Beautiful private property.

It was a perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of the main land. It was clean and quiet. The outside area was amazing. The outdoor pool area lighting was great, but pop the lights off for a few minutes to really take in the gorgeous night sky without the light pollution we have become accustomed to. It is breathtaking.

Great Escape!

Our 2nd time staying at New Moon was just as wonderful and memorable as the 1st. The villa was clean and inviting, and the pool was immaculate as ever! The property managers were very responsive and helpful. Excellent location, very private and safe. Can’t wait to come back!!

Lovely little jungle getaway.

It was a great private and secluded residence where we felt comfortable and safe. I would not recommend this for anyone not comfortable driving a 4 wheel vehicle but then again that's all anyone should be driving on St.John anyway! The pool was refreshing as well.

Classic St. John

Nice, clean, private, comfortable house with beautiful grounds in a quiet, friendly neighborhood. Deck and pool are perfect for non-beach chill out days and the screened-in porch is lovely. Owner and property managers are friendly, laid-back, good communicators, and very helpful. We loved our time here, would come back again!

Peaceful Property

We really enjoyed our stay at New Moon. Basement was a bit musty smelling and dark, so we didn't go down there to watch tv. But who needs to watch tv in St. John. The property is peaceful with beautiful flowers and tropical trees, that was our favorite part.

Quiet retreat in Coral Bay

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. This is perfect spot for a couple seeking privacy, away from busy Cruz Bay. You definitely want a 4WD Jeep, we would not recommend anything else. Reserve early because we met a few people who wanted to rent a Jeep but they were all booked. The king bed was very comfortable, on the softer side. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare all our meals (ate out once in 10 days). The pool was fabulous to come back to after a busy day on the hiking trails, snorkeling and boating (recommend renting a Boston whaler for a full day). We didn’t use the room downstairs other than to do laundry. We did not need to watch TV downstairs so no problem not having TV upstairs. My husband loved the outdoor shower, he never did shower indoors! Jared was very responsive and communicated with us quickly. Thank you for a fabulous stay!

Private clean amazing villa stay!

Overall we had the BEST Vacation! The house is adorable and my teenage daughter loved to have her own mini condo downstairs. Very clean and enjoyable! Having a gate to the house made us feel more secure from the roaming Donkeys that are friendly! Plenty of space and had everything we needed to cook with! Grill was clean and amazing. Pool was a great treat after the day at the beach. The outdoor shower was perfect to get all the sand off! The road to the house is "off roading". Anyone that cant drive off road may have issues. My kids and I didnt mind it. It rained a few days and the roads get slippery. Be ready for a driving adventure...I didnt mind it as we had so much privacy at the house. My only suggestions would be to add more sleeping pillows for comfort. We each had one pillow and would have liked to have two. Also 2 beach chairs were broken and super rusty so we only had 2 to use. The windows wouldn't open in the house. We kept the A/C on when we were there but would have preferred the windows open to enjoy the breeze.

Cozy quiet comfort!

If you are looking for a safe, quiet neighborhood home at a good price from which to explore the island look no further! New Moon Escape offered my husband and I a comfortable sleep, near a great breakfast joint (Pickles in Paradise), and we swam or snorkeled all over the place. If you want high end this isn't it, but if you want cozy solitude book New Moon Escape!

Amazing hidden oasis

Honeymoon stay with the wife. Had a slight bit of miscommunication so we were a bit behind meeting with our host day of arrival but we got it sorted out. The house is a wonderful stay for couples or small families. Would definitely like to stay here again on future trips!

Great communication with property management

Unfortunately our trip fell apart within hours of boarding our plane and we never made it to St.John. That said, we were definitely interested in staying here and my communication with the property management team was exemplary and very professional. We hope to try again in the future.

New Moon Escape was amazing

My wife and I stayed here for a week. We were the second users since the hurricanes. The location is perfect for great access to all the beaches and hiking trails. The New Moon team was great to work with and we really enjoyed our time in the home. The pool was so nice to have at the end of a hot day. We really enjoyed our time there and will be back!

Happy Holidays

This kind of cottage, off by itself, is perfect for a couple like my husband and myself. We like the quiet and the greenery surrounding the house. The WiFi functions well and the kitchen has what we need. We enjoy the mini-pool for taking a little dip and I love the hammock for lounging and reading. One does need a good Jeep to navigate the short but very rocky, bumpy drive in from the main road, but if you drive slowly it is fine.
