Melvin our host was super accommodating. We had a conflict with our flight and he graciously extended our check out date. The breathtaking view is to die for. I think we may have had the most beautiful view on the whole island.
Villa Ithaca was beautiful, clean and close to all the places we visited in St. Thomas. The views were spectacular! We really enjoyed our stay there and we would come back again.
We had an awesome time in St Thomas and a big contributor to that was Melvin property. Everything was above our expectations and as described in the VRBO posting. The rental is spacious, bedroom with a bath and a California king bed, the kitchen has all the needed equipment to cook your meal, we also had access to the owner bbq. We absolutely enjoyed the views from the terraces where we spent most of our mornings. It was our first trip to St Thomas but certainly not the last, the island is absolutely beautiful. The rental offers a private parking on a gated property. We were really impressed with Melvin and his beautiful family, high quality people with no doubt.

Speechless view, clean, private and quiet place to stay! Thanks LeShawn for all your help and support!
We had a wonderful stay at Ithaca during Carnival time. It was close to the events and extremely comfortable. The host was very helpful and quick to respond with any questions. I will definitely be booking again!

This was an incredible property. The owners were amazing, the views were incredible. I cannot wait to come back. Keep in mind St. Thomas is very mountainous and you need to be a decent driver! The driveway is steep so make sure you are prepared for that.
Condo had everything we needed. It was perfect for our week long stay. Melvin was a great host! The views were absolutely gorgeous! We will definitely be back!
The views don't get any better. Melvin and Monique were outstanding. Top notch place I cant recommend enough.

Melvin & Monique were excellent hosts. They went above and beyond by showing us around the island, just an all around super nice couple. We have visited and stayed in many different places. This was unquestionably the best view we have ever stayed in. Sits high above Charlotte Amalie harbor where you can see all. Very clean and well kept. I would rate a 9. If they had a pool it would be a 10.5
Property and the condo are as shown in the pictures. Fantastic view of the harbor, surrounding islands from the veranda-Best on the island. The condo was exceptionally clean, bright, and fresh. Air conditioning worked perfectly. Windows open, beautiful mountain breezes. Easy access parking, outside condo door. Very relaxing. I would recommend to family and friends. Nice host. Must be a confident driver to drive on left side of road.
I would love to give a 5 star review and would have except that the air conditioner could not keep the condo cool enough for us, especially to comfortably sleep at night. Fortunately, the windows had screens so we were able to catch a bit of a breeze to help cool down. Melvin was wonderful to work with and the condo is very nice. Very comfortable bed and high end appliances in kitchen.
I had the most amazing experience at this residence. The property was absolutely gorgeous and the view was STUNNING. I was accommodated like royalty by my host. In fact this was the most beautiful and relaxing place I've ever stayed and the hospitality was impeccable. I will definitely revist this residence again in the near future. Thank you so much. B.

Fantastic stay in STT at this great centrally located unit. The views both from the unit and the driveway are some of the best you can get on the island. Melvin was a great host, easy to get a hold of and super helpful during our stay. Unfortunately we had some travel delays on our flights out to the island and missed our first day on the island. Melvin didn't charge us for the day we weren't there which is above and beyond what we expected because this was no fault to him or vrbo. Just weather back in the states causing flight issues. The unit was nice and big and a great location for traveling all over the island. We were pretty busy on our stay so it was nice to have a good central location and near the main island roads. It's also 5 minutes to magens bay which is our favorite beach so that's a big plus. We would definitely recommend staying here and even coming back for another visit!
Villa Ithaca is convenient because it is centrally located on St.Thomas. It is halfway between the airport and the Red Hook, east end of the island. You will need a car or cab to get to the apartment as the driveway is probably too steep for a scooter and this would be the only "negative" I can think of for the property. The space is big, with very high ceilings and a spacious sleeping room with its own bathroom. The kitchen and living area share a space but are efficiently separated by the kitchen's extended counter space. The apartment has everything you need to feel comfortable and is exceedingly clean, neat and organized. The view is spectacular of the harbor. It will only take you about 10-15 minutes to get into town without traffic jams and about the same amount of time to get to Magen's Bay beach or to Mountain Top. The pictures are accurate so what you see will not disappoint you. Looking forward to renting the same space or the apartment below the one we stayed in. Melvin is also very easy to reach, is very friendly and informative, and very accommodating. Do not hesitate to rent this space!
The property was just what we needed for our needs! It was cozy, bed comfortable and air conditioning met our needs. Just down the road from Maegan’s beach. The view was absolutely unbelievable. Sit on the bench and watch the sunset or dine outside at the beautiful patio table. This place was exactly as described in listing. It was great for us! Great host also! Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Serene tranquil paradise on the hill
Couldn’t ask for anything better. The location was easy access to east central and west parts of island. Close to major beaches. Was able to enjoy the view of the island and ships docking fir the day. Entire property and unit kept clean and well maintained.

Great location for a home base to explore from.
Centrally located, safe and secure. Place was clean and new. We had a minor issue with a ceiling fan and someone was out the next day to fix it. I would recommend.
