Flamingo House was a lovely stay. All the thoughtful amenities were so useful and each room beautifully decorated. The fans and AC in every room were a nice luxury. Beds were comfortable, and backyard a nice hangout.

Week stay April 2024

This was a wonderful base for our week St John stay. Excellent location with easy walk into town (steep hill with a suitcase but generally not a difficult walk). Parking is convenient on site. All the information provided by the hosts was accurate and we followed many of their recommendations. We would absolutely stay at Flamingo House again!

Flamingo Tide

The place is a great location and view of the sunset over the water. Our host Amanda sent us an extensive list of recommendations as well as provided a printout with many additional recommendations and best way to go about town and getting reservations. Highly recommend. Only downside is walking up the hill to the condo but overall worth it.

Hillcrest

The accommodations were amazing and the view is great! Recommendation if walking up Hill St; start walking a zigzag pattern when you hit the halfway point to the top! You will thank your legs and lungs.

Highly Recommend

Our family of 5 stayed in this apartment for two nights during our spring break island hop and loved it so much we really didn’t want to leave! The host was incredibly helpful and prompt with a response a couple of times when we needed extra assistance. We loved the decor and little details that made the property feel high-end. The deck, with its teak dining set was a lovely spot for a tropical drink and an appetizer before walking into Cruz Bay for a variety of fabulous dinner options! The beds were comfortable, the shower was spacious and nice shower soaps were provided. We highly recommend and will be back!

Hilltop

Sitting at the very top of a hill, everything at the apartment was great. The deck was particularly delightful, offering lovely breezes and views of the bay below. The downside of being at the top of the hill is the very steep climb by either foot or car to get there. Parking was also a challenge. Otherwise it was perfect!

Wonderful accommodation!

We had a wonderful stay in this lovely home. The kitchen is well stocked. The decor is very well done. Wonderful view from the awesome porch. The hike up the hill is totally doable - good exercise!! Since there is only 1 bathroom for 3 bedrooms - - hooks in the bedrooms would help for hanging towels. Warning: We did get a ticket despite parking on the hill as instructed. I would recommend not parking on the corner! The drop off to the parking on the hill was harder for our Durango and that is why we parked up higher. We walked out and talked to the police woman and informed her that we would move our car. She still gave us the ticket which was annoying! Overall - highly recommend this lovely home.

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay with us! Regarding the parking, we let everyone know that you CANNOT park directly in front of the building, or you will get ticketed. There is ample space for off-street parking just over to the side. Good news - we are in the permitting process to add an entire parking area to the back of the property! It cannot come soon enough!
