The property was conveniently located and comfortable. It had everything we needed for a great stay on the island. We really appreciated the beach chairs, beach towels, and cooler for day trips. I would stay here again.

We enjoyed our stay at Blue Marlin. You always had to be cognizant of the steps inside the property, particularly when getting up at night. Dealings with the host were always straightforward. We would definitely rent again, but most likely the upstairs property which we took a look at while we were there.

Quirky place up on a hill. "Easy Walk to beach" not all that easy. Clean, pretty well equipped and is close to town. Jackie, the property manager, was superfantastic in communicating, meeting us at the dock and checking us in.

Great overall experience. We liked everything about our stay. Unit was inviting, clean, comfortable, and quiet. Michele was attentive and made us feel like we had a friend we could turn to on the island. Terrace was nice for relaxing outdoors. Location was a close walk to town yet more peaceful.

Jackie and Michelle were great communicaters. I was emailed all kinds of ideas such as jeep rentals, restaurants, shops and anything else you need for vacation. It was a great location with an easy walk into town and a not-so-easy walk back due to the hill. It is a very quiet area. The only sound is the occasional car or truck riding by. We loved the fact that they provided chairs,cooler and beach towels.

Walkable, Relaxing, and Close to Everything!

We spent 10 incredible days at this rental and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The location is ideal—just a short walk to Cruz Bay, where we enjoyed great restaurants, shops, and easy access to water activities like snorkeling and boat tours. The property was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything we needed for a relaxing stay. The hosts were responsive and helpful with local tips. Highly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy the best of St. John without needing a car every day!

Perfect place for two in St. John!

My daughter and I enjoyed a fantastic stay at Blue Marlin. So cozy, so comfortable. Amazingly clean, ideal set up for being able to make some meals there, but a very short walk to Cruz Bay for access to dining, bars, taxis to the beaches. It had everything you could ask for in order to have a private space to relax. Jackie was so helpful and made it easy to book, easy to get there and even though we really didn't need much while we were there, we knew we could reach out at any time and she would help. I couldn't recommend the Blue Marlin more!
