Can’t beat the view :-)

First time to the Virgin Islands and we could not have picked a better place to stay…Mary is a wonderful hostess with extensive knowledge of the Islands that she will share. Nothing better in the morning than a cup of coffee and that balcony view. Highly recommend!

Bedside View of Paradise

The property and it’s ocean-view are so beautiful, that you will have to force yourself out to explore the other natural beauties of the island!! Our host (Mary) treated us like old friends from day one!!

Amazing Stay!

LOVED staying here! It had that at home feel and vacation getaway, which can be a hard balance to accomplish, but they got it just right! The villa and surroundings are beautiful, and it's so reasonably priced. Mary the host had everything we needed and was so kind and welcoming . Great communication and accommodations, my only regret is I couldn't stay longer! Highly recommend spending your St. Thomas vacation here.

Amazing & Perfect Location

My husband & I loved coming home each night to relax on the huge back deck overlooking Megans Bay. Even though the days were hot on the island it was always nice & cool on the deck with the breeze. There is an air conditioner in your personal room to turn on at night. Mary cooked us breakfast each morning. I loved her omelettes!! The room was big. Mary thought of everything. We are so glad we stayed here. Location - it is central to a lot of things on the island. Bonus, you cannot beat the view over Megans Bay - incredible! It’s a little off the beaten path from the main road, but like I said, it is central to so much on the island. You will not be disappointed with your stay at this property. I am picky & very clean. This property is 5 stars in my book.

We’re still dancing!

Mary’s place and hospitality were heaven sent!! Highly recommend for peace and relaxation. A quick drive to the beaches in any direction of the island! Rent a car, secluded is the word of the day😉

beautiful bnb villa

Stayed here for a week with my fiance and it was an incredible stay! The villa is exactly as pictured, Mary was very helpful and flexible during our stay with recommendations and flexibility, and we especially loved hanging out on the massive balcony to take in the views, breeze, salty ocean smell, and sun. Would 100% come back and highly recommend!! Only good-to-know for future travelers is the road to get to her house is long and windy with some steep inclines. Parts of the road are concrete road while other parts are gravel while other parts are dirt. We were grateful to have a jeep for it, though another couple staying there seemed fine with a standard midsize vehicle.

Amazing

Mary’s property is absolutely amazing, she is a great host, easy to communicate with. We loved the fantastic views over the gallery sleeping to the sound of the surf and breeze, it made our trip as relaxing and enjoyable as we were wishing to be. We absolutely recommend Mary’s property.

Let me begin with this - Mary is great person and it only reflects the kindness and beauty of the island life we all mainlanders can imagine. It was surreal as a kid and to come back as an adult and be as intrigued now says a lot. I'm not a touristy person and it's great that I met Mary and her place for a brief moment to meet locals even through New Years, it will be as memorable as when I first visited as a child. Will definitely visit again now that I zipped around the island in a car and was treated with nothing but respect and warmth as I expected island life must bring.

Wonderful spot for a peaceful getaway.

Beautiful property with a wonderful interior, large rooms, king-size beds, nice bathrooms and great patios overlooking the ocean. Mary was a wonderful host and made us a fabulous breakfast each morning. The only drawback is the somewhat treacherous road you have to drive on to get there, but it was well worth it to us to have such a secluded and wonderful place to stay. We would definitely stay there again if and when we get back to St. Thomas.

WOW! The Dancing Orchid was beautiful and just what my wife and I were looking for. The home is brand new, beautifully designed and perfectly situated on a jungle hillside overlooking Megan's Bay. The photos are very accurate, but they can't capture the full beauty of the experience. Mary keeps the place immaculately clean! We were there there for 5 days in February and temps were 72-82 with lovely cool breezes. We enjoyed the huge verandas and we left the windows and doors open every night for perfect sleeping. You could hear the waves crashing on the rocks below. Mary is delightful, professional and engaging, but she is very keen to only be as involved as the visitor prefers. She made wonderful breakfasts, gave us great island advice and recommendations and told us all about growing up on the island. She was very accommodating to special requests. Her sweet dog Sophie won our hearts too. If you are looking for a very quiet, peaceful, restful, beautiful out-of-the-way place that is just a short drive to anywhere on the island, then you will not find better than this. I would recommend a car for convenience. Roads are poor compared to mainland USA and steep everywhere you go (you don't need four wheel drive, our rental 4-cylinder Nissan Versa did fine). We visited 5 different beaches, but our favorite beach was Hull Bay, quiet, good snorkeling, small restaurant/bar, mostly locals, a few iguanas and mongoose, and only 5 minute drive from Mary's. Enjoy!

Enchanting

Our stay at the beautiful Dancing Orchid B and B was all we had hoped for and more. We had a huge comfortable bedroom attached to a large covered patio with breathtaking views. Mary provided us with delicious breakfasts each morning and allowed us the opportunity to just “chill” and enjoy the sun and scenery. It is more of a secluded location, with somewhat challenging roads (until you get used to them), but we were desiring quiet and privacy, so we were very happy with the location. This was our first time to St. Thomas. We were thrilled with our choice of accommodation and would happily stay again!
