Testimonials for Dos Palmas - Carolina (RT 108)

Simply put, Villa Dos Palmas is amazing. The villa is easy to access (a big plus in St. John), and is situated perfectly above all of the best restaurants in Coral Bay. The views out to the BVIs were incredible and we loved sitting on the deck in the morning with a cup of coffee. The house is kept in immaculate condition and the landscaping is beautiful. The pool and outdoor bar area provided a great place to relax at the end of the day. The villa is well-equipped with everything you will need for your vacation on St. John. Our group consisted of 6 adults and there was plenty of space for everyone. We are looking forward to returning to Dos Palmas!

I brought my family here for 1 week this past spring. The owner, friendly, and welcoming, met us at the ferry and led us back to the house on the hill. He even took us to a local restaurant, Skinny legs and showed us around a bit. I am not sure if that is customary, but it sure was nice! The roads to coral bay are curvy, and hilly, but in the end very worth the ride. Wear your seatbelt: they love to give out tickets for that! The house is clean, well equipped and comfortable. The view is amazing. All amenities that were promised were available and in working order. The beaches are a couple hilly miles away, but secluded, clean and easy to find. The hiking trails and views from them were great... hiked 5 of the 7 days we were there, and didn't cover half of what I wanted to see. There are a few places nearby that I really liked: Shipwreck landing: great food, friendly (island time) service- relax, have fun with it! Skinny's has a great Mahi Mahi Sandwich. And Happy Hour at Aqua Bistro, and their grouper fingers should not be missed. I heard sweet plantains and Miss Lucy's are great for authentic west indian dining. The donkey diner has great breakfast. And the Jolly Dog has some truly funny t-shirts (etc) so you never forget your vacation. I would rent this house again and again. Wait, we have stayed there 3 times. I hope you love it too!

We had the pleasure of spending a week in this property. We found the location very private but not isolated, with an outstanding view. The property was beautifully landscaped and well maintained. The pool, while small, certainly met our needs. The house was a very functional design with the living and sleeping accomodations isolated from one another. It was exceptionally clean, well equipped and comfortably furnished. While only seven miles from Cruz Bay the winding mountain road made it a half hour drive. The proximity to Coral Bay afforded terrific eating establishments and recreational opportunities without the crowds of Cruz Bay. The owner was nice, responsive and accomodating. It was an ideal place to spend a winter vacation away from the cold and snow of Maine.
