About this house rental
NEW CENTRAL AIR CONDITIONING! Imagine waking up on Water Island and walking onto your deck looking over Honeymoon Beach and onto the Caribbean Sea. Stroll 5 minutes down to the beach and to one of the best beach bars in the Virgin Islands. Spend the day snorkeling with sea turtles, lounging under palms trees or jump into a game of beach tennis, volley ball or pickle ball. Rent a golf cart for your stay and explore our little 500 acre island and you will feel like you have just stepped back into time. Swing by the kid friendly crossings for a crushed ice, local art or grab a beer. Next head over to Heidi's for the best fish tacos in the USVI. Our cottage has an expansive Living Room with incredible views, open kitchen with newer gas stove & stainless steel fridge and great deck. Each Bedroom has a simple full bath w/ shower. 1st bedroom has queen memory foam mattress, in suite bath and new mini split AC. 2nd bedroom has a king memory foam mattress, adjacent full bath and new mini split AC. We highly recommend renting a golf cart online from Rachel’s Rentals. If your looking for luxury this is not the house for you; but if you’re ready to disappear into our tropical hideout then come be our guest.

Our stay was unforgettable from beginning to end. If you’re looking for a low-key, relaxing, snorkeling filled vacation look no further. Water island is the smallest of the four US Virgin Islands, yet no cruise ships port on the island making it the most tranquil paradise. Only golf carts so no traffic either. No better way to decompress! First and foremost the property manager, Sylvie was second to none-she made our stay extra memorable with her guided tours and art classes for the kiddos. It’s a one stop shop here!!

This location on Water Island is excellent: 5 minute walk to Honeymoon Beach, and easy walks to other, less crowded beaches on the island. Tortoises galore, amazing snorkeling, hummingbirds, and cool breezes most every evening.As other reviews have said, this is not a resort stay. If you adjust your expectations to align with a rustic Caribbean vibe, you will be delighted. The space is great for up to four people, and bedrooms are decent sized. Bathrooms are small. The kitchen was well supplied with a surprisingly good gas stove. Sporadic wifi made TV use somewhat problematic. Water is sourced from a cistern. Conservation is critical.The in ground pool is very serviceable, but again, think rustic Caribbean. It offers a cool, convenient dip. It is not a great pool for very young children.The focus of our stay was quiet relaxation, so we were very content with the slow pace of this area. If you are looking for nightlife and lots of distractions, this rental will seem boring. If, however, you want to enjoy nature and the beach in peach and quiet, you will love it here.One of the highlights of our stay was interacting with Sylvie, the warm and incredibly helpful property manager. She lives on site, and was available to answer questions, address any issues that arose, and even offer personal snorkel tours and an amazing art workshop. She is also a professional chef who can be hired. I can't speak highly enough about her.

Overall, we had a wonderful stay. The island is interesting with various wildlife and having limited cars is a really nice change. The locals are all very friendly. A great place to get away and just relax. As for the property, our first impression was not good. There is limited furniture. There were no towels, many pillows didn't have slips. The one bedroom had a broken down plastic bin for an end table. The electrical is unfinished in both bathrooms. There was a new microwave and toaster oven but the hot plate didn't work at all and the stove barely worked. We did eventually get two burners to light. The exterior is not well kept with various building materials and trash laying around. The isn't really a local property owner so if it tricky to get help if you need it. There isn't a generator on the property. We didn't have an issue with that but would have been a major problem. However, once we adjusted our expectations to being more like upscale camping, we got along just fine. There was plenty of room. There is AC in both bedrooms but not the main room which didn't really need it. We were on the beach during the heat of the day and there are nice island breezes. The deck has a beautiful view overlooking honeymoon beach. You should definitely rent a golf cart and beach chairs from Rachaels. You can walk to the beach but it is down a big incline. Also part of the fun in exploring the island.
