Hello, I was with a group of twelve (6 couples) who stayed in Villa St. John in November of 2004. It is a beautiful villa. The four bedrooms especially in the main villa are each equal and extremely nice. Let me know if you have any specific questions. Another villa I might suggest is Villa Sanctuary in Rendezvous Bay area. The views are absolutely breathtaking! The villa is very well maintained. I'd love to stay there again!

This has been on my wish list for years but the no-kid restriction keeps us away from it.

You mentioned Coyoba---I think that would be an excellent choice. Would also second Casa del Sol.

Peter Bay Gatehouse has a gorgeous view, but will be much, much smaller.

OK, I am confused - do you mean February of this year (3 weeks away???) if so, do you have a car rented. February is peak season, especially Presidents Day "week" so if you do not have one you will be severely restricted and renting a condo in Cruz Bay will probably be your only option. Let us know so we can help further.

Do check out Lagoon Pointe - brand new and right above the ocean and way under your budget as they are still having their introductory rates, but do know it is in Coral Bay not Cruz Bay.....

Try Villa Andara - brand new and seems like it may fit your needs. Is listed by VIVA.

Thanks for the input, we've decided on Bay Rum Breeze http://www.vrbo.com/331278 for 8 days Feb 25th-March 4th.

Have the villa and airfare booked. Plan to take care of a vehicle tomorrow. Should a vehicle be an issue 6 weeks out??? Hope not!

Yes it can be a huge problem so 100% start calling tomorrow. There are only so many rental cars available to rent on STJ and for peak season people book 6-8 months out but I have a good feeling that you will be fine - let us know. Good luck

By all means, BOOK THE JEEP NOW!!!! We were there in December and I waited until September to book our Jeeps, and I got real worried because I called 5 before I found one with availability and that was OFF SEASON!!! HAVE FUN!
