New to the rental market! Snails Pace is a private and quaint cottage located in quiet Fish Bay on the beautiful island of St. John in the U.S Virgin Islands.

Loved Snails Pace!

Sherry2 North Carolina
Review Submitted: August 3, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
We had a fabulous week-long stay at Snail's Pace! It was perfect - very peaceful, clean and comfortable with all the amenities we needed, and easily accessible from Fish Bay Road. We will definitely return next year!

25th Wedding Anniversary

Dave & Ruby Atlanta Georgia
Review Submitted: July 14, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
My wife and I just got back from SJ and it was everything we expected plus. I would recommend Snails Pace to anyone. It was a pleasure working with Terri on making reservations, the property manager was there to help. The property is well maintained and the pictures do not really give it is due. We felt like it was our little quite spot on the island and it was still very easy to get into town and enjoy the carnival. When I visit SJ again Snails Pace will always be my first choice.

second time at snails pace - 14th to St. John

Review Submitted: June 11, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
I stayed spring break 2008 and 2009 at Snails Pace. I've come to St. John for many years and by far this is my favorite place to stay. It is in a residential area of the island. If you are looking for loud partying, this isn't the place for you...you'll need to go to town. However, if you are looking for a beautiful picturesque cottage with a third acre of manicured property, you'll love this property. It has a wonderful outdoor shower, and wildlife that visits you often (hermit crabs, lizards, frogs), not to mention Quincy, the neighbors dog, who is always hanging around to keep you company. It's a short drive to Cruz Bay if you want to get loud and a short walk to Fish Bay and Reef Bay. Love the place and will be going again this July for almost three weeks!

A quaint and cute cottage with all amenities

Ajit Highland Park,IL,USA
Review Submitted: April 28, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
We stayed here for 5 nights and had a blast. The cottage is very pretty, spotless, has all amenities (and more!) and appliances and an awesome outdoor shower :-)
The owner was easy to communicate with and the property manager was very helpful. He even plucked a papaya from their tree and handed it to us :-D The neighborhood is extremely quiet. All in all, if you want a get-away-from-it-all cottage but don't want to compromise on creature comforts, this place is great. We are really glad we stayed here!
Owner's Response: A five star guest. Polite and extremely considerate. Left property in immaculate condition. You're always welcome at SP.
