Top Water Island Hotel Reviews

Bolongo Bay Beach Resort

Bolongo Bay Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent
"We absolutely LOVED our stay at Bolongo Bay Beach Resort! From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed and completely at home. The staff was amazing—so friendly, helpful, and genuinely made us feel like they were happy to have us there. The resort has such a fun, laid-back island atmosphere. We loved being able to relax right on the beach, enjoy the beautiful views, grab a drink, and just soak in St. Thomas without the stuffy resort feel. The food and drinks were great, the property was beautiful, and the entire experience felt personal and authentic. What really stood out to us was the people. Everyone we encountered went out of their way to make our trip special, and that kind of hospitality is hard to find. We came home with wonderful memories and were honestly sad to leave! This was our first trip to St. Thomas, and Bolongo Bay helped make us fall in love with the island. We are already talking about coming back and would absolutely stay here again. If you're looking for a relaxing, friendly, fun Caribbean getaway where you can truly unwind and enjoy island life, Bolongo Bay is the place. 10/10 — we can't wait to return! 🌴☀️🌊🍹"
