Island Escape for Two, Class and Comfort

Perfect hideaway for two looking for a home away from home on the beautiful island of St. John.
Just a 5 minute drive to Coral Bay restaurants or 10 minutes to the World Class North Shore Beaches. The Turtle and the Seahorse cottage is a bright and airy studio, easy to find off Centerline Road...plus NO stairs, take just a few steps from your car door to your front door!

Your deck offers a view of the Bordeaux Mountains and stunnning Coral Bay. Full-sized appliances and a clean kitchen stocked with essential utensils make your vacation easy and comfortable. Relax in your king size bed, or chill watching a movie on the Smart TV.
Beach chairs, towels, shade tent and umbrella, noodles, and cooler are available to guests. You do not need to rent a four-wheel drive vehicle to get to our cottage, our roads are paved....for other remote parts of the island it maybe neccessary. You can walk or enjoy a morning jog on the friendly neighborhood roads just outside the cottage.

It would be great if toilet will be cleaned in the middle of the stay when linen are changed. It is not convenient and not customer friendly to turn off A/C each day when you leave the property and turn it on upon return as it is getting too hot in the cottage and it takes too long to cool the place to be comfortable at night.

Perfect for the two of us

We loved our stay here near Coral Bay. The view was incredible and the space was perfect for the two of us. It was the most convenient that the owners provided Beach chairs, towels, a cooler, and floaties for us to use at the beaches each day. The home was clean and we enjoyed using the tv in the evenings after exploring all day. Highly recommend!

The Perfect Place

Alison sent information about the cottage as soon as we booked. It was nice having all the info up front. The cottage is beautiful in decor and the view looking down over Coral Bay is amazing. Alison stopped by shortly after we arrived to make sure we were all set. The cottage seemed to have everything you could possibly need. Especially appreciated the beach chairs and there were a few refreshments in the fridge. Would definitely stay here again.

Hillside bungalow for two

We really enjoyed the Seahorse & Turtle cottage.The interior is adorable and has everything you need for a very comfortable stay. There were generously many condiments, coffee, etc provided upon arrival which was unexpected but great to get started! The outdoor spaces are also lovely with of the mountains on one side and Coral Bay from the other. We loved not having any stairs to navigate with luggage or groceries so that was a plus. Also, having never visited St John before we feel we were very well located to enjoy many of the hiking trails as well as the beautiful North Shore beaches. Location,location,location! Allison and Juan were both delightful and helpful throughout our stay. We would definitely stay here again!!

Perfect Stay!

We had such a great stay! We fell in love with the views! Communication with Allison was fast. The location is perfect, so close to all the spots we wanted to hit - our favorite snorkel spots were Haulover beach (north), Leinster Bay and Salt Pond Bay. Our favorite hike was Rams Head. All these spots were so easy to get to from the cottage!! The cottage was well stocked and it didn't take long at all for the AC to cool the place down! We cooked our all dinners in the kitchen and loved eating out on the deck. Would stay here again.

Amazing Holiday Cottage

Allison was amazing on communication from the time of rental until departure. Cottage is quiet, in a great location for Coral Bay, very very clean and comfortable. The kitchen had everything you could possibly need for cooking and dining in. Bathroom was perfect, even providing some basic toiletries. Everything was as advertised. Chairs, umbrellas, cooler, towels and noodles available for the beach. I have been coming to the islands for about twenty years and would definitely return to this cottage.

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay here! Clean, comfortable, easily accessible and in a great neighborhood. The view from the porch was fantastic. We even got to watch a meteor shower laying out on the porch one evening. Dry functional kitchen that allowed us to easily make breakfast every morning before heading out for the day. We certainly recommend it and will return!

Allison and Juan have a great, quiet place in Coral Bay. Great people, great view, etc etc. my wife and I have been coming to St John for many years. This little spot is perfect for a quiet, small rest in between days spent on the beach forgetting the rest of the world. We will be staying here again. Allison, thank you for your hospitality.
