General Information


More photos

What to expect: This St. Thomas resort is popular with travelers spending a night or two, with families and couples seeking moderately priced holidays on a Caribbean beach, and with groups flying in for beachside weddings. Its location offers tropical tranquility as well as easy access to Charlotte Amalie's duty-free shopping, dining, nightlife, and commercial offices two miles away.

Amenity highlights: In front of the Best Western Emerald Beach Resort, a 300-yard beach curves along Lindbergh Bay on the southern, Caribbean Sea side of St. Thomas. Calm, turquoise water laps the light-colored sand, providing safe swimming and snorkeling opportunities. Above the beach, the hotel's freshwater swimming pool features a rock garden and waterfall. Palm trees and flowers bring bright tropical color to a small sundeck around the pool.
