When we travel, we prefer to find places more "away" from the crowds and high-rises. This VRBO at Mampoo Place delivers. The sounds of the ocean, the views all day (and even sometimes at night!) The seashells, iguanas, hermit crabs, and marine life were all fantastic. I was nervous about the iguanas "visiting" but they stayed in their tree and were delightful entertainment. We stayed as a last family vacation with all of our 4 children still "in the nest" and my mama heart stuffed a million memories in with so many smiles! The mosquitoes are nothing to mess with here! They were violent little suckers (and I was born and raised in MN lakes country where they get to be the size of small birds!) Moral of the story; USE THE JUNGLE JUICE. We also had issues with sugar ants, but with an open-air concept like Mampoo Hill, it would be silly to complain, I just think a warning is due that if you don't want to share your snacks with critters of all sizes, shapes, and forms, then you should keep all opened foods in airtight containers, the fridge, or freezer and do your dishes promptly after eating. Taking out the trash daily is doubly recommended for the same reasons (we never left garbage to find out, but I wholeheartedly believe ANYTHING left out could bring in uninvited guests!) The people, the history, the water, and EVERYTHING about this island is magical. I have NEVER had my stress melt away like our two weeks here and I pray we can make it back again.

Our stay was amazing. When you walk in it’s open and has many chairs and sitting areas to check out the beach. Beach was beautiful, it is a rocky one so I recommend bringing good shoes in your bags. They provided us with everything included snorkeling gear. The bugs are definitely present, but they were kind enough to provide us with a great bug repellent, make sure to lather up. The iguanas were great company and fun to watch. Everything was so easy to get to, I definitely recommend you renting their jeep, it made the trip so much more convenient and much less pricey than renting at the airport. Everyone I talked to was responsive very quickly and accommodating. The people in general all around were just so kind.

Mampoo Hill is our home away from home!
The house, which is old St. John in all the best ways, is also completely updated with comfy living room furniture, the best beds and a kitchen that literally has everything you need and then some. We love the outdoor shower and the hot tub. This is our fourth stay at Mampoo Hill and the welcome home we fet from everyone is truly a joy. Kaspers Jeep is the best deal on the island and gets us everywhere we want to go. So many people mention the mosquitos, which are admittedly annoying around sunset. But, judicious use of repellent works for us. Besides, its the tropics and bugs are part of the ecosystem. Thank you, Candy and Bill, for naking your home available so that, when we come home to STJ, we're really at home!

Perfect! Beautiful House--Amazing Location!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Mampoo Hill. The outdoor living space was perfect. Everything was exactly as described. The photos do not do it justice. The house was well-stocked, communication was great. The only thing to mention is that there aren't curtains on the bedroom windows, so it gets bright very early. By 6:30ish we were up because of the sunlight. So if you like to sleep in or take naps, then bring a sleep mask. But in saying that, we'd come back in a heartbeat!

The property is right on a rocky/shell beach and excellent snorkeling is 200 yards away. The views are world class. The soothing sounds of the Caribbean are ever present. The home is an architectural wonder and blends into the beautiful Mampoo Hill. Depending on your mood, you could spend all your time at the house or drive 10 minutes to enjoy the great restaurants and bars in Cruz Bay. All of the wonderful sights and beaches on St. John are within 20-30 minutes. Great Place!!!

Satisfy my soul
Mampoo Hill is a slice of heaven. Upon arriving and walking into the Carribean style open air home we immediately were mesmerized by the breathtaking ocean views. The air moved through the spaces with the breeze and sun radiated the two decks in the late afternoon. The living room and kitchen spaces are open air but each bedroom is private and comfortably appointed. We loved all the artwork by the owner displayed throughout. We woke early each morning to the sounds of the waves caressing the stoney beach, enjoyed breakfast on the deck and finished each evening under the stars in the hot tub. There could not have been a more peaceful way to start and finish each day. We made sure to make it back for late afternoon sunsets with a glass of champs to finish off a beautiful beaching, hiking, paddle boarding and snorkeling excursion. We even spent a couple days doing nothing at all but relaxing in place, fishing from the rocks and exercising on the beach. It was just perfect. We did need to be proactive and keep the bedroom door closed at all times to avoid any bugs from entering. We kept the ceiling fans circulating for constant air flow and minimize moving mosquitoes, it worked perfect. The added value of the jeep rental from the owners was appreciated. The wash/dryer was a plus. The home was well stocked in the kitchen, with plenty of towels and linens. A bonus for us was an in villa couples massage. The set up was perfect, with the sun setting and the breeze coming through the living room while the therapists worked in each of us!! To say the least, we enjoyed every aspect! We are looking to rebook for next year… already

Enjoy Your Own Private Paradise
This was the PERFECT place for our group of 2 couples. Well-designed for island time with two split bedrooms and an open air kitchen & common space. Amazing views of Little St. James & St. Thomas. Short drive to Cruz Bay. Well-stocked kitchen with great selection of cookware. Owners also provide plenty of equipment for beach activities! Pro Tip #1: Pour a glass of your favorite beverage & enjoy a front row seat to the breathtaking sunset every evening. Pro Tip #2: Keep your windows open to breathe in the ocean air as the breaking waves lull you to sleep. Unexpected highlights: Iguanas & crabs are plentiful. So fun to watch!

Beautiful House--Amazing Location
We have a great week at Mampoo Hill. The house is incredible. We enjoyed being so close to the beach, loved the hot tub, and made very good use of Candace's Jeep (as an add-on the house rental). We couldn't have been happier. In response to other reviews, we were there for a week from Christmas to New Years and didn't have any issues with mosquitos or other bugs. We were expecting them but never needed to break out the bug spray. The caretakers were responsive to questions and easy to communicate with. The house was well-stocked and comfortable. And the setting on the beach is so peaceful and lovely. We'll be back!

A clean and well maintained property at a wonderful location was our base for an enjoyable experience in St John. We loved the beach and enjoyed snorkeling. The local manager met us at the ferry and guided us home and familiarized us with the property. He answered questions and gave us advice for the week. All equipment worked and we specially enjoyed the views and the spa. The local pets visited each day and added to our experience. The home was ecologically friendly and just right sized for our group of 5. Everything was close by and beaches a short drive away.

Great location home on St. John
First of all, this house is located in a beautiful area and designed in a way that was so extraordinary. We waited over 6months to be able to stay in this home as the ratings were 5-star and reading all the wonderful comments. We enjoyed our stay and would like to return. However, I do believe in transparency to others who are looking for a place to stay in St. John, VI. I would like to share some things that may or may not affect others' decisions about staying here. Unfortunately, we had difficulty in contacting Jennifer and Craig Troisi before arriving to the home. Somehow, 2 emails that we sent to her regarding flight information was not received. Jennifer did apologize later after another email and phone text were sent. Upon arriving to the airport, Craig was called several times to notify him upon landing and time of arrival. He was not easily contacted for whatever reason. He, also apologized. I think the following information would be handy to know before-hand regarding the jeep rental. We would rent from Craig and Jennifer again, but know that their jeep is NOT located at the home. It is kept at a jeep rental/parking lot right outside the ferry landing at St. John's called "Slim Man's". We didn't realize this and it made for an extremely frustrating traveling day. Craig did meet us there and helped us home to get situated. He left without giving us information about the location of keys, but fortunately, the bug spraying man who let himself in the next morning, told us where they were located. If you are looking for high-end accommodations and appliances, this is not for you. The main reason behind the home's design is to experience the outdoor beauty and the indoor/outdoor house appeal is super cool! However, the outdoor weather and sea air does not allow for stainless appliances to be kept in mint condition. Therefore, most appliances (including coffee pot) were very outdated and could be replaced. The washer and dryer provided were a nice treat, but again, the washer made horrible noises and both were quite dated. Also, the smaller bedroom ceiling was full of cobwebs. Lastly, the listing says there is a beach/sandy entry to the right of the water. It's all rocks and full of sea urchins. After all of this, the good outweighed the negative. Most of these things listed are such minor things. We enjoyed our stay and highly recommend this beautiful home. We would love to be back.

Many Positives and a Few Significant Negatives
Positives: The ocean view from the house is stunning and the layout was perfect for our family of two adults and two teenage daughters. The support staff, Jennifer and Craig, could not have been more helpful including getting us from the ferry to the house-Jeep, showing us the way to the house while pointing out essential accommodations (grocery store, gas station, where to drop off our garbage on a daily basis), and responding to texts when we had a few questions. The bathrooms and storage areas are spacious. The hot tub was fun when we could use it (see below) and the location of the house was easily accessible to Cruz Bay, the wonderful beaches and the grocery stores. The house is nestled away in a beautiful spot and some of the wildlife (the iguanas and bananaquits) were a source of wonder and amusement. Negatives: THE MOSQUITOS - the mosquitos were omnipresent in the morning and from 4 pm thru the evening and forced us inside despite high doses of the house-supplied deet. Two of the days, the mosquitoes were present most of the day. Two floor fans or screened-in area would have allowed us to enjoy the beautiful view from the deck, but instead we were stuck in our bedrooms for significant periods of time every day of our visit. A tall oscillating fan or a ceiling fan would make the hot tub more inviting. Craig warned us to keep any food covered up in the kitchen because a pearly-eyed thrasher took full advantage of the open-air layout of the house and would eat anything that was laying out. This proved to be quite an understatement. We stored every food item, but still fell victim to the incredibly audacious bird who would watch us eat from the railing and swoop down and take food from our plates or from dirty dishes in the sink if we left them unattended for even a moment. Even an unopened bag of almonds that we had taken out of the fridge for a few minutes was poked open. It was comic and annoying to be constantly shooing the bird away. Finally, the access point to swim in Devers Bay was further away than we expected and proved to be more than 100 yards away over a rocky shoreline.

Best Stay in St. John
Mampoo Hill is a beautiful, open-air home located on scenic Dever’s Bay. Amazing views await at this gem tucked on the bay among vegetation and wildlife. We enjoyed the amenities of modern living with a true island experience.

This is our 3rd time staying at Mampoo Hill and we now feel like we're coming home, especially with the welcome from Craig. This house is such a wonderful place, providing a welcome respite from the mass of tourists on the island. A slice of old St. John, Mampoo Hill is where we go when the beaches get too crowded.

Perfect Vacation Home
I brought my 15 and 12 year old daughters for a girls-only trip and we all absolutely LOVED this house. The views are incredible, the sounds of the ocean, the breeze, everything - we could not have been happier. The "beach" (rocks, no sand) is easily accessible and we loved walking it and finding shells and tons of hermit crabs and other creatures. Bedrooms were nice sized and each had a bathroom, AC worked great, beds were very comfy. Kitchen was well appointed & they have beach chairs, beach towels and other beach items you can use when you go to the beach! The ability to rent her Jeep was amazing - no standing around waiting like all the other suckers when they get off the ferry. Just wonderful. we Loved it. DEFINITELY bring LOTS of bug spray. The mosquitos ate us alive (visited mid-April) but we didn't even care (too much). I can't wait to stay here again. Just perfect.

Open air, loud waves, great sun but lots of mosquitos
I rate Mampoo Hill a B+ I’ve been going to St John for close to 20 years. I’ve stayed in all diff villas. This was a very diff exp as it’s completely open in the living area. Beautiful, and crashing waves all day and even louder it felt at night. We loved the concept but we did not like the mosquitos as soon as the sun starts to sink at 4:30-5. We had to put high concentrated deet on. The ceiling fans did help but a floor fan would have been great to keep them off our legs. Not really able to go swimming at this bay from your beach but we did get to a sm place at the end to snorkel. Tricky! If your not stable on your feet I would advise it. Loved the incredible view from the decks!! Mesmerizing!!! The bedrooms were clean however one much bigger than the other! Not able to see from pictures. No biggy as we only sleep in them but if you want to get away from mosquitos you have to go into larger bedroom and hang out. Craig our manager was not available for the 11 days we were there accept to show us the way after finally finding our jeep at the correct slims parking lot and after calling and leaving a message and a text he finally called at the airport. No information as to were to leave the owners rented jeep. Ended up leaving it at a parking lot at 5:30 am as we had to catch the 6am ferry. Not a big deal but the microwave died midway the vacation. Tried to tell Craig but no response. I know how St. John rolls and we did not expect a new one. Over all the place was clean and had everything we needed. Not sure if this will remain posted cause when we were looking at reviews of mampoo there wasn’t much said about mosquitos and that might have deterred us. Alas, we love St John and have a wonderful time as usual!! Lastly, if you want to go out to eat make resi before you even go on Vaca!! Very crowded due to covid and not alot of help at restaurants.

Mampoo Hill-a beachfront house on Chocolate Hole Bay
Mampoo Hill is a very secluded, island beach house. Make sure you plan to arrive in daylight as the hilly, winding roads are challenging @ night. We met Craig @ Slim Man Parking Lot and picked up our blue Jeep (available to rent from owner Candace). We followed Craig to our island retreat. Some difficulty getting check-in final directions until 10AM the day of arrival (we were already in the air) and our email did not download immediately on arrival. The house is open design concept. Store any food products (breads especially either in the cabinets or refrigerator as the birds will peck at the plastic wrappers. Kitchen has toaster oven, coffee maker and all pots/pans one wants while on vacation. The Weber grill was easy to operate. When taking your outdoor shower check for horned lizards, etc before stepping out. Breath taking views of Chocolate Hole Bay and sunset. Wonderful hot tub. Is it possible to ask property managers to buy basic groceries prior to arrival? Flight delays caused us to arrive in the dark with no food.

This place is a GEM!!
This place is AMAZING!! My first word when I stepped in the house was " OMG". House is is so open, view is amazing, just breath taking. House is clean, well decorated, (I love Ms. Kasper's Painting), kitchen has all utensil you need and the Weber grill. Beds are very comfortable, the air conditioners kicks in right away. We just sat on the lounge chair listening the ocean sound, sunset is gorgeous, we gaze stars at night... The house is very secluded so nobody or nothing to bother you, We snorkel a couple of times around other end of the beach, we saw nursing shark, school of squids, one turtle and tons of colorful fish. Less than 10 min to Cruz bay, supermarkets and 15-25 minutes to major beaches. Communication with the local caretaker Craig and Jennifer was great, and We recommend to rent a jeep which comes with the house. Craig met us at the parking by ferry station, drove the Jeep, and drop off the Jeep at the same parking when we left. Super convenient! I just love love love this place.

Fantastic stay at Mampoo Hill!
I echo many of the other reviewers in saying that the entire Mampoo HIll experience was tremendous. The property itself is gorgeous and ideally situated. We really enjoyed the house's open design and of course, took full advantage of its oceanfront location with morning snorkel sessions. It only takes 7-8 minutes to drive into Cruz Bay with supermarkets and gas stations along the way, and only 15-25 minutes to all northern beaches. Candy, the owner, was a delight to work with leading up to our trip, while Craig and Jennifer - the local caretakers - were always available to answer any questions we had during our stay. Perhaps the biggest plus? The Jeep. Take advantage of the Jeep rental that comes with the house! Not only did we not have to deal with the hassle of a rental agency, but the Jeep was also dropped off for us steps from the ferry. Our arrival couldn't have been more pleasant. Five stars all around!

Island Dream at Mampoo
Mampoo was the most peaceful place we’ve ever stayed. The open living space made us truly aware of nature and the birds and friendly iguanas that came to visit every day. We loved hearing the sound of the ocean constantly rolling in the background. Definitely rent the Jeep. It was so handy to run around the beautiful island. We cooked in several nights and made full use of the well supplied kitchen. Grocery store is close by and we’ll stocked. Check-in and out was easy with property managers Jennifer and Craig. They even helped us get supplies for our first night in ST J so we could stay in and enjoy the house. I highly recommend Mampoo Hill to anyone wanting to escape into island life. It’s beautiful inside (the owner’s artwork is gorgeous) and out. Hoping to go back again soon.

What an amazing stay at this hidden treasure!
What can I say that has not been said about this amazing house? The location is incredible. You really are just steps from the water. The house is unlike any place we have stayed at before, Open concept is a whole new meaning. We particularly enjoyed the rain. Being outside but inside at the same time and hearing the rain, the waves and the wind is a relaxation that is hard to find. The bedrooms are wonderful and the bed we slept in was very comfortable. I did love the pillows and now want one for myself. Loved the outdoor shower in the evenings. We watched very little t.v and instead found ourselves sitting on the deck watching natures big screen each evening. The kitchen has everything and the Weber grill they have works perfect and helped me to cook several meals for us. We were there during hurricane season so several places on the island were closed and we did not mind at all. The house feels very secluded but a short drive to town and a great little grocery store called Dolphin where you can get everything you need. The jeep Candace rents is in great shape and is a must if you want to explore. It is also so much easier to pick up and drop off than other rental places. Craig met us at the ferry and showed us to the house and took the time to explain everything to us and Jennifer was always available if we had any questions. If you like a resort stay do not come here. If you want an experience in island living in a serene, comfortable, secluded and totally relaxing stay than there is probably NOT a better place than Mampoo Hill. Thank you Candace for sharing your beautiful house with us and making our vacation such a wonderful experience filled with fantastic memories!

Loved our stay at Mampoo Hill! The home was very clean upon arrival, and was well-appointed. We had everything we needed. Appreciate the coolers and beach chairs available for guests to use for any outings during the stay. The property is relatively secluded. Nicely landscaped walk from the house down to the beach. The owners were great about communication and helpful with coordinating our check-in process after a long day of travel - which is part of the adventure of traveling to St. John.

This property was absolutely fantastic! We loved the view. The hosts were fantastic to work with and accommodated us in a very well maintained open air house. 5-star from us.

A wonderful getaway experience for my wife and I to celebrate our 25th anniversary!
We enjoyed our stay tremendously! The open air feel of the house, the gorgeous ocean views from the back of the house, the night sounds along with the constant surf crashing into the rocky shore, the friendly birds, lizards, & iguanas....it was a wonderful, unique experience! Definitely get the jeep!

Honeymoon
We absolutely loved this property for our honeymoon! It was secluded but everything you need is just minutes away. We loved having coffee in the morning and watching the boats go out of the bay. Sunsets were amazing. The home definitely gives you the island feel from the minute you walk in. The artwork was perfect. We would definitely recommend getting the Jeep. We are hoping to go back every year for our anniversary.

Loved This Beautiful Island Home !
Loved Loved this Island home, the open concept was incredible! It’s wonderfully peaceful, listening to the crashing waves at night was so soothing. Gorgeous views. Craig & Jennifer were terrific ! definitely rent the Jeep, so much to explore on St John! Driving on those steep hills is quite the adventure, especially having to remind myself to stay on the left! Really appreciated the beach chairs! We had perfect weather, bugs were not an issue! Iguanas came out every morning to say Hi! Traveled with my 2 daughters (13&18) and 2 of my older daughters friends. the bedrooms were perfect for our party! Beautiful Stay!! Only downside is we had to leave, will be back !

Property was lovely, right on the ocean!
If you are looking for a little rest and relaxation this is the place for you! The crash of the ocean waves will lull you to sleep. Close to grocery stores and beaches

I don't ever want to leave.
What an amazing property. The perpetual sound of the waves against the rocky shore is so soothing. Perfect sunsets every night. Close enough to town yet world's away. Only negative is the mosquitos. Hard to be outside without being covered in spray to keep them at bay. Would love to be able to come back and stay again.

One of the best stays possible on St. John
This is a beautiful and well designed home with lot's of privacy, open floor plan and beautiful views. The art and beauty touches within the home are almost a match for the insanely beautiful view right over the ocean. Calming sea sounds through the night. What a joy! The hosts could not have been better, the jeep associated with the property is a real bargain. The property itself is secluded, quiet, and puts you beautifully at one with nature. The only pests are the persistent birds who really want to enjoy your fruit as well. Very highly recommended.

Heaven on Earth!
Amazing ocean view! Beautifully decorated. Meticulously clean. Comfortable furnishings. We fell asleep to sound of the ocean on the breezy nights. The nights with no breeze, we did break down and turned the air on but we could still hear the ocean. The sunsets were stunning. Quiet neighborhood but only a short drive to Cruz Bay. Definitely get the Jeep! It made things so much easier. We used the Crown Bay Marina ferry and it was super easy. Craig met us at the dock and took us to the house and showed us around. He was extremely helpful and also made things easy. Yes, there are mosquitoes but if you use the Jungle Juice, you’ll be fine. The worst part about this house is that we had to leave it. Looking forward to staying again next year.
