"Was a great experience? The shuttle service to the rooms made me feel very exclusive and luxurious, just have to note the times they do start and stop the service. Staff were all the way helpful. Everyone on the compound was glad to help. The surrounding areas where lovely. Pool, ocean view everything. With live music, food and drinks I had a blast!"

10/10 Excellent
"We loved staying here! Exactly what we were looking for and exceeded expectations. The cove and beach were gorgeous. This side of the island is protected from the wind so it was stunning when the other side of the island was getting hit with rough waves and seaweed. There’s a small reef right off the beach so it was so easy to snorkel. The restaurant onsite was amazing and the bar was awesome just footsteps from our room. The staff were so nice and helped with calling taxis. We came in the off season so the beach was not packed at all and it felt like we had found a little slice of paradise that not many people knew about. The room was so clean and it was awesome to have a little kitchen with a full fridge. It was an easy taxi from the airport and you’re so close to red hook to jump on the ferry to St John. We definitely will be staying here again and would recommend to friends and family!"

"I can NOT say enough good things. My boyfriend and I just got back from a week here and we had THE BEST experience. We felt truly submerged in the heartbeat of the island, walkable to Cruz Bay and a ton of other restaurants, walkable to a market, tons of car rental businesses, and the staff was extremely accommodating. Night 1 our AC went out, the next morning we were promptly relocated to another room (upgraded). Karen and Angie were both beyond friendly, helpful, and hospitable. Karen helped us with the way of the island, restaurants recommendations, beach recommendations, car rentals, and sight seeing in general. We are already looking for another week we can come back and we will choose this hotel once again. Stay here and you won’t regret it!"
