Great location

My husband and I enjoyed our stay! Amanda had awesome recommendations and communicated with me quickly when I had a question. The place was nicely decorated and close to the action in Cruz Bay. Plus walking up and down that hill daily really strengthened our legs

Cruz Bay Hideaway

Perfect for a couple. Just far enough outside of downtown Cruz Bay to be quiet and close enough to walk to all the bars and restaurants (it is a steep walk up the hill). Check-in was seamless and we had no problems the entire time we stayed at the studio. Lastly, it was quite clean with no bug or ant issues.

Beautiful property overlooking Cruz Bay

Beautiful studio overlooking Cruz Bay. We absolutely loved sitting on the balcony every morning while having breakfast. Location to restaurants and shops is great but keep in mind the hill the property sits atop of us steep (as the lister clearly mentions)! Worth every bit! Can’t wait to return!

Beautiful views of Cruz Bay!

If you're looking to be right in Cruz Bay this is a great spot. Beautiful views from the balcony and the room was cute. One more thing is on the weekend we were staying, there was VERY loud music playing from town that we could hear through the walls and windows and it kept us from sleeping. Nothing can be done about that, but it's a reality of being so close to the action.

Great choice

Unit was lovely, shared deck was comfortable with great views and felt private. We had everything we needed and communication with host was exceptional. The property is in walking distance to everything, which is always our number one requirement. Beware, it’s not where the map listing shows (next to Banana Deck), but a street and steep hill back (across from Quiet Mon). This was our longest stay on STJ yet (still not long enough) and we were very happy with our choice!

This is not a private balcony as listed in the posting. The shower and bathroom looked like it hadn’t been cleaned. Checkin was pretty easy and the size and communication around everything else was accurate.

Great space, tough climb

We had a lovely stay but were a little taken aback by the steepness of the “hill.” Wish it was more clear that it would be more of a hike to get to the top and not possible to walk up and down with heels. But the views were great and it was a nice sized space. We had some minor issues that were resolved within minutes after contacting Amanda.

Honeymoon

We had an excellent stay at this property! The property is exactly as described-very nice with a beautiful view of Cruz Bay. The area is very walkable-easy access to the local restaurants, shops and ferry. The hill going from the shops/restaurants to the property is quite steep, but this is mentioned in the listing and we actually enjoyed walking up and down it each day. We rented a Jeep as we were there for a week and did a lot of hiking and exploring. We had one small issue with the lock on the sliding glass door-but Amanda was very responsive and immediately came over to assist us. She was very welcoming and kind and also gave us some great recommendations for restaurants and hiking.We loved our visit and our hoping to come back-will definitely plan to stay here again!
