Beautiful beads, clean ,water is calm, not too deep. Changing Rooms clean bars,you can rent chairs but the food is a little pricey entrance fee is also pricey $7 per person for none residence and you’re not allowed to leave and returned same day, you have to pay every time you return.

It depends on what you are looking for. If you want nasty water, tons of boats, big crowd, and trashy beaches, this place sucks. But if you want a beautiful beach with clear water, peace, and a place for the family, Magens beach is amazing!!

Beautiful beach,water is so clear ,ez to get to.U have to pay to enter ,for 3 of us little over $20.There is a souvenir shop,pizza and sandwich shop.This may be the most beautiful beach at Saint Thomas.I was only at 3 of Saint Thomas beaches.

Magens Bay Beach is absolutely beautiful. We were there during off season so it wasn't very crowded which made both parking and finding a great spot on beach to drop our stuff easy. Definitely park or head way down to the left on the beach away from the restaurant. That first area is where all the cruise ship people get dropped off and stay and that gets crowded fast. Water and sand are perfect and lots of sea turtles eating sea grass if you snorkel out towards the markers

Water was cool and clear and teaming with fish and other water animals. Beach was beautiful and well maintained with fine white sand. There is a bar and food options on the beach. Also you can rent all kinds of beach equipment including chairs, masks, water floats, etc. It also has a place to rinse off and change before leaving the beach. It was a little crowded with 3 cruise ships in port but that wasn't that bad as the beach is very long. Highly recommended for a dip for a few hours.

This is one of our favorite beaches in St. Thomas. It has a beautiful white sand beach that is spacious enough to provide seating for large crowds, along with crystal blue waters. We usually attend on days when cruise ships are not in, which makes it nice and peaceful without crowds. The shallow sandy beach does not require water shoes, as there are few rocks or coral in the wading areas. They have public bathrooms, a gift shop, and a place to get drinks and food. We had plenty of space to lay towels out in the shade of the nearby trees, but they also provide seats and umbrellas for a charge. Also, there is a charge for adults visiting the beach plus they charge for parking. I think our party of 5 with parking was around $40. For those who think the snorkeling is not great, I think they may have missed where the action is. I’d recommend walking to the end of the beach on the northern part and swim along the rocky coastline to see some great aquatic life. The south rocky coastline also has good snorkeling. The sandy beaches make the visibility not the best at times, but we saw some turtles and a good variety of fish. Definitely worth the visit next time you’re in St. Thomas!

Costs around 30 dollars for a group of 4 to get in, and there's sewage runoff that goes directly into the area you swim (you can actually watch the brown water dispense into the clearer water) on the other hand, when there's not actual human feces being dispensed into the water the beach is very clear and nice. The food is also good.

Great spot to stop off on your drive around St. Thomas! We stopped here on our way to Magens Bay, and we’d recommend you do the same. The overlook has fantastic views of the bay and the BVI’s. There is a pull-off on the side of the road with parking for a few vehicles, and people don’t seem to stay for more than 5-10 minutes, so the parking opens up pretty quickly. After parking, you need to cross the street via a crosswalk to get to the actual seat, but be careful as sight distance isn’t great around the curve, and drivers can be flying through the area. Definitely worth the visit!

🌅 Drake’s Seat – The View You’ll Never Forget 👤 By alexvane1 – Google Local Guide Perched high above Magens Bay, Drake’s Seat is one of the most iconic scenic overlooks in St. Thomas — and it absolutely lives up to the hype. Legend says this is where the infamous Sir Francis Drake would watch for enemy ships sailing through the Caribbean. Today, it’s where travelers come to take in breathtaking panoramic views of the bay, the Atlantic Ocean, and surrounding islands. 📸 I stopped here just before sunset, and the sky painted the horizon with pinks, oranges, and deep blues. Whether you’re into photography, nature, or history, this spot delivers. ✅ What to Know: Easy roadside pull-off — no hiking required Great for sunrise or sunset Bring water, and stay a while — the view is worth it Best paired with a trip down to Magens Bay Beach below If you’re visiting St. Thomas, don’t miss this stop. It’s a quick detour with a lifetime of views. — alexvane1 📍 St. Thomas | Local Guide Level [X] #LocalGuides #DrakesSeat #StThomasViews #MagensBay #IslandOverlook #GoogleMaps

Stunning and breathtaking view. The first thing you'll say getting out of the car is "man this is beautiful." There's the official drake seat behind you up on a little hill. Both views are stunning. We went when it was overcast and had rained and then came back the next day when the sun was out. It's a stunning view under both conditions, but way better when the sun is dancing off the water. You can see down to magan's bay and you can see the houses in the hills. Then magan's bay is a 10 minute drive down the hill. $7 per adult to get in and $2 parking but the water is a beautiful indigo blue and they have beach chairs for rent, life guard on duty, outdoor restrooms, food trucks. White sand.

The view from Drake seat is absolutely spectacular. And if you can go on a day with no cruise ships in port or maybe early in the morning or late in the evening, it could be peaceful and spectacular. Otherwise the cruise ship bring lots of people in in the traffic and everything is a little bit disconcerting, but you still get to see an amazing view.

Great view! Definitely worth stopping for.

The view is breathtaking! Definitely worth the short drive. We did intend to watch the sunset there, I wouldn't recommend to try to see it there. Still an amazing spot to sit and relax though. My pictures don't do it justice.

Unbelievable view of Meghan's Bay and the entire east side of St. Thomas. Stop and take a Pic or 10

An amazing place with a great view of the islands. Make sure to try one of the famous banana daiquiris

Beautiful! Even had live entertainment, while we observed the beautiful views of our ship from the mountains.

It should honestly be the first place you go when getting into St Thomas wether its in the day or the night.. some of the best views of the harbor your going to get anywhere on the island!

Great place to look over the island. Easy to get to and not far from the city.

Breathtaking, amazing sight, and 100% worth the hike

nice view, was worth the drive even if we only stayed for 10 mins or so

Very bumpy ride to the top and it's a little unsettling if you're afraid of heights, BUT... the view is worth it all! Absolutely stunning. We went here on an excursion during our recent cruise and it's just breathtaking. Would Absolutely do it again!

Tree Limin Extreme Zip Lines was the highlight of our stop in St Thomas! Our guides were Gabby and Adam! They were awesome! So professional and kept our safety their top priority while also keeping it super fun- and Gabby had a terrific sense of humor! Adam and Gabby made it exceptional. I would highly recommend!

I do NOT like heights! Our guides Francis and DaLonnie did a great job at making it such a fun experience! We had a blast doing the six lines and the two bridges. We had a party of 10 and several of us were afraid of heights. They did a great job of helping us face our fears. I definitely recommend adding this to your must do list!

We had such a great time! Our guides were amazing! ( I will edit the post with there names later I have them written down somewhere!) I would definitely go back. The views were amazing the guides don't mind taking a couple of pictures from the top

A fun experience, definitely worth doing. The thrill and the charm make it highly unique, every zipline has its own story to tell. There are a total of 6 lines and a special word of mention to the local guides, Alex, Kai and Reed. Definitely high on the recommendation list when you are in St. Thomas.

Incredible experience from start to finish! The views from the zip lines were absolutely breathtaking. The guides were hilarious, kept us laughing the whole time, but never compromised on safety—they made sure we felt confident and secure. Their energy and professionalism turned a fun adventure into a truly unforgettable one. Highly recommend!

I have done a lot of zip lining and this was by far the most beautiful one I have done. Adam and Delanie were amazing! Funny and helpful. We felt very safe. Highly recommend!

Ziplining here was so much fun! The guides were educational and humorous and the views of the Virgin Islands were phenomenal.

The banana daiquiri's here are definitely the BEST that you will ever have! The view from the top of the mountain is really great too, you can see the surrounding USVI and BVI. The gift shop here has the largest selection of everything for less $ than the places in town. Put this on your must do list!

Gift shop with a great view and "world famous banana daiquiri" that they make fresh as you order. It was refreshing, and a great view. Of course, we bought some souvenirs too.

A tourist trap with great views. There is a large deck on the back of the building with amazing views. They sell Banana Daiquiri, other snacks and beverages, and all the shirts and souvenirs you could want

Must go place to visit for beautiful views of the island and indulging in their iconic banana daiquiri!! Famous photo and souvenir stop where the souvenirs weren’t that bad in price and there were a ton of options to choose from. Food options could be better, they really only sold hotdogs, chips and drinks.

I saw some people say it was expensive but I’m not sure if we went at different times because they had shirts 9.99, keychains 10 for 5.00 and a great banana daiquiri. This was the best store/lookout I’ve been to here.

Beautiful scenery and the best gift shop on my whole trip. They had everything, a look out deck, and a tiki bar.

The view is why you go to Mountain Top, the banana daquiri is a bonus! It's surprisingly affordable with a souvenir cup! The only regret was that we didn't wait to buy our gifts for back home beforehand, I would have waited if I knew how big the shop was and the variety of souvenirs! Taxi was the more expensive part of the trip, coming from Coki Beach area resort.

Outstanding restaurant in the cool location. You can tell that they take pride in everything that they do. The barbecue ribs Coconut Rice, New York steak drinks and dessert were all amazing. The service was also top notch. I would recommend this restaurant if you're looking for a great meal at a reasonable price.

Good restaurant with local vibes, affordable prices for the island and great servers and bartenders. The food is always good and the drinks spot on. Plenty of TVs for football season and nice covered porches with fans for warmer days. Huge cocktail and beer menu. Blackened mahi sandwich, burger and ahi tuna sandwich are some of our favorites.

Straight up local hidden gem. My apologies to the locals but I haveto do the review, because they have one of the best rib I’ve ever had. The coconut rice with that rib is heavenly.

We love Sibs! The service is great and they have live music. Very clean and plenty of parking. The food is amazing! I highly recommend the Greek salad.

Food was great, service was not. We placed our appetizer, entree, and dessert order all at the same time. The waitress never came back to check on us until we were ready for the bill. At that point, we didn’t have dessert and we were ready to go. Bill took a while to receive while our drinks were still empty. At least she didn’t try to charge us for dessert. The hostess was super friendly. We saw him more than our waitress. Would try again, just would hope for better service.

Sib's - best local hangout on St. Thomas October 2025 Sib's on the Mountain is probably the best local hangout on St. Thomas. It's been at its location for over 100 years, which tells one that the food, drinks, service and ambiance have been a draw for a century. Had dinner there last Sunday night (October 26th) while I watched Sunday Night Football on NBC. Earlier in the evening, a solo pan (steel drum) player entertained patrons with tunes that accentuated the atmosphere without overpowering conversations. I am familiar with Sib's, having grown up on the island. Coaches and teammates used to go there to celebrate victories after high school football games. Decades later, I can attest Sib's still delivers local hospitality, all highlighted by welcoming Sibley family owners/members like Monique.

Had a great dinner with my wife here. I had Chicken and she had ribs. Service was polite, prompt, correct, and downright friendly. We arrived a bit late around 9, and were still seated and made some dinner. The prices are reasonable. I foolishly left behind my credit card. It was safely stored, so we happily returned for dinner again at 1700 the next day. This time I got the ribs, and apparently the great experience was no accident.

The best shake I’ve ever tasted and must have when visiting St. Thomas! I found this spot on the way to Magens Bay beach. It was located off of a turn as your driving down the hill to the entrance of the beach. We were immediately greeted with a smile and a “Hello, welcome to udder delights” as we walked unto the deck. The shake choices are exotic, fun, and really captures the culture of the island. There are lots of choices so we asked for help deciding. The owner who was there at the time recommended the banana foster. I ordered the Banana Foster and my husband ordered the Choco-Mocho. OMG they were literally the best shakes we ever tasted! We also ordered the burger and fries for lunch which was fantastic! The burgers were moist and well seasoned and the fries and coleslaw were great as well. We were literally addicted and wished we found this spot much sooner on our trip. We insisted on stopping by for lunch again before our trip ended and it was well worth it again! That time we both enjoyed the Banana Foster which was just as delicious! We had burgers and fries again and a side of wings- all delicious! Can’t wait to visit again on our next trip!

Worth every minute of waiting in line in the heat. You should go here. Yummmm! Lots of great combinations of boozy milkshakes. You can also have them hold the booze. 12.2023 The milkshake shack made it through the hurricane! Still worth stopping. If you don't know where to look, it is easy to miss. As you take the last bend in the road to get to Megan's Bay, you turn to the left and the milkshake shack is on your right. It's quite unassuming. The sign is old and small, keep an eye out and you can't miss it. Obviously, that's a lie, you can miss it. Pay attention.

This place is located a few minutes from Magens Bay. After spending most of the day at the beach , we stopped here. I really like blueberry shakes so I ordered a blueberry hill shake It was one of the best I’ve had. My wife and kids had ice cream and said it was great.

It was the best on the island back in 1983. So cool to see its still there. I moved in 1985 but never made it back sadly.

It's one of the best milkshakes on the island, located at Megan's Bay, perfect for a refreshing stop after a long day at the beach. Menu is if of mouth watering shakes, you can add some of your favorite alcohol or even can get it custom-made. Make your shake, spike it with your favorite alcohol, and add your desired candy toppings, smother it with a chocolate syrup, caramel, or whip cream, and call it a day.

This place was recommended by a local islander and I’m so glad they recommended this spot for lunch! I stopped by with my wife for a taste of their shakes which can be ordered with liquor! The staff member serving us was very pleasant and attentive! The place was clean and had a great selection of shakes and food. We ordered 2 shakes- the Rum Runner and the Banana Foster. The shakes were insane and out of this world! The flavors in the shake came together so well with the perfect amount of “kick”. I can say it was the best shake I ever tasted and my wife felt the same! My wife and I also tried an order of buffalo wings and fries. The food was great and complemented the shakes well! Glad I tried this spot!

A must stop after a day at Magans Bay. Ice cream is fantastic, as are the shakes and other offerings. We make a point of swinging by whenever we go to STT

This isn't a meal. This is a culinary experience. One of the best restaurants on St. Thomas. Every detail is well thought out and amazing. The appetizers, the cocktails, the main courses, as well as dessert were all over the top. The location is also great and feels both historic and laid back. If you come to St Thomas, you owe it to yourself to try this place.

From start to finish, our experience was nothing short of exceptional. Aaron, our server, was professional, attentive, and ensured we had everything we needed throughout the meal. The food? Absolutely out of this world! Every course – from appetizers to main dishes to desserts – was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. We were especially impressed when the chef personally came to our table to ask for feedback. It’s clear they care deeply about the quality of their food and guest satisfaction. Highly recommend a visit – this place is a gem!

This is a nice upscale restaurant to eat at while in St. Thomas. Very cool history behind the place. The food was phenomenal. I have no complaints. It was the best dinner we had the entire time on the island. They’re often changing their menu.

We reserved a spot for dinner after our wedding. We unfortunately got lost on the way there and weee super late. The staff was amazing and allowed us to still have dinner. We didn’t feel rushed at all and everyone was so kind. Such a beautiful way to end our wedding night.

Old Stone Farmhouse is hands down amazing!! Sin our waitress was so helpful and very accomodating! We went for my newphews graduation dinner and she gave a cute congratulations card from the staff at the end! They say reservations were needed but it wasnt terribly busy. Valet is around the back of the building.

Dined 07/17/25 Service was PAINFULLY slow. We almost left before the appetizers came out. Water was never refilled, I ended up grabbing water from a service station myself. Wine did not come out until after our appetizers were already finished. Was not worth the $700 we spent on dinner. Nor was it a great enough experience to take 3 hours for a meal. Lights kept flickering over us and changing in brightness. Took way too long to get seated/greeted. Such a shame because the food was actually great but the overall experience did not match the expectation and price point. Feel like we wasted a whole night for a subpar experience.

Truly a Phenomenal Restaurant. Mouthwatering food and outstanding service. Visited during our 25th Wedding Anniversary Celebrations with great friends and we cannot wait to come back.

Cool shops, but not a very authentic or unique experience. Cruise port shopping centers are so commercialized. I'd rather get off the beaten path and spend my money somewhere more authentic.

Lively, Fun, and Full of Options! We visited Havensight Mall a couple of times during our trip—both with and without our cherished company—and it was a great experience each time. While it was definitely more crowded when the cruise ships were in, the energy was still enjoyable and never overwhelming. The area is lively and full of things to do, from shopping and dining to just strolling around and soaking in the local vibe. There are plenty of shops, both tourist-friendly and local, and a few great spots to grab a bite or a drink. It’s a good idea to go with a plan or a few destinations in mind, just because there’s so much packed into the area. Can’t wait to go back—definitely one of those places where every visit can be a little different depending on what you’re in the mood for! Highly recommend adding it to your St. Thomas itinerary.

There's a variety of shops, restaurants, and even a grocery store we've grown to like. We will go out of our way to eat and shop here because the area is kid friendly and easy to maneuver. Parking is available, and the food is delicious no matter where you eat.

Nice collection of shops right off the ships! Everything you would find tin town you can find right here and more as unfortunately many of the shops in Charlotte Amalie have closed, likely due to the pandemic!

This mall is just like the other shopping areas in Charlotte Amalie. Friendly people (except at the Pandora store, and I'm serious about that). Lots of jewelery as with everywhere else. Some boutique shops too. Tap & Still is always the right choice for lunch.

I enjoyed this shopping experience and purchased a cotton sleep shirt, that was 9.99 us dollars. I wish I knew the number because the number mentioned didn't work and I would like to purchased the rest of colors long sleeve and short sleeves. It's hard to find 100% cotton sleep shirts here in the U.S.

Small shopping mall, its a passage really! Very nice, unusual local shops. Attractively maintained.

My family and I had a fantastic time at Pirates Treasure: A Shipwreck Museum in St. Thomas! It was the perfect mix of fun, history, and hands-on exhibits for all ages. A special shoutout to docent Issa Evans — he was absolutely wonderful! Funny, witty, and incredibly patient with our curious 3-year-old. His enthusiasm really made the experience memorable for all of us. We learned so much and truly enjoyed every part of our visit. Highly recommend this gem for families visiting the island!

This museum was very interesting and fun. Highly suggest visiting. Allowed to take pictures. Fun to dress up as pirates at any age. Even a hurricane simulation. Had our own guide as there were no ships in port and it was quiet at the time. He isvery knowledgeable and went out of his way to share. One of our best experiences on the island.

Fantastic little museum about sunken treasure and pirates. List of information about the history, recovery, and artifacts from the Caribbean. Lots of info about pirates I didn’t know, especially in St. Thomas. Even had several photo opts. I would recommend while going through the shopping area. But they close the Museum at 4:00 because it takes about an hour to go through the museum. The gift shop closes at 5:00. The Museum was $20 per person.

Pirates Treasure Museum is a must visit. Packed with real shipwreck artifacts and interactive displays, it brings pirate history to life. Great for families, kids, and anyone who loves adventure and discovery.

They have wonderful artifacts, history, and the staff is phenomenal. Issa Evans was funny, knowledgeable, and made our experience wonderful. There is also an interactive area where you can dress up as a pirate, take photos, and go the Brig. They also have a gift shop where you can buy actual treasure. Definitely worth a visit, and then head across the street to the Rum Hut for a bushwacker.

Our family visited this museum while at port.we really like the museum and learned a lot. They had some displays and interactive things to do as well. The highlight was from the museum curator, Issa Evans. He was fun and very knowledgeable and shared interesting facts with us. We would highly recommend. It is walkable from the port.

Isa, the gentleman working at the museum is a real gem and very kind. He made my husband and our two daughters feel very welcome. His colleague (pictured), on the other hand, followed us around, yelling at my daughters about 5-6 times, twice for being too loud even though the museum has a hurricane machine! What a shame. She seems way too nervous to be around children in a museum clearly marketed to kids.

Great place to see the port,ship and surrounding areas. The food and drinks are very good. The staff is friendly and have good service. The pictures don’t do it justice you really have to go there and see it. I will do this again.

A fun experience and a great view at top of the Skyride to Paradise. The Baileys Bushwacker was delicious too. A good noonish excursion in Saint Thomas. I reccomend it!

Nice view on top of Paradise point. They have stores where you can buy souvenirs. They have restaurants as well where you can enjoy your food while overlooking at St Thomas view. It was cloudy when we went, and we didn't get a clear view as we would like to see. Employees were friendly.

Took the skyline and the staff was pleasant and we came from the ground level to the top of mountain on the skyline cable ride. Very beautiful experience, the restaurant bar actually had non alcoholic drinks. I got the mango ice froze drink. It was good, taste like real mango

Fun time and good food at the grill. Didn't have Bushwackers, but non-alcoholic drinks that were great. Shopped and took lots of pictures.

Visited today during our cruise and Lavar the waiter was amazing. Definitely request my guy when you go there. Ask for the bushwacker you won’t be disappointed.

Taking the skyline cable ride was both thrilling and beautiful. The staff were friendly. Starting from the ground level and rising all the way to the top of the mountain offered breathtaking views, a bit scary at times, but totally worth it. At the summit, there’s a scenic walk that includes a short rail path, perfect for taking photos or simply soaking in the peaceful landscape. There’s also a restaurant and a gift shop at the top, making it a great spot to relax and take in the surroundings before heading back down. Highly recommend for anyone visiting the area!

Very cool place to shop and chill. My kids loved watching the yachts come in. We got to see Houston Rockets owner Pull his enormous yacht in...very cool!

Fuel dock was easy to work with and well supported. Both trips to this marina, their staff was quick with assisting us get provisions transported to our dinghy and boat, without us asking. Appreciate them!

What a great place to shop! Great deals at Luxe Fragrances located at the end of the pier. You’ll find Ralph Lauren, Diesel, Lacoste, Bath and Body works candles, fragrances, and more! Check out the photos!🤩

Modern atmosphere with high-end food options that don’t disappoint. Be sure to visit St. Thomas Social for bottomless mimosas and if you request to see the cigar options, tell Chef Sunil that Pyper sent you!!!

We used to live there for 5 months in 2016. We felt very safe, our building had 24/7 doorman and security people driving golf carts around the property it is a great place for shopping , eating and it is a beautiful area.

This Yacht Haven Grande location, has a lot to offer you when you visit the St Thomas US Virgin Islands. It will be one of the spots, you will ‘dock off’ from your cruise ship. They offer souvenirs shops, restaurants, bars, taking sailing trips, live-music, picture moments, etc. Add this location to your list, if you are planning to visit the island.

Nice place to check out. They have lots of restaurants and shopping stores to buy clothes and gifts.

Worth visting to get a sense of history and how the town is laid out. Takes only a few mins to walk up to the top, so you can say you did it :) Whoever is building the new house at the top will have a wonderful view of the port, so go now while it is still under construction.

It is only a short walk from the Charlotte Amalie Historic District (interesting, but tons of jewelry dealers), Fort Christian, the local vendor's plaza, and Emancipation Garden. Definitely worth a quick hop skip and jump to walk over and up them. I counted 102 total steps and 66 of the old stone. The remaining steps were concrete. All in all, a very cool sense of the history from the natives of the Ciboney tribes, the Taino or Arawak tribe and the Caribs to the Spanish, Danish, and British. Quite the few hundred years for this attractive little waterfront...

Sometimes it was easier to build steps up a mountain than a sidewalk. This is a step side walk. It has a ton of history around it, such as the buildings and ruins; and lovely flowers along the way. It would be an interesting place for a photographer. There are some cool shots to capture. When you reach the top, there is a stunning view of the bay. Go early in the morning, it gets a tad warm.

99 Steps offers a captivating journey through history that every visitor to St. Thomas should experience. As you ascend these well-worn steps, flanked by charming historic buildings, you can't help but feel transported back in time. The cobblestone path and aged facades evoke a sense of nostalgia that is both charming and enchanting. Reaching the summit, one is greeted by the crowning jewel of this climb – Blackbeard's Castle. This iconic structure stands tall, a testament to the rich maritime history of the Caribbean. The panoramic views from this vantage point are nothing short of breathtaking. The lush greenery and azure waters stretching out in every direction create a scene straight from a postcard. For any tourist, this excursion is an absolute must. 99 Steps not only provides a physical journey but also a voyage through time and culture. It's a chance to immerse oneself in the stories of the past while enjoying the stunning beauty of the present. Don't miss out on this unique and unforgettable experience when visiting St. Thomas

A nice stroll along the steps. Not too hard to climb. Great views for looking around and being a tourist. Also a great area for photo ops. Steps are historic and old, but beautiful nonetheless and leads to different parts like a restaurant, black beard's castle, or a rum store.

One of the hidden gems in St. Thomas’s capital city of Charlotte Amalie are the 99 steps located on Kongens Gade, just east of Hotel 1829. Walking through this historic landmark can provide a time for meditation, reflection and reverence whether alone or with family and/or friends. If you are up for the challenge (there are actually 106 steps) the climb is a bit of a workout. Once at the top, the views are spectacular and you can use your imagination to think of all the pirates, town folks, and royalty that ascended those stairs on their way to Blackbeard’s Castle. (Due to damages from the 2017 hurricanes, the castle is now closed to the public). Nevertheless, the rewards for climbing the steps are many including the native flowers and plants along both sides of the stairs and it’s FREE! As it is told, the original bricks were constructed from ships that came from Denmark and used to make travel around the island much easier. Enjoy your visit 👣.

Quick 2 minute climb will take you to the top of these historic stairs for a grand view of the Charlotte Amalie harbor and area. Worth the stop and as there are no cruises these days the place was empty empty.

the locals drive like it's Pakistan. Beware the sea weed in the summer. bring at least $300.00 a day for food... duty-free stores are a joke , they say no tax , however, everything you buy is at least 3x more expensive than anywhere else. Just price some booze... aside from the horrible drivers and way extra priced everything the views are great the water is super clear ,and if you get away from the cruise area it's better. I did not cruise had a car so I did see entire island.

If we ever make it back to the island I would stay here in a second. We stayed here for half of our honeymoon, after fleeing St. John to st Thomas right before Hurricane Irma hit. No one would take us in. I begged them at the desk while my wife sat in the rental about to cry. They took us in and boarded us up in a concrete villa. Hurricane shutters and all. After the complete destruction we all became a family and took care of each other and waited for rescue. The cooks there made us our first hot meal maybe days later down by the water. We ate MRE meals from the military throughout and had saved water in our bathtub and all the bowls in the villa. A lot of the lower buildings were destroyed and roofs ripped off. It was terrifying. The aftermath was almost more terrifying than the storm as the island was so destroyed no one could get food or buy anything let alone drive anywhere with phone poles blocking roads and electrical wires everywhere. This is but a short description of the ordeal. We were eventually rescued by a ln old cruise ship. I believe we might have written a thanks shortly after but with Hurricane season starting it made me remember how wonderful the people at this place were to us. Truly like saved our lives. We had nowhere else to stay and time was running out. Thank you again from Buffalo NY. We stayed in B-15. I have tons of professional photos of the damage and trip 😞

One of my favorite spots in the Caribbean. So much stuff to do in such an amazing city. Will definitely be returning next year.

If you want jaw dropping views this is the place! St. John offers tons of bays, turtles, crystal clear water and is just a ferry away from St. Thomas

We're going to try to come back every year it's amazing that you can swim in the Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea in the same day. And the water is beautiful. So are the beaches. The people are very kind and very helpful.

The U.S. Virgin Islands are so much fun and there are so many fun things to do! I highly recommend St Thomas! The U.S. Virgin Islands are truly a tropical paradise, and St. Thomas is no exception! From the moment I arrived, I was captivated by the island's stunning beaches, crystal-clear waters, and vibrant culture. There's so much to see and do in St. Thomas. I spent my days lounging on the beach, snorkeling in the turquoise waters, and exploring the charming town of Charlotte Amalie. I also had the opportunity to hike through lush rainforests and visit historical sites like Blackbeard's Castle. The locals were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making me feel right at home. The food was delicious, with a variety of fresh seafood and Caribbean flavors. If you're looking for a fun and relaxing vacation, I highly recommend visiting St. Thomas. It's a truly unforgettable destination that has something to offer everyone.

A great island with a lot of stuff to do. Beautiful beaches but a little touristy even for tourist. Definitely worth exploring around a bit.

Mica was our server and she was great!! (Also ALL of the other people working tonight were so upbeat and pleasant to everyone around us!) food was amazing and quick! Good prices for St Thomas! Great experience!

I ordered the fried lobster and shrimp. It came out hot and fresh. My husband had the seafood pasta and he enjoyed it. That is saying a lot because he is extremely picky. We did not take pictures of the food, we just dove right in as soon as the food arrived. Service was great and the restaurant was clean. I recommend!

Found this gem in St. Thomas. We were cravin’ for seafood boil. Seafood boil is excellent. There’s Filipino influence. Tasty sauce. Service is attentive and friendly. Atmosphere is a good vibe. We sat outside in the terrace. Nice sunset.

I had the boiled lobster with shrimp, snow crab clusters which came with corn and potatoes. The food was very delicious and cooked well. Our server Sharra was excellent. She took very good care of us. We were even presented with a live lobster too.

I ordered the fried snapper, it was not hot. The fish was dry. The mac and cheese was also dry. It was as if the food was old. I would not recommend this place to anyone. I wished I would have requested a refund because I feel cheated out of my money. I ate here on Tuesday, May 27, 2025 at approximately 1:42 pm, I state this in order to provide more context for visitors to St. Thomas like myself. There was no toilet paper and no paper towel in the restroom. I had to ask for napkins in order to use their restroom.

Visited St Thomas, asked around "what's the best place for seafood?", everyone mentioned Cravin' Crabs, checked it out, food was amazing, you can definitely taste the island fresh difference, service was wonderful, thank you Rex for taking such good care of us, atmosphere was great considering the location but the inside was a bit stuffy and lackluster to say the least, overall, literally the talk of the island! I love you Jacqueline ❤️ thank you for the absolutely wonderful time on St Thomas! 🏝️🍻

Cafeteria style food is an understatement. Shocked at how many people think this is good food. Stopped in because of the reviews as was surprised at how awful the food was. $40 for salmon that's been sitting under a food lamp drying out? No amount of butter could save it.

Tap & Still SXM is a solid spot if you’re looking for a casual, no-frills bar with great drinks and a relaxed atmosphere. The open-air setup gives it a fun island feel, perfect for unwinding after a long day. The drinks are definitely the highlight—well-made cocktails, ice-cold beers, and strong pours at good prices. The service is friendly and efficient, adding to the easygoing vibe. The food, while simple, is decent for bar bites, with burgers and fries being the go-to options. It’s not a fancy spot, but if you’re after a chill place with good drinks and a fun crowd, Tap & Still delivers.

Great selection of beers and drinks! The best cheeseburger on the island (get the double with fries). Plenty of parking and easy to find. Great service! Friendly staff and bathrooms close by.

We have eaten and relaxed here several times (family of four). Their burgers are devine. Eating outside is relaxing and it's so easy to watch the kids play. Eating inside is nice as well, especially when watching sports. They have a DJ regularly (I think) and usually have or can get the sports games you want to watch. They are in a prime location as well.

It's a Five Guys with alcohol, they serve everything in bags just like FG with fries in the bottom. Burgers were good for the price. The funnel cake is really good I didn't try a shake. The servers were uncoordinated and we got asked multiple times from different people our order.

I just had the most bestest chicken sandwich here at Tap and Still! Tammy at the grill out back was on fire! I hoovered that sandwich in short time. Delicious! And I was supremely taken care of by the ever effervescent Vanessa rocking it behind the bar. This place is crushing it!

I would definitely like to make another trip to get a cheeseburger, very tasty, a little weird having chickens walk through the bar, but comical. Recommend stopping in if you're in St. Thomas.

This place was really good. We really enjoyed ourselves. The food was fabulous. The atmosphere was fabulous and the service was great. Vanessa Jackson and Derek did an awesome job with service. The drinks was good. Vanessa did an awesome job. She made me some strong islands as we say, I would highly recommend this place at a few places on the island, but this will have to be one of the best.

DHP is a great bar and restaurant, with several TVs to watch the game, plenty of tables and bar stools, a solid beer selection, and so many fans. The staff are friendly and on top of their game, and the kitchen is banging it out snd getting it done. This is also a good spot after you go diving with Admiralty. Award winning 🏆

This was a nice reprieve from typical cruise terminal priced food and quality. It has a dive bar feel to it and is tucked nicely into a little corner. Our waitress was wonderful and expedient. The food was standard bar food and the quality was pretty decent. Our total was $60 for 2 adults a child and an alcoholic beverage. I would definitely suggest a visit. Location is a very short walk from the cruise terminal.

We made DHP into "our" hangout while on the island after it was recommended by a bartender at the airport. We ate and drank here several times, and watched the NFL on one of their several TV's. The food was good, and wait staff was great every time. It is largely open-air, with large fans above you and most tables had table fans, which was great during those heat-advisory days. There is also some inside seating that is sort of air conditioned, plus has a few gambling/slot machines. Parking is pretty limited, but I always found a spot behind the neighboring bar.

If you're looking for a place where the locals go to eat and watch the game while still in the heart of the action, this is your spot. The very affordable and delicious food kept us coming back and the friendly staff and great drinks made us feel welcomed while we were there. This was our favorite spot while on the island and we'll be back when we're here next time!

This spot hits the mark for bar fare. The juicy burger and the nachos loaded with shaved ribeye were both excellent. Highly recommend!

Great spot! The nachos with ground beef are so good—definitely a must-try. We liked it so much, we came twice during our vacation. The place is clean, and the service is excellent. Highly recommend!!!

Nachos, fries, and wings what’s not to like. Had the sweet and spicy sausage sub with a side of fries, nachos and wings. It wasn’t super busy when we went but they had a bunch of to go orders so the wait was about 25 minutes, but the atmosphere was nice so time flew by. Wait staff was attentive and friendly.

Lovely chef’s tasting menu. Each dish was infused with Caribbean flavors and ingredients. Everything was exceptional, including the service. One person in our party has a severe fish and seafood allergy and they adapted the tasting menu to accommodate. Such a great find!

Really love what Chef Benji and his team are doing at Blue Eleven. We opted for the 7-course menu sitting at the Chefs table to watch each meal being prepped. The staff were wonderful! We asked a lot of questions about each course and how it was prepped you could tell the team took pride in perfectly plating each course. Chef Benji is elevating local cuisine with amazing sauces and unique ways to present their local food. Sooo many favorites from the evening .. the cheesy lobster with coconut biscuit, the green banana mash (SO delicious), the doughnut at the end but the boiled Halibut with passion fruit sauce (oh my!!) in a cassava foam may have been my favorite. Thank you for such a wonderful and unique evening!!! Bravo!!!!

This was probably the best meal we had in St Thomas. The service was great, the food was delicious. Just a great experience overall. It salvaged some of our dinner experiences on island as good food felt hard to find.

If I could give this restaurant 10 stars, I would! From the amazing waitstaff, to the delicious dinner, everything about this experience was top of the line. The space itself is unassuming but be prepared to be taken on a culinary journey which each course better than the last!

Incredible food, service & atmosphere! The vibes and energy were great. It was fun watching them cook (if you choose to sit at high top). We got 7-course with a drink each, and it was perfect. My fiancé and I ate here to celebrate our 5 years, and because of the great reviews, I chose Blue 11. They won’t disappoint, and we’re excited to try Indigo4 (sister restaurant) for brunch on Sunday before we head home :) Thanks for a great experience…and Chef Elroy, if you’re reading this, we’re the couple that talked about hollandaise sauce and risotto lol! You’re a great man, don’t ever change and also keep on singing! It’s good for the soul.. and so is good food ;)

Update July 2025 We overnighted on St. Thomas to be able to dine at Blue 11 on our way to St. John and the BVIs. It was THAT good last year! It was THAT good again this year! As noted in my last review, our plan going in was to not eat all day so we could enjoy the 11-course chefs tasting menu. So glad we did! 11 perfectly executed small plates, each one fantastic on its own, but as an almost two-hour presentation, heaven on a plate! The restaurant itself is very nice, cool bar area in the back. Nice dining area. But, counter seating is where it's at for a front row seat into the kitchen. Staff is first rate, fun, happy, on the ball! IGNORE reviews complaining about prices and portion sizes! Those are simply IGNORant folks who didn't check out the place before dining there. Blue 11 is foodie, gastro perfection. Pricey yes, small portions yes, but for those who truly appreciate fine dining and expecting a chef's talent, this is a must do in St. Thomas. Easily one of the top two or three restaurants in the USVIs! Simply outstanding! Highly recommend! March 2024 We dined at Blue 11 in St. Thomas, USVI, before a recent sailing adventure. It surpassed all expectations. We arrived when they opened and were the first to be seated. We chose to sit at the "Chef's Counter" so we could watch all the action in the kitchen first-hand. We had eaten earlier in the day, so we opted for the 7-course chef's tasting menu. What a gastro experience! If 10 stars were possible, Blue 11 would earn all 10!!! (Next time we won't eat all day to allow for the 11-course extravaganza! LOL). The service was awesome, the staff super friendly, and the chef and his staff interacted with us all evening. We started the evening with cocktails. A sorrel margherita (the Virgin Islands have their own version of this cultivated spice) and a cosmopolitan. When the drinks were finished, we opted for Eroica Reisling as a good pairing of what we understood the menu for the evening would be. It turned out to be a good choice. After dinner, we capped the evening with a Bushwacker frozen cocktail which was delicious as well. The courses served were as follows: tuna tartare atop a habanero-cucumber sauce; poached Caribbean lobster on an herb-cheese sauce with a coconut biscuit; deconstructed calaloo soup; NY steak with green banana-white cheddar cheese puree, tamarind glaze, and sweet pepper jam; poached halibut with a passion fruit sauce, served on a casaba foam; jerked chicken with plantain gnocchi, sour cream sauce, basil oil, and spicy annato aioli; and, homemade donut with whipped cream, powered sugar, espresso ice cream and guava sauce. The couple seated next to us opted for the 9-course meal, and the wife could eat her 8th course, so we also were able to taste a combination of conch, king mackerel, and onion sauce. If it all sounds delicious, it was! It was a fantastic meal, great setting, and a wonderful time! We will definitely return to Blue 11! Highly recommend Blue 11 on St. Thomas!

Excellent local fine dining restaurant serving delicious modern interpretations of Caribbean favorites using regional ingredients. Excellent service by Jerry & Moses and delicious food cooked by Chef Elroy. We had the 7 course menu and wine pairing: 1. Tuna tartare, cucumber & habanero couli. 2. Lobster with butter sauce and biscuit. / lentils halibut dumb bread. 3. Scallop, fish, callaloo deconstruction. 4. New York steak, green banana cheddar mash, tamarind. 5. halibut , passion fruit, cassava. 6. Jerk chicken, plantain gnocchi, annatto sauce. 7. Doughnut, guava sauce, espresso ice cream. + Creme Brulee birthday gift. My wife has a shellfish allergy which was accommodated smoothly with some tasty substitutions. There was no a la carte option during our visit; 7, 9 or 11 course tasting menu with wine pairing. Wines were very nice with a couple of exceptional and the rest familiar but reasonable names. Highly recommend for regularly treating yourself to a nice meal and also for special occasions. Andy June 2025

Not a ton of shops, it’s a fairly small area, but it was still nice to walk around. Be prepared for high prices. The Sassy SnowCo place was the highlight of this stop. Fair price, and 100% the most friendly service we received in The area. If there were a couple more restaurant options or a few things that were less touristy, I would have given more stars.

Quick stop before embarking on the boat, there's so much to choose from. My Spanish was helpful but not necessary. I found what I needed and more.

Nice visit from dock..Celebrity cruise ! Beyond with CAPTAIN KIRK !!! Wife left my shirts in hotel..great shirts for sale at shopping area

Great little shopping center. Multiple shops open early most food isn't open until 11am. The shops carry a wide array of merchandise. There are also some street carts in the middle that are jam packed with products. We found magnets, stickers and shot glasses. Along with two small figurines. Plenty of seating and live music as well.

Not bad overall, though not a lot to choose from either. There are a few souvenir stands and shops, as well as your standard jewelry and liquor store. Not enough event activities though.

This is the location we met our tour guide Sham for the Key N Go half day UTV tour. Highly recommend this excursion, be prepared to drive on the streets which was so fun and exciting.

Really beautiful Port of Call, the market right by the port had plenty of vendors who unlike quite a few other ports in the Caribbean we're not pushy at all and we're very polite to deal with, shopped with several of the vendors while there, picked up several small souvenirs and some Caribbean coffee which I have enjoyed greatly and still have.

About the play area: The park is in pretty bad shape. Fence has been knocked down around the playground and the grounds need some loving care. Most of the parking is completely consumed by airport folks so even finding a place to park is tough. During my visit, the shelters were being used by a couple folks smoking pot. Skip it...nicer places to visit.

Walking distance from the airport. Can kill a little time if you find yourself with hours of flight delays…. Certainly not “special” in comparison to other area beaches. Just a place for killing time since there are zero options near airport.

Our kids absolutely loved this beach. Calm water and inflatable water house that they enjoyed playing. The beach is nicer to the left side by the hotel

Came to St. Thomas via a cruise ship. Been here numerous times and decided this time to change things up and visit Lindbergh Bay. Great decision. Beautiful beach. We had a nice relaxing day.

This beach is amazing with clear waters and soft sand. Whether you are alone or planning a family beach day, this beach is one if the most visited beaches in St. Thomas. During the weekdays, the beach is pretty much empty so if you are looking for a peaceful and meditative spot during your lunch break, look no further. If you are okay with a crowd and a little loud music the weekends are usually packed.

Be carefully with the ones offering you beverages at the beach, some are taking advantage of tourists, they ask for money to go for drinks but then they disappear. Beach is beautiful, location is worth it, just be careful of locals.

Perfect for personal, couples and FAMILIES experiences! 1. The shorelines are super shallow, as parents your mind can be at ease knowing that your child could be about 3-5 yards out and still be able to stand (experiment for yourself for different heights will apply). 2. There is a jet ski company on the far right of the beach accessible for your adrenaline fun! 3. It’s a CLEAR & CLEAN beach, which makes it so beautiful to see at any time of the day Unless your willing to spend money on a chair, I do advise you to BRING YOUR OWN SEATINGS. Please do enjoy your stay! #Local

Certainly worth the visit to see the 2nd oldest Synagogue in the hemisphere. Sand floors are amazing. Only about 2 blocks off the beat and path of the main shops. Free to go in and take photos. Even if you not Jewish it's worth the trip if you appreciate such things.

One of the oldest synagogues in the Western Hemisphere. Definitely worth a visit. There is no admission fee, but they do accept donations.

Pretty awesome place. The second oldest Synagogue in the western hemisphere! The Synagogue floor is covered with sand. You'd think it's because the of the tropical location but actually it's just to make the service quite. The guide your is amazing. They are open for tourists again since the October 2020. Must see.

Pretty cool synagogue. We had a private tour that lasted about 20 minutes. It was free and informative. Worth the quick trip to see it.

Step back in time, not only when the chosen people were being persecuted by the nazies, but even further back as a surging nation gathering to worship the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

What a beautiful synagogue!! It was worth the trip up the steep hill. We went in because we were hot and tired and this was one of the few places on our self-guided historic walking tour that allowed you to go in. Inside we found a beautiful facility filled with so much history. There's a museum with lots of information and photos that tell the synagogue's story. The rabbi was there and actually greeted us and answered questions. The sand floor and why it has a sand floor was fascinating information. We stayed for quite awhile to take it all in.

I talked to the warden in my visit right after it opened at 9:30 am (on Dec. 27, 2023). The formal tour requires a minimum of 4 when there was only me. So, I was not really given a formal tour though the nice warden talked with me quite a bit on and off. But it seemed to me that he was worried about the security of the Congregation, presumably due to what had happened in Israel and Gaza. He told me quite a few things. When I asked him whether the sand on the floor was really symbolic for the Exodus of Egypt, he said that there might be 5 stories which are all true, including the fact that the sand wouldn't create much noise when the fishermen stepped in with their heavy boots 😀

It is not really fair to rate this at all. Hurricane Irma had damaged it and it was closed when we climbed the "99 steps" and beyond. Even so the views were amazing as was the glimpses of the tower that dates to the 1600s. It appears the site is still closed, I"m sure due to the Hurricanes of 2018. I hope the tower is not too damaged and that they can open once again.

Went here as part of a tour excursion on a cruise. Interesting. Not sure how tied to pirates the area is but the tower is very cool to climb and the they was great! All the way through the tour the guides were very knowledgeable about the buildings and their. History. They have a pool there that you can use if you want to.

Really loved view from the top of the castle and the backstory on Black Beard and the materials the castle is made out of. Loved the self-guided tours through the different houses and the Rum Tasting Tour is excellent. 70 different types of rum you can try, some available in the U.S. some limited to the Virgin Islands some available only in surrounding like Trinidad and Tobago, and Barbados. I myself was able to get through 32 rums before the liquor took over, you can really taste and feel the difference between the Sweet stuff and the very well aged rum. I will definitely make sure this tour is on my list the next time I come to St. Thomas.

Probably one of the best things you can visit while you're here. $15 to get into the lot, and the panorama you can get at the top of the tower is worth it. The price also includes access to the historical buildings on the west side of 99-steps as well, which they don't tell you. The only room for improvement they have would just be increasing the quality of the guided tours, and of course letting you know what everything you're paying for includes.

Best attraction in the island! $10 per adult and children free! They even have free wifi. The property has several houses and you will need to walk a lot of stairs, but if you're not going back up, all you need to do is let gravity do the work (we had a rental car we needed to go back to, so I felt the anger of the "99 steps"🙂). The view at the top of the tower is beautiful and a must-see (see pic attached). Even though it is a self-guided tour, each stop included a friendly employee that explained part of the history of what we were seeing. There's the tower, a few houses, and three pools you can even use! There's also some gardens and a statue of the "Three Queens of the Virgin Islands" (you'll need to visit to know the full story!) Definitely got our money's worth and would go every time I'd go back again!

Fun tour, definitely great for kids. Staff were the perfect blend of fun and informative. Enough information to be interesting without boring younger audiences.

Great views, you can soak in the pools and have a drink. We did the combo tour and got to taste 25+ types of rums...the pool was perfect to sober up. Lots of history as well!

This place is a quiet little paradise on the busy island of St. Thomas. Our family had a great time here. The flowers and other plants were beautiful and the birds and lizards were fun to watch. We met a small gecko from Madagascar that the very nice woman working told us hitchhiked in a delivery and had been hanging out. The lady working was very kind and so knowledgeable about the plants. Highly recommend for a nice quiet stroll away from the crowds!

Heaven in St Thomas! That’s what this place feels like. Yes, the beaches are beautiful in St Thomas but this place is at another level. If you are looking for something to do in St Thomas bring yourself and your family to walk these magical gardens where you will be greeted by the lovely Miss Ellie. You will breath a tranquil ocean breeze, listen to the sound of exotic island birds and feel your inner self come alive 🌿🦜🐛🐸🦎🌻💚

Beautiful botanical garden on St. Thomas, USVI. The gardens are beautiful and filled with amazing plants, insects, and amphibians. The staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. They have plenty of places to sit down throughout the gardens to take in the peaceful surroundings. The entry price is reasonable and it takes about an hour to get through the gardens.

What a beautiful "little" gem. This was a set in stone must visit on our trip, it ended up being a gloomy day but with how warm it gets, I think it helped us appreciate everything so much more! Layers of beauty here. So happy to explore, learn about and support a wonderful community.

We were blown away with Phantasea Garden. The ladies who worked there were so friendly and knowledgeable. Many of the plants were blooming when we were there and it was absolutely beautiful. Very peaceful just sitting and listening to the breeze. Definitely recommend a visit here.

Great place to stop in a look at the local plants and trees they have growing there. Plenty of wildlife to see as well. I enjoyed looking at the vanilla plants growing wild compared to what im trying to grow. You can even by orchids to take home with you.

The botanical gardens was a great experience to see all the tropical flowers and orchids that were blooming. They also had a spotted turtle cove, birds and tanks with tad poles

This is how great this place is, first of all I don’t do a lot of reviews and I usually wait until I am done. The ciopinno is absolutely amazing and I have had many cioppinos, from the birthplace of cioppino in San Francisco and other parts of the country. The flavors of the sauce is wonderful, spicy but not too spicy, not over savory. The seafood was cooked to perfection. My husband is currently eating the osso bucco and it is very very good. We have had our share of both of these dishes and so far this is the best. 5 stars all around, food, service and atmosphere. The only things we didn’t really like is when we received the bill, we were automatically charged a credit card fee and gratuity, they didn’t give us the option to pay cash or add the gratuity:(

Birthdays and anniversaries are a fun event, with songs that get the whole restaurant singing! Caesar salad 100% authentic with tableside service! (But min. 2 people—it serves 4 easily). Tables are cramped and even with reservations (must have) be prepared to wait. But well worth it. Excellent wine list. Yum!!!

Staff is very professional, they were also prepared for the power outage. Excellent food, soup served from an old school pot which was a nice touch. The restaurant is overwhelmed with paintings of different styles. A little pricey but the experience is worth it!

Very cute and nostalgic place. Drinks were amazing, I had a cosmo. Unfortunately we found a long string of hair in our appetizer that wasn’t ours so we cancelled the actual dinner food. My partner no longer wanted to eat there. I’m sure it was probably good but that dampened the experience for us. Also wait staff is very serious and not as warm. But maybe that’s the norm there.

Consistently delicious with incredible service and an intimate atmosphere. We return for girl’s nights, date nights, birthdays, and just an excuse to eat delicious Italian food. The table-side Caesar is delicious and fun to watch, the pastas and entrees are always delicious, and the espresso martinis and tiramisu are my favorite after dinner treats on island. They also make you feel super special for birthdays, with a big sparkler and music, the whole restaurant seems to chime in to celebrate with you. We’ll definitely return, it’s one of our favorite places, and

The Alfredo dish is from a graduation lunch I went to on the 23rd of May, and a week later, I went back on the 30th for my birthday, and had the Red Sauce dish!! Both dishes were delectable!! The garlic bread was good also, but I learned on my birthday that you must eat it right away because if you don't, it loses its crispness and becomes soft. However, when you take it home and reheat it, it gains its crispness back!! That part is a good thing so because if it wasn't like that and you reheated it, it would be way too hard to eat... Will I go back again, DEFINITELY SO!! They also have a walk-up window in the back, outside (on Back Street), so that if you can't dine in, you can order out or order ahead and pick-up!!!

We were sent here on the recommendation from a bartender and I am so glad we listened. This place is amazing. From the attentive staff, to the fresh food, the art pieces and table side bananas foster. It was all perfect. Yes, it’s pricey but you get what you pay for and it was worth every penny. The restaurant was filled with large parties but we never felt neglected because there was only two of us. The food was to die for. We started with the table side Cesar salad, hands down best I have ever had. We will definitely be eating here again when we return to the island.

Gladys’ Cafe is a cozy, family-owned spot tucked off Main Street. We stopped in for a quick breakfast while waiting for nearby stores to open. I had the 2-egg breakfast plate along with a Bahama Mama—simple, tasty, and reasonably priced. The next day, we originally planned to try a different restaurant, but it was closed—so back to Gladys’ we went. This time, I ordered the Oxtail Special. It was definitely good, but at $36 (as you’ll see in the photo below), it felt a bit overpriced. Overall, the food and atmosphere were enjoyable. It’s a great local option in a central location. Will I be back? Yes good food, solid vibes.

Gladys’ is our go-to breakfast spot whenever we’re in the VI! Unfortunately, we missed breakfast this time (island time got us 😅), but the food was still absolutely delicious. The only small letdown was the “spicy wings” — they were well-seasoned but definitely milder than expected. I was hoping for a real kick, but they seemed more tailored to the American palate. That said, everything else we ordered was fantastic. It always feels like an adventure heading into Gladys — the walkway lined with lush plants is just beautiful and sets the perfect island vibe. Still one of our favorite spots on the island!

Cute spot and opened on Sundays! Waitress wasn’t too familiar with the menu or food but he was great and had a positive attitude. Food came quick. I ordered the Cesar salad and it was delicious! The soups were blah. Had better and this taste canned. Coffee wasn’t good either.

Unfortunately, I did not read the reviews until after my experience at the restaurant. I must say that the path leading to the restaurant is beautiful, absolutely picturesque. Seeing the atmosphere and walking through the alleyway on Sunday morning, I had high hopes for brunch at Gladys'. Yet, my hopes were quickly dashed due to the long wait for order taking, extremely rude Server, and nonexistent customer service. The server notified us that they were short staffed and she was performing multiple job responsibilities. She told us to hurry up and order and looked annoyed when we asked questions about the menu options. She asked us to be patient about the wait, but had no patience whatsoever for us. When our drinks were brought to the table, she informed us that one person's order wasn't available-no cranberry juice. We still felt the disregard and disrespect from earlier and decided to pay for our drinks, cancel our food order and leave. It's a shame they have someone so mean, rude and severely lacking in proper etiquette to represent this restaurant. I hope the owner reads this or someone who cares about that business reads it so they can make a positive change. The offender is near the beverage machine wearing all black clothes and pink crocs. I don't pay people to treat me poorly and we quickly left and went to Indigo 4 for a fantastic brunch and excellent customer service with a smile .

I was so excited to try Glady's Cafe but it was not what I expected after the hype. The protein (curry chicken and steak) were good. The other items on our plate was just ok.. the sides lacked flavor.I wouldn't say it was the best I've ever had. The service was ordinary as was the atmosphere.

The food was not worth it. Minimal seasoning and taste. I’ve had better curry and oxtails in the states. They closed at 3:30pm and we were waiting on our ride which came at 3:32 and they kicked us out and the lady was very mean and nonchalant about it. I would not recommend this place and for $36 I’m extremely disappointed in the oxtails. The curry goat did not taste authentic… everything was an extreme disappointment.

Location and atmosphere are island in this cool, brick building. We had conch fritters, jerked chicken wings, stewed chicken, curry chicken, oxtail special, plantains, mahi mahi sandwich. We also sampled a few cocktails that were ok: pina colada, painkiller, and banana bailey coconut.

With most restaurants closed on Sunday, this place was a godsend. The Hurricane pizza may not be their best-selling item, but as their supreme option, it was good value for us at $29 for a large (14-inch) pizza (a decent price by USVI standards). The toppings slid off the slices, so we just piled them on and folded them up. Thin-crust pizza is easy to devour without feeling you’re going to burst. I also liked the 90s hip-hop playing on the jukebox. However, I’m knocking off a star because they seated us in a booth so cramped that my wife and I literally couldn’t sit across from each other. It was a kiddie-sized arrangement that shouldn’t be offered to adults without fair warning.

We absolutely loved the food here—every bite was delicious! The pizzas were fresh, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. On top of that, the servers were incredibly friendly and accommodating, making the whole experience even better. Definitely a must-visit spot if you’re in St. Thomas!

The food was pretty good. However, the service was completely lack luster. We were the only customers in there and it took about 5+ minutes for us to be greeted by anyone. The two women working were just talking behind the bar. We had to look over at them to finally get our order in. They also had a younger child in there that was one of the workers daughters that was playing on her tablet on full blast. It really hurt our experience. We couldn’t even have a conversation it was so loud. Overall based on sole experience I am giving this 3 stars but the food was a 4. Took a little long to get the food for being the only people but we are pleased with the quality.

Great little whole in the wall pizza shop! Has a good brick over pizza selection and service was excellent and friendly. Perfect place to stop on your way in or out of the St. Thomas airport.

This restaurant was walking distance from our hotel and was listed on the map provided by the management. We selected this place for lunch and ordered the hurricane pizza (cooked in a real brick oven) . It was absolutely delicious!... more so than a lot of the dedicated pizza joints in Austin Texas (where we're from) and a lot of other places/cities for that matter. We will be back for dinner as they have several pasta dishes including fettuccine alfredo , stromboli, chicken parmesan, beef or shrimp tacos, wings, and much more. They have a full bar also. The very friendly wait person was personable and attentive. If we lived nearby, we would be regulars here. Prices were very reasonable...more so than some other nearby restaurants. But, MAN!...was that pizza good! [UPDATE] We returned for dinner. I had the stromboli and the wife had the penne arrabbiata. Both were delicious and HUGE portions. We each took half our order home. Sharing is recommended for small to medium appetites. We had a nice Argentinian Malbec along with our entrée. This is a small, low-keyed restaurant well worth your time (and money).

Went last night, husband got pizza and said it was great, didn’t take long to get. I ordered Chicken Parmesan at the same time as the pizza but it took much longer to get and since we were ready to go I boxed it up as soon as it got to the table. Today I reheated and the sauce is great , the chicken… no wonder it took so long to cook, this is the largest chicken breast I have ever gotten at a restaurant! This thing could feed three people, recommend getting this if you are a big eater or want a meal later. Excellent service and friendly staff.

Just recently relocated to St. Thomas found this small place, and it has become "that place" for me. It's great food. The pizza is THE best I've had. Service is perfect. And the people who work and hang out here are pretty damn cool people. I asked the pizza chef, Al, if he could make me a pizza with an Alfredo based sauce, chicken and veggies and cheese! This is it. . . Omg perfect!

Look up "perfect beach bar," and you probably find a picture of Dinghy's! This is one of my favorite spots in the USVI. Delicious food (esp the poke), ice-cold beers, perfectly-comcocted Painkillers, friendly staff, and toes-in-the-sand dining, all right on beautiful Honeymoon Beach on Water Island. A must-do while spending any amount of time in St Thomas, even if you are only in for a port day. The Water Island Ferry is a short walk from the Cruise Port at Charlotte or a short cab ride from the Havensight Cruise Pier. The ferry leaves every hour on the hour and only takes about 10 minutes. Once at the Water Island pier, a free shuttle (tip the driver, please!) takes you right to Dinghy's! Stop debating and go!

Quick ferry ride over from St Thomas. Had a great time and saw plenty of sea turtles. Bang bang shrimp is phenomenal! Fairly inexpensive to rent a beach chair and umbrella

Visited Water Island, Honeymoon Beach and Dinghy's Beach Bar & Grill on my first full day in St. Thomas. Dinghy's is brilliant, they offer a shuttle from the ferry directly to their slice of heaven. You can rent beach chairs, umbrellas, grab a drink and some of the best bang bang shrimp and fish tacos all from Dinghy's! The live music is perfect, as a solo traveler I felt very safe, and the bartenders are friendly. Service can be a bit disorganized and slow but on an island, where do you really need to be? Follow my growing youtube channel for more videos and reviews! Love and will return, GoCoCoGoxoxo

Suuuuch a cool setting. Great food and great drinks right on the beach. Service was also perfect. Being literally on the beach made this super enjoyable. Next time in the area I will certainly be back. 10/10 would recommend. Go here if you're in the area. You won't regret it.

I am rating this beach as The Best in Water Island and St Thomas! The beachside restaurant was ok. Not outstanding but ok. We ordered several drinks including their classic creamy dinghy 🍹 and the bartender was very generous with those 😉😂 we also ordered the fries, chicken strips and bang bang shrimp but The star of the show was the crystal clear beach 🏝️ Oh my Gosh 😍

What a great bar restaurant.not cheap but really reasonable and the food was really good. The fried fish sandwich was excellent. The beach is so clean and calm. Just a great day at a quiet beautiful beach. 20$ water taxi rd trip to Water island and a free shuttle to Dinghys. The owner is the driver 😎 . Our favorite private beach in all the Caribbean. Plenty to do. Snorkleing w the turtles , kayaks or just chill.

Great food and drinks right on the beach! Bonus that you can rent beach chairs, umbrellas, and more! The beach itself is gorgeous and having easy access to the restaurant by dinghy or golf cart is great!

No problem navigating there. We arrived around 6 pm and it was packed! Not the beach but parking. Majority of people were at the bar - no wonder since they have excellent food and great cocktails! Beach is clean. We enjoyed a beautiful sunset there.

Great place for snorkeling. Found this beach to be less crowded than others. No cost to visit. Saw sea turtles, various fish, jellyfish, sea urchins, squid or octopus, or cuddle fish(?). Sand beach transitions to rocks before water's edge. Bring water shoes or flippers.

Beautiful beach! It seemed like more of a local spot! No chairs or umbrellas up! Lots of boats parked in the water! Very quiet and relaxing! The water is so clear! There’s a boat ramp and even a place to get drinks and food (The Shack) just right past the parking lot, which has plenty of parking.

Wonderful beach, nice water lots of trees and shade. Beautiful bar and grill with nice seating. OK parking nice beach for relaxing walking paddle boarding small boat boating, nice relaxing place to go and just relax. Chill out at the bar have a bite or two at the grill that’s therewonderful atmosphere

Another good beach to stop in at if your looking for one less crowded. There is some food and drinks here. Didn't see any kind of restroom so keep that in mind. You could also get a pretty good sunset photo if you wanted to as well.

Great spot for Sunset as it disappears over the Hillside to the west. The Shack is located a short walk from the beach. Delicious Shrimp and Fish Tacos as well as great cocktails.

We very much enjoyed Hull Bay Beach. Of you want to snorkel, go over to the west side. Tons of fish and the coral formations are cool. The rocky bottom is actually pretty interesting to look at up closer to shore too. No facilities, but The Shack has decent food and very friendly service. Good sand and clvert clear and calm water.

Beautiful and quiet gardens! Parking is up the hill on the right behind the gate. They have peacocks, tortoises and parrots.

Incredible wedding venue and botanical gardens. Doing an event here would never be a bad choice because they have all of the appropriate facilities for entertainment as well as being surrounded by nature and immense beauty. There is a lot to see and do in addition to events. I hope I get to go back one day.

Absolutely gorgeous gardens! Really enjoyed our cruise excursion that included a stop here. They have a beautiful panoramic view and a lovely variety of plants and flowers.

Doesn't appear to be open to the public or not open on Sundays. No information on website. Phone number does not work. Gate closed and locked. Rating does not reflect venue - access and contact availability only.

Gorgeous! Definitely worth the stop! Disregard the older reviews, it is a beautiful place to walk around!

I am an island resident of 1+ year. If you're looking for a way to waste your money and time, this is it. This is by far the most disappointing experience on the island. I understand that this facility has been closed for about 2 years due to covid and lack of cruise ships, but they could have at least made SOME effort to spruce everything up before reopening. The walkways are clear, but many areas are closed or inaccessible. Almost every planter was empty. NOTHING was labeled and the leftover labels that do exist are almost fully illegible. The enclosures for the animals are pathetic and sad, which is the part that was the most upsetting about the whole experience. The gift shop was obviously an afterthought - dark, nothing was labeled, just kinda slapped in there. TL:DR: Go to the other botanical garden.

Sadly during the Covid pandemic this botanic garden has fallen on hard times. Grounds are poorly kept and signs identifying plants are faced out or none existent. Trails are poorly marked and what animals are present do not appear well cared for. Hopefully when more tourists return to the area upkeep will improve.

Nice views from uphill, I saw a rather large iguana which was cool to see up close. Very windy at the end of December which made for good walking temps. It was also rainy but overall nice experience.

Great hike. Harder than expected. Best view from hard-to-find deck. Look for well worn spur 1/4 of way down on the right. Great view of our boat at anchor.

All Trails listed this hike down to the beach as easy, but it's certainly a moderate. Steep most of the way but at least mostly shaded. We took a 7 year old and she had no issues. On the way back up with my 17 year old, only, we pushed hard and made it, soaked with sweat, in 22 minutes.

Moderate hike. Steep hill in places. Rocky. Can be muddy and slippery after rain. There are a lot of crabs and lizards.

If you enjoy rocky, muddy, uncomfortable slogs through the jungle - especially with no payoff or satisfying view at the end - then this is definitely the trail for you. This trail, which ostensibly takes you to some sort of breathtaking Caribbean vista, does not, in fact, end at said vista. It goes from the parking lot at Magens Bay Beach, through some low swampy mangroves, followed by a rocky, ankle-twisting meander up steep hills and sweaty jungle lined with angry plants and resentful lizards, only to have it end in a quasi-parking lot at the top of the mountain. (No view from the parking lot, either.) Somewhere in the jungle, presumably, is a beautiful vista that is either moldering from having its access trail severed by hurricanes; or there is a secret access route known only to locals, and my non-native feet couldn't find it. Two stars because it is a perfectly traversable trail. Minus three stars because I don't enjoy hiking for hiking's sake, and I need some sort of beautiful vista destination to distract me from my throbbing joints and dripping sweat. If you're a granola-noshing trail-trotter who loves angry trees and embittered lizards, you may find this to be more to your liking. Good luck. Video is a poor Hermie crossing the trail whose mobility and joint issues resonated with me.

Beach is beautiful with some good drinks and food.

Not as good as other beaches in the Caribbean, when we were there lots of seaweed about $5 to enter the park, $40 for 2 loungers, parts of the beach not very safe especially in front of lifeguard Station, he advised us to go to the left to get into the sea as much safer. Public rest rooms were disgusting a small child with his father were in front of me and the child said the smell stinks father replied son you have to go others are waiting to use hold your breath and be quick. Said it all.

Gorgeous! A must visit if you're in St. Thomas. $5 entrance free... But because of that the beach is spotless. Definitely need more bathrooms though! The only thing that was really annoying was that there was a big group event taking place while we were there and they were priority we felt like we were literally getting stepped on by the group and staff. Even though we were on the beach first, we got a little pushed out of the way for the group. We we're clearly in a bad spot, by we didn't know that when we laid down & we are still paying customers that deserve to be treated as such.

Magen’s Bay is hands-down one of the most beautiful beaches I’ve ever been to! The water is crystal clear and calm, perfect for swimming or just floating and relaxing. The white sand is super soft and clean, and the whole beach is incredibly well-maintained. There are great amenities like restrooms, showers, and a snack bar that actually has solid food and drinks. You can rent chairs, paddleboards, and even kayaks. The vibe is super chill—perfect for families, couples, or solo travelers. It was only a short drive from the cruise port, and well worth the small entrance fee. If you’re in St. Thomas and skip Magen’s Bay, you’re missing out big time. Can’t wait to go back!

Nice beach, semi private, nestled in the hills. Have to pay for lounge chairs, umbrellas, etc. Picnic tables are free. Decent bathrooms, and bar, and grille.

Gorgeous beach! We stayed for hours to enjoy the sand, surf and sunshine!

Very private and beautiful But be aware that it is a clothing optional beach, and for the most part, nude bathing is what you will find. Strongly recommend it.

Follow the cruise ship schedule and go during the week to avoid large crowds, the beach is gorgeous and the water is always perfect! It’s my home away from home, we come any chance we get.

Simply gorgeous water and views m.

Cute breakfast place and gift shop Grounds are cute w lunch options

Depending on what you are looking for you might find it all here. Great new bar and restaurant, local shops and items you cannot find elsewhere. Good service in an outdoor open air garden setting. And depending on the night the entertainment can be the best on island. Looking forward to new stuff offered by the new restaurant team. The Margarita competition was perfect on National Margarita Day!

Restaurants are tasty, but the DJs they bring in are obnoxiously loud. Bro, it’s Wednesday evening, people are just trying to eat and you’re blowing ear drums out. Totally unnecessary…

Tillet is great. I love to go there and sit outside enjoying the gardens. There are a collection of great businesses there providing a variety of food options, a hair salon, art experience for all ages, an event space, & more.

Very cute hostel community, safe and centered great in between charolette Amalie and red hook for your st thomas stay! Staff is so friendly and if you're into an artsy /garden feel you'll fall in love with it too.

Truly, a hidden gem and incredible culinary experience. The staff was more than accommodating, and the food was truly divine. It was a lovely evening, and the ambiance couldn't be more magical. My favorite by far!

Love what they did with the place, however the restaurant is way overpriced for what you get unfortunately. However, the servers are lovely and accommodating despite the high prices

Food and service were both great. We sat outside where our waiter greeted us with a great big smile. Only wish it was tapas style because the entries portions where to big to order for lunch time of day.

We walked in without a reservation but our greeter kindly fixed up a side table for us immediately. It was not an ideal spot But, the food and service were really Outstanding! We ordered the grilled Octopus which I will never ever forget how good it was. We also ordered the stuffed lobster along with the Spanish Paella Valenciana and an amazing house salad. Excellent place! ✌🏼🤩❤️🦞

We had Cara as our waitress and omg we cannot say enough good things about her. She was knowledgeable in not only the food choices but also the wine selection. She recommended dishes to us but was never pushy and overall just a great listener. She was enthusiastic in the food they serve. It’s so hard now days to meet wait staff who care and are thrilled for you in trying their food. She made the meal even more enjoyable.

CARA IS AMAZING! We ordered so much food and all of it was delicious! The stuffed lobster was beautiful. The lamb chops were scrumptious. The paella was perfection. The serve the freshest sangria I’ve ever tasted. Fresh bread, great salad. The perfect experience

The food and atmosphere are great, service was amazing as well. We went for a special date night and I thoroughly enjoyed the romantic atmosphere. My boyfriend and I split a handful of tapas including the escargot, octopus, mussels, and got a nice Caesar salad as well. The affogato and espresso martinis were great for dessert. We will definitely be back!

This is our second time coming here, and we have never been disappointed by the food or service. The wife had the seafood pasta, which, by the way, is not on the menu, but the chef will make it if you ask nicely, and I had the ribeye steak. Both meals were very satisfying and a treat. Our waitress was excellent and very attentive. We never had to ask for more water or wine in our glass. This place has some of the best food and service I've ever experienced and will always visit when in St. Thomas.

Beautiful little spot off main with all outdoor seating. Excellent service and absolutely delicious food. The ceviche was incredible. Red snapper was perfect and the crab stuffed lobster superb. Our favorite meal of the entire week.

Food was great!!! It was my wife and I first time there. Seating was great and the air conditioning was set at a comfortable degree. There was a big group that slowed down the progress in the kitchen smh we waited about an hour for our food to come out. Wife food was cold so they had to take it back to reheat it. No military discount offered at this establishment :(...

The food was delicious, plentiful, and affordable The music was comfortable and, plenty of free parking. So conveniently located near an ATM, Safari (public transportation), hotel, across from the waterfront, with shoppinh near by, and next to the campaign headquarter's of Molito Smith, governor hopeful. Our waiter was superb. He was patient and polite, and attentive to our party of 8. I will defiantly return.

This was absolutely the best meal I (we - my Wife and I) had on the Island! If you are very hungry, go light on the appetizers and save your surprise for the entre! I had the stuffed lobster and it was a true delight! I don't want to say too mush and ruin it for you, so just go be pleasantly surprised! Food and service with a smile!

The food was good and the staff and owner was great! The only problem I really had was that I had reserved for a large party and was hoping to get a server for the 2 tables. The waitress did her best but we did have to wait longer for everything.

Came to st thomas for 4th of july weekend, we ate at a few different spots but Sabroso was the best. The food , service and ambiance exceeded my expectations. Will definitely go back, mussels and chicken wings for appetizers ,lobster as main course was so appetizing I started eating before I could take a pic...the mac and cheese is a must !

The food was so good! I enjoyed the drinks as well. The waitresses were nice and social, very welcoming environment. I had the drunken ribs which were oh so good and seasoned. That macaroni was so flavorful as well!!! Good drinks during happy hour!

The food here is AMAZING!!!!!!! It’s on the pricey side, but it’s worth it. The salmon was so fresh and even the drinks were exquisite. It was a perfect size, perfect combo, perfect dinner!

Lovely evening at Sea La Vie. Not pictured are the delicious cocktails and appetizer of apple braised pork belly. I enjoyed the best dirty martini I’ve had in a long time (thanks Matt!). They have an impressive wine selection, we were happy to find one of our favorite bottles on the menu. As for our entrees, we tried one of the specials which was veal chops with a peppercorn sauce and fried onions, and one of their regular menu items, the frutti di mare. The veal was perfectly tender. Per our server’s recommendation, we added half a lobster tail to the frutti di mare. The dish had such a light, buttery flavor and their house made fettuccine was the perfect thing to soak up all the goodness. While it might not seem possible, we did save room for the dessert- I suggest you try and do the same. The passion fruit key lime pie was just the thing to finish off the evening! This is a beautiful, intimate restaurant with limited seating, I would recommend calling ahead for a reservation. Or you could always try for a spot at the bar. Every single member of the team at Sea La Vie are absolutely delightful. They did not skip a beat. You can really tell when the staff believes that the food they’re serving is of high quality and truly delicious. Our server, Kara, was so kind and helpful and really made the whole experience so wonderful.

❤️❤️❤️ this place!! Cody and Courtney are the perfect hosts, runs a great restaurant. I can’t say enough good things about this restaurant! We had calamari and bread for appetizers, difference is the sauce they give you. We had the Gorgonzola which can top anything! On to entree and I had the special of the day which was grouper with rice and veggies, the boys had steaks (juicy tender perfection ) and salmon. Everything was good. If you’re looking for a. Place to become your special whenever you visit USVI, make sure to check out Sea la Vie. Hook line and sinker is great and real tourist place, but Sea la Vie is one of those gems that are special. Great food, great ambience, local feeling, great wine selection, and great cocktails!!

We enjoyed Sea La Vie as the last restaurant we visited while on our family vacation. They don’t normally allow kids, but they allowed us to bring our tweens and older teens this time, since it was in the off season. There’s no kids menu, but our kids were cool with sharing the larger adult menu items. I loved my half lobster with mashed potatoes and green beans, and the vegetarians in my family had a salad and Brussels Sprouts. Extended family enjoyed their beef entrees with baked potatoes and fish & chips. Crème Brûlée was yummy, as well as cheesecake and brownie soufflé with ice cream. Our martinis were fabulous. It was nice to see Chef come out to acknowledge us, as well as the owners, who were very kind. This is a small restaurant with great food, wonderful atmosphere, and all kinds of heart! From one restaurant owner to another, I appreciate seeing the “mom & pops” engaging. Will definitely return.

The service and atmosphere were superb. The dishes were interesting and sophisticated. I was not blown away by the food, but I can’t deny that it was expertly prepared. I would highly recommend this place for an elegant and cozy dinner.

This place is a hidden gem in ST Thomas. The staff put in an amazing effort. The menu is well developed and the specials are always great. We visit this place on every trip. Will come back many times.

If I could give this restaurant 6 out of 5 stars, I 100% would! It. Was. AMAZING. Vibe was great, owner seated and waited on us at the bar and was SO pleasant and nice, and service was fast too-admist having a huge party seated in restaurant at same time. But the FOOD was possibly the best meal I have had in my entire life. We started with the calamari, which was so fresh, then for main courses the porkchop is TO DIE FOR and the filet was able to be cut WITH A FORK. Sides were all perfect, delicious and nothing was over-seasoned. And don’t get me started on the passionfruit keylime pie…delectable!!! I can’t say enough about this little gem of a restaurant!!

Best food on the island HANDS DOWN. Amy was amazing. We also had a visit from the Chef, Doug, who asked about the food and our experience. Great food, great people, great atmosphere. 5 stars.

Away from home and our favorite coffee house in Sacramento, California, Sana’a Cafe, we are enjoying the best coffee house in St. Thomas, Virginia Islands Coffee Roasters. This unique flavor of Rock City Medium Roast, has the taste of smooth milk chocolate and stone fruit. They have many other unique flavors to try. Bottom line is they only do one thing and they do it right! Their expertise and passion for coffee is realized in the first sip. Preston is extremely knowledgeable, friendly and really enjoys working here. If you’re looking for good coffee, this is a no brainer. I highly recommend this place. I just wish our resort, Wyndham Limetree Beach Resort or all Wyndam resorts, would offer this coffee in their rooms. But nonetheless, it’s only a skip and a hop from the resort. My husband and I enjoyed the coffee. We will definitely be here every day to support this local Coffee Roaster. ❤️❤️❤️

Whenever I travel, I make it a custom to bring home fresh local roasted coffee to help support those providing fresh roasted coffee options to the local businesses. Not only do I find it cheaper, but also it allows me to bring home coffee as gifts, grind it to my process preference, and have a subtle reminder of enjoying a very nice smooth cup of coffee over a memorable atmosphere. Thank you for having a knowledgeable staff, samples available, lots of coffee bean options (fair trade and single origin) at a very affordable price for the quality of bean and roast, and easy access from the cruise port. I was honestly worried I wasn't going to find coffee to bring back home as all the other locales were either pre-ground, not freshly roasted, and double the price. Double bonus, they offered pour-over travel coffee packs, so I can enjoy an upgraded cup of coffee on the boat if I choose not to hit the onboard espresso bar. That being said, a stop here is a very niche experience and for those who are strictly looking to feed their personal need for coffee in their home setting or as gifts, but making a $10 purchase allowed me to walk away with a free iced coffee that was amazingly smooth that I just sipped in the harbour enjoying the soft breeze and view. Looking forward to stopping here again if I ever make it back to St. Thomas.

Not your typical coffee shop. Limited offerings of cold brew and drip and interesting place. Cool merch.

What a phenomenal roaster! Hubby got a cup of the “sweet, sweet Java juice” and said it is the “best brewed coffee” he’s ever had. We left with lots of beans and a few yummies too! We can even order once we get home. p.s. We found the actual coffee shop in St Croix and OMGOSH my espresso was soooo good!

Very good service and a nice selection of coffee and merchandise. The prices were reasonable and what I would expect at any coffee shop. The outdoor seating created a pleasant way to start the day and enjoy some coffee before heading off to spend time with family and friends.

NOT ACTUALLY A COFFEE SHOP! They are a coffee roaster with a merchandise store front. They do have hot drip and cold brew available as self serve, but that's it. No hand-crafted beverages or food available. Closed on the weekends.

Fresh coffee roasters that you can watch the beans roast in the back of the shop. They have a nice selection of beans and apparel. Free cup of coffee with a $10 purchase. I took home a 1 day old freshly roasted bag of medium roast beans. My wife said they were 'just ok.' Self service.
