St. John - Estate Zootenvaal?
 

Hello! I'm looking for a good villa to rent on the beach in St. John, and I think I found it! Has anyone stayed at Estate Zootenvaal? Which house and how was it? Was the beach nice? They say there's good snorkeling right there, is it true?<BR><BR>Thanks!<BR>Robert<BR>

Robert - I'm curious...have you gone to SJ yet and did you stay at Estate Zootenvaal? I, too, heard the snorkeling was great there and was wondering how the accommodations were.

We've never stayed there, but heard great things from others that have, and my hubby is the diver/snorkeler. The good reports sparked interest because he's very fussy where we stay. St. John is gorgeous, and we usually stay in St. Thomas, so we might stay there sometime ourselves JUST to stay on St. John; St. John and the British VI's have the best for snorkeling (per hubby).<BR><BR>Sorry I couldn't offer more info than hearsay.

Robert- We have never stayed at Estate Zootenvaal but have been by it many times and the homes appear to be very nice. It is right across the street from the bay and if there is a beach it is very small, definitely not like the beaches on the North shore. You should know that this is Coral Bay which is somewhat remote. The drive to Cruz Bay isn't easy at night and the restaurant choices are limited in the Coral Bay area, if that is important to you.

Just drove by the Estate Z. Seems fairly remote. Go there to rest, not to have much action<BR>Joan
