Our group had a fantastic stay at Terrapin Station! The villa was exceptionally clean, well-appointed, and had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing vacation.The swimming pool was a huge hit with everyone, especially after spending the day exploring St. John’s beautiful beaches. It was the perfect place to unwind in the evenings.The location was another major highlight. Being just outside Cruz Bay made it easy to get into town for shopping, dinners, and other activities while still enjoying the privacy and peaceful setting of the villa.A special thank you to the property manager, Katja, who was outstanding throughout our stay. She was incredibly helpful in arranging provisions before our arrival and was always responsive to any questions or requests we had. Her excellent communication made the entire experience smooth and stress-free.We would absolutely recommend Terrapin Station to anyone visiting St. John, especially families or larger groups of six to eight people. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again!

We had a group of 6 adults for the week. There was more than adequate space for our group. I was not aware when we booked that the two bedrooms on the lower level did not access the main living room and kitchen space. Our crew on the lower level sure did get our steps in for the week! Also, the drive way was incredibly steep. Those are two things I would have like to known. Katja, the manager, was accessible via cell phone/text messages, so the few things we needed fixed/repaired went straight to her. The house has an awesome view of the Caribbean Sea, the weather was perfect and we made most all of our meals in the well appointed kitchen.

Having come to St. John for 25 years, I can confidently say this may be my favorite villa so far. The design is beautiful and classic—gorgeous dark mahogany paired with white walls with a light touch of tasteful artwork with island vibes—and it features an amazing view through what feels like a seamless wall of windows facing the Caribbean and St Croix framed on the horizon.The spaces are very generous, and the kitchen was incredibly well-stocked. The A/C was excellent and I especially appreciated the solar power setup and Tesla backup batteries; given the current power situation on the island, it was a lifesaver, and we never missed a beat. The swimming pool is also large and well-maintained.To top it off, the hosts were incredibly gracious. Their communication was excellent from the moment we left home until the day we returned. We would absolutely stay here again and likely will—hopefully sooner rather than later.

The driveway is very steep and there is no outdoor lighting. Apparently it is going to be repaired and there is temporary lighting but nothing is working. Two outdoor showers with no hot water. One outdoor shower doesn’t have working lighting. The cleanliness was fair in my opinion. View is lovely. Pool is lovely. We found a dirty bathing suit bottom on the deck of the pool.
