St. Thomas hotels

When we arrived at Bluebeard's Castle we were unsure if we had arrived at the right place, being our first time to St.Thomas. Luckily, the front desk clerk Vedora was working and was VERY helpful to us, we felt very welcomed upon arriving. The security on site was a huge relief for me, being in a strange new place and all. The room we had overlooked Charlotte Amalie and the harbor, absolutely stunning views, especially at sunrise and sunset! There are a few restaurants on site that are all affordable and delicious, so you don't have to go into town or order out every night. Restaurant staff is very friendly and helpful as well, be sure to ask them what their specialty dish is at each restaurant. If you haven't stayed before, you should read the hotel's information book in your room. It details how their housekeeping and check out services run, and they're a bit different from everywhere else. Certain villas are cleaned on certain days, but you can still exchange towels and everything else just by calling the front desk. Check out time is 10am sharp. Overall, a wonderful experience and first visit to St. Thomas and the Virgin Islands, will definitely be making plans to come back next year!

We have spent total of 5 nights at BBC villas and were pleastly surprised with how much room we had for our family of 4 (two kids). All was great: clean and maintained, brethtaking view from two balconies, kitchen was handy every morning for breakfasts and beds were comfortable. Our room was on the top floor of the building and very quiet accept for roosters woke us up every morning even though glass doors are sealed tight. It was not bother at all - more of an amusement to kids. We had to change rooms due to time share owners were arriving, but the change was for a better view aniway.

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.

I came to St.Thomas to attend a destination wedding of a family member.Was able to see their ship sail in and leave. Reservation in Pirates Pension,Galleon building,exceeded my expectations.Was a suite with full kitchen,dishwasher,washer/dryer,jacuzzi bathtub,flat-panelled TV in bedroom and living room, and a patio(with table and chairs) overlooking the cruise ship harbor.All in immaculate condition and at less than half the price I had seen listed for other accommodations and resorts on the island - many with mixed reviews.The 4 Pirates Pensions buildings are on the same level,one next to the other midway up the hill. The check-in lobby,and the castle next to it,are at the very top - a steep climb up from the Pensions.A golf cart style vehicle transports you to your accommodation.You can call for it to take you up on check-out at 10am. Two very steep and narrow roads go down from the property. Exiting right from the Pensions goes past a security checkpoint and a piece of highway dangerously close to speeding traffic at the bottom. Continuing down runs to the cruise ship port and its Havensight Mall shops(including a grocery store on the outer side). Exiting left from the Pensions goes down a longer road and to a shady area of town. Tried both roads and would recommend sticking with having the desk call you a cab-they'll send one of the multi-passenger vans with regulated rates.You need to be outside your Pension building to meet them.Dial "O" from your room to get the desk.

The SHBR was a wonderful place to go for rest and relaxation with a beautiful beach and a very friendly staff. The area was safe and cabs were readily available. The food was very good and there was on site snorkeling, paddleboarding, kayaking, scuba lessons, sailing excursions etc available. Red Hook was very close for additional restaurants and bars and ferry rides to neighboring islands. I would certainly recommend this to friends.

Quite enjoyed our stay at Point Pleasant. Rooms were private, with gorgeous balconies overlooking the bay. Well-stocked kitchen facilities, comfy couch, and three massive sliding glass doors provided a lovely ambiance. Free snorkeling gear, and help with reservations, sailing, cruises, etc at the activities desk. I'd highly recommend.

We were really happy with this hotel. The location is gorgeous - it's on the top of the hill and the view from the balcony is amazing. This place was also really close to the airport, in fact, our friends, who didn't have a car the first day, easily walked there from the airport. The hotel manager is a really nice lady, she was super-helpful and wonderful to deal with. We planned to stay there only first night, before taking a ferry to St. John, but then we stayed our last night as well, before flying back.

Our room was perfect. Nice and spacious. Very clean. Loved the pools and beautiful beaches. Great experience.

Warm breezes and warm hospitality. This is a great place to relax in a beautiful setting. Lovely cottages, well maintained. Enjoyed meeting other guests in communal kitchen area. Short walk to incredible beach with two good food vendors on either end of beach. Great recommendation from Deb and Paul for snorkelling/sail trip. Had a great time.
