Top Great Cruz Bay Hotel Reviews

St John Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic place to stay. The managers were so nice, they were always nearby to answer questions and make sure we were having a good time. Our roo. Was kept very clean and stayed cool. The hotel had towels, chairs, snorkels, and other beach equipment for us to borrow as well as sunscreen and other toiletries left behind by other guests. They offer free parking and the hotel is an easy walk into Cruz Bay to get to the taxi stand or shopping/ restaurants. Hope to come back some day!"

Wharfside Village Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I rarely write reviews, but I felt this one was important to share. We recently stayed here and unfortunately had an issue with unexpected construction taking place in the building during our stay. The noise significantly impacted our ability to enjoy the property during the daytime, and I was admittedly very disappointed with the situation. However, what happened afterward completely changed my opinion. I reached out to management after our stay and explained my frustration. I made it clear that I was not asking for a full refund—I simply felt the inconvenience should be acknowledged with some reasonable compensation. Their response went far beyond what I expected. They apologized, took responsibility for the situation, and processed a full refund for our stay. I believe you learn a lot more about a business by how they handle a problem than when everything goes perfectly. Problems happen. What matters is whether a company listens to its customers and makes things right. They absolutely did. I also want to specifically recognize Adam, who was extremely kind, professional, and apologetic throughout our stay. I appreciate the way management ultimately handled the situation. They didn't just acknowledge my concerns—they went above and beyond to m"

Inn at Tamarind Court

8/10 Good

"This place was interesting. We spent four days here and honestly really loved it but there are some pros and cons. PROS: -excellent location with a grocery store around the corner and just a 3 minute walk to Cruz bay -room was spacious -restaurant was OUTSTANDING -the whole staff made you feel like family and some guy even gave us some bananas he grows himself that was cool -complimentary breakfast (a delicious sweet bread with fruit and coffee or juice is included, they serve you at the restaurant) -room was very clean and tidy -outside foot wash for sand -felt intimate -they provided beach towels, beach bag, and 30 spf sunscreen if needed -a big list of things to do and how to get places around St. John CONS: -no on site laundry although the laundromat is like a one minute walk but is a bit pricey -housekeeping is once a week (not a huge con for us but it may be for some people) -BED and PILLOWS were TERRIBLE! Spring mattress was incredibly worn and pretty uncomfortable -its location is an uphill walk that can be a little intense for some people Overall the pros out weigh the cons for us and we will be rebooking here. The price was fair for what they offer (we went in the offseason) but you can’t beat this location and it seemed a lot of locals really loved it here."

Sea Shore Allure

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay at Sea Shore Allure was amazing! The property is so clean and absolutely beautiful. The owners were so professional and accommodating. I truly cannot say enough about this special place! We will be staying here again when we return to St. John!"

Coconut Coast Villas

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed in a top floor condo with an outdoor balcony where you could sit and sip coffee in the morning watching the car barges plying between St. Thomas and St. John. The a/c worked fine. Management provided fins, snorkeling gear and beach towels. We fixed dinner in the unit, and it had basic pots, pans and utensils. All in all, a fine place. I would return there."

The Hills, St John

10/10 Excellent

"My wife and I stayed at 'Villa Poinciana' at The Hills for five nights for our 10th anniversary. The Hills location is far enough off the beaten path that there was not much noise or vehicle traffic in our area, yet close enough to be very convenient to get into Cruz Bay via a quick taxi ride of about five minutes. Though not far from town, I would not advise walking into Cruz Bay from this location, as the roads are quite steep with little room on either side of the road for foot traffic in many areas without walking on the road itself. The villa was extremely clean and as advertised. The view over Cruz Bay was simply amazing from the living room and balcony. I highly recommend this villa and The Hills in general. Scott, the on-site concierge, was friendly, very knowledgeable of the area, and a nice source of answers for any questions we had. We enjoyed chatting with him periodically and he was always sure to ask if we needed anything and how our stay was going. We had a wonderful time!"
