Villa Life - Our Blog

Villa Reviews now on our web site!

In an effort to make our villa reviews simpler to access, we have compiled all of the testimonials posted on this blog, on our web site!

We know that reviews can help our guests to make their decisions, and appreciate receiving them. In fact, we'd love to see even more of these! Our new, free St. Thomas island information app, Villa Life, contains a digital guest book feature, which makes it so easy to leave a review. Often guests provide these on our paper Villa Guest Questionnaire (St. Thomas villas - we're the island managers here)... and, of course on the other islands our managers share notes sent via email or left in physical guest books.

If you've ever stayed with us, we'd certainly love to post your villa review, too!  Just email it to [email protected].

Thanks so much for all of the reviews you've sent thus far - and any feedback, whether negative or positive. It all helps us to improve and take better care of you!

Relaxing time at St. Thomas villa Kyalami

St. Thomas villa, Kyalami. December 2012

This villa guest wrote to tell us how much his family enjoyed their stay and the attentions of Smitty, the villa's manager...

Dear Friends,

In the name of our family, we want to thank you for letting us stay in the beautiful and very comfortable Kyalami house.

As Smitty (villa manager) put it, we left completly relaxed and different looking than when we arrived. 

He is a wonderful person and very helpful all of the time.

Cabrita Cliff Haus "Seventh Wonder"

St. Thomas villa Cabrita Cliff Haus. November 2012

(Courtesy of the villa owners)

The view from this villa is amazing and the constant parade of sailboats as they silently drift by makes it very difficult to leave the property once you arrive.  The villa is absolutely beautiful and completely updated with very tasteful artwork.  The appliances are new and the kitchen is well stocked with everything you need. 

The city of Red Hook is only a 10 minute drive away...

The villa is very clean and very well maintained. The passenger and car ferry (to St. John) are located right in Red Hook and very easy to use...

This place is so perfect that we almost don't want to tell you about it out of fear the villa will be booked on our planned return. This will be one of the locations where we return time and time again...

The Perfect Honeymoon at St. Somewhere

St. Thomas villa, St. Somewhere.  May 2012

We had the perfect stay.  We loved 'Chop-Chop' (their escort)... 'Chop-Chop' was the BEST! 

Amazing villa. Would absolutely recommend to people.

I am a general manager of a boutique hotel in South Beach, and I always "find" something wrong in places I stay. Honestly, nothing was wrong here. Everything was amazing.

I will recommend this to all my guests and friends/family. Thank you for giving us the perfect honeymoon!

St. Thomas villa Casa Lupa gains a new fan!

St. Thomas villa. Casa Lupa, April 2012

This hard-working Virgin Islander came home for the VI Carnival 60th Anniversary celebration, and could think of nothing better than settling in at Casa Lupa! The view at left of the deck through custom doors sold him on the property last year, when he filmed the video for USVI native Pressure Buss Pipe ("Touch You") there!

 

Good morning Anita, I would like to say a sincere thanks to you, Nancy and the owners of Casa Lupa for helping me have one of the most relaxing vacations while home in the Virgin Islands ever.

As expected, the Villa was beautiful and the power generator was KING during blackouts. ;-)

Know that I am a big fan of McLaughlin Anderson and Casa Lupa and I look forward to my future visits with you. Thanks again and have a wonderful week.
