Fabulous find!
We loved our stay here. Henry was great. We caught a late ferry and he took care of getting the jeep for us. The house is perfect for 2 friends or 2 couples - 2 comfortable queen beds and 2 bathrooms. The property was clean and close to Cruz Bay. Gorgeous view and quiet neighborhood. This is a totally great place and we are so happy we found it.

Absolutely loved this place!
So relaxing. It is the perfect setup for 2 couples. The view is lovely. Town is very close if you need to run in. I will say the driveway is crazy but we had fun navigating it. Everything we needed in the house was there. Super responsive and answered any questions we had about the island. All in all, a wonderful place to stay.

About the host

Hosted by Henry Hinkel

Host profile image
Our California home had a beautiful view of the Pacific but our lives in the civilized world were corporate encrusted, freeway driven, and mall dominated. When a business opportunity arose in the year 2000, we took a leap of faith and traded our Catalina Island view for a view of St Croix and a less complicated not so 'civilized' life in the islands. This beautiful paradise called St. John is a wonderful place to be. We like to tell first time visitors to the island: "Not many people come to St. John, just once!" It's true.

Why they chose this property

This villa is literally built 'Up On The Rocks', actually, huge boulders. These boulders and rock cliffs that make up the property provide quite a unique back drop. The home was rebuilt to be attractive to guests that insist on nicely appointed and comfortable accommodations but are also budget conscious. "Up On The Rocks" is the ideal choice for the informed island visitors who prefer to spend their time and budget at the 35 beautiful beaches and on the pristine waters that make the island such a famous place, instead of, at the villa or resort pool.

What makes this property unique

The home, uniquely surrounded by huge boulders, is perched high above the bays commanding a spectacular panorama view. It is around the hill and away from the hustle bustle of the village of Cruz Bay but conveniently located a 3 minute drive or 15 minute walk, to town. Total renovation recently completed. Everything, inside and out, awaits your arrival, in great condition!
