Couldn't get the grandparents, so we're taking our kids with us to our favorite Carrib island St. John and need some recommendations for villas to accomodate our family of 5, kids range in age from 9-12. Must be clean, close to Cruz Bay, cable TV, small pool, 3 bedrooms which includes 1 king size bed and AC opt. We would stay at the Westin, however, thinking it will be too pricey and GallowPt website says they don't take kids under 13.
Looking for specific villa recs. Thanks.

Hi Island Breeze. Regarding Gallows Point, I'm not sure which website you looked at, because Suite St. John's site (there are 2 places you can book Gallows through) says under 5 years is not permitted and under 12 is not recommended. You may want to call them as they may be the perfect solution for you... very close to Cruz Bay, big beautiful rooms, fantastic views and everything a family could need... plus daily maid service unlike many villas.

There are lots of sites offering villas and many are mentioned on this board. Just search for St. John and you'll find more than you can handle.

One direct suggestion is a place a friend stayed at last year. Check out St. John Passion.

Have fun,

BTW, I am not connected with the owners in any way and only recommend this based on my friend and his wife's endorsement.

Hi Island_breeze, you might check www.stjohnlinks.com website. We found our villa through this website, and we were able to rent direct from the owners. Worth a try! Trish
