The property sits on a semi private beach which is beautiful. The property itself is average. The property needs to be updated, however, the rooms are ok. Nothing great but they are roomy and clean for the most part. I love having a beach side balcony. Every unit does. When you walk in the lobby, the doors are manual & the lobby is dusty and full of webs in the ceiling. The dining area also have webs around their lighting and in the ceilings. The ice machine is rusted on the outside. The pool was great. The food was good but it is costly. Some of the staff were great but I think the majority of the workers we encountered were rude (hotel, stores and restaurants, even airport staff) which is not a good experience for visitors. For the price, I think it could be better.

Pool was disgustingly green. Needed serious attention. Beach has great potential but had junk laying around. Bar staff girls were rude even though we tipped very well. All other staff were very polite and gracious. Not very much service to guests staying at tge hotel for what we paid.

This property is very close to the airport and was enjoyable watching planes take off and land. The rooms were spacious and clean. The beach is right off the restaurant/bar. There are plenty of lounge chairs and water sports right there. We rented a car but taxi service was right there when needed. You are 10 minutes from downtown with many shops and restaurants. I would stay at this hotel again.

Emerald Beach Resort was perfect for us. The room was comfortable, and the beautiful beach was just steps away. Restaurant and Bar on site and it's not too far away from other options. We very much enjoyed our stay and look forward to a return trip.

They canceled my reservation because my flight was delayed because of a snowstorm that shut down the airport. It was non-refundable and when I got there two days later they said they already rented the room. I lost 4 nights I paid for and was stuck on St Thomas with no place to go. I called the front desk on the day I was supposed to arrive and they said it was okay they would hold the room. Yet 2 days later when we arrived. They canceled by paid reservation and rented the room to someone else. They should be arrested this is not legal.

The room was exceptionally clean. However I was more wary of too many steps around the hotel. There was no light on one particular area where the steps were, and I almost fell off the steps. Other than that , I really like the hotel and restaurant.

This property is in desperate need of updating. In general the room was clean and the bed comfortable. It was difficult/impossible to keep the shower water temperature consistent. It would go from scalding hot to cool and back to hot. There were a lot of smokers on the property. It was difficult to sit on your balcony and the beach area without smelling smoke. The pool was unusable. Water was cloudy and debris in water. It is definitely not cleaned on the a regular basis. The bartender at the beach bar, Kat, was awesome.

They didn't clean our room. Went to the front desk to get it cleaned, and they handed me towels, a dust pan and a broom. I complained to the property manager in the morning and it was more of the same bs. The water coming out of the shower is either extremely hot or cold, no in between, don't let your kids take an unsupervised shower or your vacation will be ruined like mines was.

We arrived on a Sunday and ordered drinks and dinner. We asked for a clean rag to clean the table but the waiter must have forgot. It took about 45 minutes for our drinks that were served right before our dinner. The burger was partially raw. We went up and got a clean rag and cleaned our own table. There was a lot of litter around the outskirts of the property. The front desk staff was exceptional and helpful. The housekeeping staff was exceptional. The beach was clean. The water was beautiful. The beds were comfortable. We felt safe.
