Stunning Views with Considerations
My stay at Karen's property in St. Thomas offered a mix of breathtaking island views and notable challenges that future guests should consider. First, the positives: the views from the property are truly spectacular, capturing a panoramic vista that is hard to top. Karen is also a very responsive host, quick to answer any queries and assist where she can. However, there are some important drawbacks to note. Access to the property is via a steep, narrow road that is in poor condition. An all-wheel-drive vehicle is a necessity, not a luxury here, so be prepared for a tricky drive. Another significant issue was the lack of air conditioning in the bedrooms. The fans provided did little to alleviate the heat, making for uncomfortable, often interrupted sleep due to the warmth. If you are sensitive to heat, especially at night, this is a critical point to consider. Additionally, we encountered a problem with the kitchen door leading to the outside; it was defective and difficult to secure. The presence of mosquitoes was also noteworthy, especially when trying to enjoy the beautiful views from the terrace; they were almost enough to ruin the experience. While the stunning views and responsive hosting are definite pluses, the challenges we faced could impact the overall comfort of your stay. This is a wonderful spot if you’re prepared for a bit of adventure and don’t mind the heat, but those looking for a more serene island retreat might find these issues significant.

Hopefully the First of Many Trips
Stayed for five nights, and my boyfriend and I cannot say enough about how wonderful our experience was. Karen kept in contact leading up to our arrival to make sure that we had the means and support for an easy entry. Along the way, she was quick to reach out for check-ins and assistance with the property. It was our first time to the island, so the only issue of inexperience was driving layout and steep roads. We quickly acclimated (largely in thanks to Karen's provided geolocation of the residence), and relished in the private, gorgeous location of the secluded home. While we flicked on the very efficient A/C unit on our initial footsteps into the property, we just as soon turned it off to enjoy the French doors that opened up to the sprawling balcony. Both doors also had retractable awnings that made the outdoor area accessible and comfortable for every hour of the day. Even better, both French doors had pop-out screens! Nice bed, lovely bathrooms, full entertainment by way of cable/DVD player/WIFI, in-unit washer/dryer AND an outfitted kitchen - which felt thoughtfully built into the space. All in all, this property has set an impossibly high bar for my travel stays down the line. So happy with my time, and have to extend so many thank you's to Karen (and Joma!) for providing the best of the best. I suggest that if you are reading this far, you go ahead and book now!

Great Stay!!
2024 is the fifth year I have rented this house. It’s great for four people. The view is amazing. The location between Charlotte Amalie and Red Hook works well for me. I like that it has two bathrooms. The drive up the hill can be challenging but is well worth it. I’m going back next year.

The property is high on a hill with a beautiful view of the sunset and cruise ships passing by. You need a car, and it is worth the drive to stay here. Karen is a wonderful and attentive host.

Beautiful views, lovely property
This was the second time that we've stayed here, we love it. The views over the Caribbean towards St Croix, Vieques, and Puerto Rico are great, Karen's home is clean and very comfortable. Some reviewers have noted that you need a car, and that the property is not right on the beach (obviously!). It's true that it's not walkable, but the views and privacy made it worth it and the beaches are a short drive away. Both Karen and her property manager, Joma, are responsive and helpful. We can't wait to go back!

A month in St. Thomas
If you are looking to walk to the beach, this property isn't for you. For anything else, it's great. The house sits well up a hill, so the views are spectacular. Watch the sunsets and the cruise ships come and go. It's about a 10 minute drive into town and 20-30 minutes gets you anywhere on the island. We had a couple problems, but quick responses from Karen and property manager, Joma, made them small problems. Would definitely recommend this property.

Beautiful view, lovely home
The property was exactly as pictured, with a wonderful deck where we enjoyed watching the sunset every evening. There's a fully equipped kitchen, the bedrooms/bathrooms are arranged so that there's privacy if two couples are traveling together (although my husband and I were on our own!). The gate at the driveway made it feel very secure, although I don't think I would have been concerned if there wasn't a gate--this feels like a safe and also not touristy area. Thanks to Joma Mahoney for being so kind in guiding us to the house and setting us up with a new grill!

The Hideaway
The property is nestled on a hill and is peaceful and very relaxing. The AC was an issue but we were rarely at home so only ran it to cool off the house for an hour or so upon our return. Screen were missing from bedroom doors to balcony, but overall an excellent stay. Would definitely book again. Very convenient to town and venues on the island. Awesome response time from manager and owner.

Nice property. On the mountains. If you're not from the island taxis are best be aware the the scamming drivers there are some great ones at the airport. Never use SINCLAIR or his car rental.

Great Place to Stay
This is a really, really lovely place to stay. We came to St. Thomas to visit my son who lives on the island. When he came for dinner, he remarked how he thought I did a great job picking the spot. Amazing view of the harbor from the balcony, which was one of the only dealbreakers when I was looking - there had to be an awesome balcony. The ocean breeze and the ceiling fans kept things very pleasant, even when it got hot in the afternoons. I wish I had read one of the previous reviews more carefully, because driving on the left on these roads is interesting, and I wish I had used the taxis more than I did. I have Sprint and I had a hard time getting a signal, but the wifi kept that from being an issue. ATT seems to be fine here. Karen (owner) and Joma (property manager) were both very responsive, pleasant, and accommodating. Next time I come down, I hope to stay here again. I will just make better use of the taxis.

Beautiful Getaway!
This home on Saint Thomas is truly beautiful and has an amazing view of the Caribbean. I highly recommend it for a getaway. The electronics are exceptional: Dish TV, Bluetooth stereo and Wi-Fi. The only difficulty is trying to find it. It’s toward the top of Hawk Hill Road off of Frenchmans Bay Road. Hussein the cab driver knows where it is and is excellent 340-474–5656.

Nice view on island
Jomah met us at airport when we arrived. He took us to the house and told us keys/gate etc etc. very helpful. The house does not have an ac but the ceiling fans work just fine. We actually would get cold at times. The house is fully furnished just as listed. I was able to cook breakfast and my husband did make some chicken on the grill. The house has a wonderful view. It was nice to get up each morning and see the ocen from the balcony. Only issue we would have to say was the pressure of water coming out for shower. Which isnt a big issue. Im sure it has to do with water issue on the island. We loved the house and if we ever go back we would stay here again.

Secluded Location With Expansive views of the Sea
We spent 9 great days at this Hawk Hill 2-bedroom 2-bathroom rental house. Located high in the hills with expansive views of the sea and transiting cruise ships, based on the size, amenities and price of this rental home, we could not have picked a better place or location on the island. Each spacious bedroom has its own bathroom. There is air conditioning in the main living space, the kitchen, living room and dining room, and ceiling fans in the bedrooms. Cool ocean breezes kept use of air conditioning to a minimal. The home is nicely furnished and was equipped with all the household essentials you’ll need, including a well maintained gas barbecue grill and patio furniture on the large ocean-facing deck. The home is private and somewhat secluded, with neighboring homes just close enough but not too close. The home is relatively close to almost everything you’ll need, grocery stores, general shopping and souvenir vendors, restaurants, entertainment and night life. Beaches aren’t very far too; Morning Star and Limetree beaches are just down the hill, and Coki Beach, Magens Bay and Linquist beaches just a few minutes more away. Negatives: Roads leading to the home may be challenging for some drivers; narrow and winding, steep at points with a few very sharp turns, smooth and then rocky in some areas. Good news; after a couples of days the drive gets easier. Overall, we enjoyed our stay the home.
