    We loved Ilios Villa and everyone at Carribean Villa's were awesome. Nice relaxing space and separation of sleeping quarters.

    Very pretty and charming property! Had a great time with family here. Love it! The only thing we wish it could improve is the check in process. It will be much smoother if the greeter knows more about this Villa. It is her first time to get into that villa as well and it took quite a while to figure out things including keys there. Also it will save the time if shampoo and body wash are provided there.

    Adult family of 4 who enjoy cooking were very happy with our stay. St John is perfect if you love the beach, water sports, hiking, and general relaxation. Not much else to do/see there. Villa is a perfect layout for adults with comfortable bedrooms and privacy opportunities. Kitchen was extremely well-stocked with just about everything a cook might need. Entire property indoors and out was ultra clean. Large outdoor space was perfect for getting some sun, outdoor dining, and watching the starts at night. Mosquitos and no-seeums no worse than FL (they were only active for a couple hours around sunset) Nice, deep pool. Very quiet location was a short drive from a few markets and town. Visited 7 different beaches during our stay and found the best snorkeling at Salt Pond Bay. Also would recommend visits to Oppenheimer and Hawksnest if you want to avoid the more crowded Maho (great for turtle sightings, though) and Trunk Bay (snorkel trail is disappointing, but beach is beautiful). Dennis Bay is a great beach but involves a 10 minute or so hike in. If you love authentic Carribean food, try Heading East Bar & Grill about 10 - 15 minute drive from the Villa (heading east, of course). Also loved the BBQ at the very simple but oh so tasty Uncle Joes in Cruz Bay. We tried for a couple higher end places but both had to close before our visits due to staffing/Covid issues. Bought a couple of large, fresh lobsters from just-returning fishermen in Cruz Bay at a great price. Also, found the fresh snapper, grouper, and shrimp to be reasonably priced (think Whole foods) and very, very fresh at Star Market. Availability was inconsistent but worth a try. Outdoor grill worked like a champ for all seafood and fish we cooked. If you go, you won't be disappointed!

    We loved this property! Family of 5 with plenty of space! Loved the layout of the home. Beautiful views of Hart Bay from every space in the villa. Excellent location with easy driving to beaches, hikes, Cruz Bay and Mongoose Junction. The only downfall were the bugs/spiders. But to be expected. Bring plenty of bug spray

    Spacious, gorgeous views, a good kitchen, not far from town -- highly recommended. Two things they might think about if they make any changes -- there is no place to sit outdoors when it is raining, which it did now and again during our stay, so you have to dash inside with your dinner or whatever, and sometimes the weather clears just moments later. Second, there are sun chairs by the pool and rather uncomfortable oaken chairs around the table, but no comfortable chairs for 6 people to sit and chat in for an extended period of time. Plenty of room, though! We would go again despite these observations. It was delightful and we had a wonderful time.

    We were thrilled at our first sight of Ilios house - the pictures do not do it justice. It had just what we were all looking for: a sense of style and charm that felt timeless. It felt like a small compound with 3 separate buildings, a bedroom and bath in each to give complete privacy to everyone. The pool and main living space provided a great space to come together. I would stay again in a heartbeat - I don't think I would even look anywhere else.

    We stayed at Ilios and loved it. We have recommended Ilios Villa to all of our friends and will definitely return. Snorkeling at Trunk Bay and dining at Lucys Restaurant out in Coral Bay was the highlight of our day. Hiking trail to Little Lemeshur was a work out but worth the trip. See you next year!

    My husband and I stayed at Ilios in mid-January for two weeks. We’ve stayed there a number of times over the years—and it gets better and better. A few years ago the kitchen was updated and last year umbrellas were added to the patio, which gets sun throughout the day. Not only are the beds very comfortable, the bedrooms are in separate pods to provide complete privacy for 3 couples. We stayed in the 2nd floor bedroom which has a small deck—perfect for a pre-dinner glass of wine while watching cruise ships that had just departed St. Thomas en route to their next destination. When the surf is up, we’ve enjoyed walking down to nearby Hart Bay to watch the surfers late in the afternoon. Ilios is a 5 minute ride to Cruz Bay so dining out and marketing are very easy, as is access to the North Shore beaches. We hope to return to St. John soon and will certainly plan to stay at Ilios.
