This was one of our favorite trips which we have ever gone on! The view from this place was breath taking! Every day it was so special to wake up and be treated with the views over the bay! The area upstairs was perfect for playing games with friends, cooking food, and relaxing. The pool was nice to be able to chill and take in the views as well. Our room was great with everything for a perfect island vacation.We will definitely be back!!

My wife and Ioved Sea Cottage. It has a beautiful view of Coral Bay and beyond, in an incredibly peaceful jungle setting. The hosts are wonderful and extremely responsive. Like most places on St John, having a 4wd vehicle is a "must." We would 100% stay at Sea Cottage again and would recommend it to any couple looking for a place to stay on St John.

Great spot up on the mountain up and out of the hustle and bustle of all the tourist traps. Great views up in the cool mountain air and only 5-10 minutes to the various National park beaches. Elvis has the place beautifully landscaped and even brought by some fruit from the property. Wouldn’t change a thing and hope to come back. Book it, you won’t regret it. I would bring coffee with me as it can’t be found in any store on the island for less than $21/ bag. Starfish market in Cruz bay has the best selection of steak for the grill, midway market is the cleanest market and has a great selection of produce and a full service gas station.

This is a lovely home with a fabulous view of Coral Bay. It is fully equipped so you can easily cook, do laundry, and go to the beach. A perfect setting for two couples or a family of four. There is a grocery store at the foot of the hill and 4 restaurants within easy walking distance. Also at the foot of the hill is a place to rent snorkel equipment. One recommendation: rent a proper Jeep or Suzuki with high clearance. The approach to the house is very difficult in a regular car or hatch-back Jeep.

When my husband and I were looking for a relatively last-minute getaway, we felt so fortunate to have found Papaya Moon. It was a truly beautiful, quiet and complete package with luscious gardens and stunning views. The owners, Ron and Sue, were attentive and helpful for these first-time St John visitors. The unit had no AC, but the fans, trade winds and open windows with screens made it very comfortable. There were beach towels and a great beach bag waiting on is to use for the week. While we didn’t use the pool, we enjoyed the hot tub a few evenings and it was so nice to have access to both steps from the unit. Our only issues we had were some tiny sugar ants that kept coming in (an issue that happens all the time at the beach) and the proximity of the property to the main Cruz Bay area. If you are interested in dinner and/or drinks in the downtown in the evening, the drive back to the property is dark, curvy and a little nerve racking. We ended up arranging taxis two nights so we didn’t have to drive, and that was expensive, but worth it to us. However, if you want a peaceful retreat, and don’t have a desire to go to Cruz Bay much with excellent proximity to the beautiful north shore beaches, this is your place! We loved our stay and would love to come back.

Wonderful house, location, views.
