"The condo was beautiful. Clean, beautiful ocean view. The property was great- 3 pools and 2 restaurant/ bars which were excellent. As good or better than any others that we went to.
Our host Chris was exceptional. She urged us to rent a car which really was a must due to the terrain and in order to visit the many beaches and other areas. She was also super helpful with ideas of places to visit and restaurants. "

"We were so fortunate to have found this beautiful timeshare at the Ritz-Carlton Club Residence. We stayed in a 3 bedroom/ 3 1/2 bath residence that was very clean and most importantly it was a much welcomed air conditioned place. The pools were so nice and clean and right outside our place. The beach was well maintained and clean of seaweed. The staff at the Club were very welcoming and helpful. The in-room service and housekeeping were great! It truly was like a home away from home.

"Host booked the wrong date at the resort and was totally unresponsive when we contacted him about the issue. Left us stranded at the airport in St Thomas. We had to pay 1900 to get a room for one night. Still have not heard from the host with an explanation or apology."

"We turned to Vacation Candy at the last minute when we realized our passport had expired and we couldn't travel abroad. What a find! The Ritz in St. Thomas is amazing. Excellent staff and service you expect from the Ritz. Beautiful, comfortable facilities. Lots to do whether you stay on the property or go exploring. Be sure to visit St. Johns. Wonderful trip. Can't wait to go back."

"The Condo was clean, large, and well-appointed. It was a 3rd floor corner unit and we had excellent views and a nice breeze at all times. Beach and pool were both very, very nice. Our family of 6 were very comfortable in the accomodations. We will definitely stay here our next time on St. Thomas."

"The staff was friendly and helpful. The room was nice, with a great view of the bay. The patio and pool areas were beautiful. It all fell apart at bedtime. The constant noise from cars and motorcycles racing down the street - (setting off car alarms) kept us awake until 2 AM. Our friends stayed on the opposite side of the hotel and the music from a nearby wedding was so loud the couldn't sleep. I realize this isn't the hotel's fault, but it is a reality. Maybe just don't stay here Friday our Saturday night?"
"The sit-down breakfasts were great and the server was exceptional. The attached restaurant is also very good. The staff were friendly, courteous, and outstanding. The rooms were adequate but not outstanding. We had repeated difficulties getting hot water in the rooms we rented. The staff was responsive but the repairs were not successful."
"I honestly wasn’t sure what to expect, as my family had done most of the research, but was pleasantly surprised. We had a two room suite, and it was really clean and well maintained. The only downside side is that both bathrooms are upstairs, and be prepared for lots of stairs to get around! The facility offers shuttles to get you around, so if you don’t mind waiting for a shuttle, they will haul you around. Pools were great, and the seaweed didn’t bother us. Other beaches would be better anyway even without the seaweed.
A common theme that we found is that some staff and locals are rude and impolite. After one visit to the Margaritaville Coffee Shop, we didn’t go back. Some were super friendly, and really made us feel welcome, though!
Overall, I really enjoyed my stay, and would recommend the resort!"
"This place was awesome. Cannot wait to go back. Everything was top-notch. From the room to the front entrance. absolutely beautiful took my wife there for her birthday."
"Loved this hotel and would stay there again without hesitation. Fun, funky hotel with a spectacular view, from both the room and the onsite restaurant. Complimentary breakfast was good. Complimentary beverage at check-in. Really enjoyed staying here."
"Beautiful view about a mile up the “hill” from Magens Bay-comfortable room, pool, coffee shop for easy breakfast runs before venturing out-easy access to island in any direction -and cat sanctuary so lots of friends roaming"
