St. John Privateer Bay Hotels

"Exactly as advertised. Beautiful location. The pool was an extra bonus. Would definitely go there again!"

"Truly an amazing experience staying here! Such a peaceful part of St. John with the best access to snorkeling off the private beach and close to Hansen Bay. The views from the house were stunning and serene. If we ever have the opportunity to travel back to the island this is exactly where we’d want to stay! Appreciated the beach chairs, towels and coolers that were available for our use for beach hopping."

"The rooms are nice but it needs air conditioning or some way to close the balcony because bugs were coming in other than that everything else is good "

"The home was beautiful & clean. Breathtaking views from all the porches & rooftop. Beautiful gardens & artwork inside & out. Emily was available to help with questions or anything we needed during our stay."

"Very nice kitchen and bedrooms. The driveway was interesting, but the view was fabulous. You are not far from the grocery stores in Coral Bay. Hanson beach on the east end is not far, and Salt Pond just beyond Coral Bay is not far. The only draw back to the house were the goats and the bed mattresses which needed to be replaced. We had a great stay and Paul was a great host."

"The Host was very responsive to our needs. He kept the generator running with the several day power outage the whole island experienced. We appreciated how much effort he put in to make sure our AC kept running so we could sleep at night. The only bummer was that the hot tub did not work for our stay. We would stay here again. "

"My second stay at Pura Vida was much like the first, fantastic. Friendly, responsive and helpful staff. Good view, nice decks and stocked with everything needed for preparing meals and going to the beach. Working generator and extra tank in case power went out, in order to run water pump and power electronics or refrigerator. I'll be back."

"This was my first time staying on the coral Bay side of the island. It is absolutely wonderful on that side of the island. The house worked out great for our work trip. I think my only complaint is the master bathroom toilet and maybe some of the screens need to be repaired. Kitchen with well stocked. Overall, a wonderful experience."

"Excellent property, location and views, Definitely recommend a 4 wheel drive for the island,"
