We much enjoyed the peaceful island life. Everything closes early, but the sunsets at Dinghy’s is a perfect ending to a quiet evening.

Beautiful home and beautiful location. That being said remember you are on a small island. We had a lot of issues with power going out and generator not working due to gas tanks being too small for unit. We had a lot of little hiccups mostly due to not being able to contact owner. Mostly seems to a communication issue between Lisa and her employees. All and all can’t go wrong with location, beautiful beaches and the locals are great. We will definitely be back to water island again soon!!!

Cool and clean. Well stocked

Bella Vita is exactly as described and pictured. Be aware it is a small studio, adjoined with a larger unit in the same home. The space was fine for me and my two kids. Very nicely and comfortably decorated with a comfy bed and futon, but small: a curtain for bathroom door and no bathroom sink. Communication with the host was, unfortunately, less than ideal. Our flight was delayed and I was afraid we would miss the last ferry so I called but got no response and VM was not set up. So I texted, but got no response. Also, the host did not email or otherwise reach out to let us know the door code in advance, or how important a golf cart rental would be. Fortunately, I had arranged to rent a golf cart anyway, and it was only through Beatrice at Rachel's Rentals (golf carts) that were we able to locate the unit. Then we had no way to get in, however, my son was able to guess the door code. Otherwise, we would not have been able to get inside the unit. Thank goodness Beatrice so kindly offered to drive us to the unit and call the host for us, because this is a remote location and there would have been no other option to return to St. Thomas or find another place to stay that night. Before we guessed the code, we were wondering if we would have to sleep upstairs in the other unclean, but unlocked, unit. Likewise, there were no instructions inside the unit to access the wifi, work the television (which we never could get to work), or work the air conditioner.
