Out of the way, quiet
Comfortable King Bed, beautiful view. Functional kitchen. Hard to find at first as GPS/Maps doesn't show it. Best car to rent is a 2 door jeep as parking at Mongoose Junction is easier with a shorter vehicle. Lot's of places to eat and snorkel. Check wardrobe for maps and brochures. .

The view was amazing! But as for the cottage is old and outdated. It’s in the mountains so definitely need to rent a truck to get around. The window in kitchen was broken, the sliding door screen and front screen were malfunctioning, my husband tried to fix them. No ventilation so if attempting to cook alarm (which is great) keeps beeping. The tv started working and half way through our trip didn’t work.

Perfect Getaway for Two (W & D)
Absolutely perfect! Cute, quiet, secure, safe place. Beautiful view of Fish Bay from the porch area off the bungalow. The sounds of birds, peepers/bugs, ocean, wind, and waves are just what we wanted to hear. It's within a short drive to the market, and not too far from Mongoose Junction, and the beaches. Oleg & Zlata stayed in touch, never intrusive - and answered any questions that came up. Kudos to their friend, Alena for checking in on us to make sure we were comfortable and settled. We didn't want to leave! We definitely want to book here again. 5 stars PLUS! I've been to STJ 3 times, and this was, by far, the best place I've stayed! See you again next Spring!!! Sending love!!!

Best experience with a rental ever!
Stayed in April and couldn’t be happier or more impressed with the cottage. First, they have a water filtration system, and we felt safe drinking the tap water, plenty hot and cold. Never lost power or internet. We only needed the gentle hum of the window unit at night. Surprising how comfortable the breezes through the screened windows made the cottage.The cottage is extraordinarily clean everywhere, even behind and under furniture and is laid out very well with a sitting area at the end of the bed and a big closet. The kitchen has quality pans and utensils. Oleg offered his propane outdoor grill, which I used. Nothing like grilling out in paradise! We cooked 3 meals and ate them on the bistro dining set on the porch/patio overlooking Fish Bay, best table on the island! The other side is a super comfy outdoor couch with a coffee table perfect for morning coffee while waiting for the sunrise over the mountain. The bathroom is roomy enough. Plenty of toilet paper, paper towels and trash bags were provided. The hot tub works and is amazing at night under the stars. Shaded from the afternoon sun, you won’t burn during a daytime dip. The road out to this slice of heaven is a challenge but the serenity is worth it. Quick trip to the store is just 10 minutes from Cruz Bay. It's worth twice the price, we will be back. Zlata and Oleg are very friendly and kind hosts. If you see a bird with a broken wing tapping on your window wanting a cracker, that's Loopy. Hope to see them again!

Cozy Cottage
Wonderful place to stay. View from back deck was beautiful, just as advertised by Vrbo. Beach accessories were very helpful with our beach adventures. Zlada and Oleg were very friendly and helpful with answering questions about where to snorkel. We enjoyed our stay!

Perfect stay
My husband and I came to STJ for the first time for the VIJamfest and this was a perfect little spot for us to stay for the week. It felt so far away from town but still close enough that we could run into Cruz Bay to grab food, groceries and drinks in a matter of minutes. We could also go straight (haha, matter of speaking of course with the uber curvy roads) north and be at The Windmill Bar for the music festival. Even driving out east to Rams Head for hiking and the beach seemed quick with all the beautiful views along the way. Zlata was a wonderful host and so helpful suggesting places to eat and the best beaches and hiking trails. All the little additional things at the cottage were so nice too, including bug deterant candles, sunscreen, toiletries, a cooler, beach chairs, towels and shopping bags. It was just the most beautiful view from the front porch also, I could talk about it all day and never do it justice. 10/10 We can't wait to come back!

Beautiful Home, Beautiful View, Wonderful Hosts
This was the perfect home away from home. As a single, solo female traveler, I felt comfortable and safe. I woke up to a beautiful sunrise every morning and the sounds of birds chirping. What a relaxing week on island.
