Just returned from a wonderful visit to St Thomas. The apartment, with your own private entrance, is INCREDIBLY CLEAN and new with a spacious modern bathroom, large bedroom (with HUGE closets) and fully equipped kitchen. The owners/hosts were fantastic - very friendly and super helpful. I would recommend this place to anyone who is picky about where they stay. The view is stunningly breathtaking!

Fantastic rental

My husband and I just got home from a fantastic week in Bob and Diane's rental. What a great time. The apartment is clean, private, well maintained and very well equiped with everything you will need. The view is beautiful. The private deck is quiet, nothing around but birds and the view. The use of beach towels, chairs, a cooler and snorket gear is an added plus, saves having to rent these things at the beach. Close drive to beaches, shopping and restaurants. Small rental car is needed. Bob and Diane are excellent hosts, there to answer questions and give directions, recommendations, etc., but never invade your privacy.

Absolutely the Only Place We Will Stay on St. Thomas

My husband and I travel for both work and pleasure quite frequently and have never found a place we enjoy staying as much as this! We have stayed at other vacation rentals in the Virgin Islands off steep narrow roads and where noises from town keep you up all night, but this place is completely different. There is easy access to main roads that you can take quickly and easily to town and the beaches, but in their guest apartment you feel worlds away from everything and the gentle sounds of tree frogs in the rainforest-like landscaping below will lull you to sleep at night if you leave the windows open. We enjoyed several meals on the beautiful deck with a view of Magen's Bay that is easily worth every penny of a million dollars! There aren't enough words for how fun and genuinely hospitable Bob and Diane are. They are the most gracious hosts you will find and this was our second of hopefully many stays with them. The amazing beaches of St. Thomas and St. John are worth the long flight from Southern California, but staying at Million Dollar View makes us feel like St. Thomas is our home away from home.

We had such an incredible time and would recommend it to anybody. Bob and Diane were most gracious and gave all kind of hints on how to stay out of the real "touristy" areas. Highly recommended!

A true million dollar view

From the moment we arrived we only could say "wow".... The apartment was the cleanest and best kept vacation rental we ever had (and I am extremely picky). We found everything we needed: a spacious super clean bathroom, fully equipped kitchen, enough closet space to fit everything, beach equipment, the most beautiful view from our porch and the nicest, most helpful owners who were always there when we needed them with tips and hints and a good conversation. It is a great place for 2 persons, the space is absolutely sufficient and you feel at home immediately. It is a great location and by car you are everywhere on St Thomas within 20-30minutes (you will need a car). We can recommend the Million Dollar View to everyone without any hesitation, and if we come back to the Virgin Islands, we will for sure stay again with Bob and Diane. A real gem! Thank you for everything.

Still Dreaming

My husband and I stayed at Million Dollar View for a few days in February. The apartment was perfect for us. It was clean, cozy and we loved sitting out on the deck. As far as the view - the name says it all. The view of Magen's Bay was amazing and we also loved the beautiful flowers and foliage on the property itself. It was a bonus having use of beach chairs, beach towels and a cooler. Overall, we had a fantastic trip and are already dreaming about when we can go back. I would definitely recommend the apartment to anyone looking to spend a few days on the island and wanting to get a taste of what it would be like to live there.

This property is truly a million dollar view. We stayed here for 9 nights and had the best time. Just got home two days ago and we're already missing it! Bob & Diane were great ... they assisted us with recommendations on things to do, restaurants to go to, ferries to St. John, etc. We loved every minute of our trip, and the house was fabulous. The view was just as gorgeous as the pictures, the apt. was the perfect size for us, and it has all the comforts of home. Beach towels, cooler, snorkel equipment - it was great. I think we'll have to plan a trip back!

This is the perfect hideaway and the hosts couldn't be more wonderful or more accomodating. They truly made us feel at home and everything far exceeded our highest expectations. We spent time at so many beautiful beaches, but making meals in our great little kitchen and enjoying them on the beautiful deck, surrounded by tropical flowers overlooking the best views on the island, was definitely one of the highlights of our trip. We are so thankful we found Bob and Diane and this wonderful guest suite and we hope to return very soon.

Great place, great people

We are very grateful that we had the chance to share Bob and Diane's place in paradise. Great location - not far from premium beaches and a charming historic town. Our Peace Haven, a place we loved to come back after daily excursions. The best kept vacation-rental we ever had. Despite modest floor area we never felt cramped. A nice and tidy accommodation. Good value for money. You need a car. Restricted parking space, so a compact car or lower is recommended. You feel that Diane and Bob love their place. Great wild but tended natural frame: a mixture of lush tropical wilderness and Mediterranean garden, a green oasis on a relatively dry island. Situated in a beautiful hilly area which grants freshness and a good natural ventilation. We didn't miss air conditioning. Eco in the best sense! We appreciated the friendly and helpful neighborhood of Bob and Diane. Felt very save. Nice welcome gesture: tropical flowers and... Cruzan Rum. A real million dollar view! We will come back again and would always recommend the place to our most critical friends.

We stayed with Bob and Diane two summers ago and never got around to writing a review. So, let us say without a doubt their studio is absolutely gorgeous and the view is amazing! From the moment we walked down the stairs and saw the balcony we were pleased, then we opened the studio door and knew that we had made the right choice to stay there. The interior is so clean and bright, the kitchen is well stocked with all pots and pans needed for making meals. Bob and Diane were gracious hosts, helping with everything we needed but otherwise not intrusive. We have since moved to St. Thomas and drive by their house everyday and it always brings a smile to our face. We highly recommend this great rental! Mike and Cheryl
