We had a wonderful time staying at Papaya Villa, The Hills, St. John, USVI.
Our Villa had everything you need for our stay and Guest Services was most helpful with assisting in provisioning and various recommendations for getting around the island.

The Hills is a great place to stay when in St John. They had all the amenities of a resort with the privacy of a Villa. I would definitely return to The Hills.

Nicole and Carly did a fantastic job helping to plan our trip. We are a large group of 20 traveling together. They helped us with reservations and restaurants. We were concerned about weather delays affecting our arrival and Nicole was very prompt to help. She followed up with our group and was ready to help if we had any issues.

Best family vacation for us! Not only is the island beautiful and safe the home was more than we could ask for! Beds were very comfy, linens great, kitchen appliances and amenities were just like home. Loved the beach chairs (may need replacing soon) and cooler that we used daily! Carrie was wonderful and available for whatever questions or referrals we needed. Hope to be back soon!!!!

I own a vacation rental and have stayed at many, many vacation rentals. This is by far one of the nicest places I have stayed. The management was superior. We had a problem with a key that wouldn't work and it was taken care of, on a Sunday afternoon, immediately! Everything we needed was there. Beautiful property!

FABULOUS!

I have visited many islands in the Caribbean, and I can say that my stays at the property (on St. John) were terrific. I have been there twice with groups of friends for long weekend getaways to escape the NYC winter. The villas are beautiful, clean, comfortable, and spacious. They sit high on a hill with stunning views of the town, harbor and ocean. The quaint island allows for a variety of activities. You can hang out at the beautiful beaches, hike on nature trails, swim with sea turtles, go boating, or even a visit the BVIs for the day. In the evening the local bars are fun, lively and laid back, but I enjoy just returning to a quiet villa, high on the hill, to enjoy a quiet evening soaking in the view. The island feels safe, and the staff is friendly and helpful. I will definitely be coming back!!

Paradise?!

My time at the villa was exactly what I was looking for. Relaxing days at the pool, beautiful views from the house, and great space for a large group of friends. I’m in the process of convincing my family to make it our next family vacation…”
