We spent the week of spring break in St John at the Starlit Escape. We could not have been happier with our choice to rent the house! It had EVERYTHING that we needed to have a nice relaxing week and it really felt like our home away from home. We spent many nights chillin' on the patio enjoying the cool Caribbean breezes and taking full advantage of the grill and kitchen. After spending the day at the beach, it was nice to come home and take a dip in the pool. If you are looking for a quiet, secluded location this is your place! It is about a half hour drive from the ferry docking station which is where most of the shops and restaurants are located. We didn't mind this one bit since there is a local market just around the corner from the house and a handful of places to eat nearby. You can be to any one of the amazing beaches on St John within just a few minute drive (note that practically anywhere you stay on the island you will have to drive to a beach since there are not any massive resorts along them).

Jared was very helpful in making sure we had everything that we needed and to make our stay the best it could possibly be. The house was spotless and furnished quite nicely. It was the perfect spot to spend a week with my mom and sister catching up on life. We will definitely stay here again the next time we visit St John.

We stayed at the Starlit Escape for 2 weeks in April 2009. The villa was well equipped and absolutley spotless!! The happy hour tower was a fun and secenic treat to be enjoyed by adults and children!! The pool was great for cooling down and relaxing and the hammocks were the perfect touch. Jared and Angie are very pleasant and hospitable, they went the extra mile for us!! They are knowledgeable about the Island and can give great guidance on what to do and where to eat, do not miss ZoZo's - it is by far the best restaurant on the Island and in fact one of the best meals my family has ever had!! There are many great places to eat in Coral Bay close by the villa, such as The Shipwreck Lounge (very fresh fish), Sweet Plantains, Miss Lucy's and The Donkey Diner for Breakfast. It was nice knowing we had Jared and Angie within reach for any questions or advice we needed. My family agrees that we would retrun to St. John again and return to the Starlit Escape Villa!!

My husband and I just returned from our first trip to St John. It was the most beautiful place we've been. We stayed at the Starlit Escape Villa. It was very clean, had everything we needed, and even a nice guest basket with wine. Our hosts, Brad and Carrie were wonderful and gave us tips and advice about the island. It even had a pool, which we ended up using everyday. It was very nice to enjoy that, after a long hot sandy day at the beach. We visited a different beach everyday. I don't even know which was our favorite, they were all so wonderful. The snorkling was a new experience for us, and we enjoyed that immensely. The Paradise Cafe in Wharfside village serves the biggest, best, breakfast burritoes!!! We each had one and didn't have to eat until dinner! They have the best values around. I also enjoyed visiting The Wild Thyme Boutique (next to the Lime Inn). This store is well worth a visit. I bought a dress and earrings. The owner, Marijean, has so many pretty things in her store and is very helpful and nice. We can't wait to go back!!!!

The review from Apirl 2004 from Nebraska on this villa says it all.
We stayed at Starlit Escape for 2 weeks during Christmas and New Years 2003-04. We had a family group of 6 adults and one teenager. The house had everything you could need and is comfortable and clean. The location is terrific for those who want to get away from it all. We snorkeled everyday at a different deserted beach on the eastern end of the island. The owners were gracious and helpful. We hope to go back again and we highly recommend this villa.
