Unique place, amazing views and quietness, the BBQ and hot tub were a great addition! It's on the east side of the island (Coral Bay) so much less crowded and more quiet, nearby to many amazing beaches.

An Amazing Place!
We loved our stay at the Teahouse celebrating our 40th Wedding Anniversary! We wish we could sleep as sound at home as we did at the Teahouse Treehouse! The outdoor kitchen was one of our favorite rooms of the treehouse making our coffee and breakfast each day, as well as, grilling several dinners at night! The hot tub was perfect after a day of hiking or snorkeling! We look forward to another stay here in the future!

Amazing Time
My husband and I spent our "Babymoon" at the Treehouse and loved every second of it. St. John is a beautiful island and the Treehouse is the perfect place to wake up every morning and take it the breathtaking views. We loved using the snorkeling equipment and cooking in the outdoor kitchen. It's the perfect place to relax and enjoy all the beauty of Coral Bay.

Our overall stay was excellent. Tea house Treehouse lived up to its booking. Private setting, spectacular views with breezy, airy living. Just what the doctor ordered. Would absolutely book again. Janet was very clear and informative heading into our week. Clair was on time and gave the overview we needed. Thank you!

Awesome Villa
Had a great time after finally being able to come due to COVID 19. Owner communicated very well and was very flexible with the situation. Property was great and had fantastic views. Feel like you are in nature the whole time. Note if you like to sleep cold at night with AC, the villa might be a bit warm for you in the warmer months, but the villa has a couple fans that can be used to stay cool.

Haven nestled in nature
This one-of-a-kind Japanese style teahouse with a breathtaking view of Coral Bay provided us with a unique and enjoyable experience. It was tucked high up on the mountainside and surrounded by lush tropical foliage. We received excellent communication from the property manager from the moment we made the reservation and it continued through the time we arrived. The amenities were as described and extras like beach chairs, snorkel gear, a cooler and beach tent were a bonus. We also loved soaking in the hot tub under the stars. We cooked several meals in the open-air kitchen area and found it to be well equipped. Staying in the Teahouse Treehouse was like living in a botanical garden with spectacular views. The remote location requires a Jeep.

Heavenly retreat
The house was perfect for 2 people. Fantastic view. Loved the Japanese sliding doors and screens. Kitchen was easy to use and well stocked with excellent cookware. Grill very helpful to have as there is no oven. Friendly property manager addressed any and all issues promptly and communicated very well. Driveway is a rough go so you must have 4 WD and preferably a Jeep. Has very clean bathroom and excellent shower. It is outside, down some stairs which could be challenging for those who have to get up at night to use the facilities.

Gorgeous, relaxing retreat - perfect for a romantic getaway
My husband and I stayed in the Teahouse Treehouse for a week for our honeymoon, and it was absolutely perfect. The house is even better than it appears in the photos, and I can still hear the forest sounds and feel the ocean breezes that lulled us to sleep each night. Everything was extremely well-maintained, and Bob, the property manager was extremely responsive. For example, we noticed a few wasps nests late one evening, and by the time we returned from snorkeling the following day they had been removed. The hot tub is wonderful, as are the gas grill, the hammock, and the kitchen (complete with all of the appliances you need). We had a few troubles with tire punctures as a result of the bumpy road up, but discovered that the service station in Cruz Bay is fantastic, and very reasonably priced. Altogether, the trip was everything we hoped for, in particular the Teahouse Treehouse!

Sweet place, needs a little attention
This treehouse has a beautiful view, nice architecture, a responsive host, and is located in a safe neighborhood on a quiet part of the island. Two things need attention to make this a 5-star property: 1) mosquito mitigation (we were unable to keep them out of the treehouse and had a difficult time using the outdoor kitchen) and 2) property needs new towels and linens.

Wow! What a place!
Amazing, truly amazing cottage on St. John. To think I almost stayed at a Condo. Estate Calabash Boom is cozy and unique Japanese inspired gem. Immaculate inside and out, incredible view, better cookware than I have at home :) Lovely bath/shower/laundry downstairs (outside & down a set of stairs to the bathroom and gorgeous hot tub but that was never an issue). Getting up the road is about 8 minutes of pretty rough driving - (make sure to rent that 4wd jeep) - but there are few reasons to leave the property once there. Brian was extraordinarily flexible and helpful. Can't wait for my next visit!

Tranquility, nature, breathtaking views...
My wife and I spent our 7-night honeymoon at the Teahouse Treehouse, and it was, hands down, one of the very best weeks of our lives. The Treehouse itself its absolutely gorgeous. The wooden house, with its traditional Japanese-style architecture, blends perfectly into the surrounding jungle, where nature abounds at every turn. We saw lizards, humming birds, gigantic caterpillars, tree frogs and butterflys. On arrival, it truly felt like were stepping off the grid. Tucked away into the hills of Callabash Boom, the privacy is exactly what we were looking for. We had done the traditional all-inclusive resort vacation many times, which has it's own benefits, but the Teahouse Treehouse was perfect for an intimate, relaxing escape to paradise. There is an outdoor kitchenette, fully stocked with dishes. It includes a built in fridge/freezer, and an electric stove top for making romantic dinners for two. Preparing meals, and enjoying them on the balcony over looking Coral Bay is quite an experience. The views look incredible in the pictures, but believe me when I say, they don't do it justice. We loved waking up to the ocean breeze and looking out at turquoise ocean, where lush green islands of the British Virgin Islands sit in the distance. The property manager, Bob, was off island when we made our visit, but Brian, the General Manager, was there to help us w/ any issues we might have had, or to answer any and all questions. He met us on the road on our way from Cruz Bay, helped us settle in, and was really just super accommodating in every way. Also worth noting -- the property now includes a hot tub, which was great for winding down with a nice cold drink in hand in the evenings. In summary, I couldn't recommend the Teahouse Treehouse enough. It's an absolute gem of a villa, and we definitely plan on returning at some point in the near future.

Amazing Place!
We could not have picked a better place for our honeymoon. The views are breathtaking. The cottage is quiet and private, with coral bay being just at the bottom of the hill. It's a small space, but very efficiently designed to have everything you need to be comfortable. On top of that Brian gave us some excellent suggestions on how to spend our time on the island. Can't wait to go back!

An escape to paradise and adventure
The Teahouse Treehouse is everything the pictures show and more. There is nothing I would have changed and everything only exceeded expectations. It was great getting to know our neighbors during the week as well: There was Suzy, who had to be the queen of the hermit crabs since she was the size of a softball and we found her milling about outside both upstairs and down; there was Tom and Jerry, two very curious birds who said hello every morning,; the air squadron as we called them, the half dozen or so hummingbirds that buzzed past us every day; the all Coral Bay Choir, aka the tree frogs that sung us to sleep and woke with us every morning and lastly the multiple species of lizards we would see on our way to the hot tub. That all said, if nature is not your thing, you may want to look elsewhere. Bob who manages the property could not have been more helpful. He came to our rescue the first day when we experienced a flat tire and was available for advice, recommendations and guidance when ever we reached out to him. Whether you are familiar or new to the island Bob is great to have as a resource. What I learned staying in the Treehouse. I have never had so little space, (though more than adequate), I have never had so little stuff (again, more than adequate) and staying in the treehouse with the love of my life I never felt like I had more.

The Teahouse Treehouse was great. Very quiet and peaceful. Beautiful view. Unique construction. It has everything you need including Bob the caretaker/manager. Bob checks in every couple days by text to make your stay is exactly what you wanted it to be. The internet service never failed. Try it you will like it. Perry

Amazing and relaxing honeymoon destination
This place is stunning - even better than the pictures. We can still feel the night breezes, hear the noises of the forest, and see the amazing water view that greeted us when we looked out from our bed each morning. The deck is a wonderful place to have a breakfast with a gorgeous view, and the kitchen is very well equipped, with all of the appliances and utensils you might need. The gas grill made for some delicious, simple dinners as well. The hot tub is wonderful and perfect for romantic soaks for two under the countless stars. The hammock is also a great place to relax. We settled into a slower rhythm of life during our week in the treehouse, one where we woke with the sun, took in the beauty around us, explored wonderful St. John, and relaxed with drinks, the hot tub and sunset before sleeping wonderfully. Finally, Brian and his team were wonderful hosts and very responsive to all of our questions. Altogether, this is a perfect romantic destination; it surpasses its description.
