    Jennifer G from Falls Church, VA recommends this vacation rental

    This is our fourth year on St. John. Second year in a row in Abrigado. The property is absolutely amazing and we would definitely recommend VIVA! Villas. The company had everything ready to go, met us at the dock, worked with the rental car company, etc. The property is in a great location - wonderful views, but close to town as well. We'll be back next year.

      Thanks so much for your feedback. We agree that Abrigado is awesome, the views and location make this home incomparable. We look forward to your return visit to St. John..and to Abrigado! The VIVA Team

    Abrigado was perfect and I cannot think of a single negative thing to say about it. The pool and view are amazing and the newly built house is top notch. From the furnishings to the decor, art, and fixtures you can tell that every detail was thought through.
    The pictures of this house do not do it justice and we certainly plan on many return visits. Additionally, the staff at Viva were outstanding. They made the booking process easy, obviously took good care of the property, and helped us plan a perfect vacation.

    Villa Abrigado had not changed since our stay last year! It was just as incredible. The engineers in our family are impressed with the architecture, water filtration system, generator, level driveway, and thoughtful planning in designing this home :-). The ladies of the family love the tile, well-equipped kitchen, infinity pool, beautiful decor, and convenience of the amenities :-). The stunning views impressed all. We look forward to returning to this home away from home in paradise!

    a guest from Victor, NY recommends this vacation rental

    This property is a jewel. We found everything from the design of home, its upkeep and amenities, our interaction with the property management, the kindness of the maintenance people combined to make our vacation carefree.

    But ssshh! We don't want too many people to know about it - just like the rest of St John.


    We found that the guests before us had broken a few things that we noted on our arrival and tour of the property. Viva got right on it and fixed what was necessary for our stay.

    Villa Abrigado was a perfect fit for our family of 5 adults. The home is exquisite....from the fully equipped kitchen to the water filtration system, nothing was missing. The villa was beautifully decorated and it is obvious that lots of thought and planning went into the construction of this home.
    Our VIVA! greeter, Gyasi, was thorough and professional. The rental agency also made arrangements for our car rental and mid-week cleaning services.
    After several visits to STJ, we have found a villa that is a "home away from home" and we will definitely rent again.

    • Manager Responded on 7/26/2010

      Thank you for your feedback. The Abrigado owners took lots of time in choosing the theme for Abrigado. We're happy to see and hear that the villa's guests are enjoying the amenities therein. It's our pleasure to have the opportunity of being your hosts during your stay. We look forward to your trip back "home"! The VIVA Team!

    This was our second year to stay at Abrigado and it felt like we were "coming home". The home is beautiful, comfortable, and has all the amenities to make anyone's stay on St. John a wonderful memory. If the Lord makes it possible, we plan to come back.

    • Manager Responded on 7/21/2010

      Abrigado means "nestled" or "sheltered" and that is the experience that many guests who has had the opportunity of staying there has had. We certainly are honored to have assisted with your vacation experience and look forward to the opportunity of being your hosts on your next visit "home". The VIVA! Team
