Blue Wrasse - Cute Little Cottage with Gorgeous Deck Views

Great views, wonderful natural setting sleeping with the trees!

Our stay was absolutely wonderful! The house is the perfect mix of cozy and well-equipped, with an incredibly comfortable bed that made for great sleep. We spent every morning on the deck with coffee; the sunrise views are breathtaking and make every step of those stairs completely worth it.The property felt like a secluded tropical retreat. We loved the local neighbors, from wild goats on the road to hermit crabs under the stairs and geckos on the deck. The nighttime sounds of the wildlife were so soothing. A huge thank you to the property managers, Leonarda and Nina, who were kind, helpful, and made us feel right at home. A beautiful stay in a stunning area!

Loved the view. The cottage was stocked with everything we needed

We had a great time visiting the Blue Wrasse. The place was as advertised with a beautiful deck and a great view. The outdoor shower was a nice amenity, along with a well stocked kitchen. The site manager was very responsive and helpful. I got stung by a wasp going down the stairs, so be careful of nests there. Also, water is not potable so will need to bring your own water. All considered, was a great stay!

We enjoyed the setting... Very peaceful. We appreciated having snorkel gear to use.

Great location near Coral Bay, super close to the market, restaurants, as well as some incredible beaches such as Salt Pond. Very clean property and check in and out was smooth. The deck was very well-kept, and they had all the amenities needed for a great stay. Would absolutely stay at Blue Wrasse again!

This is a lovely property. It is private and well stocked. The outstanding view from the deck, especially at sunrise, offsets the 86, slippery when wet, steps to get to the cottage. The location is get. We are partial to the Coral Bay area. So, this was a great find.

I love Coral Bay so I asked my best friend and one of my sisters to join me for warm-up during a very cold and long Northeast winter. We ate in some (kitchen has everything one should need), dined out locally (Skinny Legs and Johnny Limes’s), toured the island in a rented Jeep, swam at Maho. Heavenly.

If you can get past the challenges that have been described by others- 80 steps down, non potable water, no paper in the toilets, small space with only outside access from kitchen to bedroom, occasional electricity outage- then this is a wonderful place. The view is magnificent and from the deck it feels like having the entire valley and bay to yourself. A place to get away from civilization.

This little cottage had everything for our anniversary week! The view was breathtaking. Jungle sounds in lazy Coral Bay are just the best! Please note- there are ALOT of stairs up/down to the property so those with mobility issues should opt out. Great place!

What a beautiful view! I didn’t know there would be so many steps down to the cottage but we got our flights in each day. Secluded and felt private even though there are residences on either side. Would stay again but couldn’t do it if one had knee problems.

Our week at this cottage was great. The deck and view is the highlight. Watched the sun rise every morning. The description is accurate. We were fine with the stairs but that will limit who this cottage is good for. Don’t forget you need to carry your luggage and groceries up and down them also.

We stayed 5 nights at Blue Wrasse for our 13th anniversary. The view from this small cottage home was absolutely breathtaking and located on a steep hill just above Johnny Lime, Sharky's, and Jolly Dog. There are ~80 (slick when wet) stairs to get down to the cottage, so be prepared if you have a lot of luggage! Taking a shower & using the toilet outside was new for us and there were no curtains to provide privacy. The water pressure was VERY low, so if you have long hair, it's difficult to wash after a day at the beach, but we made it work. The AC was a lifesaver, but the location of the AC in the downstairs bedroom was right above my head and very loud so I did not sleep well during our stay. Also, there are no curtains in the home to provide relief from the heat of the sun coming into the windows or privacy, if desired. As previous reviews have stated, there is a bug problem in the home. We expected a spider or a lizard here and there due to the climate based on the owner responses to these reviews, but cockroaches are unacceptable and preventable. I was woken up each night due to a cockroach crawling on me. Yes, we took out the trash daily and kept the doors shut. In addition, there was a leak in the roof that dripped down onto the bed in the loft. We advised the property manager immediately who confirmed they'd have it looked at, but we never received a follow up that it was fixed so we were unable to use that bed. Fantastic book selection!!

Very private, quiet place with a gorgeous view!!!

We loved being on the quieter side of the island. Close access to many great beaches and snorkeling areas. A quirky place but with a beautiful view. Worked great for my wife and I.

The cottage was perfect for our needs. We were close to great beaches and restaurants. we would highly recommend this rental.

The beginning of our tip was great! Until the power went out. We booked this house as they were one of the only places with A/C. However, what they do not say in the description is that you will not have access to the A/C as well as running water once the power goes out. Again, we did not know about the frequent power outages until we got to the house. I want to clarify I am not blaming the property for the power outage, that is on WAPA (the electricity company). However, I am saying that the property had a right to let us know prior or after booking (not when we got there) that the power frequently goes out, and that when it does you have no water or electricity. We were not able to charge phones, make calls or text, shower, cook, wash dishes, and cool off in the A/C after a long day in the heat. While the power was not out our entire trip it was out at one point for a full 24 hours and then 6-8 hours on other days. Again, not the property's fault the power went out, but we would have liked to have been warned before we got to the house. The property is beautiful and in a wonderful location, a generator on the property would go a long way however.
