Crowsnest Difficult Access
Friendly property manager and free Jeep. Limited access to non air conditioned upstairs bedroom via narrow spiral staircase. From the 30 degree incline on the driveway to the steep unlighted outdoor stairway, this is an unsafe place. Overall friendly vibe of a 60’s youth hostel with beautiful palm trees and birds singing.

Nice
Dana and Trevor were excellent hosts. Though we already had a ride to the unit, Gina had offered to pick us up at the ferry and drive us to the unit. Trevor gave us a great tour of the unit, commented on things that we could do in the area and gave us a quick tutorial on the best way to park the car that was part of the rental. The unit was very clean. The parking was a little daunting at first. Being an island shaped like a mountain, the roads are steep with switchbacks, and the unit sat on the side of a hillside. Upside the view was spectacular. Downside, a steep grade to get in and out of the parking space. we were a little wary at first going up and down the road, but we soon got the hang of it and didn’t think twice about it. But just beware, the grades going up and down in Saint John can be very, very steep. Some things we wish we had brought more of with us Are bug spray. The mosquitoes were horrific. If you’re prone to getting bug bites, bring some strong bug spray. My son and I were getting 10 to 15 mosquito bites a day despite wearing bug spray. But my daughter didn’t get bit at all. So depends on your chemistry. We would stay there again. We never got around to using the pool, though it looked great. Hiking trails were right there and we took advantage of them so that was nice. We use the beach chairs and the cooler bag provided. Also wish we had brought laundry pods with us to do laundry at the on-site laundry facilities.would recommend this if you want to specta

Happy to have found Palmy Daze
Palmy Daze was a welcome respite after days snorkeling at any of the many beaches and coves we explored. The property was located not far from town off the main road that goes across the island. It was clean and well equipped with everything we needed for casual evening meals and to relax after a day in the sun and water. The slow cooker was a welcome surprise and we put it to use several times. The roads took a good day to get used to but we knew we couldn’t get lost, especially since we weren’t always firm on where we were going. Our trip happened to coincide with Carnival which was an unexpected delight to experience. The activity made parking in Cruz Bay a little extra but Garet’s advice to pay to park and enjoy yourself was perfect. It was July so we expected heat and humidity but the dramatic rain showers and breezes were a bonus. Next time we’d like to get to do more hiking when the weather is a little bit cooler. The advice someone shared to not pack too much as you’ll be in your bathing suit all the time was absolutely correct. Great place to meet up with family for a vacation.

Nice and clean villa with comprehensive amenities!
My family stayed here for 5 days and it was great! Overall it was very clean and homey, and the host Garet and property manager Dena were super kind and helpful! Free Jeep included in the rent also makes this such a sweet deal, which I don't think you can find anywhere else on St.John. With so many things going on with my life, I really hope I will find another chance to visit this beautiful island and stay at this place again soon!

We loved this place!
This place was wonderful. Our group was my husband and me and my mother-in-law and my daughter who is 2.5. My husband and I stayed upstairs and everyone else shared the room downstairs. Everyone was very comfortable. The view was beautiful. The location is as great and the pool was also beautiful and a salt water pool which really makes a difference. We had just 3 minor criticisms: 1 the listing said hot tub and there is no hot tub. 2. One of the two coin op washing machines was broken and ate our money. 3. Some of the furniture by the pool just needed to be taken to the dump as it was irreparably damaged.

Convenient to Cruz Bay
Two 60+ yr olds, coming to STJ for ages. Location to Cruz is ideal. Communication w/Garet was very easy and quick. Plenty of beach chairs and snorkel equipment. Wish the A/C in MBR was more effective. Only used pool once- no hand rail on stairs going into pool so if you have bad knees, be aware. Upstairs BR is comfy and is very breezy and offers another choice. No issues w/bugs. An excellent choice if you have good knees, still a good choice if you don’t!

We love this property. The AC in the master bedroom is a nice touch but wasn’t needed. Short 7 minute drive to downtown Cruz Bay and the beaches of North Shore. Paddle board and fins that were at the condo are amazing! So much fun for our kids. And all the beach chairs were great. The Jeep wrangler is perfect for the island and saved us a lot of money. Will definitely stay again!!

We were a group of 5 adults and 1 6 yo kid. The fact that the property came with a car big enough to hold all of us was a steal. The property itself was in a good location just 5-10 minutes away from Red Hook. Fold out sofa in the living was surprisingly comfortable. All in all we would definitely stay at the property again.

Great vacation stay
The property was clean and had all the amenities we needed to make our stay great. It’s located not too far from town off one of the main roads. With the kitchen equipped we were able to make a lot of our meals which saved us a lot of money from eating out. Having Dena meet us at the ferry and taking us to the condo was extremely helpful as we were still recovering from the taxi ride over 😳. Having a 7 passenger vehicle was perfect for all of us to travel around in. It did take some time getting use to the roads but by day 3 we were good. If you have motion sickness these roads will definitely trigger it but go slow and most people just go around you if they need to. Definitely a huge plus to already have the vehicle vs having to rent one. The pool was the perfect size for the kids to enjoy. Lots chairs to sit on of beautiful floral landscape to enjoy. There were 3 iguanas who would come out every morning to eat the flowers off a nearby tree. It was amusing to watch as we drank coffee on the deck. While it was pretty warm there is a good amount of breeze that flows through the windows making it comfortable to sleep at night with the addition of the fans running. Don’t bother packing lots of clothes I think we were in our bathing suits 80% of the time…lol. Swimming, snorkeling and hiking are all must do’s at St. Johns!! I would definitely come again and stay at Palmy Daze! Thank you Garet and Dena for making our stay wonderful!

This rental is awesome, and you can include use of the car for not much extra per day! We were picked up at ferry and dropped back off at the end of our stay, added service we found to be very helpful and it offsets the cost of including the vehicle. Deck space in the evening is heaven, beds very comfy, everything spotless and useful, beach chairs another cost effective (and provides freedom) added touch. There is nothing a would recommend the owner and manager change about this perfect rental offering on St. John. We'd be very likely to return here if we ever come back to the island.

Wedding/vacation
Not being familiar with St. John, we did not realize it was so hilly or that there were so many steps and steep incline to get into the property. That being said, it was just 5 minutes from Cruz Bay and having a car was definitely a plus. You definitely could not walk it. The only problem with having a car, any place you go in Cruz Bay, you have to pay to park the car. There is literally zero chance of getting any parking. Dena, the property manager, was so pleasant and prompt with any of our questions. The property was clean and spacious (there were six of us), with a view of the bay from the deck, and it had everything we needed. We were there for our grandson's wedding and needed to stay close to Cruz Bay, and this fit the bill. If you are adventurous, take the car (you drive on the left side of the road!) and go to the other end of the island (Coral Bay area) over what we called the Heart Attack Highway! Steep and very narrow roads but the various bays and water were gorgeous. Plenty of snorkeling and kayaking available. People everywhere were extremely friendly.

Snorkeling At Its Best
This property is as they have described it. It truly is off the beaten path. It took a while to get used to the location and especially the driveway. Our two grandchildren, a 6-year old and a 4-year old, had to be watched at all times going to and from the van. It is on a steep slope and the driveway is in the middle of the slope. It was worth the hassle having the van included in the rental. We traveled with a party of 6. We had enough space. The only difficulty we had was the lack of air conditioning in the whole house. The master bedroom was airconditioned, but we had to keep the door shut to keep it cooled. There were three fans and ceiling fans in the other parts of the house, but no air conditioning. We had the pool to ourselves daily. We literally went all over the island, and there are many beautiful beaches to snorkle--all with crystal clear water. Sea turtles and stingrays swam right along shore. The underwater life was spectacular. We had a great trip.
