It was conveniently located right by the airport, yet tucked away and gave that private feel. Not crowded at all this time of year. This side of town seemed pretty safe to us as compared to other parts we visited while in St Thomas. The staff was very friendly and helpful during our entire stay. It is not a big chain luxurious resort but has that beach vibe that we were looking for. The grounds and the views are beautiful. My only complaint was the trees blocked some of the view from balcony, but it was a trade off to have some shade down at the beach area. I would definitely stay here again.

Want the luxuries of basic living in the US? Dont come here. Prepare to be ignored, lied to, and general unfullfillment of promises. On a positive note the drink titled The "Painkiller" at the bar is incredibly good. Wont be back...

I loved staying at emerald beach resort, it is further away from most main tourist attractions and some taxi drivers may not take you too far, but would recommend renting a car if you're staying at this resort. Other than that, love the hotel, the rooms were great, employees are a little rude but don't let it bother you much. Will come back to this resort next year!

It’s a nice hotel. The beach and area around the hotel need cleaning. Foliage around the area needs dead stuff removed and raked. Employees were always sitting down and a housekeeper was laying on a bed watching tv when we walked by. Could be a great hotel with an extra care. Everyone seems unmotivated.
