The Ritz-Carlton, St. Thomas

"Everything here was excellent, including the staff, the facilities, the room, the view from the room, the food in the restaurants, the pool, the available water toys (kayak, hobbies, ) and the very attention to details that convey that sense of luxury (ie the shampoo, the towel, the soap, the amazing bedding, etc). They are trying to keep the sargassum away with a barrier and partially succeeding at keeping it under control. The beach is relatively small and facing east."

Two Sandals – A Boutique Hotel

2/10 Terrible

"I was not 1 min from Secret Harbor it was 15 mins Taxy , misleading info, I changed my booking right away"

Beautiful Ocean View 2 Bed 2 bath condo Above The Beach at Cowpet Bay East

8/10 Good

"Only thing I probably didn’t like was in the master bedroom at the back of the condo the ceiling fan you couldn’t turn it up on high because it wobbled so bad and made so much noise. It kept you awake so you had to keep it on low. Overall accommodations for good. The view is excellent. The beds are a little hard for me, but by the end of the day we slept OK."

Club Wyndham Elysian Beach Resort

8/10 Good

"The property is beautiful the staff was good. They don’t have everyday guest service: u have to call them if you need clean towels and toilet tissue or clean sheets. The service is not automatic like everywhere else that’s the only thing I didn’t like. Overall it is a very beautiful property "

Oceanview Luxury Condo – Beach, Pool, Gym & Yacht Club

10/10 Excellent

"I was in St. Thomas for my daughter's wedding and this condo unit is only 3 minutes away from the wedding venue. making travel to/from easily. It is also centrally located on the east end to access beaches and attractions.The owner, Ana, is exceptional in communicating with me in a timely and clear manner. For example, before arrival, she was able to help me with identifying a fishing charter as I wanted to take my friends on an offshore trip. During my stay, she was able to answer my question on finding the best cleaner on the island so that my suit could be cleaned and pressed in time for the wedding. She was consistently going above and beyond making sure I had the best experience.The unit has beach chairs, cooler, beach toys, and beach towels so we could easily go to the beach without needing to purchase those things. The kitchen is fully stocked with pots, pans, utensils, plates, bowls, and glass wares. We made most of the meals on our own so with this kitchen, it was easy!I highly recommend this unit to anyone visiting St. Thomas."

Luxury Villas-Casa De Petrus-All Three Villas with Basketball & Pickleball Court

10/10 Excellent

"This property is beautiful! If you want a luxurious, fabulous, high-end property in St Thomas - I highly recommend staying here!! The amenities are great, with nice design touches throughout the property (waterfalls, swim up pool, etc.). And the view. Well, the view is extraordinary! We rented all three villas, but really all three individual villas are wonderful. If any issues at all, just contact property manager and everything is resolved immediately. Very professional. Everything is relatively close to the villas, but you'll need either a taxi or car rental. The host can provide recommendations. I used JJ Taxi (also recommended by the host), which was great! JJ Taxi provided a personalized tour of St Thomas, (with pick up directly from the villas), and taxi arrangements to and from restaurants. I also recommend dive in catering for chef services. We had daily breakfast from the chef, and it just added that extra amount of lux to our travel and birthday celebration. Visit this property and safe travels!!"

Brand New Luxury 8BR Villa on St. Thomas with Ocean Views, Waterfall Pool & More

10/10 Excellent

"This place is phenomenal and the pictures posted does not do it any justice!! My family and I was displaced in St. Thomas with another VRBO rental. However, VRBO stepped in and we booked this place. Immediately after the booking Connor, who was our host reached out to us and worked hard to get us checked in early the next day. But he didn’t stop there, he also got with Rock City Rentals to get us three jeeps sent to house upon our arrival. Rock City did us a solid and brought the jeeps to the hotel we were at. Back to the house. When we pulled up the house was breathtaking and the views were heavenly. Connor made sure to be there to give us a tour of the home and make sure we had everything we needed. Two nights in we tried turning on the fire pits but couldn’t figure out how. We called Connor around 10pm asking him to walk us through getting lit. Three minutes later Connor was at the house to switch out the tanks and lit both pits. We also had extra guest and needed to move others around to make room. We were going to wash the sheets, instead Connor brought us new ones. We’ve rented a lot of place but I have never met a host has attentive, kind and extremely helpful has Connor. He helped turn a disaster of a vacation into a fantastic memory that none of us will ever forget!!!! Thank you so much Connor!"

St Thomas 2BR Oceanside Villa with Views: Steps to Beach, Pool & Restaurants

10/10 Excellent

"This is a great place for a family or couples. The beach nearby is nice and the pool is lovely for children. The house has enough items that you will need if you are bringing kids. Made it easy and we used a lot of it every day. Sleep was great there. Nice view of the ocean. There is a parking lot in between the view but nothing to be bothered by. Great place to stay!"
