Best Ever

We can’t say enough about how amazing is Pina Playa! The views off of Canal Bay are incredible. We spent hours on the back porch, in lounge chairs and at a dining table- just soaking it all in. The family and dining room and kitchen all focus on the bay, too, so you can still enjoy it all inside. The patio off the second floor master bedroom is a fun touch. Communication was the best we’ve ever seen during our many vrbo stays. We especially appreciated a book of tips on car rental places, the ferry, where to shop, and what to bring - we followed them to the t and were so glad we did. All the advice made things so easy. The house is well stocked with paper products, spices and such - as well as pots and pans. Check in was so easy - the property manager met us at the house and gave even more tips on everything from driving to the best beaches (Majo and Salt Pond - we saw the full safari of the undersea world, from turtles and parrot fish to rays and families of squid!) and restaurants. Three were super close, and all were fun.The house was so perfect - totally clean, cute, comfortable beds, solar power backup, and ac in the bedrooms. Large fans including overhead and a ton of windows kept the other areas relatively cool even in late July. We hope to go back to Pina Playa for another vacation! It worked so well for our family of four (2 young adult kids).

Great home, but less than ideal stay.

Hate to leave a less than perfect review, but this stay was less than ideal. The home is perfectly nice and had everything we needed, there were just a couple of issues that had we known about we probably would've chosen to stay somewhere else. The first issue is that about half of the windows in the house are broken and unable to close all the way. This made it impossible to cool the house despite having AC units in all three bedrooms, so we were miserably hot in the house the entire trip. The downstairs with no AC was constantly in the mid to high 80s whether the windows were closed or open, and the bedrooms with AC would only get down to the high 70s even at night even with the windows "closed". The second issue is that we could not use the kitchen sink for the entire trip. For some reason the water that came out of the kitchen sink literally smelled like rotting fish, and if you even rinsed your fingers in it it would take washing your hands with soap multiple times in one of the bathroom sinks to get the stench off of your hands. The water in all of the bathroom sinks and the showers was fine, as was the water used by the dishwasher, but not being able to use the kitchen the entire 9 day trip was a huge pain. We also had a more minor issue with the toilets in one of the bathrooms that kept having issues clogging even though we were putting almost nothing in it. The house is great, but has serious issues that need to either be fixed or mentioned in the description.

Very Accommodating with Breathtaking views

We stayed in Coral Bay Pina Playa for just about a week, this home was so beautiful and accommodating , with everything from beach chairs , coolers, towels, you name it ! etc. The home was very inviting and peaceful, especially the morning sun on the back decks. The rooms are set up very privately and each bedroom having its own bathroom made for a very smooth stay. The manager Kristen was very great with her communication and enjoyable to speak to. Pina was gorgeous.

Amazing Villa!

Loved this spot! The views are amazing and the villa caretaker went above and beyond! Our flight was delayed and we arrived on island after midnight. She waited for us at a boat dock and made sure we made it to our villa that night. The villa was clean and had everything we needed for an amazing vacation!! Thank you so much. Would definitely book it again:)

Amazing Stay at Pina Playa

Our two families of 3 had an amazing stay here. The location is great- easy to get to all the beaches we love. The Coral bay side of the island is very chill so we love it there. The house was well appointed with everything you need to cook and grill. Kathryn's recommendations on jeep rental in STT and grocery shopping was perfect. She's a great host. Highly recommend a stay here!

Perfect Pina Playa

Kristen and Kathryn were wonderful to communicate with and very responsive. We really appreciated having Kristen guide us to the house when we arrived at night. The house had everything we needed, from kitchen items to beach chairs. We appreciated the not steep driveway. But really one of the best parts was the view. Each day we marveled at the incredible view of the coral bay harbor and all of the surrounding mountains.

Week in paradise

My wife and I have been to St John annually for over 10 years. We bought a newbie couple here to share the house and had a great time. The amenities for snorkeling and cooking were great. The on site property manager was very responsive to a couple of small situations. Even with two days of rain, we had a great time.

Great Location!

We LOVED Pina Playa! Its location is great for branching out in different directions each day. The driveway is easy to maneuver—a lot easier than most others on the island. The house was just as advertised. It has a gorgeous view of Coral Bay! We really appreciated the clothes line, beach supplies, well stocked kitchen (pans, dishes, etc), lights along driveway and the motion light for when we returned after dark, outdoor shower for spraying off sand, the books about St. John, the washer and dryer, the bright and well lit rooms, the grill, the water bottles when we arrived after a long day of traveling, and the beautiful deck with plenty of seating. The owner, Kathryn, was very helpful when I sent questions about the Island. We also appreciated the property manager leading us to the property since it was dark and it’s sometimes hard to find the house you’re looking for. I will definitely try to rent Pina Playa on my next trip to St. John!

A great house in a great location

This is an excellent property in every respect, and we have been renting in St. John for 30 years. The manager provided excellent advance information and check in was easy. The house layout is thoughtfully designed for guest privacy, with a large primary bedroom upstairs and two ample bedrooms on the lower floor, each with an adjacent full bathroom. The beds were comfortable and a wide variety of pillows was available. Unlike many St. John rentals, this house is easily accessible from the Center Line Road without heroic driving. The kitchen/great room area is well stocked with most of the cookware, dishes, glasses, and utensils that one would want, and it is easy to cook, eat, and clean up. A large variety of beach chairs, coolers, towels, and water gear are available on the wrap-around deck on the main floor. Located above Coral Bay in (we think) the best part of the island, Francis Bay beach is about 15 minutes away, and food shopping and dining in Coral Bay is convenient. All in all, a really good experience.

Myself, my husband, and our two adult children had a wonderful family vacation at Pina Playa Villa. The house was perfect to come home to after a day of snorkeling. Having beach chairs, towels, and coolers to use made going out to the beaches so easy and pleasurable.

Perfect place for a relaxing week

My wife and two college-aged daughters stayed at Pina Playa for the week. The house was perfect. The master suite was big with a very comfortable king bed. The girls each had their own separate rooms and bathrooms. All of the bedrooms were air conditioned. The kitchen had everything that you would want and the living room was relaxing with plenty of couch space and a nice big tv. The view of Coral Bay from the rooms was excellent. The restaurants, grocery store and many of the beaches were a short, scenic drive away. The owner’s car provided for rental was very convenient. We couldn’t be happier we stayed in Coral Bay and we’d stay at Pina Playa again without question.

Great Location- Quick Drive to Beaches

We have been coming to St John for over 10 years and have stayed at a bunch of villas and Pina Playa is definitely one of our best stays! The house is mid island so super close to Mayo and Francis beaches. The area was quiet and the road to the house was paved which was a huge plus. The layout of the house is perfect for families or friends. And the views from the main living area and master bedroom are beautiful! The hammock swings on the deck were awesome, so comfy and relaxing. The kitchen has everything you need to dine in. The house was cool enough with the windows open however the bedrooms do have AC that works very well although a little loud. We also rented the owners SUV which was clean. We felt totally comfortable there and will be back! Great communication from the owner Kathryn and the property manager Kristin was super nice. Thank you for providing us with yet another unforgettable trip!
