About this property

Cottage-like West Indie town house. Perfect for two couples or a family!

STOWAWAY is a breezy two story town house; excellent for two couples or a family. It is part of a small, 8 unit group known as VILLAS ON THE UPPER DECK. It is located just above town.

The first floor consists of entry foyer, living, dining, kitchen, laundry, half bath, grill area, and dining deck overlooking the pool with views of St. Croix. The upper floor has two separate bedrooms each with its own bath and deck. One bedroom has an added sleeping loft perfect older kids.

Marcia’s property is comfortable & beautiful, providing everything you need to make your vacation amazing. The ocean view is absolutely breathtaking & we enjoyed every minute there. The pool was also wonderful & we all wanted to stay longer! We hope to return again one day!

This place was amazing. It was great to have coffee in the morning and a glass of wine in the evening. The host was very responsive and answered ALL our questions. Definitely coming back and even got to speak with Marcia’s mom. First class!

Wonderful Winter Escape
Stowaway was a great place to stay on St John. It’s a beautiful hilltop property with spectacular views of Cruz Bay and was the perfect space for two couples. The owner provided a lot of helpful information ahead of our arrival and was very responsive. The unit came stocked with bathroom essentials & beach bags, chairs and towels. It was close to Starfish Market for a few groceries (bring your own bags) and town restaurants (5 min drives). Would definitely stay here again.

Fantastic Nine Nights at Stowaway at Upper Deck Villa's
I have been vacationing in St. John for 35 years; I must have stayed in 15-20 Villas. Stowaway is one of my favorites. For a single person, two people, or two couples, it is perfect. The view is absolutely fantastic. The interior is lovely, clean, and well-kept. Two fantastic bedrooms upstairs. The Villa is equipped with everything you will need. This property is so convenient for everything. Marcia is a fantastic, helpful, and communicative host. What more can I say than I have already booked for the end of 2024 into January 2025, doubling the time I will be staying.

Amazing stay at the Stowaway
We just returned back from a week long stay at the Stowaway and it was a trip to remember. From the minute we booked, Marcia was incredibly helpful, offering a full list of things to visit and do in St. John. The pictures online don't do this place justice! The views are simply stunning, there are two decks one on each floor. The villa is up a steep hill, very tranquil and quiet. It is a very close drive to town, we would drive in every night and park in a lot. We rented a Bronco in St. Thomas, and drove it over on the ferry as Marcia recommended and it was wonderful advice. We will be back soon and stay here. We had our three young children who really enjoyed the place as well. She has everything and more in stock! It's a great place!

About the host

Hosted by Marcia Darnell

Host profile image
As a yacht designer, I have sailed most of the Caribbean. St John is by far the best place to live and vacation. You will also be talking to my daughter, Marcia, who manages the bookings and finances. My home, Callaloo, is mid island on St John.

Before buying in St. John, we considered settling on St. Barths. I weighed the pros and cons of each place. St. Barths offers a bit of Paris (a place I adore), but St. John offered a lot more of everything else. Dependable, affordable phone and internet service, 22 beaches, good dining (although pricey), affordable air fares, hiking trails, and the heavy hand of the US Government which keeps St. John safe, beautiful, and accessible to all.

We respect nature, wildlife, beaches, reefs, and the sea. We adore our wild donkeys!
