We stayed at St. John inn for 1 week. The hosts Karen and Angela were so sweet and friendly. The room was comfortable and they had so many things for us to borrow for the beach that we didn’t need to bring anything at all! Super accommodating and they had free rum punch happy hour every day! If you are thinking of staying in St. John I 100% recommend this location.

Stayed at the St. John Inn for three nights. This place has a very Caribbean hostel vibe, colorful and laid back. The staff could not have been better. Angie and Karen were so nice and helpful. They had the continental breakfast out in the morning and were able to help us navigate our way around. They keep a stock of snorkeling gear, beach bags, and sunscreen out for guests to borrow, which was super nice. Easy 5 min. walk to the waterfront, where all the restaurants, bars, and ferry are. They have their own parking lot, so there is no charge to park your rental. The room AC units worked fine, as long as you don't go below 72 degrees, at which time they ice up and take time to thaw. The only complaint was that there were a few bugs in the bathroom, which I didn't mind, but some might. For the price, those coming from the U.S. might expect better, but you are paying for the convenient location and friendly staff. I'd stay there again.

St John Inn has an incredible ambiance that makes it a wonderful experience all round. It is tucked into an eclectic part of Cruz Bay that may not work for everyone. It’s a bit on the older side but that’s also what creates its awesome charm & vibe! Karen and the staff are amazing. They will jump to help however they can, on any request. We felt so comfortable and taken care of during our stay. Loved the short walk to pretty much everything you might want to do. My husband and I had a blast! Would definitely stay again.

Location and staff are great. The cooking items and towels really need upgrades. Daily cleaning is practically just making the bed, but we are very clean people, thus we maintain the room very decent.

The first night the power went off and they do not have a generator. My husband needs a CPAP machine, plus the room got very hot and impossible to sleep. Not ideal after a long trip. Eventually, the power came back. That was the only problem. Other than that very relaxing place.

Decent breakfast provided. Egg o waffles, packaged english muffins and bagels. Fruit or yogurt would have been a nice addition. Wonderful that they allowed us to use beach equipments- chairs, toys, cooler, towels. Patio was nice to eat at (there are cats that hang around however). Clean, close to the grocery stores and the ferry. Nice pool.

This hotel is like a bed & breakfast. It has 12 units scattered around the property in different buildings. The rooms are clean but dated. The breakfast could use some fruit and yogurt but there were many carb options. It was nice to be able to grab something quick. The building felt safe and private. The 5:00 free cocktail happy hour is a nice touch. The pool is clean and small and open 24 hrs. The property is set up to allow privacy if you prefer it. The staff is helpful and accommodating. Beach towels and supplies are provided and plentiful. If you forget sunscreen, bug spray, etc, they have it for you to use for free. I would recommend this property to others. This place is walkable to Cruz Bay.

Power went out often on the island, a generator is needed at this property. Out flight was cancelled and we lost a day. I was told we would get credit for that but haven’t received confirmation of that yet. Location is okay, taxi service is a few blocks away, restaurants close. Not sure if I’d return or recommend at this time, still waiting on owner to honor his verbal agreement. But no matter what, a generator is desperately needed to protect a quality experience.

A tropical storm/hurricane impacted our stay at a VRBO on the east side of St John. The house was getting closed up so we had to leave and find a hotel. St John's Inn had a room. The staff couldn't have been more helpful but couldn't help the power outage. Oh well, they did their best and we are grateful. Even though it's a 2- star hotel, I wouldn't hesitate to stay there again:)

My wife and I enjoyed the stay, our room, the staff and would be happy to stay there again. Parking is limited and accessibility is for able bodied people. We typically walked to restaurants.
Our bed was comfortable, the AC unit kept the room comfortable.
The breakfast was breads, cereals, coffee, milk, juice.
The Inn does a pretty good job of taking care of the place, they just don't have the ability to take care of places in the neighborhood, which are a bit run-down. It is an island community, so it is a relaxed environment.

The location is amazing! Close to shopping, grocery stores, and restaurants. The staff are wonderful and make you feel welcome, chat, and answer questions about the area. The inn is older, funky and had all the amenities we needed. Breakfast was great-bagels, English muffins, cereal, juice, coffee, milk, and apples. The water is drinkable. We appreciated the ice cold water after walks! Rum punch happy hr was appreciated. They offer coolers, beach chairs, towels, and floaties. They have a take leave area for sunscreen-bug spray which is great. The pool is cool, clean, and a peaceful pleasant area with plants and a bathroom. They do have parking. Air conditioning is great! It is the BEST value I found for amenities and price on the island. If you are looking for a bougie resort this isn’t it, if you want a great value, comfortable bed, awesome location, and quirky- fun atmosphere this is for you! I also enjoyed having a suite room (Cruz bay) which had a full oven, microwave, full size fridge. My only advice is to prepare yourself for the very steep hills (great cardio) and very sharp curves if driving the island! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

A fun, quirky place to stay. Perfect for our St John experience. It's not a fancy, modern hotel experience, so if you are looking for that go elsewhere. The rooms are clean and comfy, but unconventional. We really liked being able to use the library of books and maps and beach gear (chairs, coolers, towels, snorkel equip) for our play time, and love that they have \"leftover lotion and bug spray\" available for guest use. Why throw away a perfectly good, mostly full bottle of product when another guest leaves it because they don't want to pack it on the plane? Staff was very friendly and helpful and great to chat with. We also enjoyed being able to interact with other guests around breakfast and rum punch. The neighborhood is working class, but safe. Easy walking to Cruz Bay shopping and dining. Only complaint would be that the bed was not very comfortable, but overall it was a nice place and a great experience. Would go back in a heartbeat!

Great stay

All of the employees/owners are great and very flexible. We went to multiple hotels throughout our trip and this was the most flexible and communicative hotel we stayed at! Room is spacious and has a couch/tv area. It is also located close to town - as long as you are comfortable walking 1/2 a mile, it’s very easy to get a taxi. It is pricer in general but affordable for St John!

Pros: Staff was super nice. We showed up early and were greeted by Michael. Our room wasn't ready, but he gave us ideas of things to do, with directions. They have a ton of supplies you can borrow to take to the beach, including coolers, towels, and snorkeling gear. They also have complimentary sunscreen, bug spray, and other sundries. Everyone, staff and guests, were nice. Definitely a place you won't know a stranger. Room was huge.The car ferry is just around the corner, and the people ferry and businesses are less than a 10 minute walk away.

Cons: Low water pressure, but not a shock. The layout of the property is interesting, and our room ended up being just off the office. Looks like there were 3 other rooms off to the other side. This means we could hear everything happening in the office, and I assume they would be able to hear us. The pool had to be drained while we were there, because of repairs. Not sure we would have used it, but it was a bummer that it wasn't an option.

Everything else: The property is older. It's not a fancy hotel. It doesn't pretend to be anything it's not. We were there only one night, but I wish it was longer. Would recommend on the basis of the staff alone.

Ok but don't expect peace and quiet

First of all let me say that the owner is great. He was very helpful. However, there is a Dominican dance club across the street and it is EXTREMELY loud. Like a car with a booming system was parked in front of our room. Our floor in the room was literally shaking from the bass. I'm not one to care much about noise, but after a few hours it gets old. Plus there were beetle-looking bugs in the bathroom. It is within a short walk to restaurants, bars and shops though.

Always a Great 1st Night

We always stay at the St. John Inn the 1st night we arrive, and the last night before we leave. It's the perfect buffer to extend your time on St. John a couple nights and it's close to town.

We've stayed at this property before, and were happy to return. There was some trepidation traveling during Covid, and with the ongoing rebuilding efforts after Maria, but as soon as we landing in Cruz Bay and walked up the hill to the Inn, we knew we were in for a great trip. Jim as very kind, welcoming and available to assist during our stay. The Inn itself is clean and amenable for what it is, it's no palace but it works very well for a beach vacation launching and retiring spot. The location right near the Dolphin market and all the restaurants makes it ideal for those looking to explore the island on foot. You don't need a jeep to get to Solomon or Honeymoon beach, and the taxis will take you further for just a few dollars. We will return as soon as we possibly can.

Great stay at a local neighborhood hotel in St. John. If you’re looking for a big resort experience then this hotel is probably not for you, but if you’re looking for great value and a great experience this is for you. Clean rooms, continental breakfast and rum punch happy hour in the evening included. Beach/snorkeling equipment available on site to borrow, friendly helpful staff. Who could ask for more?

The owner lives on the property and was very nice. The bed was comfortable and the location was good. It was only a short walk into downtown to the the shops and restaurants. The unit we stayed in could use some updating and the a/c didn’t work that great. Overall good value.

Great Location on St. John

Our family of four stayed in one of their suites, which had two bedrooms. Both rooms had queen beds, a/c and ample room to move around and have bags out. One of the two rooms had a tv and there was a little cubby area between the rooms a d near the bath that had a mini-fridge, coffee maker and microwave. The shower was not large but the water pressure was good and didn’t take too long to heat up. The outdoor space was nice with lots of tables and chairs for guests to eat continental breakfast, read, or be on computer. WiFi not amazing in the rooms but good just outside on the property. The owner was very nice and had lots of information to share about the local area in terms of things to see and do and the history of the area. I would recommend this place to other travelers.

Located walking distance to town and parking on site or on nearby streets pretty available.

We had a wonderful stay at the St John Inn, the property was clean and had everything we needed, to include all the beach equipment you could ask for. The location is within walking distance to many of the local restaurants and the ferry in Cruz Bay. The customer service was beyond and Phillip checked in as you would walk by to make sure everything was going great. Everyday we felt so incredibly welcomed and we will be back to stay at the St John Inn!

Upon arrival the owner met us, we did not arrive until 8pm. He was waiting for us, he was very welcoming and accommodating. He gave us the scoop of everything we needed to know about the island - as St. John Island is my favorite island thus far in the USVI. The property is quaint well kept and the owner and staff were simply awesome. The property is a short walk to Cruz Bay where the local eateries and shops are - we were not able to go, but we were told that from the property to Salomon Beach and Honeymoon beach were not a far walk. Unfortunately, there was a family emergency and we had to leave abruptly. I am definitely coming back to finish my visit soon - and I would love the opportunity to befriend the owner and staff as they feel like kindred spirits. Oh, and the nightly rum punch was awesome!

Little gem close to the heart of actions.

The warmness of this property is unique. I have been traveled and stayed lots of hotels. Many of them offered great service. But Mike and his wife, who are the leading hosts, are more than that. They genuinely offers you their heart and their friendship. Every morning and evening, guests and hosts hanging around restaurants like long lost friends, exchanging stories and adventures. No wonder some people stays there for months.

St. John’s Inn is a wonderful beachy hotel in the heart of Cruz Bay. If you’re looking for a true island experience with great people, comfortable accommodations, and easy access to all the top sites, this is the place! The rooms were clean and roomy with a kitchenette. The pool and deck are well kept and beautiful. The staff and owner, Dave, are exceptionally welcoming and kind. I highly recommend this property and will be going back. Bonus, Mr. Pipers Jeep rentals is across the road, I was in and out in 10 mins - affordable and convenient. Also, two large markets are within walking distance of the hotel. It was really nice to have the option to pick-up a few things for lunch on the beach. Restaurants and shops also very near by.

Enjoy your stay - you won’t regret it!
