Island Guide

We’ve lived on St. John for 15 years and these are the places and people we recommend. Click below to discover the best restaurants, car rentals and other services on the island.

 

The Garden of Eden Cottages are located in Coral Bay, on the quiet side of St. John in the US Virgin Islands. Nestled into the Eden Valley, they are the perfect place to just sit back and relax! Minutes from beaches such as Maho, Haulover and Salt Pond, one of the best snorkel spots on the island.

 
 

Restaurants / Bars

These fine dining Restaurants fill up fast under normal times! They are currently operating at 50% occupancy, so please allow me to make reservations for you at least 2 weeks in advance. Email me preferred time windows and dates at gardenofedencottagecollection@gmail.com


Car Rentals

We love supporting local businesses, and that includes car rentals and breweries! The following car companies are all wonderful, and we especially love supporting our Landscaper / Maintenance man Bob’s Brother Slimman and his son Ollie who own and operate newly opened Slimman’s Car Rental and parking. They treat our guests like family! Enter code “GARDEN” when booking and receive a complimentary mixed 6-pack of local beer from world famous St. John Brewers when you arrive at your cottage!


Groceries

After a long day of travel, it can be especially nice to arrive at your cottage with the fridge already stocked with your favorite drinks and snacks delivered by Landlubber Logistics. If you’d rather have dinner ready to pick up on your way to your cottage, Check out Sam & Jack’s Deli, owner Allison will let you know what the delicious weekly specials are!
