The property is not well maintained. The beach had trash on it and our view had storage outside of the room. All of the faucets had corrosion on them. The reviews for this property are completely false. We left the property because we weren’t comfortable staying there for 3 nights. 1000 wasted.

Emerald Beach Resort is right on the sand. Great view of Lindbergh Bay from the balcony. You can walk over from the airport and cruise ship is nearby too. Property needs another refurb i.e. refrigerator location under drink prep sink looks bad. Room has a safe. Needs better landscaping, too much bare ground and unkempt plants. WiFi is fast. Pool is small, but we spent most swim time at the beach. Staff responds to all requests. On site beach bar / restaurant is nice and convenient. Beach umbrellas and chairs are complimentary for hotel guests.

I would not stay again. The room are out dated and needs repairs. Faucets are rusty, toilet paper holder kept falling off the wall. Faucet in the bathroom off centered so I had to keep turning it to make sure water stayed in the sink. The property is clean and the beachfront view was beautiful to wake up to each morning. However the furniture on the patio was in poor condition, dented rusted and paint peeling. Also when I booked it said I would receive free breakfast, and there was absolutely nothing free. You pay for towels and beach chairs, you pay for absolutely everything.,

The photos are honestly pretty deceiving. This is an extremely noisy and busy property with cruise ship people being constantly bussed in to use the beach. The beach is dirty, smells like cigarettes / marijuana and has trash. There is constant noise of wave runners and loud music. The hotel rooms themselves are clean, but the simple amenities such as the vending machines don’t work. Constant power outages and cold showers. If you are looking to relax and unwind, I would not book this resort. The vibe severely mismatched the photos and description. We truly felt mislead and disappointed by our experience here. We ended up spending extra money to rent a car just to escape to a better beach.

Family of 2adults/2 teens. From the start, rent a car. The speed limit in most of the areas we visited was no more than 30MPH. It was easy to learn how to drive on the left. The hotel does not provide a shuttle service and taxis are very expensive. Free onsite parking. Once there, nothing is walkable. You’ll spend about $9/person each way to get to the charlotte Amalie area. I was hesitant to book because many reviews said the staff were rude. This is completely untrue! We got there early and could not get into our room. However, we were greeted by friendly front desk staff, given beach towels, & access to the pool. We were able to store our bags by the desk while we waited. We ate at the restaurant on site. Everyone was happy with their food. It is only steps to the sand & beach chairs were readily available. They had hoses to rinse your feet when you exit. Rooms are motel style with no elevator. Our room was very clean. This is the most important thing to us. Housekeeping was friendly and brought us extra towels and coffee when we requested them. Drinks were good at the bar and bartender was friendly. One thing you must remember, and this goes for the whole island, is “island time”. Everyone and every thing is slower than main land USA. Most things shut down by 5pm and are closed on sundays. I’m not sure I personally would classify this as a resort. However, It was very nice and we enjoyed our stay. For the price, we would absolutely stay here again.

Giving this “hotel” a three star review because the beach was very nice, warm, and clean of sea weed. The “hotel” was extremely run down. They call themselves a resort, but offer nothing besides a room and a small restaurant.

It was clear that they cater to cruise ship traffic. When the cruise ships are not in port they scale back their staff and recreation to the bone.

See picture of our “ocean front” room attached to the review.

Come for the beach … stay somewhere else.

I had a fantastic stay. I loved this hotel. I stayed during a 3 night solo trip. This is not a “fancy” hotel by any means, but it is very nice, beautiful, comfortable, and accommodating. My room was very nice. King size bed was very comfortable. I had a balcony and a perfect view of the sea. The housekeeping was great. Front desk staff was warm, friendly, accommodating. Beach access was great. I arrived on a Sunday. The beach was very chill and not crowded at all Sunday or Monday. Tuesday the cruise ship people arrived and it did get very crowded during the day. They left in the late afternoon/early evening. Wednesday was busy by 10am due to the cruise people. That was kind of annoying but unavoidable. The annoyance was more so not being able to get a seat at the bar and slower food service. There’s only one restaurant on site, which is where I ate all my meals, so this affected me a bit. My only other complaint was the roosters crowing non stop starting at 4:45am but I just turned my tv volume up and went back to sleep. I gave 5 stars because overall I felt the resort earned that!

I would not recommend anyone to stay at the Emerald Beach Resort. They did let us check in an hour early which was the only good part about the stay. We arrived on 5/27 and the 1st night my daughter was bit by something and her upper lip was swollen. We were told by jalonna we had to check out and wait for the room to be inspected before we could get another room. Essentially we lost 4 hours of time in our room at the resort.

The 2nd room didn’t have running water. So we were given a 3rd room that didn’t have an iron or hairdryer dryer. Couldn’t fall the front desk because the phone didn’t work so we had to walk. They didn’t clean the room the next day or refresh our rags or towels, instead someone went inside and stole a shirt out of my luggage. It was a matching set and what was supposed to be the clothes I wore home on the plane. SMH.

Staff was not very helpful in the situation saying they’re going to do an investigation but the manager has been sick and they were not sure when she would be back. I was leaving the next morning. When checking out they gave no receipt saying because I booked with Expedia, but they have a hold on my card for incidentals. I want to see what they charge because I have a video of us entering the room and one on us leaving and how we left it. The experience on the island was phenomenal but the resort would get 0 stars from me.

The bar staff is also not friendly if your using the coupon the resort gives you for B1G1 free drinks.

Overall, my stay was pleasant and relaxing. While I did not partake in any excursions, many were offered. The staff was friendly and very hospitable. One morning our group arrived to the dining area early and the server was running late. The chef/cook took initiative to take our orders and start cooking until the server came. We really appreciated that. Expect to pay a little more for services because convenience after all will cost you! Easy access to beach, pool and bar was the best part of my time there. If you dont have a lot of bags and dont mind walking, you can literally walk to this resort. Roughly 12 minutes! Overall, you will enjoy your time here whether you come alone or with family and friends!

This property was ok . Upon check in the gals at the front desk were nice, we asked for an early check in and a room with a view and were able to get an early check in. The room unfortunately was behind a huge tree with minimal view of the ocean. I went down to ask for a room move with a view and was asked to come back later.
We just ended up keeping this room because we were ready to hit the beach.
Beautiful view and lime out accessible from their taco taxi.
The shower was great.
One major reason I would never stay here again is because we got very little sleep, the beds are horribly hard and pillows flat and roosters crow all night long.

The view was amazing the front desk staff and cleaning crew were awesome. The restaurant staff lacked customer service, every experience with the restaurant staff was terrible. I think due to having the gratuity built it in has made the restaurant staff not care or have to try to do a good job due to a guaranteed tip. This made us leave the resort for meals due to the service being so bad. Due to this we would not stay at this resort again, I would strongly reconsider having the gratuity built into the restaurant bill.

The room and linen were clean and cleaning staff was easily accessable for new linens. One thing that was shocking to me was that there are iguanas along side the pool and close to the entrance of our building. I think the resort should have signs about such animals for people who are not iguana friendly. The ceiling of the main lobby needs some serious cleaning. It is filled with cobweb.

You want to be careful where you are walking or will be bringing chicken poop up to the room with you. The restaurant was nice, great views and we had Paul most days and he was a hoot. The smell of pot was everywhere we went around the property couldn't really get away from it. Our room was right above where they rent the jet ski and was worse there. On cruise days the beach is pretty crowded. If you are using this place as base camp and pretty much just sleeping there it is a great price. Close to airport. Close to down town. Taxis are in and out all day, so if you didn't rent a car I think you would get a ride pretty easy. All in all enjoyed our stay here.
