Dove Cottage is truly amazing. We have been to the Caribbean about a dozen times. The views from the cottage are unparalleled. The location is secluded, private, quiet, and away from distraction. We had never stayed at a property with a saltwater pool before and found it to be an unexpected treat - no chlorine smell, warm and comfortable, and the pool deck is unbelievable.
The property is located on the East End of St John, which is a hefty drive from Cruz Bay and many of the most popular beaches. Coral Bay is closer, and does not have the same amenities but is convenient for a quick necessities run. This is not a bad thing - the location means you will have quiet seclusion without tourists thronging outside of your hotel. It also provides what we found to be the most amazing view on the island bar none - when you see Tortola from the pool deck, you will have difficulty topping it in future adventures. Truly mind blowing.
Jared and the Unique Island Assets team are fantastic. The communication is easy and fluid, they make sure you are well informed, and will quickly address any questions or concerns. They do so without being intrusive - it was well done all around. We also found that our rental car agency and other services on the island were equally friendly and helpful.
We would definitely return to Dove Cottage again, and have recommended it to some of our friends. If you have the privilege to stay here, you will not regret it.
