Lion's Gate Getaway- Lush Setting. Check for seasonal discounts

Lions Gate Getaway is a private studio apartment in a lush, tropical setting, humming birds share your 270 degree view of St. John, Tortola and Red Hook Harbor. In just a few minutes you can walk into Red Hook for shopping, dinner, drinks and night life or catch the ferries to St. John and the BVI.

The spacious porch is a perfect way to enjoy your first cup of coffee or to sit back in the evening and watch the colors change over the islands with a cool beverage in your hand as the breeze passes by.

My husband Chris and I have lived on St. Thomas for over 20 years. He came to dive, I came to sail. We met and discovered we both had a love of the water and the Caribbean life style. Chris built this house on the top of the hill, and now we have expanded it to accommodate guests in our apartment that captures the Caribbean life style. We look forward to helping you enjoy your vacation in any way we can. Just ask for local tips on restaurants and activities.

Lovely Stay Overlooking Quaint Bustling Red Hook

Great patio setting overlooking Red Hook. We could see a lot of the bay area, which made it a great setting for coffee, tea, or cocktail. Could see the comings and goings of the ferry's going over to St. John’s. Easy drive to lots of beaches. Our favorite was Lindquist. Max and Chris were super nice and helpful. Lots of water toys for our enjoyment.

Lions Gate

Me and my fiancé (now husband) came to st. Thomas to get married. We stayed 10 days at Max and Chris' place. It was absolutely beautiful! The apartment was clean and stocked with anything we needed, besides our groceries. And the charm of the place was better than any fancy resort on the island. Just right up the hill from Red Hook. So grocery store, gas station, restaurants, shops, all within minutes from us. It is a steep hill to get up to the property, and a small vehicle is best for pulling all the way up in the driveway. There is also parking available right outside of the gate. Max and Chris were wonderful hosts. Just a text or call away if we needed anything. And their dog Louie was our buddy throughout our stay. All in all, was an beautiful place to stay with an amazing view. And we can't wait to come back!

The Views!

We enjoyed our time at Lion's Gate and the property had all the necessities. The hill is a bit of a challenge the first time up, but after that we did fine both driving and walking it. Location to Red Hook and the ferries is excellent, but with that you may also get noise from the late-night revelers below. We did have to close the windows due to that and then one night of rain. We ate on the terrace watching the harbor activity and enjoying the breeze. A new mattress/box spring may be in order and if they could figure out a way to have a hot tub/jacuzzi with those views, it would add another level of terrific. Chris and Max are good hosts; they communicated, were accommodating and from our interactions seem pretty easy-going. We would stay again.

Beautiful views

The little apartment on the side of the hill was just perfect for us. The drive is steep and a little scary but worth it. The parking was a little stressful. There’s not much room to turn around but we made it lol. If you get the chance talk with the owner he’s a delight. Overall we really enjoyed our getaway and would definitely return.

We loved our time at Lions Gate! Its quiet and peaceful and had just what we needed. We didnt expect beach chairs, beach towels (we brought our own), and a cooler, but and they all came in handy! Max and Chris were great hosts and we look forward to staying again in the future.

Cozy stay, great hosts

This place seemed more "authentic" than the other resort-style properties we looked at, and we're so glad we went with it! The view was wonderful and Maxine and Chris were great hosts with local insights. It was great to be walking distance to Red Hook, but keep in mind the road leading there is very steep, so would only consider it truly "walkable" if you're fairly athletic.

Top Rated

A quiet and restful retreat, ideal for a stay in Red Hook. Maxine and Chris were generous and considerate hosts; the apartment was well appointed; and the views from the covered porch exceptional—well worth the steep walk up the hill. We plan to return next year, and absolutely recommend the whole experience to others.

Staying with Max was amazing! The apartment has the most beautiful views, it's cozy, and Max and Chris were so helpful and hopsitable. It was the perfect size for two people and we loved hanging out on the patio to watch the sun set and boats come in. It's so close to everything in Red Hook as well which makes going out at night very nice. I highly recommend staying here!

An ideal place to get rejuvenated.

Ideal location close to restaurants, stores, beaches and St. John. Beautiful and cozy environment with a lovely views of the harbor St Thomas and St John. I was able to get some needed exercise when I chose to walk up and down the hill from the property. Chris and Max were charming and helpful.

Spectacular Views

Great property with magnificent views over the top of Red Hook. The property owners are great to work with. Our second stay here & my wife says the hill has gotten steeper since the last time, no issue as we drove up most of the time. Booked later this year for a few days before we head over to St John. Perfect location.

Words cannot express how beautiful the veiws, and the room/property is. It was wonderful to be so close to town and have the privacy of being tucked away. Chris and Maxine are wonderful hosts. They are so welcoming and giving us some great ideas to adventure around. I would definitely come back in the future.

Perfect Getaway!

The entire experience at Lion’s Gate was wonderful! The hosts are so kind and easy to get in touch with (they live upstairs from the rental.) The place looks just like the photos and has incredible views of the bay. The only drawback is location at the top of a steep hill, walking it is a workout and the taxi drivers have a hard time accessing it as well. We had a great time and would highly recommend this rental.

Red Hook/Lions Gate

Beautiful Apartment with overlook of Redhook and Saint Johns. Very appealing decorations/plants. Steep/narrow road to location from Red Hook. Just take your time, stay left and you can make it there safely and it's worth it. Affordable, good wifi and comfortable accommodations. Flowers and chocolates for my wife for anniversary were some of the best I've ever had arranged by locations for our yearly trip! May do again, but we do like to have variety of places we go, we'll see... Thanks Max and Chris!

Peaceful Stay In the Trees

I really cannot say enough about this rental. My partner and I were greeted by Max when we arrived who drove down the hill to take us up with our bags. The view from the front porch is incredible. The rental was extremely clean and well maintained. I loved looking at all the little personal touches to the house, it really felt like a well loved home. We also got to meet her husband, Chris, who met us at the grocery store to give us a ride up the hill with our groceries for the week. They both are so kind. Max was able to give us recommendations on where to go and what to stay away from. We loved spending every sunrise sitting on the porch having coffee and breakfast and watching the town below come to life. There was a perfect morning breeze on the porch every day, we really loved being able to open the windows and enjoy the open air. The shower is incredible. Open air, beautiful plants, it was so inviting and refreshing. We stocked the fridge and were able to have many meals at the house as there were plenty of dishes and utensils for us to use. Our favorite part of breakfast was getting to hang out with Louie when he would come to say hi :) If you don't mind the hike, the walk up and down the driveway is steep - but doable. You may need to take a couple of breaks every now and then but we liked it! We felt extremely safe behind the gate and were able to get away from the noise below. We loved getting to know Max and Chris and their history and would definitely stay again!

One of the best places we have stayed.

Maxine and Chris were very hospitable. They picked us up down the hill and dropped us off. They also let us checked in early. The view from their place was amazing!! We can’t get enough of it. The studio was well equipped and had everything you need for your stay. We would definitely come back if they would have us again. Thank you so much for having us. Pacha&Russell

Wonderful place!

Max and Chris are awesome hosts. The property has the best views in Red Hook. I loved everything about it. It was clean, spacious, and even came with a dog! Louie hung out on the porch with us while we ate breakfast in the morning. It was perfect. I would stay again. The climb up isn't for the weak, though. Get your quads ready for it. But, the view is worth it.

Chris and I met in St. Thomas. He came to dive and I to sail. Chris had dive boats and I had a day sail boat and business.
Couldn't have had a more perfect spot for diving and sailing.
We have both retired but still love it that we are lucky enough to live here.

Por qué eligió esta propiedad

Red Hook is on the East End of St Thomas. The breeze comes from the East keeping us cool all year long.
We are right above Red Hook the little town. There are restaurants, bars a market and the Ferries for St John depart right at the bottom of the hill.

Qué distingue a esta propiedad


From Lion’s Gate you can stroll down to Red Hook for dinner or to go shopping, or make a quick trip to the grocery store. It is all so close but when you are up here it seems a million miles away.

There are three beaches nearby, two are about 5 minutes by car, Secret Harbor is a hotel so there is a restaurant for drinks and lunch and palm trees for shade. The other beach is my favorite, Lindguist. they have picnic tables and life guards there. The apartment has beach chairs and beach towels for you to use.

All the ferries to ST. John, Tortola and Virgin Gorda depart from Red Hook, you can see them coming and going from the porch.

I always recommend renting a car as it is a great way to explore the whole island and you can even put the car on the ferry to St. John and experience the beauty of the National Park with all its beaches and trails. If you don’t want to rent a car we are just a short walk into Red Hook but it is up a big hill on the way home. There are safari busses at the bottom of the hill. They only go in one direction, clockwise, around the island. But a taxi will take you where ever you want to go.
