Peaceful mountain stay
We chose this place as a quiet but close location to town. It was so wonderful to sit on the deck and listen to the birds in the morning and have coffee. It’s perfect for size for two! Everything you need is provided! Michael and Barbara were extremely responsive and even suggested events going on around the island! We come back annually and will definitely stay with them again.

Rain forest gem
This place is awesome. We were lucky to stay there 3 days- we wish it was longer. The views are stunning, the bed is comfy, the porch is great. We enjoyed meeting Michael and Barbara, their son and pups. Constant contact and they met us after we landed. You will want to rent a vehicle. We used a small SUV which did the job just fine! Hope to return soon.

Adventure Awaits
Absolutely adorable cottage in the mountains of St Croix. If you’re looking for an adventurous time on the island, this is your place. The owner is so friendly and accommodating. Please rent a 4WD vehicle if you want to stay here as it is absolutely necessary in the rainy season. Close to beautiful Cane Bay and Christiansted and central to basically everything.

Dreamy escape
Everything about our stay was top notch. I grew up in St Croix, and wanted to stay somewhere off the beaten path. The house was well kept and surrounded by gorgeous, lush rainforest. It is a short drive to Cane Bay, and easy access to Christiansted and Frederiksted. Michael was an incredible host — met us at the airport and made sure we had what we needed all week. And the regular visits from his dogs was the icing on the cake. Couldn’t have been a better stay.

Peaceful Retreat
Looking for some peace and quiet? This is the location! Everything you'll need is here. No traffic. No loud neighbors. The property was very clean and fully equipped. The views out to sea are awesome. My host was great. Came out to the airport to welcome me. Gave me the run down of the property and the neighborhood. Very easy to get a hold of with any questions. It's a short ride to everything like Pueblo supermarket, restaurants and clubs. A wonderful experience and plan to return for a longer visit.

Perfect Quiet Vacation w/ amazing views
The owner, Michael, met us at the airport and led us back to the property. You couldn't meet a more helpful, friendly host. What a great guy!
Everything was as pictured. The place was clean, quiet, and had amazing views. We went by the supermarket on the way and stocked up for the week. The kitchen has virtually everything you need.
The Wi-fi worked great and phone service was good as there are several towers on the adjacent mountain.
Cane Bay Beach is a 5 minute drive away. It is has amazing views on a sunny day. We just parked our rental along the edge of the road that parallels the beach. There are several good restaurants here as well.
The family dogs are occasional visitors and are super friendly. We loved having them around...especially Bear, the big black Lab/Chow mix.
So many more nice things to say. The place get 5 Star ratings for a good reason.
We will definately be back soon!
Thank You Michael for all the hospitality!

Great Stay Beautiful view
Our stay was amazing, I booked this trip for my husbands 40th birthday. We are avid beach goers so the location in proximity to the beach was perfect and the other places we'd made plans to visit we not far either. We really loved staying here the host were absolutely amazing and accommodating. We were a bottle of vodka from them, they have another vacation rental close by as well it was vacate during our stay so they let us choose which apartment we liked better. Michael's rental has a best view I've seen in my life. The location is off the beaten path and not so easy to find via GPS so Michael's wife met us at the airport to make sure we didn't any issues finding the place. long story short the place is as pictured, it was clean, comfy any fully stocked with all necessities needed.

Amazing/lovely place. If you want to stay at the top of the mountain and you’re ok with driving up the hill in a 4X4 as a small adventurous ride this is definitely the place to stay. Sunrise and sunset views here are priceless. The owner is cool and is available all the time to help if needed. Thank you, we will definitely go back.

Great trip and great host
We loved the property and the views that it affords. Having the privacy of being in the mountains, but 20 to 30 minutes from most of the places we wanted to see and hang out was awesome. Being less than five minutes from Cane Bay was very convenient. Michael was wonderful, he was there if you needed him, And Bear and Ginger the property dogs made us feel just like we were at our own home. They also aren’t overbearing, if you want them around they pick up on it and hang out, but they are pretty timid and would leave I think if you didn’t want them there. Great stay, pretty cool house, and a wonderful island. Will definitely be back to Saint Croix and stay with Michael.

Most gorgeous peaceful view!
Well, first off we didn’t read any reviews and rented a Rio car. Might have been a better idea to rent a SUV or jeep we later discovered. Michael met us at the airport to guide us to his beautiful property, which was very kind so we didn’t get lost because our cell service was in and out. It’s very private and so peaceful if your looking to get away from all the madness of the city in the states. Totally will refresh your soul.
We missed our Louie Boston Frenchie so we met had Ginger and Booger Bear to hang out with us at night. The bed and sofa are so comfy and nice. Internet and cell service worked great on top of the mountain. Michael responses very quickly if you have any questions or need help.
Our favorite hangout spot was a straight shot down to Cane Bay. Love everything about this place. We will be back.

The place is awesome, the host is amazing!
Definitely one of our best vacation experiences ever.
The place is exactly like the photos, waking up to this view every morning is just priceless!
The location is very central, about 20 min drive to either ends of the island including all the beautiful beaches the island has to offer.
Michael, the host, is a real local and he's certainly the most friendly and gracious host I ever dealt with. He met us at the airport, lead us to the cottage and volunteered to give us all the good tips on what to do and where to go. All his tips were on point.
If you're looking for a secluded retreat that's still a short drive to anywhere you wanna go, look no further. It's worth every penny.

Host will walk you through every step and ensure you have an amazing experience and go above and beyond to accommodate you and your family/friends needs. Location is extremely secluded, scenic and literally on the mountain top. Again, this property has amazing views, do not hesitate to book.

A view of St. Croix like no other!
Staying in Blue Cottage A was my first VRBO experience. But definitely not my last! The property was perfect for writing and relaxing. The cottage is immaculate, spacious, and bright. One can cook just about anything in the full kitchen. The porch...you just have to see it! The sights and sounds of the sea each morning began my days with optimism and joy. The cool evening breezes calmed my spirit. Still, words fail to capture just how beautiful St. Croix is from the vantage point of the cottage.
Michael is a first-rate host and human being. He treated me like a family member coming home for a visit. In all my years of travel, I have seldom encountered such genuine kindness and hospitality. I would return to Estate Belvedere just to see Michael again. And, the company of my writing and lounging companions--Bear & Kacha (Michael's dogs)--made me feel like I belonged with them, in St. Croix.
