10/10 Exceptional

Amazing guesthouse!

Despite the insane incline to drive up to the place, thin walls that me and my now fiance had an entertaining listen of a night of another couple, and challenge of finding out the secret method to having hot water (turn on the hot water on the sink first for a while before using the shower lol) the stay was legit incredible. I know it sounds crazy but I’d definitely stay there again. Staff were very friendly and you cannot beat the view of the island. The breakfast was really good and the rooms were comfortable. Check in and out was very easy. I’d definitely stay again.

8/10 Very good

The property had great views. The staff was very nice and accommodating. The views to the bay were wonderful. Getting up to the hotel is fairly difficult and it’s recommended that you rent a car to get there. Television and stations are very limited.

This is the place to stay - restorative and lovely

What a lovely spot, away from the chaos of the cruise ships, and an amazing breezy view. We will choose to stay here again next time we come to the USVI.
David, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

This is a lovely looking property from the outside, with a clean pool and a wonderful outdoor seating area for breakfast and drinks. However, the room was in need of a pretty big refresh and did not match the pictures on this site at all. The pictures show bright decorations and linens, rugs, etc. Our room had nothing but the bed with basic linens, a dresser with a few basic trinkets, a very old kitchen with some broken cabinets, and a broken outdoor table on a balcony that had power lines running directly in front of it. It wasn't unlivable, but it definitely was a surprise based on what was shown during booking. The breakfast was small but delicious and the staff was kind. We wouldn't immediately book here again, but we wouldn't not stay if it was the best option available.

Douglas, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

My daughter and I really enjoyed our stay. Our room was cute, comfortable and clean. The grounds are lovely - many tropical plants. The saltwater pool is very nice, too. The staff is very kind, gracious and helpful. The food is wonderful. Unfortunately, our schedule didn’t permit us to have dinner, but the restaurant was always full during the dinner hours. The breakfast is perfect! The location above the town provides for a beautiful day and night, and an easy commute to shopping, site seeing, and nearby beaches. I would definitely stay there again. One special feature are the two kitties that are very friendly and love greeting guests.

The views are amazing, the atmosphere relaxing, & the rooms comfortable. If you're lucky enough to stay during a special dinner, you're in for a treat. That was the best meal I've had in my life!

Enjoyed our stay at this quiet, beautiful property. The guest room was so comfortable and the check in process very simple. The owners are onsite and made our entire experience so wonderful! The food was exceptional and enjoyed from the beautiful breezeway overlooking the ocean. An honor bar and lounge area were welcoming as well. We will be back!
