A fine property for a couple or small family who wants to experience the vibrant local culture and active lifestyle of St. John. The location is ideal - very close to town - ferry terminal, shopping, dining, and taxis are all just a short walk down a relatively easy hill. The apartment is immaculate - well equipped, comfortable, and relaxing overall. Great WIFI strength made it possible to keep up on work and book local attractions. The only (minor) surprises were the lack of consistent hot water in the shower - (not that you really need it in the VI) - and a rooster that nests outside the bathroom window would welcome you to each day at about 6 AM to remind you to get out early before the Caribbean sun gets to intense! Being in town, traffic on the hill could be loud at times, and you could hear music from downtown hot spots, but not to the point of being disturbing. However, if you are adverse to noise, this might not be the spot for you. On the up side, you simply could not ask for a finer view of the city, and the west facing patio provided daily sunsets that were simply incomparable - (best enjoyed inside due to mosquitos!). Fascinating to watch the bats swooping as the sun descends. It's not super close to beaches - the walk to honeymoon beach takes maybe 20-30 minutes over a small hill, or you can get in the water at the marina near the ferry terminal within 10 minutes. A very special spot, and a great place to settle in to the local culture and vibe.
