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.

This cottage was ideal! Spectacular views of Red Hook, St. John, and more. The room was perfect, and the cottage was spacious. Maxine and Chris were the perfect hosts. They gave great beach advice and were always accommodating. We cannot say enough good things about our stay!

Chris and Maxine, We just wanted to take a moment to thank you both for being such gracious hosts during our stay at your lovely cottage. It truly had everything we needed, and the location was so convenient to the beaches, restaurants, and ferry.We especially miss those beautiful sunrises we enjoyed with our coffee on the porch. Chris, your suggestions for quieter spots to visit were wonderful and made our experience even better.We really enjoyed our first visit to St. Thomas and hope to come back soon!J&J

Beautiful location, perfect one bedroom and one bath cottage overlooking USVI. The clean bedroom, bath, kitchen, dining, and living room area was perfectly inviting and cozy for two. Loved the magnificent view from every room. The kitchen is perfectly stocked with everything you need to store groceries, cook, and stay in (we took a recovery day from two days of sun on the beach).Beach towels, beach chairs, snorkel gear provided also!Separately, I recommend considering a rental car for your stay in St Thomas and the cottage. Unless you are staying right on the beach, you will need a car anyway with no feasible walking areas. I admittedly debated it and took the the host's recommendation to rent a car. When you stay at the cottage, the main road is at a significant distance from the cottage, and the road is steep enough to challenge anyone not prepared with the best footwear (or physical training imo). Do not be put off by this, in order to have the best view in St Thomas, you need to drive to the top of the hill. Also, consider making sure you rent the smallest car available since the parking area is shared (it is very snug fit). This is not a slight on the host, the location, or the cottage by the way. As well, I found I needed to be prepared to "share my lane" with everyone else - all the time - regardless of where we went in St Thomas.This VRBO is a true gem... The hosts are wonderful, the property is wonderful, and this VRBO offering is staying on my favorite list!

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!

The home was absolutely beautiful and spacious. There were only 4 of us with our own room. The master bedroom upstairs is massive. We had a lovely and comfortable time there. Lisa the host was easy to contact throughout the stay. Be aware Washington is very much into recycling. We had a bit of trouble not overfilling the small garbage bin.The home is on a slanted hill so I would suggest a SUV if you are doing a rental as not to scrape your vehicle. I do look forward to staying again next time I visit Washington.

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.

We do have a spectacular view. I'm so glad they enjoyed it the way I do.
Half of my guests rent a car. The hill is steep but not a bad walk up or down. I do it every day with Louie, my dog. We both enjoy it. He told me so.
Either way the breeze and the view make it a very special place.
Sobre o anfitrião
Anfitrião: 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 que o anfitrião escolheu essa propriedade
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.
O que faz essa propriedade ser única?
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.
