  Thank you so much for a pleasant stay (my teenage daughter, her best friend, and I). We rented both units, and had more than enough room and amenities. You made us feel very welcome, even before we arrived. You were prompt in answering my questions and concerns, so when we came, we were ready to hit the ground, running (and swimming, snorkeling, sightseeing, etc.). The story of how your place came to be, and your support for our military personnel is inspiring, and I thank you for that. The girls adored Gigi, and vice versa. She was full of love, the whole time we were there, and added to our enjoyment. On behalf of the three of us, thank you so much for a memorable stay! Looking forward to our next visit, hopefully very soon, and seeing God's wonderful creation above and below sea level at St. John.

  I spent a wonderful week at Lee Morris's Sugar Bird Dreams from 1/22-1/29/13. The studio was absolutely perfect, clean, comfortable, safe, just as advertised. There is a beautiful view overlooking the town of Cruz Bay and over towards St. Thomas. Reaching Lee's home is very easy from town (less than 5 minute drive), no switchbacks and the home is gated as well. More than this, Lee is a genuine, lovely hostess with a heart of gold. She invited me out one night and then another night we had wine and pizza in her home with lovely friends as she played her piano and sang for us. Lee's little rescue dog Gigi was delightful, she would come visit everyday. Being home just a week, I miss the island of St. John and it's wonderful people. Please don't think twice about renting either Sugar Bird Nest or Dreams or both, you will not be disappointed, Lee's hospitality is unmatched. I hope to return soon :)

  Sugar Bird Nest is a wonderful place & Lee is a terrific host. Everything we could think of was available including beach chairs & coolers. The apartment is lovely and fully equipped. The view is amazing. Perfect for a small family, close to everything including 2 grocery stores and the car ferry docks. We will be back!

  From the minute I arrived at Sugar Bird Nest you made me feel so at home. If you are looking for a quiet, surreal place to be then this is the place. I told Lee more than once that she should just rent me her apartment on a permanent basis and I would move right in. I enjoyed Gigi coming down every morning to see if I was up and loved the fact that she liked to cuddle on the couch with me until I was ready to get up. It was so much fun on the last night we were there when we sat on your patio with Livy & Patty and had our "girl time". And your hot tub....OH MY.....I tried out all the seats.....just so I could say I sat where Kenny Chesney was.....since it used to be his hot tub! (hehe). Lee, I cannot wait to come back to visit you again but until then please know that you are in this Indiana girls thoughts and I Love You!! Thank you for a very memorable stay at your Sugar Bird Nest.

  We had such a great time staying at Sugar Bird Nest over the 4th of July holiday! Lee took such good care of us and we had everything we needed for a fabulous family vacation. It was fun to wake up each day and give the sugar birds their morning sugar. I never saw so many birds race over to get their sugar fix! The large apt. patio has a partial view of the ocean but we were welcomed upstairs to enjoy her panoramic full view of St. Thomas and Cruz Bay! We loved to grill on the patio or call Ronnie's Pizza for delivery. The gated entry is a nice feature to have too and sitting in the hot tub was great after a long day of snorkeling. Plus Lee is a fabulous piano player and singer so we were totally entertained while watching the beautiful sunset. Lee also has the cutest little dog named Gigi and our boys loved playing with her. You can't beat the view and the price and so close to Starfish Market, restaurants and shopping. I highly recommend Sugar Bird Nest but secretly don't want you to know about this hidden gem on the top of the hill so it won't get booked up the week I want to return!! Oh well, I'll have to take my chances . . . The Gardner Family

Most people are so AMAZED at the fantastic view - 180 degrees - islands, islands, islands all around in the beautiful, shimmering blue sea, along with all kinds of boats going in and out, over and across, up and down!

  The apartment was great. Nice and clean. The owner is friendly and was very helpful with our questions. I will definitely recommend this property to my friends and relatives. We hiked and kayaked, snorkeled and swam. What wonderful beaches and clear warm water. We really enjoyed our evenings watching the sunset and listening to Lee play her grand piano. We even sang together once or twice. Really a great place to stay. Up on the hill with gentle breezes and a great view.

  High atop a hill near Cruz Bay sits Sugar Bird Nest. Complete with a well stocked kitchen, clean airy living spaces, a laundry, a fantastic sprawling porch with lovely views and best of all Lee, long time resident of St. John and a wonderful resource for St. John dining recommendations, activities, general island information and so much more. A five minute Jeep ride up hill and away from Cruz Bay, and safely tucked behind an electronic gate, we felt like we were in out own world surrounded by lush greenery and brilliantly colored bougainvillea. The jacuzzi was a welcomed amenity after a long day of hiking, snorkeling and swimming. Very entertaining was the musical talent revue night at Sun Dog Cafe and the day cruise to Virgin Gorda with Cruz Bay Watersports was a blast. Another highlight from our trip was the day sail with Capt. Bob. We smiled for 8 straight days! We will already planning our next vacation at Sugar Bird Nest!! Thank you for everything Lee.
