Cottages in Water Island

"We stayed at the end of March 2025! First, the host is top notch! She will give you all the advice you need for planning your trip! Take it and do your own research as there is soooo much to do within your limited time there. Also, Bob the grounds keeper is very friendly and helpful too! Location: you’re on Coral Bay, super convenient for those looking for adventure as you can access the whole island from the less populated side of the island and skip traffic heading to the north side beaches....

"My wife and I recently stayed at Moonglow Cottage. We had a wonderful time and everything was perfect! The property manager, Bob, made checking in easy. The location was great, the views from the house were beautiful. We had a great trip and hope to stay at Moonglow in the future! Thank you!"

"The hosts were absolutely phenomenal. They went above and beyond to ensure our stay was everything we hoped it would be and more. The location was perfect… off the beaten path. The views were breathtaking. Looking forward to coming back. "

"terrifiic view of bay, decor very nice, supplied nicely, quiet side of island but adequate amenities-groceries, restaurants, even kayaks ! no air in living area but seldom needed, air units in bedrooms somewhat noisy but work well."

"We had a great stay, loved the view, and all the necessities provided! Quick ride to Cruz Bay, and easy access to all of STJ. Thanks fir having us, we’ll be back!"

"Exactly as described. Has everything you need. Hosts are very nice. Short drive to most places on the island. We enjoyed ourselves"

"The cottage was super clean and very comfortable! Loved having a king sized bed and new appliances and furniture. The owner and his father who lives next door was very kind and responsive. They even allowed us to check in early and we arrived to a welcome bottle of local rum in celebration of our 20th anniversary. What a lovely touch! The cottage is in a great location on the east side of the island and was no more than a 15 minute drive to beautiful beaches and great restaurants. Renting a...

"Away from it all with a great view. Rental is a must and address a little hard to find. Kudos to some dude walking his dog who helped us out. Great owner and good communication. Look forward to going back. St John is the best. "

"We spent a wonderful week at Casie's property perched high on a mountain side with a stunning view of the bay, beautiful sunrises, and bright moonlit nights! The place was clean and comfortable, and the checkin/checkout process was a breeze. Casie lives nearby so comms with her were easy and she always responded in a timely manner. We would absolutely consider returning to Casie's place on a future trip to St. John's."

"VRBOs are hit or miss, but this place is an absolute hit. The host did all the little things to make us feel welcomed- waters, bug spray, little shampoos, coffee. Plus, what a beautiful place - truly a gem tucked in the “jungle” of St. John. As others have written, getting there is quite the adventure - the steepest streets I have ever been on and many discarded vehicles to get around, but nothing the hosts can do about that. Lovely visit. "

"Located on the QUIET side of the island. Lovely. Don’t necessarily stay here if you love Cruz Bay but we hate Cruz Bay so this was perfect for us. This is not a negative but the bed is slightly difficult to maneuver if you are old or have knee/back problems, etc. And ceiling so low over bed, there can’t be a ceiling fan. There is air conditioning but we never had to use it. The kitchen is reasonably sparse but adequate for basic cooking. Total peace and quiet and a fabulous view."

"Tommy was great to work with. Loved being able to walk to the beach. Great for sunsets. Cottage worked great for us. Note that there is no view from the cottage. It’s tucked away. If you’re looking for a place with a view this is not it. Also note the Peter Bay beach is small (narrow). Great for sitting in chairs. Not great for swimming (too rocky). But this worked for us. Enjoyed our stay."
