My family of five (2 adults, 3 kids ages 13, 12, 7) just returned from a week stay in this wonderful condo. We feel so lucky to have found this place and we are already talking about a return trip!
The condo was nicely decorated in a beachy theme. The beds and furniture were comfortable. Loved the large balcony with table and chairs and two chaise loungers. The condo was clean and looked exactly as the pictures on VRBO.
The location of the condo was great- on relaxed, quiet Cowpet Bay. The kids loved the large pool that was open until 10 pm daily. The beach was a nice size and pretty; we found other beaches that had more clear water and better snorkeling, but at a higher price tag. There are two restaurants on the property- Caribbean Fish Market (expensive, but delicious, dinner option- make a reservation online) and Sangria's (fun, beachside casual restaurant- delicious food for breakfast, lunch and dinner pizza and friendly staff).
The location is a short taxi ride to the ferry terminal in Red Hook ($5pp each way) and we traveled to St. John three times. Highly recommend doing this- Trunk Bay is the most beautiful beach I have ever seen and we saw many sea turtles while snorkeling at Maho Bay. I recommended picking up sandwiches in the deli at Moe's Grocery Store located across the street from the ferry terminal in Red Hook, makes a great picnic lunch on the beach!
We chose not to rent a car. The taxi fare adds up to about the cost of renting a car for the week, but without the hassle of navigating the tough terrain (especially on St. John). We never had trouble getting a taxi in a timely manner. Another tip if you're not renting a car- we ordered groceries ahead of time to be delivered to the condo before we arrived. It was so nice to arrive with a stocked fridge and beer already cold! The property manager is super helpful in coordinating the grocery delivery and anything else you want to plan during your trip. She responded quickly to all my inquiries before and during our stay. Hope my long review gives you a few traveling tips and the confidence to book this beautiful condo! Happy travels!
