“A Beautiful House In a Beautiful Place!!” Beit Hawa was a beautiful place to be! The views were great, and the house was elegant, casual, comfortable, and well-equipped. It was a special and relaxing place to come back to after a day at the beach, or just to hang out all day. It couldn't have been nicer! The folks at Catered To were also great...they made everything easy, from greeting us at the ferry to providing information and advice. We can't wait to go back!!

“Great House and Setting” I agree with every positive comment made by others. This was our second year of staying at Reef Bay. There were 6 of us, including four teenage girls. There is so much living space! The design is remarkable. Our days were full: from hiking to the petroglyphs, swimming at the nearby beach (quietest scenic beach that you'll ever see), and sampling the island's beautiful north shore beaches. The house is a nature lovers dream, looking over the National Park. The owner and caretaker were always quick to answer any questions I had leading up to our visit. After arriving, we never needed help because we had no problems!

“Spectacular View and Wonderful Hospitality!” We just returned from a wonderful 8-day stay in the White Seagull, at "Just For Two" on St. John. This was a return trip for us, having stayed there, last May, as well. We rarely return to the same location, preferring to seek new adventures. This was a rare exception and a testimony to the wonder of this place - both St. John and Jacqueline's hospitality. The room is wonderfully decorated and comfortable, with 270 degree views of the Caribbean. We overlook Great Cruz Bay and Chocolate Hole from our windows, with views of St. Thomas from the Sky Lounge. It's amazing to wake to the early sunrise and see the ocean view, by simply sitting up in the bed. We took wonderful photos of the sunsets from the rooftop Sky Lounge and our location near the top of a mountain, overlooking the island. Jacqueline readily gave us access to her private patio, as well, providing wonderful views of Great Cruz Bay and relaxing surroundings to talk or simply play cards, in paradise! The room is well decorated with antiques and personal items. There was good Wi-Fi access and a TV with limited channels, but we rarely used them. A fireplace was available, but we can't imagine using it, except in the dead of "winter"! The room offers a small kitchenette, suitable for simple breakfasts or lunch preparation. There is access to a grill in the courtyard, as well. However, we mostly enjoyed the wonderful food at all the restaurants on the island. You definitely need to rent a car and we have had great experience with Courtesy Rental. The roads are steep, somewhat narrow and you get the challenge of driving on the left side. It's a challenge, but quickly becomes comfortable. The roads Just For Two are steep, but enjoyable. There is a back way that allows a "less steep" option, if it is rainy. Next year is our 25th anniversary and we are planning to return, yet again. It's hard to argue with perfection - especially for a milestone date.

“Close to Heaven at Mystic Ridge!” What a wonderful place to vacation -- easy to get to and parking is much easier than I have previously experienced on St. John. Views are breathtaking and vary from day to day and from day to night. Sort of in the middle of St. John which makes accessing all beaches so easy. Accommodations were extremely comfortable and way more than adequate. Cooking-friendly kitchen and great outdoor and indoor dining choices. Restaurants are easy to reach at Cruz Bay or Coral Bay. Would definitely consider staying there again! Island Getaways, Inc. is very service oriented. Go and enjoy!

“Fabulous Villa in Perfect Location” 4 families shared Casa Coram Deo for one week back in March. My requirements for a Villa were that it be a short drive to town, close to the Westin (friends staying there), and be very comfortable for 4 families; Each family had one teenage kid. This villa not only hit the mark, it surpassed it. We wanted to be close to town because even though we love to cook and had a couple of great dinners we prepared in the amazing kitchen (and fantastic outdoor grill), we like to eat out when on vacation. Plus the teenagers wanted to hit the town in the evenings and didn't want to worry about a long drive back late at night. Our friends could walk over from the Westin easily in a couple of minutes, we booked our charters and fishing trips with the Westin and just walked over to catch the boat without having to drive. Super convenient. Even though we rented a car, we used the Westin cabs a few times for the kids and all we did was call over there and asked for a cab when needed; they were at our Villa in 5 minutes. The layout is perfect for 4 families, with a 5th bedroom for the kids. Each bedroom is luxurious with very comfortable King beds, huge master bathrooms, huge showers (water pressure was very low but who cares really), walk-in closets, and lots of privacy because each bedroom has a corner of the house with no connecting walls. And each of the 4 bedrooms has a full view of the pool area/ocean (2 upstairs, 2 downstairs) and a walk out glass door. The kids room is in the center with no pool view or ocean view which was fine with us. The kitchen is equipped incredibly well, the open layout with the kitchen and living/dining room all one huge room with very high ceilings made for a great party room. Just perfect. We thought this Villa offered the perfect combination of luxury, convenience, and great location (if you want to be close to Cruz Bay). And working with Catered To, the rental company, was a true pleasure - great people over there.

“Fantabulous!!!” Catered To Vacations was very helpful during the planning stages of our "all girl vacation"!They kept us informed,answered all our many questions, and sent us great information about St John. They handled our rental car and upon arrival Michele met us as promised and guided us to our Villa.I will definately use their services again! We'll be back! Sunset Beach Villa lives up to it's name, the sunsets were beautiful!We loved our villa especially the pool area.The views were great and you could snorkle and swim as long as you had good water shoes!Watch the Bose sound system it is easy to play your music too loud, but a good way to meet your neighbors:)I would rent this Villa again! It is a perfect distance from Cruz Bay!Close enough for taxi service and not a bad drive for rookies! Blue Sky Provision Co. (Shanna Dickerson) did a great job provisioning our villa with food and beverage so we did not have to shop upon arrival. Made for a great birthday party! I would definately rate this whole vacation as wonderful!

“Even better than expected” This villa was what I expected, except even more amazing. To begin with it is in excellent shape, and was remarkably clean on our arrival, and I am someone who is critical about those things in particular. The garage doors make it so that no matter where you are in the house you feel like you're outside. I don't think there was one thing that we looked for an couldn't find. The view is just remarkable. There are a couple of villas that are being constructed, but the construction noise is an occasional saw, or hammer, or some distant music, nothing that was at all disturbing. We ate mostly in Coral Bay because of proximity, although the drive to Cruz Bay was only about 30 minutes, so really not that bad on a lazy vacation. I am the ultimate mosquito magnet, and yes there were mosquitos, but nothing more than I expected. I was extremely pleased to find that all of the screens are in perfect shape, which I was a little nervous about. We left the screen to the courtyard closed all the time which I think helped, and also closed all the screens around dusk and dawn. It was really an incredible house. I can't imagine staying anywhere else on a return trip to St. John.

“Paradise” La Tete Rouge was a wonderful place to stay! We had a group of 7 adults and there was plenty of room for everyone to have their own space. The outdoor space is amazing. The pictures are accurate of the house (no trick photography), and I think it even looks better in person. I can't wait to stay there again. Any minor issues with the house Catered To addressed immediately and they were great to work with.

“Enjoy oustanding views from this totally secluded villa” My wife and I spent a week at Cinnamon Stones and we couldn't have been more pleased. The views are some of the best you can enjoy anywhere and you're totally secluded from anyone else. The modest-sized pool is on the lower level which, while not ideal, is necessary due to the slope the house is built upon, and only adds to the privacy. Lush foliage is well-maintained. The kitchen is outstanding, ideal for amateur chefs who enjoy staying in and preparing gourmet meals, which we do. It is well-stocked with many high-end items. If you like going out for dinner every night this place probably isn't for you since the road leading to the highway from the house can be challenging in the dark, moreso if it's raining. My advice, stay in and enjoy what you're paying for. My wife and I walked for exercise every morning, and due to the terrain you can get a great workout! Nice outdoor shower at the pool and the master bathroom shower is amazing, you'll have to see for yourself. No a/C in the villa may scare away some but it honestly was never an issue the entire week we were there (in June!!), great breezes and plenty of ceiling fans. Tourists from the northeast us probably can't imagine staying at a villa with no a/C since they sweat profusely above 60 degrees. This place is a gem, bring your lover and get busy!

“Home away from home...but with a view!” I don't know where to begin. This was our first, but definitely not our last, visit to Villa adagio. We have rented several homes on St. John over the past years and they all pale in comparison. Let's start with the pool in the middle of the great room. It's amazing! There is no smell from the chlorine which was my initial concern. It is not heated, which is great, because who needs a heated pool in St. John and the view cannot be beat. Speaking of the view, you will have prime seats for sunset...get your cameras ready. Next, let's talk about the outdoor showers in 2 of the 3 bathrooms. I loved this. What an indulgence coming from a rough winter in the Northeast! Third, the furnishings are lovley. It is very homey and there are so many places both inside and outside to relax with a cocktail and enjoy the surroundings. If you want a change of scenery from the stunning views of the water, head to the front yard which has a lovely lawn and garden. Lastly, if convenience is important to you, then you will be happy here. It is 10 minutes to Cruz Bay and within 5 minutes of the car ferry and grocery store. I have already checked availability for this fall. Don't hesitate...reserve it now!

“outstanding” outstanding villa, great views. easy walk down the hill to downtown, $3 cab ride per person back from downtown. villa well appointed with all the comforts, nice pool. property management team was very responsive to any issue, outstanding support.

“Spectacular!” Sharing a week with our family to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary in St John, we wanted everything to be special and unforgettable. Hakuna Matata provided us with incredible beauty, elegance and style which went even beyond our hopes and expectations. Nothing was left to chance nor to be desired in every respect. It is an exquisite paradise and certainly gave each of us, ages 6yr.-70yr., a most memorable and magical experience.

“View to die for” Exceeded all of our expectations. We couldn't be critical of one thing. When we return to St J, this will be our home once again.

“Fabulous property !!” This was our 3rd stay at Latitude - it is beautifully decorated with a spectacular view - and perfectly designed to give three couples a lot of privacy. The house has everything you need for a day at the beach - coolers, chairs, beach bags and beach towels. Great kitchen. The house is located in a very nice neighborhood and just minutes from Cruz Bay. We had a couple of minor maintenance issues - property management staff was there within 15 minutes after we called them. We plan to visit Latitude again next year.

“Absolutely marvelous!!!” Can't say enough good things about Island Sun. It is the quintessential Caribbean vacation home. Catered To goes the extra mile to ensure a positive experience...and the owners of Island Sun have a one-of-a-kind home that is beyond compare!!!

“very nice” We had a great time at island rider with our family. The house is very clean and modern, and the views are spectacular. The only issue I would say is the air conditioning. In the master bedroom it doesn't get much cooler then the mid 70's which makes it hard to sleep, I was there 2 years prior and it was the same issue. Also the main living area has no ac which wasn't horrible because we went in the winter, but I can not imagine what it would be like once the weather gets warmer. Once you start cooking and people are in there- the ocean breeze does very little to cool it down. One other issue was the water in the showers it was luke warm at best and would not get any hotter. I give it 4 stars- if they worked out these issues- especially the aC it would be 5 stars, but having to deal with the heat indoors takes away the 5th star which is reserved for those properties that don't try to save money on air conditioning. Overall- it is a great place and very beautiful- the management company is very accommodating and they keep the house very well.

“Incredible, Gorgeous View!” Our family stayed at Drake's View June 13th - July 1st, 2013. We needed a villa with 4 bedrooms. It was the "view" from Drake's View that won it over! Wow, what an incredible, gorgeous view of Coral Bay & the Bvi's! The Kit, LR & DR areas are all on the upper level & flow into each other so you always feel a part of what's going on & with several seating areas, you can have your space too! There are 3 bdrms on the lower level in the main house & a private 1 bdrm cottage. All are equal with a/C & kg beds with 1 in the main house having the option to be made into twins. Entry to 1 of the bedrooms in the main house is off the porch so you have to walk outside to get to it. The kit was well equipped & used & so was the BBQ grill. We ate about ½ our meals at the villa while enjoying the view! We used the pool & hot tub just about every day after coming back from the beach. The pool gets good sun until mid-day & is larger than most. It has a gradual slope to deep end & has a built-in bench all along the length of the pool. You can sit there or in the hot tub & enjoy a nice view. The villa has plenty of outdoor seating space, sun & shade, to gather as a group or find a quiet space to yourself! Even though you could see a couple villas on other hillsides, they were far enough away & situated to where we felt complete privacy! In the evenings we enjoyed listening to music on the stereo...speakers worked great...while playing Scrabble & card games. The villa only has 1 TV...no big deal because we don't typically watch TV. The large capacity W/D are on the lower level & conveniently located near the pool's ½ bath for wet suits & towels & near the bdrms. They were used often during our 18 night stay & worked great! We loved Drake's View & the Bordeaux Mtn location...the view, close to Maho Bay & close to our family's favorite Coral Bay restaurant...Shipwreck Landing!

“Birthday Surprise” I booked this Villa as part of a birthday surprise for my husband and he is still talking about the trip and asking when we can return to this Villa. We loved the separate rooms as it provided that private space when you needed it and the big living area when we all came together. Of course, the iguanas made us feel right at home!

“Want for nothing -- and I mean nothing!” From the incredibly spacious and luxurious suites to the world class swimming pool to the on-site massage therapy sanctuaries to the full on-site gym with sauna, steam and soaking tub to the Epicurean theater to the on-site fruit, vegetable and herb garden to the meeting facilities and beyond -- all served up astride one of the most amazing views on St. John -- it's not only possible to spend several weeks here without the need to leave the grounds, it's actually desirable. Still, see the parks and head downtown for some amazing cuisine just to round out the stay. And enjoy one of the best support staffs on the island. Well done, all!

“excellent architectural wonder great design” upscale wonderful villa extremely well designed for site, architectural wonder, excellent job, in conception and execution from one who studies and values good architecture. only comment, get wireless, since new devices MacBook air and Ipads, et. al, can only connect wirelessly and don't pull in, and wireless routers are the name of the game today, who wants to have to be in only one spot to go on line, it's so cheap anyway had I known I would have brought one

“Wonderful Views” The road up is a bit of a challenge but every time we return we've seen improvements (new paving in critical spots). We have stayed in other villas on Coral Bay and the roads to most have been similar (steep and spots of paving) it is a price of the less populated/more private Coral Bay, but worth it. Villa Ventosa is loaded with character and comfort. We enjoy the Villa and the amenities, and always want to return and do!
