St. John is an expensive place but not so expensive that the cottage prices made sense. However it was an enjoyable stay. St. John’s is a pretty island with beautiful beaches and a great vibe. If it was priced more appropriately for what you get then i would have scored it higher. (honestly these cottages are not worth more than $150/night).
