“The place to stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 March 2011

This was our first time to St John so i can't really say what other places are like, but Estate Lindholm is thoroughly enjoyable. It is comfortably situated with great views and the owner and staff make it warm and relaxed-- they don't seem to get tired at all of giving advice. They are also truly helpful-- you can borrow beach chairs and even a picnic thermos for the beach. The kitchen is always open-- so if you need something to drink-- you can grab it and write down what you took (its on the honor system).

The place was nearly spotless, which is something in a wet tropical environment and the garden is beautiful.

It is a place that is uphill from the town so if you want to walk-- it is a hike back, or taxi unless you rent. However it is also situated a pleasant hike from some of the best beaches.

Yes- the breakfast part is not exactly exciting (cereal, toast etc), but in the end we didn't really come to St John for the breakfast, and anything more and you might be too full to get going.

Would definitely recommend renting for part of the time to explore the beaches-- Maho was our favorite.

“Loved Estate Lindholm!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 March 2011

Great place!! So beautiful and quiet. Lauren is so accomodating and friendly. Loved her tips of things to do in St. John. Really laid back atmosphere. Not "resorty" at all, and that's what we were looking for. We plan on going back next year as a matter of fact. Estate Lindholm has the best sunsets on the island. Just enjoy from the pool or your balcony with a chilled glass of Proseco!!

“Best Place to stay in St John!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 February 2011

While we did not like the feel of St John in the low-season (Oct), Estate Lindholm was a great find and we had a wonderful stay. If you go to St John, stay here! Great view, good price, intimate view, and great advice on where to snorkel!

“Paradise”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2011

My husband and I just returned from 5 nights at Estate Lindholm. All week we hoped we could stay longer and be delayed due to snow at home, but no such luck - we had to return home! Could have stayed here for a long time and been very happy.

Beautiful property, well maintained rooms, gorgeous gardens. Lauren was very nice and helpful. Chris and Nancy were awesome as well, full of great insider tips for St John.

Very quiet at night, great for sleeping. Location is very convenient. We rented a car, but definitely could have gotten away with not (at least for some of the days). Having the car did add a lot of convenience to our vacation, no waiting around for a taxi and we could go off and explore on our own schedule.

My only complaint would be that the quality of breakfast was not what you would expect for a B&B of this price range. It consisted of store bought croissants, bagels, and english muffins, hard boiled eggs, and some fruit. We didn't starve by any means, but I honestly expected a little more for the cost to stay here.

Overall, we would absolutely return to Estate Lindholm and St John. Fabulous place to stay and a wonderful island to explore.
