Photos and Description of the East End vacation bungalow rental
Bungalow, 2 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 2 Baths, (Sleeps 4-6)

Your tropical getaway begins as you meander down the staircase amid bougainvillea and lush, natural landscaping to an enormous patio and deck with an incredible oceanfront view of St. John and the BVI.

Open the floor to ceiling sliding doors and feel the gentle Caribbean breezes throughout the spacious living room, dining room and kitchen area. Tucked behind the entry are two large bedrooms and baths with king sized beds.

After you unpack, stroll to the deck where you'll find inviting lounge chairs and tables. Watch the boats by day and the twinkling lights from St. John at night. The breathtaking view can only be interrupted by an occasional deer in the yard!

The bungalow is perfect for a family vacation....it's comfortable for children and adults alike. Vessup beach, St. Thomas' best kept secret, is a short walk down the road, directly across from the Ritz Carlton.

This home is private, spacious, and affordable...making it the perfect choice for your Caribbean vacation!

Awesome!

From the time we arrived (in the late evening) and saw the twinkling lights of St John to our departure a week later we fell in love with the “Islands”. This was a great relaxing vacation and Papaya Ridge was a great “base camp” for our adventure. It’s located on Cabrita Point at the East end of St. Thomas and is far enough off the beaten path to make you feel like a local but close enough to shopping, restaurants and any adventure you might want. We rented a car and visited the Top of the Mountain, Meagan’s Bay, Coki Beach and much more.
Papaya Ridge was comfortable with the fresh ocean breeze (AC not needed), great views of St John and some other smaller cays, ferries, sailboats and lots of soaring birds. First thing each morning we grabbed our coffee and spent time on the deck just soaking in the tranquil view and planning our daily adventure. The place is affordable, has a full kitchen, cable TV, wireless internet and it a great place to launch your island adventure!

Spectacular Island Get Away!

What an awesome experience! I cannot describe it any better than the pictures displayed on this page. While the Villa is away from all the hustle and bustle of the shopping areas, it is just a few minutes from anything you would want to do. The view is spectacular as you look across the water to St.John's Island as a warm breeze blows across the deck to create a very relaxing atmosphere. Large king size beds are very comfortable, house is clean and freshly painted. Access to all you need for a great time while staying at the Villa. I have already recommended this "one" to family and friends!

Honeymoon perfection!!

5 of 5
Submitted: June 3, 2012 Stayed: April 2012
My wife and I recently returned from our honeymoon on St Thomas and St John - and we already can't wait to head back! Papaya Ridge was the PERFECT place to call home for the first week of our incredible vacation.We loved enjoying breakfast or sunset cocktails on the deck overlooking St John - it was the best mix of "close enough" to everything, but far enough that you didn't feel like you were being bombarded by cruise tourists. We were lucky to call this little piece of heaven our home base! If you get to go, make sure to enjoy bacon in the morning - and share it with the hermit crabs - by that evening there will be tons of new friends. :) The owners are extremely knowledgeable about all things Virgin Islands related and will be sure to steer you in the right direction of places to go and things. This home is perfect for couples, groups of friends and families. We are already planning on returning in the fall with friends!

Incredible views and location, nice owners but house needs updating

3 of 5
Submitted: March 25, 2012 Stayed: January 2012
We stayed in this place for a week in January- booked last minute, the owners were very nice and accommodating. The view is truly breathtaking- and the location is very close to everything including grocery stores, Red Hook, Ritz beach is a 2 minute drive literally across the street from the Vessup Bay beach. You can watch the ferry go by to St John from your deck- amazing and peaceful.

Now - the inside of this place really needs updating. Updating it would make all the difference in the world! The furniture is very old and the kitchen is outdated, everything is functional except for the window shutters- they barely turn and need to be retired long ago... Same with the front glass door.

It's a good place for the money with plenty of space (2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms) but do not expect more than what you pay for!
Owner's Response: Thank you for your review and we appreciate your input regarding the need to update the villa. We have tried to keep our rental prices affordable without spending money on a new kitchen and doors, but, perhaps it's time to do so!

Thanks for choosing our home for your St. Thomas vacation and we hope you'll come again.....especially after we remodel this summer!
