Couples Retreat, King Bed, Wi-Fi, Cable TV, A/C, Close to Cruz Bay

Harts Terrace is a tastefully decorated one bedroom condo on the lower level of a private villa. There is a two bedroom vacation rental on the upper floor of this Villa. Both rentals share a common driveway and parking area with separate entrances and complete privacy from each other. It is the perfect cozy apartment set up for a couple and still feel the spacious feeling of being in a villa. The space features an air conditioned large bedroom with King Size Bed, and in suite full bathroom as well as a sitting area to relax and enjoy a movie or sports on TV.

Harts Terrace being nestled up on the hill is the ideal setting for a couples vacation, quietly nestled in to the picturesque hills of Chocolate Hole on the South Shore of this beautiful island. Awaken each morning to the breath-taking views of Harts Bay and St. Croix in the distance.

You will enjoy all paved roads on your way to your vacation villa. Upon coming down the driveway you will experience a home with beautiful landscaping as you find yourself relaxing immediately upon entering the villa. Within walking distance of the Westin Resort, Harts Terrace is less than a two minute drive to the popular village of Cruz Bay, offering many dining and shopping options, places to just sit and relax sip a cocktail and take in the relaxed pace of Island life.

The hillside offers fabulous ocean views to Hart Bay on the covered porch area where you can relax and dine while taking in the ocean breezes. A full separate kitchen is provided for preparing those laid back meals and a gas BBQ on the porch makes steaks and seafood the perfect island treat.

For a couples accommodation you won't find a better fit than Harts Terrace.

Unwelcome surprises
Although the property manager tried to remedy the problems at this VRBO (Abby even bought us a dinner in apology), the stay was fraught with failures: not operating WIFI, washing machine, smoke detector and door locks. Plus the kitchen utensils, dishes and pans were littered with insect excrement, chairs were broken, screen doors barely opened, mold in bathroom and a long list of maintenance issues direrly needing attention. Perhaps this property manager needs some assistance to encourage the owner to repair the apartment and bring it up to Vrbo standards.

Beautiful Property and Wonderful Host
The property and location were as described. The views are very nice. The host and property manager were easy communicate with and helpful when we had personal requests before and during the stay. The property manager met us at the ferry, helped arrange a couple taxis before we got a Jeep and followed up the ensure our stay was as we expected. Very happy with the property, location and service provided by the host and property manager.

Excellent value on St. John
We stayed in the lower, one bedroom unit. It was huge. Everything was comfortable. It is not decorated per the latest trend, but that was MORE than made up for by the amenities and price. We used the cooler, beach chairs and snorkel gear every day. We washed a load of laundry there, which allowed us to pack less. We cooked most of our meals there due to Covid. The kitchen was well equipped. The lower unit covered patio has a South view of the ocean, has nice chairs and catches nice breezes. I did get some bug bites sitting out in the evening. You could rent the upper unit which has a screened covered patio if you are concerned about bugs. The house is close enough to walk into Cruz Bay, but the sidewalks are mostly non-existent and there are two significant hills to traverse. A car rental is a much better option. The Dolphin market that is nearby is well stocked with groceries and liquor. Finally, the property manager Abby, is absolutely the best. She made sure we had everything we needed and made some wonderful recommendations about where to go on the island. We would definitely rent again.

St. John never disappoints! Hart’s Delight has many great features - close to town, spectacular view of Chocolate Hole and clean. A few things to consider if staying here. It is “rustic” - this unit is the downstairs quarters to a larger unit upstairs. No frills or fancy amenities (but clean). Although I think the VRBO listing mentioned this I guess I didn’t understand but the bedroom is separated from the kitchen/laundry room by the expansive patio (2 separate rooms). We prefer to cook while we are here and the kitchen is simple and has limited cooking utensils.. During our visit the BBQ grill was not working (but we were able to use the upstairs grill). As usual with most St. John residence the driveway is tricky and Jeep really needs to be backed into/turned around at bottom. This is tricky if 2 jeeps. Abby the unit manager was very helpful and nice.

Perfect Location in Paradise
We loved how close and convenient Harts Terrace was to town, only a few minutes away to a grocery store or restaurants and the night life in Cruz Bay. Abby the manager was there to greet us when we arrived from the ferry on St. John and took us to pick up our rental car and led us up to the house. She showed us around and helped get us acquainted with the place and went over a map of the Island with us. We found the home very clean and comfortable and would recommend it to anyone looking for a great place to stay. We are already booked there again for next year. Can't wait to return.

We couldn't get enough of the unbelievable View!!!
Hart's Terrace exceeded all of our expectations for our vacation on St. John. We have been to St. John many times but this is definitely our favorite place to stay! The HUGE porch area is the perfect place to relax and take in the spectacular view! We started all of our days and ended all of our days there. 😊 Hart's Terrace had great privacy and was still close to Town and all the beaches. The bed was very comfortable and the entire place was well decorated and clean. We enjoyed being able to grill out a couple nights on the grill. The view from the large bedroom window was also priceless!! A great way to get up every morning!! Chris was extremely helpful answering all our questions in advance and giving us some suggestions on what to do while we are on the island. He gave us some ideas of places we had never been before! Once we got on the island, Abby was very warm and friendly and welcoming! We immediately felt like we were part of the island once we arrived! We can't wait to go back to St. John and Hart's Delight soon! We are already trying to work out our available dates so we can contact Chris again.

The property was very nice. Great view. Good kitchen, bedrooms & bathrooms. Very open and inviting
We came post-hurricane and realized things wouldn't be normal. But we still had a great stay and would come back to this house again. Chris on the front end was very helpful in answering questions and getting us ready. While there, Abby was extremely helpful in providing local advice and getting us acquainted. We couldn't have been more pleased with her help. The view is great. Location is close enough to town to get supplies or go out. We would rent again. Thanks for such a great stay and if you are thinking of going to St John, I highly recommend going now. Post hurricane there is plenty of damage, but the people are excited to have tourist coming back and you'll have the beaches and restaurants to yourself.
