Saint Thomas Condo w/ Ocean Views, Walk to Beach!

Reviews

• It's a good option if you can't get another apartment in this resort.

  3/5

  The location is close to the on site beach restaurant and an easy walk down to Margaritaville Beach (which sucks, keep walking and go to Coki Beach!) View is just ok. It is mostly of the hill and vegetation. You can see the ocean to the left side of the balcony. Apartment had a few issues. Shifting glad door is damaged and does not slide well. It is not attached to the block wall on the outsides. Screen doors on it are ripped. Ceiling fan living room only works on low speed. There's a ceiling fan in the bathroom and just the light works. Bedroom faces the exterior entry door out into open air hallway/stairs. Door is installed crooked allowing light and noise in and is paper thin. You will be woken up a few times from people talking loudly in the hallway and doors slamming. The mini split works but is installed in a way that directs the air down the hallway towards the living room for some reason. You should definitely rent a car if staying here as it is a long way out to the road and very hilly and steep. We always found a parking spot close to the apartment. The house manager was very quick to respond and let us check in a couple hours early when I messaged her. No bugs in the house during our 4 day stay.

  Manager's Response:

  Hi Josh, the right vacation home is everything, and we're sorry if this one didn’t fully meet your expectations. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they wanted to share the following:
  - Since your stay, we’ve invested over $1,500 in upgrades, including a new lavatory faucet, a full glass shower panel, electrical work in the bedroom, and refreshed bedding, pillows, throw pillows, and rugs.
  - We’re working with the resort’s management team to address vegetation overgrowth and maintenance of the sliding glass door and entry door.
  - The living room ceiling fan is set to low to prevent balance issues from strong ocean winds, and the bathroom fan is functional when the pull chain is used—we’re sorry if that wasn’t clear during your stay.
  - The resort offers a free shuttle service to Red Hook and other attractions, making it easy to explore without a rental car.
  
  Thanks for taking the time to share your experience!

• Beautiful location!

  5/5

  This place is exactly as described, and I loved the balcony and the view. Every morning, I stepped out onto the balcony to do yoga, enjoying the wonderful slight breeze coming off the water—it felt magical. The kitchen is well-stocked, and the space is both cute and comfortable. When we encountered an issue, the manager was very helpful and responsive.There's a great bar just two flights down that offers excellent drinks and food. You can easily walk to Margaritaville, but be prepared to take your shoes off if the tide is high; the walk there feels like you’re going through a mini jungle. The only downside is the noise from the party boats passing through and the locals on the nearby beach. If you don't mind a lot of music throughout the day and into the evening, it’s not a big deal. However, I recommend bringing noise-canceling headphones if you are sensitive to noise.I would give this place more stars if there were an option. Highly recommend!!

  Point Pleasant is a great place to stay on island. The unit was nice and clean and great location. Host was quick to respond to questions.

  Manager's Response:

  Hi Nellider, we take cleanliness seriously and regret that your experience didn't reflect our high standards. After sharing your feedback with the homeowner, they’d like to provide some additional context:
  - Due to Hurricane Ernesto and the power outages our caretaker was unable to prepare the property in preparation for your stay. Your reservation was supposed to have been canceled, however, due to you being already on the island we permitted your check-in.
  - We understand that you checked in despite the challenges posed by the storm, including intermittent power outages and the balcony furniture being moved indoors for safety.
  - Please note that our property is a smoke-free environment, and we ask all guests to respect this policy to maintain a clean and fresh atmosphere for everyone.
  Thanks for taking the time to leave a review!

• Quick Trip

  5/5

  We typically stay two weeks, but this was a quick two night in and out trip. Point Pleasant is always our go to place in St Thomas. Other condos/rooms we have stayed in over the past 27 years of traveling to the island have better views, but the owner of this unit has invested in nice fixtures and finishes. We were comfortable and would book again.
