Vakantieverhuur in Water Island

Great place to stay, it’s in a great area. You can see the cruise ships & watch sea planes land. One of the air conditioners went out & Erik was there in 15 minutes to fix it. I would definitely stay here again. Thanks Erik!

We had a wonderful stay at Ocean Nest West! Everything went smoothly, and the unit was exactly as described—clean, comfortable, and well-appointed. A special thank you to Paris for his patience as we got a bit turned around on the way to check-in. (Tip for future guests: Google Maps works best for GPS—Waze led us astray.) We really appreciated the clear and consistent communication with the host throughout our stay. The kitchen was thoughtfully stocked with essentials (i.e. pots, pans etc..) for cooking, and the chilled bottles of water in the fridge were a much appreciated touch on our first day. The beautiful view from the unit was the cherry on top! Highly recommend this place for a relaxing and well-managed stay.

We loved EVERY minute of our stay here. Out your back door each morning you see a fantastic SUNRISE & out of the front balcony are breathtaking SUNSETS. Relaxing, safe, and very accommodating. They have the little things that you may have forgotten COVERED. We will be back…..Thank you for the great vacation!!!

Water Island was absolutely beautiful! Our stay was amazing—even when we ran into island-related issues like a power outage, both Isla and Erin were quick to jump in and get everything up and running again, even over Easter weekend! This was our first time visiting the islands for my birthday trip, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. The location was stunning, with the best views! Haze was an angel—such a sweet boy who kept us company while we missed our own cats. We’ve already decided to make this a yearly tradition and plan to stay at Isla’s for many years to come. We absolutely loved this place—it was the perfect getaway!

Gigi is an amazing host! She helped us navigate Water Island and St. Thomas through her helpful recommendations. She greeted us at the Water Island Ferry dock and helped us get settled in. She was there whenever we needed anything. Gigi’s home is in a beautiful location and is well equipped with whatever you need. She has lots of beach essentials and floats for the pool. The space is attached to Gigi’s primary residence, however, we’d never know anyone was there. It was super quiet with really thick walls. Getting to/from Water Island is a breeze! It’s 10 minutes on a ferry that’s always on time. We loved seeing tortoises, hermit crabs and Gigi’s sweet ldog Coco at the house. At the beach, we loved seeing the sea turtles in the calm water! We also did a sailing trip to swim with sea turtles. The Gigi-recommended captain was AMAZING. He let our daughter drive the boat as an early birthday present. She’s been telling everyone about it! Highly recommend! Can’t thank Gigi enough!

Great team! Amazing view of the ocean. Will definitely come back

Before arrival, Evanton answered my questions and prepared me for arrival. Once I showed up, he greeted me and welcomed me to the island and instructed me of the check in process which was simple and easy. He offered all contact info and said he was available anytime. Over the past week, I would see Evanton in passing and he was always interested in how my day went and how I’m loving the area. He even offered his connections if I chose to stay on the island and needed employment. The price was great and the views were stunning. The remote location means a car is a necessity but also that the area is peaceful and calm. Would absolutely stay here again.

Great location. Friendly and safe. Easy walk about one mile to town and several nice restaurants within a few blocks. Great view of town harbor and hills. Plenty of space. Basic kitchen needs. If you have mobility issues this is not for you. Lots of steps and no railing.

We had a wonderful time at Larik’s place in Frenchtown! We ate almost exclusively at restaurants in Frenchtown and really enjoyed the flavor of the neighborhood, which frequently included the sounds of an evening baseball game. The view of the harbor was gorgeous and the many large windows made you feel a part of it wherever you were in the apartment. Perched on the hillside, we had many close neighbors, but the angle of the property made it very private at the same time. You do hear the sounds of Charlotte Amalie around you, but that is to be expected when staying in town. We did not rent a car and that worked fine for us. Everything we needed was available within a half mile walk or so and we used the Safari Bus ($2 rides) and an occasional taxi to get to the beaches. And, the ferry to St John was a short walk away! All-n-all, a great vacation! Thanks Larik!
