2 Bedroom Villa in Estate Pastory, St John

Forty yards from the backyard, through National Park land, is Caneel Hill Trail, which drops down to the secluded white sand beaches on the North Shore (Honeymoon Beach, Caneel Bay and Solomon Bay) in less than 45 minutes, and extends to the town of Cruz Bay with a half-hour hike in the other direction. A 1/4-mile hike brings you to the Caneel Hill Observation Platform, where you can see a 360-degree view of both the Caribbean and Atlantic as well as the entire Western half of St John. From Caneel Trailside Cottage’s doorstep you can literally hike through the forest to get everywhere you will need to be on the western half of St. John.
A lush garden surrounds the private brick patio that encloses a swimming pool with teak poolside chaises and a barbecue area. A wide shaded veranda for outdoor dining and relaxing adds great space to enjoy the breeze and idle away from it all. The veranda looks out over the southwest end of St John and offers expansive views of the Caribbean all the way to St. Croix.

Summary: Layout of the house was perfect - with private sleeping areas and bathrooms. Back deck was great for breakfast and to enjoy the outdoors in a tropical shower. Pool gave us a shady break from the beautiful sunny beaches. Steep driveway but close to beaches and restaurants.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My daughters and I had a fabulous stay at Caneel Trail Cottage. We are frequent visitors to St. John, dating back to the mid-70’s so we have watched it grow. We loved the location of the house because it’s close to town yet high up enough to enjoy the views. We hiked the trail, it’s not incredibly well marked but the extra distance wasn’t terrible. Overall we would recommend this house. The roosters are everywhere on the island so you can’t really escape the early wake up call

Summary: Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This home sits right off the Caneel Hill Hiking Trail in-between two different overlooks with beautiful views that are each 0.3 miles away (a steep, but shady hike). It's a short drive into Cruz Bay but note that the road & driveway leading to the house is very steep and requires 4WD. The house was clean, beds were comfortable & A/C in the bedrooms worked great! The LR does not have A/C & it got a little warm. It has a beautiful pool & view, but note that the view is pretty much what you see in the picture due to heavy vegetation. I enjoyed my mornings on the porch listening to the roosters & watching the iguanas climb in the trees. There is some noise from the industrial area down the hill, but it wasn't terrible.

Summary: Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Caneel Trailside Cottage was absolutely perfect for our family vacation to St John! The house was exactly what we needed - from the location close to Cruz Bay and the north shore beaches (but also an easy hop over to Coral Bay!) to the gorgeous views, to the games and amenities provided by the host. The trails right outside of the cottage led to stunning views and were great to hike. The pool was a perfect way to cool off after long days at the beach. We would highly recommend Caneel Trailside Cottage!! The whole staff at Catered To Vacation Homes were wonderful to work with and we can’t wait to stay with them again!
