     Turtle's Nest is top notch! We HIGHLY recommend it. It was immaculate. The location is great with a totally private and quiet setting. The villa is beautifully decorated and extremely comfortable inside and out. The bed was super comfy, the kitchen was very well stocked with everything we needed, the shower had great water pressure and we really enjoyed the beach chairs, noodle, coolers and beach bags. The living room sofa was very comfortable for relaxing at the end of our exciting day at the gorgeous beaches and exploring the island. The porch furniture was also extremely comfortable and we loved being able to dine outside on the beautiful table and chair set while watching the birds. Tammy & staff were wonderful and always quick to respond to questions. We loved our first trip to St. John and hope to return to Turtle's Nest again someday. Thank you to Tammy and staff for making our 25th wedding anniversary trip so special and memorable.

    Excellent Stay!

    My husband and I visit St John twice a year and were delighted to stumble on this little gem. Turtle's Nest is the perfect spot for a couple! Very clean, well outfitted and excellent shower. We were impressed with the extra touches and attention to detail. We also really enjoyed all the sugar birds who came to visit. We would definitely rent here again and would highly recommend it to anyone we know. You can't go wrong here!!

    Turtle's Nest is very beautiful and well-equipped. The decor is quite tasteful. The porch is spectacular -- we spent as much time as possible there! Excellent choice for those who do not want to stay "downtown" in Cruz Bay.  ~Amy K.~

    Perfect location and view

    The location was perfect, secluded yet close to everything. The view was amazing. Drew was extremely accommodating and responsive to our needs. We highly recommend it!

     There are not enough stars to say how happy we were staying at this place. The house is a perfect spot for a couple's getaway on St. John. We just loved it from the time Katja checked us in to when we had to leave. The house has everything you need to make you feel at home. It was so comfortable, peaceful and relaxing. We look forward to our next stay there.

    It's just the right size and filled with all the amenities we could use. One of the reasons it is so enjoyable is everything we need is already here - no hunting or running out to purchase items. The sensational view both inspires and relaxes at the same time. If I didn't leave the deck I would spend my entire time just staring out and sleeping outside.

    Close to Cruz Bay, Wonderful views!

    We stayed at turtles nest for 7 nights and had a blast! Normally, we stay on Coral Bay side and decided to change it up this year. So happy we did. It’s close to everything but yet the property is very private. The views from back porch were amazing. We absolutely loved it and WILL be back!

    Turtle’s Nest Villa is simply amazing! A quiet villa with a gorgeous view and all the amenities you would ever need for your stay on St. John. A perfect location for quiet evenings in or close enough to town to explore and enjoy local restaurants, bars, and shops. Turtle’s Nest is a short drive to some of the most beautiful beaches on the island! We enjoyed a new beach each day and was never disappointed! I don’t think you could find better people to work with when planning your next vacation. Tammy, Craig, and their associates go above and beyond to make your stay as enjoyable as you would hope for. I fell in love with this cottage and the island. I would highly recommend Turtle’s Nest to anyone looking for an unforgettable vacation!

    Nice place on St. John. Private and safe. Within 25 minutes of most the island. Would recommend! ~Charles C. and Sydney~
     

     Great little villa perfect for a couple's vacation only 15 minutes from Cruz Bay This newer one bedroom/one bath villa was perfect for my wife and I. Great views of the surrounding hills and Fish Bay. Kitchen has everything needed to prepare meals - all you need to do is provide the food. We enjoyed the views from the balcony while having coffee and breakfast each day. Concierge provided snorkel gear for us for the week as a decent rental rate and was always easily available via text for restaurant recommendations and any other questions we had. It's only 15 minutes from downtown Cruz Bay which was really nice. We had an excellent stay here and would highly recommend it for a couples get-away!

     Turtle’s Nest ROCKS!! 

     We had an amazing time at the Nest! QUIET…SOlITUDE…..REFRESHING!  St. John is a very special place. We snorkeled at four different beaches, had lunch or dinner at six different restaurants, had rum in a wide variety of drinks, all good…all great! Went on an amazing all day cruise with Stormy Pirates. We hope someday we will go back….there are still several beaches we need to visit!

    Lovely quiet home with great views!


    Our family stayed at this lovely home over spring break 2019. The house was easy to find, clean, and ready for us to stay at. It's in a very quiet part of the island with really nice views. They had plenty of water, a washer/dryer, and some beach stuff we could borrow.

    In a word . . . Wonderful!


    We truly enjoyed our 7 night stay at the Turtle's Nest! It is absolutely the perfect size for two! The house was spotless, the furnishing nice, the kitchen well equipped - we didn't lack for anything! The stunning view from the deck was our favorite spot for morning coffee and an evening bottle of wine. The location is peaceful and private, yet an easy drive into town.

    Drew of St. John Concierge and Tori were very gracious hosts who helped with setting up a fun day trip to JVD and snorkel gear for our use during the week. Tori even offered to ship a few souvenirs home for us! We love St John and are already planning next year's trip! Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us!!!

     Dreams really do come true!

    We fell in love with St John many years ago when we discovered this amazing island while on a cruise ship.  From the moment we stepped foot off of the ferry in Cruz Bay we knew we wanted to make St John our home. After many years of hard work and planning our dreams became a reality when we purchased Turtle’s Nest in our favorite neighborhood of Fish Bay!  The original name of the villa was Sun Splashed Cottage, but we wanted to name it something that signified who we are and why we love the island so much.  I have always loved  sea turtles for their beauty, grace and meaning. They are wise, grounded, determined, balanced, strong and peaceful.  All things you can accomplish while on St John and how we try to live our lives each day.   We are so excited to be able to share our little dream with you!

    Message us here or email at turtlesnestvilla@gmail.com. 

    Tammy and Craig live near State College, PA with their dog Abby.  They are avid Penn State fans and love spending time with family and friends when they aren't on the island.  They have a daughter Katlyn and beautiful granddaughter Bella.
