Romantic Hotels in St. Thomas and St. John

This was our third visit to Caneel Bay and we loved every minute of our stay. This was our first visit with our 4 year old son and he was welcomed with the same warm hospitality we enjoyed on our previous visits. Despite being there during a peak period the resort never felt crowded and the staff was very courteous and helpful throughout our stay. The rest of the island is fun to visit but coming back to Caneel Bay at the end of a day adventuring you are reminded how much there is to do and see on property. Already looking forward to a return visit.

From the moment I stepped out of my taxi on arrival to the moment I stepped in to my taxi to leave, Ritz Carlton St. Thomas exceeded my every expectation. The facilities are beautiful as one would expect at any Ritz Carlton resort property, but also impeccably maintained with with no detail overlooked. My room was upgraded from garden view to ocean front, it was very nicely appointed, comfortable and very clean. Every member of the staff that I encountered was exceedingly friendly and helpful. The spa was fabulous, the tennis courts pristine, the pools and beach very clean (and there were more than enough beach chairs!!), the water sports facility had ample boats, etc for rental, and the restaurants were excellent. The hotel has it's own catamaran that is available for rental and also offers sunset cruises daily. This was one of the best resort vacation experiences I have had.

Other reviews had me worried about the year long renovation. I pictured jackhammers waking me each morning and the facility fenced off into a construction project. That was not the case. Outside of temporary water sports trailers and one less restaurant, it was completely unnoticeable. The renovated pool is very nice, and overall no sound of construction. It is a very beautiful place, with nice rooms, and I recommend it in spite of the renovation. Staff was friendly and helpful.

STAFF WAS THE BEST! AIRLINE LOST BAGS THEY WERE VERY HELPFUL! LOCATION THE BEST! FACILITY THE BEST! RESTURANT WAS EXELLENT (LOBSTER RESOTTA IS TO DIE FOR) 3 RD TIME TO ST JOHN; BEEN TO 18 OTHER ISLANDS THIS WAS THE BEST!

Beautiful island and beautiful accommodations :) provides everything you need for a relaxing vacation, close to nature.

Helen and Jun are great hosts. The room is adequate and reasonably priced. Property is simple and neat with nice outdoor areas by the room. Noisy location but quite in the room and great AC. Breakfast was healthy/good and ride to St. Thomas Airport was fun and half the cab fare. Not a hotel but more like staying at a nice person's home.

If you are looking for a relaxing, low-key, tropical vacation, this place is perfect. My boyfriend and I stayed here the other week for 5 days in the Cabana room and both loved it. The view from the room is gorgeous. The staff is friendly and pleasant, especially Sandy. We asked her opinion on best beaches and day trips, which was all very helpful. We loved staying in a cottage with a fully equipped kitchen. Nothin' fancy, but it gets the job done! We went to the Food Center on our first day and bought supplies for breakfast and lunch for the week. Great way for us to stay budget conscious. Secret Harbor beach is beautiful and a very close walk. Coki Beach is also beautiful, but wasn't a huge fan… I just want to read my book and get some sun, not get asked every 5 minutes if I want a drink in a bucket with crazy straws or whatever. I didn't mind at first, but it got to be very irritating. Red Hook and the ferry are close, but the roads aren't really pedestrian friendly. This did result in several overpriced cab rides. (and they charge per person, since when is that a thing?) We didn't find 5 days long enough a trip to rent a car, or else we would have. If you're looking for a day trip, I highly recommend taking the ferry to St John's and going to Hawknest beach. All in all Paradise Cove is a great value. Nice rooms with an amazing view and friendly staff. I've already recommended it to a few friends.

Hubby and I stayed for 11 days at this incredible gem of a Villa. The hosts Leah and Gunnar are not only two of the nicest hosts (without being intrusive) -and the accommodations were wonderful. We stayed in the Cruzan room and woke up to the ocean every day-and slept to the sounds of it every night. The room had a kitchenette that allowed us to make some meals there, which was also nice-in addition to having use of an outside grill to make steaks! The pool was beautiful and we never saw anyone there except for ourselves the entire time we were there. There was absolute privacy and no noise at all. The price was extremely reasonable for "high season" in St. Thomas. Every day the room was cleaned by Leah which was also a nice plus. There is a little hill that leads to a private beach for incredible snorkeling so take some good walking shoes. It is gorgeous! Marabella Suites are also close enough to everything that we needed-nice restaurants, and shopping (yes there are Kmarts not far from there either). We can't say enough good about this place or the hosts-and we will highly recommend it to everyone.

Luv the room space and private location. I will come back to this resort because I need to go back to the private beach for long walks.

We were very pleased with the condition of the property itself, very well kept, but also the cleanliness of the room. This is a very quiet complex.. We really enjoyed the stay.. Restaurants were also very good.
