The Unicorn Villa was absolutely perfect for our vacation to St. John. We enjoyed the pool and the patio views were spectacular. The villa was equipped with everything we could possibly need, and very clean. Would highly recommend!

Amazing!

My wife and I stayed at Unicorn for two weeks. It was our second visit there over the last four years. The villa was recently updated, and we enjoyed the new appliances and look. The view is fantastic. We had a couple small problems, which were quickly addressed by the rental company. This is a perfect villa for couples who enjoy privacy. The roads are a bit tiring with speed bumps galore, but we considered them small annoyances when compared to the setting.

Shawna was very responsive and attentive.

We had a great stay at Unicorn Villa! As frequent visitors to the island, we have stayed in a number of homes, including higher end homes while traveling with other families. This is a high quality house and the drive to town (13 to 15 minutes) isn’t bad if you are willing to sacrifice some convenience for privacy and quietness. The villa renovations from the storm have recently been completed, and the furnishings and appliances were newer and higher quality. There were a few minor things, like a dripping sink in the bathroom, which the manager is addressing. Overall, this house is a great value for those willing to drive 10 minutes to Cruz Bay and 20 minutes to the North Shore beaches. We were not in a rush to go anywhere, so the advantages of the house far outweighed the drive for us.

Pros: Quality of house and furnishings, great view toward south, the cottage is nice and private, private bedrooms, nice bathrooms in bedrooms, quiet neighborhood, quality roads in the neighborhood, strong on-island management company, great overall value

Cons: Easier drive to Cruz than Coral Bay, but more than 10 minutes from town, 20+ minute drive to North Shore beaches, small but refreshing pool, all bedrooms are outside entry, the bed in the cottage is not as nice as the bed in the main bedrooms

Shawna has a lot of St. John knowledge. She is professional and delivers great service. I have dealt with at least ten villa and boat brokers, and she is one of the best I have worked with. We will be calling her soon to discuss next year.

I want to start this review by saying that we are not high maintenance people. However, if I was the owner, I would want to be aware of these things. The best thing about Villa Unicorn is the view. We enjoyed drinking coffee every morning and looking at the view and hearing the waves crash. The villa is nice but needs some updates. The pool and pool area particularly look tired. We also did not like having the bedrooms with outside entrances on the lower level. It was a little frustrating locking and unlocking the bedrooms and having different keys for different doors of the villa. One master key would be nice. There was also some construction on a house being built next door, but thankfully the noise was not horrible. It would have been nice to know of the constructions prior to arrival and given the opportunity to stay some where else if possible. Our greeter for the villa was great and we enjoyed meeting her and hearing her suggestions for the island. We appreciated the beach chairs and umbrella for our use.

Great!
