Great views! Food at the pool side restaurant was great. Not having daily housekeeping was a downfall and dragging luggage up and down 3 flights of stairs.

The stay was good, but two things the store should have more essentials groceries and there was no elevator and I was on the bottom floor walking up and down those flights of stairs was a bit much. But otherwise everything was great!!

Pirates Pension was a Lovely place to stay. It was quiet with a well set up kitchen, and a gorgeous view of the harbour. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub every day.
We spent a week touring around St. Thomas and St.John and this spot was perfect as a base. Please note it is up a hill so having a rental car like we did was ideal.

Blue beards is a really great place to stay. It was very comfortable and had a great view! The only compliant Inhave is that I wish I had booked it through the hotel and not hotels.com! When we checked in the hotel wasn’t aware of our reservation and we had to wait an hour for them to have our room ready.

It was nice. Wish the hotel room would have taken less steps to get to though. But expect lots of steps in St. Thomas

The rooms are really great and everything is clean. The slightly weird thing is there are still hurricane wrecks around the property. We dont mind that a bit and stay here all the time. The kitchenette is excellent for the 3 or 4 day work trips we do here.

I would absolutely stay here again! Great location. About $12-19 a person for a taxi most places. Love that th report takes care of a lot for you, need a taxi? They got it! Wasn’t crowded st all, room in the hot tub every night! Great food, good people! Events like live music and karaoke! Near the port making it easy to travel to other islands. Close to duty free shopping!
Thank you for everything!
