The hotel Exceeded my expectations. Our room was clean and comfortable. We stayed at the Hilltop Villas II. The restaurant and pool bar experience in terms of food quality and service was very nice. Seems to be that the hotel was recently renovated and all areas all very clean and well maintained. All of the hotel staff we related to were very friendly and ready to serve. We had an issue during checking originated by contracting terms between the hotel and *******, but Camile handled the issue very professionally and took GREAT care of us during the process, we felt confident and safe on getting the problem solved. Thanks Camile !!

It’s a lovely, historic low-key resort. Very well maintained, with very friendly and helpful staff, and a great restaurant. We were in a studio in the East Castle Villas III building, with a great view of Havensight Harbor from our deck. The room was clean and comfortable, with good AC and fan over the bed. Bathroom small, but had everything we needed, including walk-in shower, sink vanity with drawers and storage enough for two, Plenty of towels provided, including two beach towels. Our unit had a small kitchenette — mini fridge with a larger than usual freezer; small sink; two-burner range; and microwave. Also a small utility cart on wheels containing plates, bowls, glasses and silverware for four, plus utensils. On top we had a four-slice toaster and standard drip coffeemaker with small basket of coffee packets. (Wish they had Keurig- type coffeemaker, as we don’t drink a lot of coffee, and single-serve capsules would have been more convenient. But we brought single-serve instant coffee packets, which were fine.) If you plan to book here, DO get an understanding of the layout/logistics of the different buildings, and what elevation (level) your room will be in relationship to the main building/restaurant/pool deck, and where your car may be parked if you are renting or where you would meet a taxi. Because the maps don’t indicate how everything here is built on a hill, and thst building floor levels can be deceptive. We were on the third floor of East Villas III … which actually is on the “walk out” level to get to the main building entrance and restaurant. (If your room is on the first floor, or second, a steep set of stairs must be climbed — there is no elevator in this building … or most of the others.) But that’s part of the historic nature of this property. There are small outdoor lifts to take you up down the various levels to the restaurant/pool area, and to the parking spaces at the entrance. But not inside the buildings, except for Hilltop II, I believe. Just be aware that there are many different levels to this property … and be prepared to deal with them when you book. There is a great staff available on call to pick you up in golf carts and take you where you need to go on the prooerty. So if you are staying on the bottom level of the East Villas III, for instance, you can just call and get a golf cart to pick you up and drive you to and from the main level if you don’t want to navigate the steps. Bluebeard’s is very centrally located — convenient to all that is available in Charlotte Amalie … by car. Only those incredibly fit would consider Bluebeard’s to be within “walking distance” of anything. It’s up a very steep grade, and there are no sidewalks. But this is the case almost everywhere on St Thomas — it is not a place for doing much walking, unless in a shopping district or on a beach. Speaking of which, Bluebeard’s is not the place for you if you want to be able to walk out of your room and go to the beach. It’s
