About this property

Cottage-like West Indie town house. Perfect for two couples or a family!

  • STOWAWAY is a breezy, two‑story island townhouse perfectly suited for two couples or a family seeking space, comfort, and Caribbean charm. Set within Villas on the Upper Deck, an intimate eight‑unit community just above Cruz Bay, it offers easy access to town while feeling peacefully tucked away.

    The main level features an inviting entry foyer, open living and dining areas, a well‑equipped kitchen, laundry, and a convenient half bath. Step outside to the dining deck overlooking the pool, where you can grill, relax, and take in sweeping views all the way to St. Croix.

    Upstairs, two private bedrooms—each with its own bathroom and deck—provide ideal separation and comfort. One bedroom includes a cozy sleeping loft, perfect for an older child.

    Lush gardens, tropical trees, and a newly updated pool create a classic West Indies atmosphere, and the panoramic views make every moment feel like vacation.

Lovely cottage with amazing views. Location is good with quick access to local groceries and down to Cruz bay. Parking was easy with assigned spot for our villa. The arrangement of bedrooms is perfect for our family of 4. Living room and ample deck space made for some fun evening family gametime and relaxation. we largely had the pool to ourselves which was so nice.

As with any property in St John' the drive to the condo can be tricky with steep roads and driveway. Condo offers great views and only 1 mile from Cruz bay. Great communication with host on some power issues that were resolved. Its nice that there is a generator

My husband and 2 teens-18 year old son and 15 year old daughter had a blast at this adorable cottage like town home. There is a pool easily accessible but we hardly used it as we are beach people. Washer and dryer was super handy and kitchen was fully stocked with all the essentials. We loved how the bedrooms were separated so each kid had their own private area with a bathroom. Road getting up to unit is steep so be prepared but fine once up there with a designated parking spot. You cannot beat the incredible view. Marcia was wonderful and easy to get a hold of. Don’t hesitate to book here!

Perfect for families

The view was amazing and this rental was perfect for our family of four. The complex was quiet and private. Plus, the pool and AC units in the bedroom made it an extra comfort stay. Communication with the owner was prompt and she provided tons of ideas and info for us.

Beautiful views, comfortable, a/c was great in sleeping areas. Are every meal on the balcony and never tired of the view. Owner communicated well. The road to get in is very steep but most of the roads on the island are— not bad but noteworthy. Had chickens and kittens for company, the pool was nice and clean.

Wonderful Winter Escape

Stowaway was a great place to stay on St John. It’s a beautiful hilltop property with spectacular views of Cruz Bay and was the perfect space for two couples. The owner provided a lot of helpful information ahead of our arrival and was very responsive. The unit came stocked with bathroom essentials & beach bags, chairs and towels. It was close to Starfish Market for a few groceries (bring your own bags) and town restaurants (5 min drives). Would definitely stay here again.

Great place to stay on St John. Comes stocked with bathroom essentials & beach gear. Owner provided much helpful info ahead of our arrival and was very responsive to any issues that came up once there. Being a two-story unit with stairs, not suitable for anyone with mobility issues. Road up to unit is steep, windy, & not well-marked but the payoff is spectacular views.

The most quintessential St. John cottage!

Book the trip! Just do it. We had the absolute best stay on St. John with our family and our stay cottage made it so perfect. We had all the beach items, a grill for after a long day at the beach, TV to watch our Tigers play baseball and some precious kitties who would visit us. The pool was wonderful for an afternoon dip from our long days snorkeling! Marcia provided us with tips, tricks and all the recommendations for our agenda and stay. Grateful our time on the island and look forward to visiting again soon.

Fantastic Nine Nights at Stowaway at Upper Deck Villa's

I have been vacationing in St. John for 35 years; I must have stayed in 15-20 Villas. Stowaway is one of my favorites. For a single person, two people, or two couples, it is perfect. The view is absolutely fantastic. The interior is lovely, clean, and well-kept. Two fantastic bedrooms upstairs. The Villa is equipped with everything you will need. This property is so convenient for everything. Marcia is a fantastic, helpful, and communicative host. What more can I say than I have already booked for the end of 2024 into January 2025, doubling the time I will be staying.

Amazing stay at the Stowaway

We just returned back from a week long stay at the Stowaway and it was a trip to remember. From the minute we booked, Marcia was incredibly helpful, offering a full list of things to visit and do in St. John. The pictures online don't do this place justice! The views are simply stunning, there are two decks one on each floor. The villa is up a steep hill, very tranquil and quiet. It is a very close drive to town, we would drive in every night and park in a lot. We rented a Bronco in St. Thomas, and drove it over on the ferry as Marcia recommended and it was wonderful advice. We will be back soon and stay here. We had our three young children who really enjoyed the place as well. She has everything and more in stock! It's a great place!

Amazing property and even better owner! Marcia was a dream to work with. She provided us with a wealth of great information about St. John, which was really helpful. She was flexible with our arrival, setting us up with water ahead of time and helping us with our car rental. The property was beautiful, exactly as the pictures showed. We loved it!

This place exceeded my expectations. Lots of space and great views. My only compaint was no screen doors on the bedrooms but that is being taken care in a couple weeks! Can't wait to stay here again in December 2016.

Charming place with beautiful view

The host was wonderful and had lots of great suggestions for snorkeling, eating, beaches etc. the air conditioning in the bedrooms was great and I loved the open plan with incredible views off both the upstairs and downstairs. There was a nice pool but we didn’t use it since we stayed out hiking and snorkeling each day. The drive up was quite steep and I am glad we rented a Jeep . I would definitely stay here again!
