Had a great stay. If you are looking for a quiet place away from the town's traffic noise, this is it. Great views of the town below from the terrace/balcony and kitchen. The modern and quiet air conditioning system in the kitchen was enough to cool the whole apartment, but if you need some extra cold, the bedrooms have their own AC. It was a pleasure to chat with the owner and learn about the island and its history.
Mr. Prince property was spotless, clean china, neat rooms, cleaners, coffee filters and AC, everything was just right and Mr Prince was very friends and accommodating. Location close to Cruz Bay, scenic view. I would higher recommend his VRBO.
This is a great place to stay. It's not a fancy resort, Just a two bedroom apartment. If your going to spend your time exploring the island and the waters around then save your money and stay here, not an expensive resort!
Mr. Prince is a pleasure. The property is exactly as described. Nothing fancy, but clean and comfortable. If you’re going to be out all day exploring beautiful St John, this is a great affordable place to stay. We would stay again.
Home away from home. All of our essentials were covered. Plenty of clean soft towels, a clean home, and a welcoming place to come back to at the end of the day.
Our family of four enjoyed our stay at Mr. Prince’s place. He was a great, responsive host. The house was clean, comfortable and well located. We could walk to Cruz Bay restaurants in about 15 minutes. Thanks to Mr. Prince for a great stay!
This spot was great. We had everything we needed, and the hosts were so helpful and friendly. They provided water and a fruit bowl upon our arrival, which was very kind.
There is a major construction project going on next door, but it didn't bother us at all.

This was a great stay for me overall. Not only will I go back there and recommend it but this will be my only place to rent from from now on when I’m in Saint John. Thank you again Mr. Ralph and Lucea.
House was great and as described. Fresh flowers placed throughout the house. That was a nuce surprise. Parking is a little tricky but overall pleased. Will stay here again!

The address is 13C Contant road. It is one half of the upper floor of the building. New construction going up in the neighboring property.
Expedia's map has the location on the wrong part of Contant road.
The road is quite steep. Backing out and turning around takes practice.
Otherwise, the facility is good & clean. We appreciated the cooler, the beach towels and chairs, etc..
We stayed again at contant farms, after having stayed last winter. It was just as great as we remembered. We didn’t mind walking up the hill daily, but if that’s a dealbreaker for you, you may want to look elsewhere. But for us, it was the perfect place to stay. We will certainly stay again in the future, given the opportunity.
Mr. Prince was a lovely host. This property is a great home base to explore the beautiful island of St . John. You can walk to Cruz Bay from this property, but it is on a very steep hill and could be a challenge for some. The home is older, but well cared for. We enjoyed our stay and the price is a bargain!
We enjoyed our stay immensely and would definitely return to this rental! The owner is very sweet, left fresh flowers, a fruit bowl, and a couple gallons of water. We had hot water, A/C, and a super convenient location just a couple of minutes from downtown Cruz Bay. We will probably be back at some point! :)
We loved our stay at this convenient 2 bedroom apartment. We were able to eat our breakfasts at the apartment and make lunches to eat when we were out hiking. We ate at restaurants most evenings. The apartment was clean, and it was the perfect size as our base for hiking, exploring the ruins, and enjoying the beaches. St. John is a beautiful island. Thank you, Mr. Prince, for your hospitality and for making us feel comfortable and welcome.

The host, Mr. Prince, is SO welcoming. We couldn’t find the property as our flights got delayed and we arrived after dark. Mr. Prince came down to a gas station to meet us so we could follow him to the house. It’s a great location and he provided all that we needed. We will definitely visit again!
Loved the small quiet home away from home. We had no problems while we were there. Stayed cool with the window ac. Full kitchen we didn't use. Balcony views where the car ferries come in/out. Small parking area. One of the two bedrooms has twin beds. It was prefect for us!
mr prince was lovely and available. the apartment was roomier than we expected, had plenty of closet and dresser space, bathroom was clean, plenty of bath and beach towels, beach chairs, cooler, noodles, a grill, stove.. everything you could need. there was even bug spray and dish soap, and mr prince left us some drinking water in case we hadnt gotten any yet. it was dark when we arrived, and he met us at the gas station so we could follow him to the apartment. my kids loved the view. thanks so much, mr prince!
