't think we can say enough nice things about Brenda and Ray. We went down to kiteboard around the Virgin Islands, and even though the wind did not cooperate, we had a great time diving, sailing, eating drinking and being merry. Ray and Brenda went above and beyond to provision for us, pick us up at the airport, show us around on land, on the sea, and under the sea SCUBA diving. Fantastic hosts, and we hope to see them again soon. Ray is so easy going, he puts you at ease right from the start. He really makes the island hopping look deceptively easy; a real sign of competence. This experience is probably best for those with some nautical experience, a sense of adventure, and those physically fit.Walter2014-03-20T00:00:00Z
WOW!!! Usually I am not one that is lost for words, but this trip with Ray and Brenda took my breath away. Right from day 1 they made us feel at home and comfortable. I knew that I was in good hands. This experience was once in a lifetime. Ray and Brenda worked with us to make a personalized adventure including private beaches, local bars, The Bathes (with a viewing of the Queen of Englands private boat), snorkeling, swimming with sharks, seeing ship wrecks... I could go on and on. It is amazing how much we were able to fit into 3 days, 2 nights. My best advice to you is to just book it, not only with you end up with great memories but you will also end up with new friends. Hope to see you again Ray and Brenda!!! :)Tia2015-10-26T00:00:00Z

We had a fantastic week cruising the Virgin Islands with Ray & Brenda. They are fun loving, welcoming hosts who ensure that your group has a great experience. The boat is spacious and comfortable, and very fun to sail. Ray knows all of the good swim/snorkel spots, and all of the great places to get a painkiller. It's so hard to come back home and have "regular" and not "paradise" coffee every morning. I can't wait to get back down there.Kieran2015-04-02T00:00:00Z
We just returned from a week with Captain Ray. I was a little bit worried about what to expect but I put my trust in Ray and we had a trip of a lifetime. Breakfast was amazing and plentiful. There was many a day we didn't eat dinner because we were still full. Ray's wife was in the US for our week, so we didn't get to meet her. We did have the honor of Ray's partner, Roberta, to help out. She was a ray of sunshine and extremely knowledgeable about everything in the sea. She took us to all her favorite spots and we will never forget it. We loved island hopping, waking up in secluded spots, and hitting up some great bars. If you go to Saba Rock, try the bushwhackers. I am addicted. I'm still trying to figure out how to make this trip happen again next year. I promise you will not be dissapointed. Thank you, Risky Ray and Roberta!!!Lindsay2016-04-25T00:00:00Z

Beautiful location and a great value. The house had everything we needed. Shira was very friendly and helpful. Can't wait to come back!Kristina2014-08-06T00:00:00Z
Clean efficiency apartment on the quiet side of St. John. Well situated to explore Coral Bay, East End, and the national park. The view from the apartment is amazing. Comfortable bed. The kitchen is small but well-equipped. We had most of our meals at the apartment. We were not thrilled with most of the restaurants nearby. Our favorite was Aqua Bistro. Sunday brunch at Lucy's was also relaxing. Having beach chairs and a cooler in the apartment to take to the nearby beaches was a plus. The one day that we left our lunch in our backpacks while we went snorkeling in Waterlemon Bay (a must), the mongooses attacked our backpacks while we were in the water. We should have used the cooler. If you are going to drive, rent a Jeep. This is not only because of the very steep and rutted driveway to Shira's apartment, but also all of the roads on St. John are mountainous. I believe that there are a couple places that we would have been stuck without 4WD. There is no gas station on the Coral Bay side of the island, only in Cruz Bay. You will be getting poor mileage, so plan accordingly. For outings, Mahiya-Virgin Magic Charters offers small (4-6 guests) sailing/snorkeling trips with one of the most interesting skippers/environmentalists that you will meet. We also loved doing a kayak trip with Arawak Expeditions. You can rent snorkeling equipment, kayaks from Crabby's in Coral Bay. There is a family living above you at Shira's. Because you are in the basement, you will hear them at times. Shira was very welcoming and had a lot of information about places to go in the apartment.David2016-01-22T00:00:00Z
Shira was a great host! We were fortunate enough to have friends on the island who know there way around, so Shira was able to meet us close to her place and show us exactly how to get there. Once you go the first time, it's simple to get back! Quaint little spot, secluded, with a small deck and a kitchen you can function in if you prefer to home cook during your visit. The views are wonderful, and take Shira's advice about the curtains in the morning, the sunrise if beautiful but if you want to sleep in, that sun gets bright real quick! The only thing I would say, and it isn't a negative in any way, is that if you rent a vehicle on the island, definitely get a Jeep or a SUV with 4x4 as the driveway is a bit steep, but the Jeep handled it easily. If you get a car, you'll regret it, but that's more of a statement for the entire island. Thank you, Shira, for making the end of our island visit stay stress-free! We appreciated your hospitalityErik2015-10-22T00:00:00Z
Shira was welcoming and kind. The space was clean and just as pictured. We were happy to stay here and would recommend this space. There were plenty of towels (&beach) sand toys floats cooler beach chair. No laundry on site but matt is 10 min down street. It was a perfect vaca for our family of 4 .. The loft bed was great for the kids!Jennifer2015-02-19T00:00:00Z
Fantastic stay, we had the best time on St. John. Shira offered to meet us at the ferry but we ended up just meeting her closer to home. Room was clean and relaxing, very nice to have a kitchen. Amazing view of the water.Jason2014-08-27T00:00:00Z
Shira is a wonderful host, and her apartment is a true gem on this beautiful island! She made sure that the stay was perfect, and even made an effort to come pick us up from the ferry, about 25 minutes driving away. Shira is a wonderful host that makes sure her cute apartment is in perfect order. I highly recommend her place to anyone that is considering to visit St. John, her apartment with the beautiful view is so much nicer and more authentic than any resort in the area.Rolf2014-07-08T00:00:00Z
Cute space in a peaceful secluded area of the island but still next to convenience store, restaurant, and of course beaches. Shira met us at the intersection of Rt 10 and 107 and we followed to her property up on a hill. She showed us around our room and took time to sit down with a map and give us the "scoop" on all the island had to offer. Room had everything we could need for the trip including beach chairs and a cooler! Nice deck with a grill and chairs to sit on to enjoy the awesome view. Good place to stay at with an affordable price.Juvy2015-08-29T00:00:00Z
Shira gives a good experience of what it is like to live on StJohn. As she said, paradise is not without its problems. We didn't have power outages or water shortages, but the apartment is really hot. We were waiting for cooling Caribbean breezes in the evening, which never came. We did eat dinner on the deck and enjoyed watching the full moon rise. But breakfast in the morning was scorching on the deck. We tried to get to the beach as soon as we could and stay out the whole day. And after all, the reason you choose St John is for incredible snorkeling on beach after beach.Jean-Marie2016-08-21T00:00:00Z

Susan's Hideaway was a fantastic place to stay! My husband and I found it to be the perfect spot to base out of and explore the entire island. Susan was a great host, making sure to reach out to us via text to check up on our arrival and was even available to give us a ride to the ferry on our last day. The small kitchenette was great to save a little money, and with A/C, wifi, and an outdoor shower we were pretty much in heaven!Meg2016-08-13T00:00:00Z
Susan's place is nice and cozy. Kitchen was well equipped to make a quick meal and the location is close to Cruz Bay as well as the many beaches.Kelly2017-04-08T00:00:00Z
Susan and John were absolutely awesome. I took my newly wedded wife to their private house on St. John and it was perfect for us. They were both extremely hospitable and helped show us the best places to explore on St. John. They even went as far as to help me get our rental car back on the road when I got a flat tire. They are exellent down to earth people and host an awesome private house that we enjoyed every minute of.Robert2016-05-31T00:00:00Z
Close to everything, very private feeling and cute place. Susan has it stocked with all the things you should need, like pans and utensils, some tupperware etc. Very comfortable, we loved it.Julie2017-02-13T00:00:00Z
Susan's place was very cute and clean. The outside shower was a surprise, but we loved it. We loved that she supplied a set of beach chairs that we could use.Kevin2017-03-30T00:00:00Z
Susan was incredibly thoughtful and helpful and a perfect host. For our first day she provided directions to get to her place by cab. One thing to realize is that can drivers primarily use landmarks for direction and not addresses. Susan also told us about the trail heads just at the top of Gift Hill - we ended up using these every day to get down to the beach and into town. It was a beautiful 30-40 minute walk down to Caneel / Saloman / Honeymoon Bays and we highly recommend visiting both! Further bay trips will definitely require a cab ride - like Maho Bay if you want to snorkel and see sea turtles and rays and other stuff. She was also kind enough to give us a ride on a couple occasions to get to a charter boat for a British Virgin Islands trip on time in the morning (and not have to rely on a cab coming) and on our last day to the ferry. We loved every minute on the islands and we will be back in the near future!Kevin2015-07-10T00:00:00Z
Susan and her hideaway were absolutely wonderful! The space was perfect, nicely decorated, clean and well supplied. Susan gave us recommendations for restaurants and how to get around without a vehicle--she even dropped us off near a grocery store when we first arrived and drove us to the ferry on our way out. We used her trail and a nat geo map to navigate our hikes and bus/hike to the north shore beaches. Hawks Nest is about a 20 min hike away. Our favorite beach was Trunk Bay (take bus south on centerline for a $1 and ask them to let you off at Catherineberg estate ruins/john heads road and walk down to north shore road then go left for Trunk Bay and right for Cinnamon Bay) which is about a40-45 min pleasant walk. After the beach we would take the taxi to Cruz Bay to eat and then back to gift hill road, which was about $17-20 total ($6 from Beach to Cruz Bay $7 back to Susan's on Gift Hill plus tip) per person after tip. We plan to return to Susan's place, permanently... We wish! But definitely to explore the south shore of St John. We had a very relaxing stay and highly recommend! Thank you Susan! Lilly and BenBenjamin2015-08-07T00:00:00Z
This hideaway is perfect! I don't like touristy places and this was the best little spot to get away from the hotel and cruise liner travelers. It is about a 10 min drive to the city of Cruz bay. You for sure need a car of you stay here. It was safe and you can hitch hike, which I did. But for exploring the island it is better to have a car. Susan was great! She picked us up at the ferry and we went to a grocery store before we got to the apartment. She also gave little tour around Cruz bay which was very helpful. The hideaway is just as described. There is a 2 burner unit, you need to level it so cooking can be done evenly. Food is expensive on the island so we cooked and it was nice to have pots pans And whatnot. I would stay again at this hideaway.Kristina2014-12-18T00:00:00Z

**A Home away from Home** Staying with Kathy and Randall at Caribbean Breeze was an amazing experience!!! Although I stayed only 3 nights, I experienced the charms of island life, great local (and fresh) cuisine, and amazing scenic views of the jewel that is St. Croix. From hiking to the sea urchin filled tide pools to eating the most incredible, blackened fish tacos at Rowdy Joes, I filled my camera up with pictures and more importantly, memories that will last a lifetime. Kathy and Randall were generous to give me a lift to their home and later back to the airport. They are well versed on the island and some how seem to know every person in Fredericksted :) I couldn't have asked for better hosts—down-to-earth, friendly, generous. I did not get to go scuba diving, so I plan to go back again next October for part two of my St. Croix adventure :) Thanks Kathy and Randall!!!!nick2014-10-07T00:00:00Z
Kathy and Ray were great! Offered to pick us up, gave good directions, and welcomed us warmly.. Including our two pups! They even had a place fenced off on a patio just for them. Their place is green and earthy with plants, trees, and the geckos and birds that live there. West end is quiet and the beaches were beautiful... Would stay there again ! Also, if you have a question, just ask either of them.. They know or can find out!John2015-03-14T00:00:00Z
My friend and I had the pleasure of staying in the Baybreeze unit for 5 nights and everything was just so lovely. We initially booked a different unit and Kathy offered an upgrade to this unit at no additional cost to accommodate a family with the lower level unit. We were very pleased with the Baybreeze unit as it is spacious, very clean, and very comfortable. When we first arrived, we were greeted by Kathy and Randy who are both very friendly and make you feel at home. Their courtyard is large and there is plenty of beautiful places to sit to watch the iguanas in the trees. The pool was super nice as well. Their place is within walking distance to several shops, restaurants, and the beach. There is a wonderful beach bar called Freedom City Surf that has good food, drinks, and an amazing place to watch the sunset. We both really loved the area and found it to be very safe to walk around and everybody was really friendly. I already wish i was back there hanging out in the courtyard drinking my morning coffee. :)Allison2017-01-16T00:00:00Z
Kathy was super attentive and the courtyard feels a lot nicer than the pics.Siva2016-08-17T00:00:00Z
Kathy and Randy were outstanding hosts; they were attentive, flexible, friendly and there when you needed them. They had a great local knowledge, and were full of helpful hints. The room was fantastic, and accurately described. I arrived a bit before planned, and Kathy was nice enough to let me hang out in the room while she finished cleaning it up, which I must say was a very thorough cleaning. St croix is gorgeous, and frederiksted is unique in its own way. My girlfriend and I will be back, and most likely staying with Kathy and Randy again.Mike2016-07-25T00:00:00Z
This is my second trip in 6 months and will continue to travel back to St. Croix and Caribbean Breeze. Kathy (and Randy) are great hosts and provide invaluable insight and knowledge about the island. They provided us transportation to/from the airport which is always a comforting way to start and end our vacation. Their accommodations are beautifully decorated, large in size, comfortable and clean. Wifi, cable and updated amenities. It's just like being at home - but you're not! The condos/vacation rentals are perfectly located within blocks of the beach, quaint shops and the pier. This trip was filled with many nights BBQ'ing in their courtyard and I can't wait until the addition of the pool! This place has it all. We spent many days enjoying the beautiful beaches in Fredriksted and even a few on the east/north shore. There's no shortage of blue skies and crystal clear waters. Enjoyed hikes to an abandoned hotel, abandoned lighthouse and the infamous tide pools. It was so nice to get some exercise while enjoying some history of the island. Enjoyed the full day boat tour snorkeling at Buck Island. Rode horses through the rainforest, beachside and watched the sun set. Art show and live jazz on the pier to finish the trip. Do yourself a favor. Plan a trip to St. Croix and reserve your condo with Caribbean Breeze. I might have to agree with the locals - "west is best". Thanks Kathy and Randy for another great getaway! I'll be back...Karen2015-10-19T00:00:00Z
Large apartment with ample space for cooking and eating. little dark apartment. The garden not quite as welcoming yet due to rebuilding. The hosts are nice and helpful.Gitte2016-12-29T00:00:00Z
We had a great stay at Randy and Kathy's place. The apartment was a fun mix of new and old, and we felt warmly welcomed into their circle of family and friends. In fact, they invited us to some activity just about every day! Although we never turned on the AC on, the apartment stayed pretty cool. And don't forget the chihuahuas! Living in the heart of Frederiksted is noisier and a little grittier than being in a resort, but we loved being able to walk to so much of what we wanted to do. We hope the efforts to clean up and revitalize the historic area will continue but at the same time we hope it stays as much a secret as it is now.John2015-03-08T00:00:00Z

We loved staying at Cheryl's wonderful villa. Cheryl and all the staff at the complex made us feel very welcome upon arrival and the villa was clean and exactly what we expected from the listing description. The pool was fantastic and we made good use of other amenities too, such as the free snorkel gear. The onsite restaurant was really good and very convenient. The location of the villa couldn't have been better, for access to the ferry to St John and beautiful beaches on St Thomas, although we would recommend a renting a car to make the most of your stay. Thank you Cheryl for a fabulous vacation in paradise!!!Laura2015-12-30T00:00:00Z
Thank you Cheryl!!! We had a wonderful time at Cheryl's Vila! The property was exactly like the pictures and was very comfortable, clean, and convenient. We felt very welcome there, and we loved the little bottle of Cruzan and the Coco Cola waiting for us with our welcome letter. The property is perfectly located near great beaches and Redhook (which is where the ferry to St John is located). We would recommed this proprety to anyone looking to have a great time in the Virgin Islands.Dusty2016-07-09T00:00:00Z
Cheryl's condo is fantastic! She was responsive, accommodating, & provided a personal touch (thanks for the rum!). Away from the crowds, easy access to the safari taxi system (public transportation) & close to the Red Hook ferry for trips to nearby islands, a short walk to gorgeous Sapphire Beach, a fantastic restaurant on site, and best of all, your own private pool! It's a little slice of paradise. The grounds were well kept, the staff was friendly & helpful, and the condo was very clean. Our absolute favorite things were the pool & the outdoor-like shower! We loved it here & will definitely be making a repeat trip! Thanks Cheryl for making our vacation memorable & unique.Andreas2011-12-23T00:00:00Z
WOW!! We had the best time here, and will forever hold this part of paradise in our hearts. A perfect place, for a perfect honeymoon. We live in Paris, France and really wanted to escape to somewhere magical surrounded by beautiful colors and lots of nature. Cheryl's place has everything you need and more. Well equipped kitchen, comfy bed, loved the plants in the shower and the BBQ. Having our own pool was wonderful. Only a short walk to beaches (great ones that are not overcrowded), it is well situated yet very private. It is even better than the photos. Charming and colorful, where you can relax and leave your worries behind. Don't forget to go to happy hour at the open air bar (Cheers Mate). Tina will take good care of you. Thank you Cheryl for all your helpful tips and advice, our honeymoon would have not been the same without it. We will definitely be coming back, many times.Rhiannon2014-02-24T00:00:00Z
Love, love, love! Perfect condo for a vacation with the boyfriend. All the logistics went super smoothly and Cheryl was incredibly responsive. The place was clean and as pictured. The private pool was a fun amenity to have and Sapphire Beach is a 5 min (if that) walk away. The condo had soft coolers, chairs, plastic cups - pretty much anything you need for a day on the beach. It made our stay relaxing and easy. Location is great - we rented a car, but you could walk into Red Hook (although there aren't really sidewalks on most of the roads).Rebecca2016-03-29T00:00:00Z
Outstanding! Everything was just as pictured. This is a great location very close to the best beaches, Redhook, and ferries. Cheryl was a wonderful, thoughtful, and very communicative host. She did everything she could to make our stay in her little slice of paradise perfect. We hope to return someday!Zoe2017-01-14T00:00:00Z
Cheryl was super sweet to suggest great spots for us to visit. The listing is def as described. Love spending time at private pool and the outdoor/indoor bathroom. The spot is located 5 mins drive from the Redhook and ferry terminal to St.john, and 6 mins walk to the beach. We both enjoy our stay at the villa. and will def come back to visit.Chenta2016-05-17T00:00:00Z
We had a wonderful time in St. Thomas and Cheryl's unit at Pavilions and Pools was a delightful place to stay. The unit is exactly as represented in the airbnb ad. We struggled with the decision to stay at a Hotel where there was no beach view, in a destination as lovely as St. Thomas, but that worked out fine for my husband and me on this trip. We loved the privacy of our unit and that provided a quiet sanctuary for our very busy days on the Islands. The private pool really sealed the deal. Sapphire Beach and Lindquist Beach are within walking distance of the complex. We spent a lot of our beach time at Sapphire Beach because we had friends staying there, and the snorkeling was easy and awesome for newbies. We also went to Megan's Bay and enjoyed most of a day to ourselves on that side of the Island. We rented a car right away and that gave us the flexibility we like to do what we want, when we want. We drove over 200 miles during the week between investigating St. Thomas and St. John - so much to see and enjoy. We went to different restaurants and shopped around Red Hook, enjoyed Carnival, ate at Iggie's at Bolongo Bay - it was a great vacation. We took the car ferry to St. John two days and snorkeled at Trunk Bay, Coral Bay and Maho Bay. We drove from one side of the island all the way around and back over the top. We ate at Skinny Legs and Shipwreck and would definitely go back to either restaurant. Our trip was fun. There was plenty to do and we would love to return to this part of the Caribbean.Anne2012-04-29T00:00:00Z

My husband & I took a small getaway to St. Thomas. We made a good choice in staying @ Shirley's place!! Her place is beautiful & has an awesome view of the island from her balcony. We will definitely book with her again on our next trip!Elga2016-12-06T00:00:00Z
Stunning place to live , not walkable to other places , but it is easy to get a cab from there , the view from the balcony is breathtakingMomo2017-03-01T00:00:00Z
We had a short but wonderful stay! Both Shirley and her husband were very friendly and especially kind to us! Their place is gorgeous, with the most amazing views! We could just sat there, in their big terrace, and admire St Thomas all day long! Their house is in a quiet area and they keep it super clean. I wish we could have stayed a little longer, even their dog Jojo is very friendly! Thank you again for those rides, you didn't have to help us that much and we really appreciate your kindness.Sonia 2017-01-09T00:00:00Z
We loved staying with Shirley and her family. Incredibly beautiful home with gorgeous views. I don't think you could a better place to stay in the Virgin Islands.Rick & Trena2017-03-20T00:00:00Z
This is an incredible place with an amazing view,room is big and comfortable,host is always available to help with anything,definitely a great place to stayRodrigo Alex2016-12-23T00:00:00Z
I booked for a friend, but she said Shirley was a wonderful hostess and the views were fantastic. Great value!Leah2017-02-18T00:00:00Z
If you are looking for a clean room, comfortable bed, AC and amazing views of the bay, you need to stay at Shirley's. You can't beat the location of this place; it is near the airport and provides stunning views on a large shore-facing balcony. You have full use of a large, gorgeous kitchen and living space. The host provides all basic amenities such as shampoo, shower gel and conditioner. You can even purchase snacks and beverages. Shirley offers free breakfast including wrapped pastries, oatmeal, hot chocolate, coffee & tea. Overall an excellent place. Great price and you really can't beat the views!Tatyana2017-03-29T00:00:00Z
Shirley was wonderful host and provided a very clean and comfortable room with an amazing view of downtown St. Thomas, just a short taxi ride away if you want to go exploring. Perfect for our overnight stay before flying back to the states. Highly recommended!Rachel2016-12-01T00:00:00Z

Jimmy was an amazing host who made us feel right at home! He gave us lots of suggestions on places to see in St. Thomas and St. John. It was a great deal to stay at Jimmy's place since we were minutes away from Red Hook and Food Center. Make sure you get to here first before you start exploring St. Thomas. Jimmy has been on the island for a long time and he will make sure you enjoy your trip. Thank you Jimmy your hospitality. I hope to see you again soon!Micah2017-01-03T00:00:00Z
We had the best time staying at Jimmy's! He was such a great host and so helpful. He has lived on the island for years, so he was a great person to let us know about the best beaches, restaurants, and neighboring islands. Definitely visit St. John and Jost van Dyke for a day.. the house is conveniently located near Red Hook, so catching a ferry is easy. There are so many great restaurants in Red Hook.. we never had a bad meal! Our favorites were Island Pub for pizza, Tap & Still for great beers and good burgers, XO for a nice meal, and Fishtails for cocktails and Sushi. We met Jimmy at XO for drinks one night which was so fun. Taxis run by pretty frequently, and the house is on the safari bus line but renting a car is recommended because there is no safe way to walk to beaches or to Red Hook. You can get around without one, but a rental would have made catching early ferries much easier and you would probably wind up saving more because taxis are pretty expensive. Jimmy was kind enough to offer to give us a ride if we had any trouble. We had no trouble checking in, but we reached out to Regina beforehand to let her know when we would be arriving which made check-in smooth. All in all, a great trip and highly recommended. We can't wait to come back!John2016-02-12T00:00:00Z
Staying with Jimmy was a complete delight: Jimmy has been on the island for over 5 decades, and has the warm, relaxed, witty character that comes from that. His knowledge of the area, the history, the tips and tricks for getting around, etc. are perfect for someone wanting an authentic island experience. The apartment was clean and quiet, right on a lagoon and overlooking some of the catamarans docked there. It sits just off the main road, so it's not ideal for walking to town---but you can easily get the local $1 safari taxi and hop on/hop off where you need, or get a regular taxi to jet down to Red Hook or a beach when you want.Chelsea2016-07-08T00:00:00Z
The Waterfront Fisherman's Paradise is the best deal in St. Thomas! The host, Jimmy, was very kind and helpful. The room was clean, bug-free, and ready for us when we arrived. Jimmy provided us with an air mattress for our 3rd guest. The air conditioner worked well and the house felt safe and quiet. Jimmy lives upstairs and was around in case we needed help with anything. The garden was beautiful :) The house is located right on the Safari bus line which you can take to town for $2. Something to be aware of: the Safaris only travel in one direction near the house (until you get to the big K-Mart) and they stop running at about 7pm. The beaches are STUNNING and all close by. Jimmy even gave us a ride to Linquist beach, the most beautiful beach in St. Thomas. Thank you Jimmy for a wonderful visit and for helping us have an amazing vacation in the Virgin Islands (:Sabine2016-04-06T00:00:00Z
We had an amazing experience staying at Jimmy's apartment! The place is the perfect size for two, is quiet and well kept, and very comfortable. Jimmy was a great host and even took us on a tour to see the beautiful sights. He was always available to ask questions and gave information on the best local spots and how to get to and from places. His recommendations made the experience even more memorable. We loved the apartment and area and would definitely stay here again! St. Thomas is beautiful and there is a lot to do. We highly recommend Water Island/Honeymoon beach for free Monday night movies hosted by Heidi's Honeymoon Grill! If you need a car, Bowsky auto is highly recommended. We couldn't have asked for a better place or better hosts than Jimmy and Regina. Thank you!Cassie2016-01-08T00:00:00Z
From the very beginning Regina was extremely helpful. Answered all my questions and made sure I knew exactly how to get there. The studio is just as described. It is a little older but the owner is continuing to update the property. It is extremely clean and and everything you need is provided. I would definitely recommend this studio.Melanie2015-01-04T00:00:00Z
Traveling alone to the Islands, I must say that I could not have had a better start that staying at the Marlin Room. Jimmy, the owner, is probably the nicest and most kind person I have ever met. He made me feel extremely welcome, gave me rides to the beach or to Red Hook on several occasions, even showed me the Island on one day, and always had suggestions on what to do at the island. Also, it is just fascinating how engaged he is in the community. The studio was just perfect- very clean and it has all necessities, even beach towels! The outside of the property is just beautiful as well! I loved the fact that I was able to brew coffee in the morning and enjoy it in the yard looking at the palmtrees. A big plus is that the studio is at the dollar bus route, which saves a lot of money and is just awesome to get around the island :) I would recommend anyone to stay at the Marlin Room!Nadine2015-07-13T00:00:00Z
Highly recommend staying here. Jimmy is an incredible host, and will tell you the best places to visit while you are there. His employee Wilbert and dog Lilly made us feel right at home. Everything was exactly as advertised, clean and comfortable. Go there and see for yourself!Pierre2017-03-27T00:00:00Z

|Is using jcr:path in a query a performance bottleneck?
|Fri, 23 Jan 2009 16:59:30 GMT
Hi all, I've included some background below but my question is..... "is using jcr:path in a query to be avoided due to performance"? We have some Jackrabbit repositories which have grown to include circa 200,000 nodes of a acme:Story. The nodes have been structured in a deep hierarchy to comply with Jackrabbit best practises in terms of max nodes per folder. As an example of our JCR structure /library/ news/ entertainment/ sport/ tennis/ 2009/ 01/ Football/ .. When accessing the repository we're typically using queries which are a) using path as a restriction clause and b) ordering by a date field. e.g. get the latest sport items. SELECT * FROM acme:Story WHERE jcr:path LIKE '/library/sport/%' ORDER BY acme:createdDate DESC As the number of stories has increased we're seeing more and more incidents of queries exceeding 2 secs. Furthermore we've seen lucene start to use more and more heap space executing these queries. Based on http://www.nabble.com/Explanation-and-solutions-of-some-Jackrabbit-queries-r egarding-performance-td15028655.html I understand that the above query would be much faster if we added a tag/category type property to the object e.g. acme:category = "Sport" so that the query could be SELECT * FROM acme:Story WHERE acme:category LIKE 'Sport' ORDER BY acme:createdDate DESC Is that a fair assessment? All comments appreciated. Regards, Shaun

James Bond's Aston Martin Vanquish is pursued over the ice by Zao's Jaguar XKR in "Die Another Day."
The Aston Martin DBS from Quantum of Solace
For James Bond's 50th screen anniversary, Beaulieu's year long show "Bond in Motion" rounds up 50 of the most iconic vehicles seen in the films, including cars, boats, planes, motorbikes — and even a cello case
Next year marks the 50th anniversary of "Dr. No," the first Bond movie in 1962, and to commemorate the milestone 50 of the most famous vehicles from the Bond films will be on display at the National Motor Museum at Beaulieu.
The exhibition, titled "Bond in Motion," will open on January 18 and give fans the opportunity to see many of the cars, boats, motorbikes, sleds and jets of seven James Bonds. In case you've forgotten, they are Sean Connery, George Lazenby, Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton, Pierce Brosnan and Daniel Craig.
Taking pride of place will be Bond's most famous car, the 1964 Aston Martin DB5 that Sean Connery drove in "Goldfinger" and "Thunderball." It will be joined by the 1937 Phantom lll Rolls-Royce from "Goldfinger," the Lotus Esprit S1 that famously turned into a submarine in "The Spy Who Loved Me," the Aston Martin DBS from "Quantum of Solace," the Jaguar XKR that went ice-dancing in "Die Another Day" and the BMW 750iL that Pierce Brosnan "drove" with his mobile phone in "Tomorrow Never Dies."
Joining the cars will be various other vehicles from the Bond franchise, such as the Bede Acrostar jet featured in "Octopussy," the paraglider/snowmobile hybrid Parahawk from "The World is Not Enough" and original Cello Case Ski that Timothy Dalton used in "The Living Daylights."
Bond in Motion will run from January 18, 2012, to December, and further vehicles will be disclosed as the date gets closer. The official website of The National Motor Museum is www.beaulieu.co.uk, where you can keep up with developments.

How do I allow for T-Shirt orders that are different sizes?Asked by briankleppe on May 05, 2014 at 05:44 PM
I would like my customers to be abe to select a specifc t-shirt size for multiple shirts. Right now you can pick a t-shirt size and quantity, which works if you are getting 2 of more of the same size shirts. I am looking to accomodated the customer who wishes to purchase one small shirt and 3 medium (as an example).
Thank you for your assistance.
I think a better idea would be to do something like this http://form.jotform.us/form/41247461459155 or you could reverse it the other way around and have the Product be the color instead. Just one thought on a way that you could do it.

Site Map - Search By City
Find Your City on the List Below, Then Follow The Links
We're you're online information source for sex with escorts in Mexico. Search for independent scorts, escort services and agencies, brothels (in Spanish, a brothel is called a "casa de citas"), strip clubs, massage parlors, swingers and swing clubs in your favorite city. Our most popular cities are Mexico City and the DF, Tijuana, Cancun and Playa del Carmen, Cabo, Guadalajara, Monterrey, Manzanillo, Mazatlan, Colima and Aguascalientes. Many of the larger cities have multiple escort pages, but we only list the first one here. Usually, the English speaking scorts are listed first (if there are any), but you're greatest adventures will probably be with "Spanish only" hookers.
After the city pages, we list our other useful pages; , abbreviations and frequently asked questions. Making phone calls in Mexico can be confusing, so we have a phone page to help you contact our escorts. We even have a vocabulary page, to help you contact the girls directly. On this page, we list common phrases in English - Spanish, and spell out the Spanish words phonetically. If that all seems too complicated and you just want us to find you a girl, email us at firstname.lastname@example.com. Be sure to tell us what city you're in, and give us a few daylight hours to work everything out. It's not that we don't love getting phone calls from drunk, horny guys at 3AM who tell us to send a girl right over. We just need a few hours notice to have you make the deposit, (the service costs $800 pesos)select the girls you want from the list we send you, and then call the girls. Then, they need to shower, get dressed, grab a taxi and head out to where you are. Getting a gorgeous prostitute to your hotel isn't like ordering a pizza. It cannot be done in 30 minutes.

Okay, so here is my honest opinion. From what I saw on your other pictures and what I'm seeing here. I don't think you really are ugly, you just haven't arranged yourself properly. I say this with the most kindness but you have a lot of arranging to do.
1. Wax the stache.
2. Go get your eyebrows done.
3. Get some good products for your hair and find a style that suits you.
4. Get some better clothes. Fashionable ones. You can start simple, get a button up oxford; chambray might be nice, flats (ballet shoes) and khaki Capri. It's a start. (thrift shop might not be the best place)
5. Contacts might suit you or a more stylish pair of glasses.
6. Get a good bra.
7. The gym beckons. I take that back it's screeching for you. Get your stomach toned. Also try to do exercises that focus on posture. Your back is going to be a mess later in life if you continue the way you are.
8. I personally think chicks with the 'natural look' are hotter. That's just me though, so foundation and just a bit of mascara.
I'm not gay by the way, just have to know these things. I want a daughter so I have to know how to put ladies together too. I know my wife is gonna hit the jackpot to have me buying her shit. Haha.74|30|0

Do you want me to be legitimately honest here? I'm going to be legitimately honest here.
1. Do something different with your hair, maybe get it colored. Add some vibrancy and bounce and life to it.
2. Try wearing a tiny bit of make up? Just mascara, maybe? Accentuate your eyes and make them look bright and lively.
3. Proper fitting clothes will do you wonders. Figure out what body type you have and look up suggestions for how to dress it.63|30|0
That was very nice, and not brutal, thanks.
It's unnecessary to be brutal, it's totally possible to give criticism without being a prick. You're welcome.
I also forgot to mention maybe going into a salon (or beauty school if you can't afford a salon, because they have teachers who monitor what they do so they won't allow them to royally fuck your face up, and are half the price a salon is) and getting your eyebrows shaped.
