Does anyone remember who rented a villa or cottage with a jeep included? It would have been fairly recent.

i rented just enough (google just enough st john) and the manager of the cottage offered a rental vehicle (it was 4wd but i don't remember what it was).
it was not included in the price if that's what you mean and we had to get trip insurance just in case anything happened (i was getting it anyway). the rental was a bit cheaper than the island agencies, in great condition, ac, radio, cd, etc.
the best part was that we didn't have to make that additonal stop at the rental agency. we got off the ferry, were met at slim man's parking lot with the keys to our car and off we went. at departure time, we met a person at cocoloba where-in they drove us back to the ferry in our vehicle and dropped us off. hassle free mon.

Yes Trevor who runs the activities booth in Mongoose Junction rents his cottage and includes his "island" jeep I believe. The cottage is called A Peaceful Cottage and Trevor can be found through his website - www.bestofusvi.com or at 1-800 655-7630 - personally I would ask about insurance on the jeep having experience with how the insurance works here

Yep, it was Trevor who I spoke with yesterday. PLEASE guys don't book him up before we can book a vacation. I was hoping for a review of the cottage and the jeep. He seemed like a really nice guy, on the phone.
PM me if you want!

So this was not the villa you are looking for ? - I thought it was as it is the only villa I have heard of that includes a jeep - I also think it would be difficult for insurance purposes to include one so please, please check what is covered should you be in an accident.

Oh, sorry, Pia! Yes, this is the place! I will look into the insurance issue before we book, which will be in a couple of weeks (have to wait for numbers to see what bonus will be LOL).
I was wondering if anyone knew the property...the owner? Safe?
I know that there's no view and we don't care. I know it's not fancy and don't care. I know there's a dog and cat on property and that's fine. I know that Trevor lives on property and don't care.
There's not much out there about this one, but I remember someone this Spring saying they were staying at a place with a jeep included, and hoped he'd pipe up.

OK, I was a little confused 
I do know Trevor and he is a very nice guy from what I know.
Good luck with the bonus
