We had a great stay at Nancy’s Folly. Kitchen had everything we needed. The place was very clean and tidy. The deck provided a fantastic view. Elise was very accommodating. She showed us grocery store locations on our way and great suggestions for restaurants.
Elise was an amazing host! She was 5 plus. Nancy's Folky was the perfect location with all we needed for home and the beach!!! The sunrise and sunsets are breathtaking! We will be back!!!

Thank you Jill. Looking forward to you both returning soon, hopefully to celebrate the big day! Congratulations 🎉
This property was outstanding! Spacious, clean, and just breathtaking views. The big porch overlooking the water is so peaceful and relaxing. Elyse made sure we had everything we needed and even had floats and snorkels for our children. When we arrived on the island, Elyse made sure there was someone waiting for us to show us the way to the villa. 5 stars all the way for Nancy's Folly!
My husband, sister-in-law and brother-in-law stayed here for a week in this lovely well equipped rental with a fabulous view overlooking Rendezvous Bay. From the start, Elise was most helpful. We loved every minute here!

Great property, beautiful views. Airconditioning in bedrooms only, but there's a great breeze in the living and kitchen area so we never got too hot. We really enjoyed our stay here!

A stunning open layout with a deck you will never want to leave! Elise, the on-site property manager is a gem - knows everything about the island and very helpful, while maintaining your privacy
Everything was fantastic on the trip. The location, views, accommodations, especially the nice large kitchen, the long deck and great furniture for lounging and playing cards. Our host was super friendly and informative. Planning to come back next year.

Thank you Steve. We look forward to your return next year!
This was a beautiful home with everything you could possibly need right at your fingertips! It was sparkling clean and comfortable. Views off the balcony were stunning and the neighborhood was charming and quiet - tucked away from the main areas, but close enough to access the whole island! A beautiful gem of a get away for our family vacation!

Thank you Dustin. It was a pleasure having you and your family stay at Nancy's Folly and we look forward to your return. Best wishes for a wonderful summer. Elise
We are a family of three adults and the house more than met our needs. It is well furnished and comfortable with a gorgeous view. It is situated a few minutes drive to Cruz Bay and grocery stores but far enough away to be peaceful. Communicating with Elise, the property manager, was easy and she was incredibly helpful. We would definitely stay there again having been to St. John five times now.

Thank you Michael & Nancy. We're thrilled that you enjoyed your stay and look forward to hosting you again in the future. Elise
My daughter (age 15) and I stayed for a week at Nancy's Folly. It was perfect! The villa was well appointed and had everything we needed and more. We didn't need the AC once, the breeze coming off the ocean was perfect and there's nothing like waking up to a view. The property manager, Elise, was quick to answer any questions. I would absolutely stay here again and recommend it to anyone visiting St. John.

Thank you Jessie. We look forward to seeing you again. All the best, Elise
We enjoyed our stay at Nancy’s Folly. Jackie was easy to communicate with and quick to respond to a couple of minor issues during our 9 day stay. The Villa agency made our taxi reservations for us removing one layer of travel planning for us! The views are quite beautiful from the Villa and it’s in a very convenient location. All in all a wonderful visit.

The villa was extremely clean and well maintained. It was actually nicer than the pictures indicate. Great view. Close to Cruz Bay. The contact person who lives downstairs was helpful, informative, and accommodating (and we barely knew she was there).
We definitely recommend.
