"I stayed at Margaritaville Vacation Club St. Thomas for six days. Overall, it was a nice resort that served its purpose, but there were a few drawbacks.
The room was the highlight. It was spacious and included a fully stocked kitchen with plates, cups, utensils, glasses, a Conair hairdryer, an in-room margarita machine, and an ice machine nearby.
The property is nice but feels a little dated. There are two pools, including one with a bar, which was a plus.
Housekeeping was disappointing. Our sheets were never changed during our stay, and after requesting towels, we had to remind staff before they arrived two days later. The phones in the rooms also didn’t work.
The Margaritaville restaurant was hit or miss. The shrimp tacos were delicious, but the jerk pork was not good and had to be sent back.
A special thank you to Elaine “Haiti” at the front desk. She was incredibly helpful with restaurant recommendations, excursions, and answering our questions.
Transportation can get expensive since taxis charge per person, so I recommend renting a car if possible. Be prepared for a timeshare presentation offer, though it’s optional. Golf carts are available to take guests to their rooms, and taxis are usually waiting on-site.
Would I stay again? Maybe. The spacious room was the best part, but the service could definitely be improved."
"We loved this qaint hotel. The pool, the restaurant & bartender & close to waterfront restaurants, shopping and walking distance to the ferry terminal. Very affordable if you don't need 5 star amenities ❤️"
"Staff was wonderful, the view was incredible. Very charming hotel with a resident cat that my son was quite obsessed with and took naps with us in our room. The location is not walkable to anywhere, we had to take taxis to and from downtown anytime we wanted to leave, which is quick and easy just adds up if you’re budgeting. The food and the vibe in the restaurant is fantastic. My only tiny complaint is the walk to the lower villa entrance. A winding path with stairs that is a little dirty and stinky (you pass the back of the kitchen). The other walkways were well tended to, it was just this one for some reason. But a very spacious villa with a huge balcony!"
"I’ve been to the island numerous times but for some reason hadn’t came across Crystal Cove.. With nicely as the location is, how the place is structured & friendly and helpful as the staff is, I will definitely stay again if not make this my go to stay on every St. Thomas visit"
