Cocotier

Overall we greatly enjoyed Cocotier and thought it was a beautiful rental. Probably the best view we've seen in our eight trips to St. John. Pool was great, kitchen well equipped. We were a little surprised by the layout -- even though we'd read the full description and all of the reviews, we weren't aware that the bedrooms were all "pods" -- opening only to the exterior by the pool. So the only access to the kitchen and living area is by going outside first. Our kids were old enough to be off in their own pods so it was fine, but families with young children who wouldn't want them sleeping in a separate unit should be aware. It also meant a lot of opening and closing patio doors and/or screen doors just to move between rooms.

The beach chairs were very rusty (but I know with the sea and salt and humidity it must be hard for them to last long). The blender in the kitchen also turned out to have a rusted-off blade, unfortunately, and was not usable.

...Destination St. John was extremely helpful and quick to respond with all questions, excellent management company! We can't wait to book again for another vacation in paradise!!!!

...The management company (Destination St. John) is always a pleasure to work with.

...The property managers were great. Destination St. John rep met us at dock, and showed us around, and the office promptly answered a few questions we had. They even left a wonderful basket of goodies for us to enjoy on our arrival. We will be back! Thank you Destination St John!

...The folks at Destination St. John were helpful as always. Can't wait to go back!

...We also appreciated the Destination St. John staff welcoming us and being helpful. We hope to be back again next year!

...We've used Destination St. John many times to rent on St. John and cannot wait to do it again! -truly!

...My expectations were far exceeded by the incredibly generous hospitality of Leslie and the team at Destination St. John. There was a special hositality basket with delicious treats.

...Destination St. John was easy to work with and our greeter did a great job of getting us settled. We also enjoyed the basket of snacks left in the fridge. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this property at all!

...We highly recommend using the management company Destination St. John to rent this Villa, we have used them for the past 8 years and they are simply the best!!!

...We rented through Destination St John both times and they are professional, friendly, curtious and a pleasure to work with. Thank you Kelly for making both of our stays amazing.

...The staff at Destination St. John were very nice, accommodating, and quick to respond to our (literally) last minute request. They had the villa cleaned & ready the next day, with a staff member ready to meet us & show us to the villa...they even put a very nice welcome basket of food/snacks in the refrigerator. Another villa rental company sent me a rude email saying they were too busy to schedule a cleaning service...I'm so glad we stayed with DSJ...Great service!...I plan to use them exclusively in the future.

...Destination St John was excellent to work with. We enjoyed the welcome basket after a very long day of travel.

...The Destination St. John website was very informative and well put together, we knew exactly what to expect and couldn't wait to get there.

...Hope to return someday and visit the beautiful island again. And we would contact Destination St. John for accomodations again.

...We've been using Destination St. John for the last 6 years for villas and couldn't be more pleased....This Company is the BEST and so are all their employees, they take care of any need/question you may have 24/7.
