Our own private lomo (included in the rate) met us at St Thomas airport and took us to Red Hook where we took the ferry to St John. There Albion met us, took us on a quick tour of the island, stopped at Starfish Market to pick up staples, and then on to Bluebitch Villa. "Bluebitch" is impeccably clean, spacious and has everything you'll need for a relaxing and enjoyable vacation.  A fully equipped kitchen (even a bbq), wonderful views, and a private beach that became our go-to place for a morning cup of coffee, afternoon swim or great place to read a book and watch the sun set.  We wanted to experience the culture and special spots of St. John and the information and suggestions provided were very helpful and gave us lots of ideas for our adventures around the island.   Thank you for helping create some amazing memories and a refreshing week in St. John Albion and Ann were gracious and welcoming and they made us feel like family. We'll definitely be making this our yearly vacation spot.

Stayed in the villa in June 2023 - total of 5 people all adults. The private charter and concierge…read moreservice are wonderful. The private chef who comes in to cook if you want is well worth it at least for one evening. The view is spectacular and the deck very nice. The Villa for the price and advertisement as five star not at all what it should be! Pool was not clean and took half the week to get it working properly. Linens were not clean nor were the baths and floors and some of the walls had mold and bothered our allergies. It was ok and certainly livable but not at all what a well traveled adult would expect for the price and the only explanation was that it was rented to much to have time to maintain - wow!! St John is a must do - so many nice things to do, the people are just the best, and I feel like there are super places to stay there - going to look into the live-a-boards!

We had a large bedroom, small laundry facility, living room, kitchen, and two balcony's (one overlooking the water). Everything was extremely clean, and I felt very safe during this time - which is hard to find! The staff was extremely accommodating; switched out our cooker bag that was rusted, brought us new beach towels, gave us extra laundry pods, etc. The cherry on top? The location was PERFECT! We were so close to all of the restaurants, bars, and shops... we only used the taxi service to get to the beaches! I will for sure be staying here in the future!!

"Beyond Our Expectations. Wonderful!"…read more What we loved about it: - Basket of fresh fruit, crackers and cheese, chips, wine waiting for us upon arrival (so we didn't have to rush out to get provisions the first evening). There were even packages of coffee in the freezer for the next morning's cup of coffee. So thoughtful! - Beautiful, beautiful grounds - landscaping, pool, patio, bacci court (yes!) - Well designed and decorated interior with dining table on the terrace overlooking Cruz Bay, kitchen open to the living area and wall of glass doors looking out onto the terrace and the bay. - Loved the two master suites - no "fighting" over the nicer bedroom -- with the en suites and open showers. Really appreciated the high-end toiletries, the big towels, and the beach towels. - Great cooking facilities. We cooked breakfast every day and dinner 5 of the 7 days we were there - used the kitchen and the grill on the patio. Ate outside every morning/evening. - Loved the pool, sitting on the terrace, lounging in the sunshine. - Mike (property manager) recommended taking a bottle of wine and some bread and cheese up the trail behind the house to the top of the hill to watch the sunset. We did this several times and each time was a delight. - Located outside Cruz Bay, it was a quick and easy drive to and from the villa. We rented from Conrad rental, which allowed free parking in Cruz Bay at their location (at least they did the week we were there). What we hated about it: - Leaving

Perfect size and depth for families. The villa itself was recently updated so everything is new. The fitness room is a huge bonus. I was able to workout without driving to St John Fitness...saving time and money. Central AC through which helps on the hot days. Outside grilling and lounging areas were great. We were a family of four but there is a 3rd downstairs bedroom for grandparents or a teenager who wants some privacy. We will definitely consider this home again and I highly recommend for families with children.

They pulled out all the stops! The view, as you can see from the pictures was spectacular. When you park, there is an area on the lower level where the first bedroom is, and then the door next to that is the game room. Going up the the stairs to the main entrance you'll find the main part of the house. There are only two bedrooms connected to this part of the home. If you are a person who goes to bed early, or likes to sleep in, you may want to choose another room. The main area does not have a restroom, you have to either go in the outdoor bathroom, or go in your room. Every room is named after one of the beaches. There are a total of 6 rooms. Each room has it's own bathroom and outdoor shower. There are some rooms with indoor showers as well. Only some of the rooms have a television, but I didn't find any reason to watch TV, except when we watched the Lions game and we did that as a group. The play room has a bar area (surprisingly though, no refrigerator, which would be my only recommendation.) There is a shared bathroom in the play room. There is a pool table, Foosball table, and darts. There is a TV with video games. The honeymoon suite is huge with an very big bathroom and both an indoor and outdoor shower. My room was the Francis room. You could get to that floor either by a winding staircase from the pool area (which was quite slippery some evenings) or by entering through the game room. There is a door that divides my room from the hallway entering the game room and one of two washers and dryers. The door was not up though, which did make my room less private. No big deal, except you can be taking a shower, and someone doing laundry is just a few feet away from you. Not a lot to shield you. But hey, the exhibitionist in me didn't care that much. The view while showering is simply stunning. If you are looking for an adventurous vacation destination, check out Island Stones.

We were greeted with a taxi, who whisked us to Red Hook to catch the boat to St John. We were met on St John by a lovely greeter, Denise who gave us keys to a Jeep we reserved. We followed her to Hawksbill villa, a couple of miles from town. Denise explained all features of the magnificent hilltop villa, gave us tourist information, showed us highlights on a map, and made us feel welcome. The return trip was equally expertly arranged. Caribbean Villas is a top notch villa operator and I would not hesitate to book with them on St John again.

Not only did they direct me to the right property but our reservation was the beginning of the Chinese Virus shut down for the Islands.

We finally made our trip the first week of the opening of the USVI in September. The Property, Cinnamon was better than presented on their site. We had a couple of minor issues during the week and the local representatives where more than responsive in addressing our issues.

We were a little unsure of what to expect when we went through McLaughlin for our villa on this past trip. But now cannot say enough great things about them. Great communication prior to the trip, totally professional, well organized paperwork, polite, everything we wanted in a rental broker. There were some minor problems with the villa when we arrived (the hot tub didn't work) and they told us in advance, apologized, and had someone out to fix it the next day. The last few times we went through another broker (Windspree) and whenever there was an issue with a villa (occasionally more serious like no hot water or broken air conditioning) it was like pulling teeth to get someone on the phone...and then getting something fixed just didn't happen without more than a little aggravation and wasted vacation time. McLaughlin was the complete opposite. We will 100% definitely use them again on our next trip to St John.
