House was perfect for our stay. 4 masters and the 4th being the room that joins the twin beds for the 5th was perfect for the kids. They have all the gear available at the house you could need for your stay in St. John. Perfect place to stay for a multi family trip or 4 couples.
We LOVED the island manor. The location is amazing, the grounds are fantastic...we cooked big dinners, went in the pool, did morning yoga, and slept great. This place is a gem...5 stars, no notes
The hosts were amazing and guided us toward all activities and excursions to excellent people. The house is incredible ! Great location Great blueprint to allow privacy - all bedrooms were king size suites with attached bathroom and balconies ! House is perfectly equipped with everything you need. stellar !
We had the best week at Island Manor. Every detail was accounted for in this beautiful home and the owner was communicative, flexible and wonderful to work with. The team on the island, Jen and Joey were super helpful, responsive and a great resource on the island. This house was one of the better properties we have rented! Thanks for having us!
Such an incredible vacation to St John. This home had it all. The view, the amenities, the concierge and the great layout of the home with decks off each bedroom. We could not have asked for more. It was perfect
Been visiting St. John for 30 years. This place is one of the best. Well stocked, well appointed, quality everything, 5+ private decks, awesome landscaping, great views, great location. It was a great experience due to a great host as well!
The house was a great place for our family. It has all the amenities you need to stay and play on the island! From pool stuff, beach things, and the house was stocked with things we needed. The concierge Jen was extremely helpful with all our questions and needs!
So beautiful, new and clean! Jennifer and Jim were incredibly helpful. We rented this home for friends and family to stay during our wedding and they were an extension of the wedding planning process. Love Island Manor and I would definitely recommend staying there.
Island Manor Villa was wonderful. We were three families, total of 10 people, and size was perfect. Driveway comfortably fit three vehicles. The house is stocked ... you need, it has it. It was clean, well decorated and Jen was fabulous. It was simply a joy to be staying there. Easy to get to, close to restaurants, shopping and groceries. We would gladly stay here again!
Great stay at Estate Chocolate Hole. Recently remodeled with great set up for a large group. Owner Jim and property manager Jen Doran were wonderful, attentive and helpful. Estate well stocked with all you might need to enjoy a beach vacation!
We had an incredible stay at Island Manor in St. John! The villa was thoughtfully stocked with everyday essentials, from kitchen utensils to beach gear, ensuring a seamless and enjoyable experience. The spacious rooms, each with a private bathroom and an ocean view, added to the comfort and luxury.
A special shoutout to Jen, the property manager/concierge extraordinaire, whose assistance went above and beyond. She helped us book babysitting and in-house massage services, making our vacation truly stress-free.
Island Manor is a gem of a villa, and we can't wait to create more cherished memories here. Highly recommend!
This is a stunning property and recently renovated villa. The architectural details, furniture and lighting choices, outside spaces and accessories make this an absolutely delightful, relaxing place to spend time. The neighborhood is quiet, the sound of the ocean is soothing and the sunrises are spectacular. We could not have been more satisfied.
We brought our parents to celebrate their 75th birthdays. The house was beyond our high expectations. It was so well appointed and had so much thought put into “what would guests need”. Property manager was so welcoming and kind. She truly made us feel at home. We will be back!
Our group of 7 was very happy with our stay here. The home itself was great...clean, well organized, well appointed, little wasted space. We also had much more ocean view than we expected. We knew going in that the house faced inland, so to have a nice ocean view from the upper levels of the house was a very pleasant surprise.
Communication leading up to the trip, during the trip and after was all very good and helpful. This home was particularly well stocked...kitchen and pantry items, snorkel gear if you need it, pickleball equipment, coolers...more of those things than at any house we have stayed at previously...and we have stayed at a lot of properties. This is a property we would stay at again for sure...highly recommend.
This was far and away the best rental experience I’ve had to date. Have done many vacation rental stays and this one tops them all. Not just the beauty of the home, or the location, but the house is stocked with everything you could possibly need and more. It was honestly quite mind blowing what all is provided at the home. Couldn’t see myself booking any other property on the next trip to STJ. Communication and checkin/checkout were painless and the home was plenty of space for 9 adults.
We were in St. John for a wedding for 9 days and we stayed at Island Manor. This was a trip for 5 couples of 40 year old's that were looking to get away from the cold and their kids and the house delivered in every way possible. Right from the start the concierge on property- Jen was able to get us to the house, provide an amazing driver for the week (Chico), provide groceries and liquor and make dinner reservations for the week.
The level of service she provided was second to none of any concierge I've ever worked with and she made out trip extra special. The house had everything we needed and provided extra things as well (snorkels, sunscreen, beach gear). I was blown away by the house, location and views.
We're already looking to book again next year.
This a fantastic property that has been revitalized by the current owner. The amenities are excellent. It is relatively secluded and the views include a salt pond with lush vegetation as well as Hart Bay. Downtown (Cruz Bay) is only 5-7 minutes away by car and all the great beaches are easily accessible (don't pass up a trip to Francis Bay). This is a great property for a large family gathering that gives you convenient access to all of the activities St. John's has to offer (SCUBA, boating, beach, dining). The property manager is on point and responsive to any questions or concerns. Book with confidence. You won't be disappointed.
What can I say about this gorgeous modern fully equipped villa! The pictures do not do it justice! From the moment we booked the owner was in touch with us and answered all of my questions. He also had us in touch with the house manager Jennifer. She was absolutely wonderful, from helping with ferry info to car rental and restaurant recommendations. We were a party of 9 age range 9-78, and we all were comfortable. The rooms are very spacious and so clean. Overall, our stay was truly unforgettable. The property was beautiful, the amenities are top notch ( fully equipped with beach towels, chairs, pool toys and snorkel gear). I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing and luxurious getaway!!
From the moment we arrived at our St. John rental, we knew we were in for an extraordinary experience. The home is nestled in the lush hills with an amazing view of the bay and surrounding homes.
The house is clean, comfortable, and well equipped blending modern amenities with island charm. Each morning, we were greeted by the sunrise over a cup of coffee on the spacious deck overlooking the pool.
Inside, the attention to detail was evident in every corner. The bedrooms were spacious and comfortable offering a restful nights’ sleep after days filled with adventure. The kitchen and outdoor grill are fully equipped with everything we needed to whip up meals. The property was recently renovated and no detail was missed.
The property manager was incredibly welcoming, providing us with insider tips to explore the island. Jen’s recommendations helped us make the most of our stay, dining out at La Tapa, 1864, Morgans Mango and navigating boat charters.
Our time at this rental was incredible. It was a perfect blend of luxury, comfort, and natural beauty, creating memories that will last. We can’t wait to come back!
The Island Manor was a dream.
The house is stunning, so so pretty stocked with everything and then some for our stay. Many items were nicer than my items at home (crate and barrel dishes and towels). The beds were comfy, layout of the house was perfect for our families trip. It was my husband, three girls under 10, my in-laws and myself. We all had a separate room and balcony. The balcony off my room had a large extended porch which looked out to the ocean. The breeze and sunrise view was breathtaking and the perfect way to start each day.
The kitchen and everything needed and more. Jen the concierge helped us stock the fridge before arriving. Word of advice- if you can get a cooler purchase your groceries in St Thomas before coming over, supermarket prices are insane.
The pool area was perfect. Again the items stocked- cooler, tubes, snorkeling, umbrella and beach chairs made our trip flawless.
Island Manor is conveniently located near Cruz Bay where we ventured out for evening dinners, shopping and ice cream!
Overall island manor as well as Jen our Concerige made for an amazing trip to St. John. Definitely stay here!!
This house was perfect for our large crew and we absolutely loved our time at this property! We are a group of 2 families traveling together over school vacation week (4 adults and 5 teenagers). There are plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms that are beautifully renovated with comfortable beds. The entire home is new and is styled with lovely artwork/photographs and modern furniture (think Crate & Barrel). It was stocked with everything we needed for a relaxing week exploring St. John --beach towels, beach chairs, pool floats, snorkel gear, every pot and pan we wanted in the kitchen, laundry etc.
The outdoor space is just as incredible as the indoor space! There are outdoor covered patios from several sets of sliding doors, beautiful tiled patio spaces around the pool and lovely landscaping. The property manager and owner were very easy to work with, easy to reach and helpful before and during our stay.
We explored different beaches each day, then went for a late lunch or dinner in Cruz Bay. We cooked at the house a few nights using the grill and well-equipped kitchen.
The location was excellent for access to Cruz Bay and tons of amazing beaches! We loved snorkeling with turtles at Maho Bay and hiked in from Peace Hill to the secluded Dennis Bay. Trunk and Cinnamon Bay are stunning (wake up early to get parking). If you can't get parking, we enjoyed Hawksnest Beach. Our 1/2 day Snorkel trip on Kekoa was a highlight. With our 4WD Bronco and Jeep, we went all the way across the island to Hansen Bay to swim and snorkel, then had drinks/dinner and watched the sunset at the Windmill Bar on the way back. Worth the steep roads and hair-pin turns to see more of the island!
We would absolutely stay at this home again and loved our time on St. John!!!
