The 'Cottage' at Lion's Gate - Check for our Spring & Summer Specials

My husband Chris and I have lived on St. Thomas for over 20 years. He came to dive, I came to sail. We met by chance and discovered we both have a love of the water and the Caribbean life style. Chris is very talented and knew he wanted to live here permanently, so he built a house on the top of the hill. We got married in 1995, and often talked about making the home we love accessible to guests.
In 2012 we built are prefect Caribbean Cottage. It is a Caribbean dream cottage with spectacular views. We face into the trade winds so there is always a breeze over the porch. Facing East we have stunning sunrises over Pillsbury Sound with St. John in the background.

I'm sure up will love it too. 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. The trade winds will keep you cool as you sit outside from breakfast to diner, and of course if needed there is air conditioning.

My husband, Chris, and I live on the property. We will help you enjoy your vacation in any way we can. Just ask for local tips on restaurants and activities.

Loved the views. It was right on the harbor so was noisy early mornings. The driveyway was steep but we were warned about this. Parking was limited but also warned. Hostess had everything we needed for the beach which was a great surprise!

Wonderful!

We booked this property when we had to make last minute travel plans and it was everything it advertised! Beautiful view and perfect for a couple. We loved having a full kitchen and the beautiful deck. We did rent a car and unless you’re looking for some serious cardio up that hill I’d recommend it. We loved our stay!

Amazing house, amazing view, amazing host!

We truly enjoyed our stay here while on the island for 7 days. Maxine did everything to ensure we were taken care of and went above and beyond. A beautiful house on a beautiful location, couldn’t have asked for more! I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a great place to call home on vacation.

Paradise

My partner and I took a vacation to the Virgin Islands for the first time in August. We chose to stay in Redhook because it was near many beaches, restaurants and shops. The cottage was a cozy and comfortable place and our view was astonishing! We couldn’t get enough of it, and the place was well kept and it offered many amenities that it made our stay extremely convenient. Thank you Maxine, Chris and louie for your hospitality. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to one day return to this amazing place 💗

Beautiful views and walkable to town!

My partner and I stayed for 15-days. We had a wonderful experience. Max & Chris made sure we had everything we needed during our stay. We rented a car for the first week and didn't have a car the second. The cottage is close enough to town to walk down for dinner or for a grocery run. You can also walk to Sapphire beach or catch the ferry over to St. John for the day. Great rental for couples looking for a getaway or single travelers.

Perfection. Charming Caribbean cottage. High on a hill with unmatched views of the harbor and surrounding islands. Tradewinds that cool the warm temperatures. Cottage has many unique features including handcrafted furniture and mahogany woodwork. Hosts that are warm, welcoming and helpful. Treat it well. We will be back next year. Tom and Carolee, 2024

Lovely hilltop cottage with magnificent views

Lions Gate Cottage is a beautiful spot for adults tucked very high up overlooking Red Hook Harbor and marina. Enjoyed watching the sunrise over St John Island. Kept doors and windows open to enjoy the breeze. Cottage very nicely appointed and owners kind and accomodating. Location close to restaurants, bars, Beautiful Magen's Bay, Lindquist Beach and Sapphire Beach. plus the supermarket, ferry to St John, and marina to arrange for day boating/snorkeling trips. About half hour ride from airport. Super cellphone coverage. Would rent again !

Beautiful views and great location

Wonderful stand alone cottage with great front porch to take in the views of Red Hook harbor and St John. Location is great for taking advantage of local beaches. It was 20 minutes to Magens bay which was our favorite, Cottage is close to the town of Red Hook which has the best selection of stores, restaurants and Happy Hours!! Hosts are on site and very responsive when we needed anything. Yet you have absolute privacy. They also gave us great tips for things to do. The road up to the cottage is steep and windy ( like many of the roads on St Thomas) so make sure you rent a car that can handle it. We had a Jeep.

Great view but have a rental car!

Beautiful view to wake up to everyday, having a morning coffee on the balcony and seeing the sunrise every morning was awesome. Listen to their recommendation they give in the listing when they say to have a car. Absolutely have a rental car to stay here. We were two in shape young adults and it was brutal walking up the hill 2-3 times a day in the heat. The location is great though for red hook restaurants and bars. Catamaran dock ports and scuba diving right there. You need a cab to get to any beach but they aren’t far at all! Fav one was secret harbor beach. Definitely check out duffys love shack down the hill- super fun place.

Absolutely perfect!

The house is lovely and well appointed. Everything we needed in the kitchen to have coffee and make breakfast right there. The view is amazing! Wrap around covered porch allowed us to enjoy the outside even when we had a bit of rain. Very comfortable. Maxine and Chris are gracious hosts and Louie visited regularly lol. You can close the gate if you’d prefer to not have visits from Louie. The walk up and down the hill was very doable for us. We are fairly active but not young. If you’d prefer not to walk it, a taxi will gladly take you up for $5 pp (feb 2022). We will definitely book with them again when we return to St Thomas and recommend to all of our family and friends!

Beautiful views and perfect location

Pictures do this place no justice. The view is outstanding even at night. Perfect amount of space for two with a full sized kitchen and bathroom. You cannot beat having the view while being so close to the main restaurant/bar/ferry area of Red hook. Only piece of advice is the hill (mountain) to walk up is no joke. The walk down is a piece of cake but going up is a workout. I would reccomend taking a cab or car up. If you are unable to walk up a steep incline or have health problems then you should not walk this. We loved everything about this place, we felt safe and secure. There are also French doors that you can leave open at night to feel the breeze. I would highly recommend!

Perfect Caribbean Charmer!

Our recent stay at Lionsgate cottage was island perfection. Max, owner, graciously picked us up in Red Hook upon arrival. The cottage is so lovely & well appointed. It’s obvious Max has put great deal of thought into making the cottage perfect for her guests. I already miss morning coffee on the spacious porch, which I described as my perch above Red Hook. The views are wonderful & give a true sense of island escape. The kitchen has all needed to prepare a light breakfast to a full meal. Also, we appreciated the pieces of furniture made by Max’s husband, including a beautiful Mahogany bed! Lionsgate is conveniently located to the ferry, market and restaurants. Less than 5 minutes to all these amenities. A trip highlight was sailing with Max! It was our favorite day of the trip. We highly recommend Lionsgate & hope to return next winter.

Simply lovely

This was my first to the USVI, and I’m so glad I found this place. It was perfect for a solo traveler like me and would be great for a couple (and a child could sleep on the futon in the living area.) I felt safe with Max & Chris there and the fact that it is gated is a plus. Of course Louis (the sweet dog) was an added bonus (and there a gate on the porch if you’re not up for his visits.) Speaking of the porch, the view is superb. When I was at the apartment, I spent nearly all of my time on the porch unless I was sleeping. Max & Chris are great. They were always available to answer a question or provide assistance. And they’re nice! I could not have asked for better hosts. I ate at several good restaurants in Red Hook (Urban XO, Agave), which is walkable but recommend getting a (small) car so you can more easily explore the nearby bays/beaches and other restaurants. In short, definitely recommend and hope to make it back for another amazing holiday.

Acerca del anfitrión

Anfitrión: Maxine Lavitt

Chris and I came from different parts of the country, He from California and me from New York City. He came to dive and I came to sail. We both had businesses doing just that.
We have both retired and enjoy traveling and sharing our wonderful property with guests.

Por qué eligió esta propiedad

The view and the breeze are something I never get tired of. Not even after all these years. It would be hard for us to ever move from here. The parrots and hummingbirds are personal friends.

Qué distingue a esta propiedad

We are close to everything but feel a million miles away when we reach the top of the hill.

The breeze keeps us cool year round. You can sit out on the porch with views of the active harbor and see St John just across Pillsbury Sound.

Easy to go down the hill for dinner or to the market.
You can easily catch the ferry to St.John or Tortola in the BVI at the bottom of the hill.
