I spent the week and not once did the cleaning staff check the room or even offer fresh towels. For the price and if you've got a week of destinations, its fine for sleeping until the rooster crows in the 5am hour. The island is a neat destination. If the owner if the Castle owns this resort, please put some money into this little gem. An update and staff are all it needs.

Pictures provided to Expedia are completely out of date. Don’t be surprised when you show up and nothing looks the same.
Friday at 8:30 the DJ was set up about 25’ outside our door and there was a residual 65+ decibels in our completely closed room. Luckily they stopped the music at 9:30, but it seemed to progressively get a little louder.
All the walls are paper thin. The room above us in room 23 sounded like it was rino’s racing all night most every night and it was just people walking. You can hear conversations in the room next door, through the walls.
When the bar has something going on, their guests park in the hotel parking and you, who paid for the hotel, will be stuck parking down the driveway somewhere.
Not to mention the room was not clean, the bathroom is ridiculously small and I doubt the shower had been really cleaned in years.
Restaurant had a very limited menu, and we only found the bar restaurant and not the one pictured with the tables and cloth napkins.
Luckily the bed was comfortable…

The property is close to town and has a great view. However, it is in desperate need of a complete remodel. We stayed in an oceanfront king. The bed is actually a queen
The room reeked of cleaning chemicals to the point of making your eyes water. There was barely a trickle of luke warm water in the shower. The cable went out and never came back on, the light on the balcony didn't work, the coffee machine was clogged and blew hot coffee throughout the room, and the hair dryer actually blew up in my hand. I was them accused of smoking in the room because of the odor from the hair dryer. I would avoid this place at all costs.
The restaurant was extremely overpriced and the food was barely edible. St Croix has numerous great places to stay and eat.....this isn't one of them.

Two star hotel in four star location. Cons: dated, bed is lumpy and squeaks, walls are made of rice paper, when folks upstairs walked around, sounded like Thor doing an Irish jig. Pros: walk out the back door and sit on your patio listening to the waves 20’ away. Salt water pool with a small tiki bar and private beach area. Can drive to town in five minutes.

The view from our room was stunning. The gentleman that checked us in, the landscaper, and a few of the housekeeping women were very kind, but the remainder of the office staff were rude and made it apparent that they didn’t want to be bothered with our questions. This was the experience both in person and when we had called with a question prior to our arrival. When we did have questions we were greeted with an “out to lunch, be back in 30 minutes” sign more often than we were greeted by staff. There were a few resident roosters with a pretty consistent 4 AM Wake up call so if you’re a light sleeper, I highly suggest bringing some earplugs. The property is also home to about 15 stray cats that we were happy to adopt for the week. They were definitely friendlier than most of the office staff. The deep end bar on site was a fun place to hang out. Their menu is pretty limited, but the food was good, and the people were very friendly. I booked this property specifically for some of the amenities, such as the gym, laundry, Sunday brunch with bottomless mimosas, and daily happy hour. These activities were promoted on the website, in several emails from the property prior to our arrival, as well as being advertised in our room. However, when we arrived we quickly learned the brunch, bottomless mimosas, and happy hour no longer existed. The laundry facility isn’t actually on site at all, you have to drive to the marina to use the shared machine, and we couldn’t access the gym.

Every room is waterfront so that's good. Value for the money was good. Could use some updates which is why I only gave 4 stars. Staff was mostly good. Bartenders and wait staff very friendly. Beach is not great for swimming but okay for snorkeling. Wish they had a pool more setup for floating than a lap pool. Overall, would recommend for the money.

The room was beautiful. It was very clean when we came. The beach was right in front of our screen door and porch. The staff was so friendly. The food was fresh. They had an event every single night. The only thing is you need a car to get into town when you come to this location it’s not in walking distance to the farmers market, grocery store or the city. Overall, I will be booking here again with a rental car.

This is no frills (see pictures), but really good value for the cost. The view is gorgeous plus there's a beach and pool for kids. There's a restaurant. I wish it had more items on the menu, but realize that it changes based on the daily catch as well. Food is expensive, but that's true everywhere on the island.

Property definitely in need of maintenance. Sliding closet doors did not work and screen for door to balcony torn. Staff removed one closet door so we had access. Bed comfortable though pillows justbok. Bathroom nice and towels good quality. Biggest complaint is that there was only one restaurant on the property (the other one listed is closed). The food at the Deep End was good but service erratic, sometimes fast, sometimes slow. Menu limited. And biggest issue is that the restaurant is not part of the resort. So we had to have a credit card with us, could not run a tab and pay at the end of our visit. Did have a great Caribbean show on Friday night. Best fire dancers I have ever see .

The best thing about the Tamarind is the location and the views. Each room has a private patio or porch with a view of the water - I was afraid the pictures would be too good to be true, but they are real! It was so lovely to have morning coffee and just sit in the evenings and relax. The beach is a very short walk from the buildings with the rooms, and offers lounge chairs, beach volleyball, cornhole, and snorkel gear and kayaks at no cost to guests. The onsite restaurant is under new management and is rebuilding - the menu was limited but the service was excellent. The room itself was nice - bed was comfy and the little kitchenette offered most of what we needed for simple meals. Bathroom is small but adequate. The room got humid if the A/C wasn't running but I'd imagine that would be the same anywhere. Housekeeping was limited and the front desk staff weren't forthcoming with info (did not tell us about the amenities when checking in, and we never found the fitness center). But overall it was a lovely stay and worth it just for the patio and views.

We had a wonderful 4 night stay! The view from our balcony was amazing. The staff was wonderful. The bed was comfortable, and the room was clean. We didn't use the pool, but it appeared clean. The balcony door was very hard to close. I couldn't do it alone. My husband had to close it. The beach is not swimmable, but the view is perfect. The location was great. Only about 7 minutes from the Christiansted boardwalk. The restaurant/bar on the property was nice. If you are looking for a resort type atmosphere, this probably isn't for you. If you are looking for a nice, quiet, relaxing time, it's perfect. Overall, I would recommend this place for anyone looking to relax in paradise!

I think putting resort in the name of this hotel was deceiving. Most resorts have amenities and many options of things you can do around a facility. This one had absolutely nothing other than a bar downstairs that had horrible coffee and at best, mid grade food. The prices were very high and it was just not accommodating for guests. I would not recommend this hotel because there’s nothing in the vicinity to do or to eat. It is not a resort. It is a hotel/inn. If I had to do it all over again, I would choose another place to stay.

I gave a rating of three because there was a beautiful view from the room and the room was somewhat tidy.

The Tamarind Reef Resort has the potential to be great. The views are incredible, the pool is huge and well taken care of and the restaurant has decent food. They have great bartenders and servers that work at the Deep End bar and restaurant. The rooms could use a serious deep clean and the utensils, pans, cooking supplies need a major upgrade. The coffee pot leaks all over, the one pan really needs to be tossed. The resort offers laundry service on their website but that's not the case. There was stains on the sheets. The off white plastic trashcan is so dirty. There is a rusted out safe in the room that doesn't work. It truly is a bunch of little things that need some attention. It could be a really nice resort but there is obviously some neglect that should be taken care of.

Although some things were a bit dated or weatherworn (windows), this is a beautiful property with lovely landscaping, about a narrow beach on the North shore of St. Croix. There is a very good restaurant adjacent to the pool and beach, both of which are lovely spots to spend a day. We made use of the kayaks to paddle out from the marina, which was a lovely experience. Be aware, though, that there is no swimming or even kayaking up to the beaches, as there is a line of reef teeming with spiny sea urchins right along most of the beaches. However, the facilities are very pretty, the staff is responsive, and the staff are nice. The restaurant has just changed hands, so look for recent reviews.

Great view of Buck Island. Restaurant food and drinks are good. The Wi-Fi was basically nonexistent. Got different reasons at the front desk: usually that I was the only one complaining and once that there actually was a problem. Room is as pictured. Nice little kitchenette with some dishes.

The room was clean. The staff was mostly great. There was one person who wasn’t very friendly. There was a battery operated safe in the room that kept beeping at 3am our last night that was very annoying. The room was huge and felt empty because it needs a sitting area and would feel more homey. Also some art on the walls would be more welcoming.

Rooms were average. Could be cleaned more thoroughly. We really only used it as a place to sleep. There’s not really a beach on the hotel, it’s blocked by rocks but is still a relaxing atmosphere. This hotel is best to stay at if you’re renting a car or paying taxis to take you to other spots. Restaurant on site was also average and could use some improvements to the menu and preparation. Overall affordable and nice staff, so if you’re looking to save money this is fine. But if you want a nicer more current hotel with a beach this is not the place to book.

The hotel is old but clean. Could use some updating and repair, but you cannot beat the view of Green Key and the Caribbean from the rooms. The staff is friendly and very accommodating. Having a kitchenette meant we could bring back leftovers and have lunch in the room is we wanted.
Deep End Restaurant and Bar on Property is decent for breakfast and the Friday night Dinner and Show was very enjoyable. Again, the staff, as well as locals who come to Happy Hour, are friendly and helpful to visitors and they are looking forward to new management taking over as of February.

Most of the staff was very friendly. The rooms are dated. The first room I was in, the sliding door handle broke off in my hand the first time I opened it to get a look at the water. The second room's hair dryer didn’t work. I stayed four nights and my room was never cleaned once, nor were any towels offered, and I dod not have a please do not disturb sign on my door, so plenty of opportunity to have it cleaned. Nice location on the beach though, which is truly what the goal was.

Staff were kind and helpful, room was clean and comfortable and we loved the kitchenette! Food is more expensive in the island so cooking helped a lot! We worked out in the gym daily which was great! Kayaking was free and fun! Pool was beautiful but the beach was stunning. We traveled with a family of five and stayed two weeks and they put an air mattress in our room for one of my sons. The beach was stunning with views of Buck island! Deep End restaurant was amazing with the best staff and food! Convenient to Christiansted where we shopped and got a catamaran to buck island for a day of snorkeling! Our room had an amazing view of the ocean! Nothing but good things to say about it! Hope to be back next year! Special thanks to everyone one the staff, they work hard to keep the resort humming and the guests happy!😃

My family and I really enjoyed our stay here at the Tamarind Reef Resort. We loved the staff and the Deep End Bar and Grill was phenomenal!! Chance, the bartender, took great care of us when we would visit. We loved talking with him and Mark any time that we could. Jesus and the rest of the kitchen staff did an excellent job each time. We cannot recommend coming to this hotel enough and hope to be back next year!

staff was excellent, place is a run-down motel, not a resort
inaccessible beach, kiddie pool, far away from town, restaurants and all activities
Needs an update & deep clean! Taxis very expensive to go everywhere.

MUST rent a car!!! Beware, they drive US cars on the opposite side of the road from the states.

Hotel was dead, empty. Town had not much but goods imported from India and Bangladesh. Not a good destination. I would like a refund. This was no vacation.

Yes, everything was Wonderful from the room except for TV problems. Breakfast was very good Alice was amazing and so was Lolly who took care of the room. The front staff were VERY accommodating even had a bottle of Champagne that was requested we had to return it even got credited back for not opening the bottle due to us not liking sweet wine...EVERYTHING was Wonderful !!! We would return in a Heart beat !! Thank you for taking GOOD care of US !

When I first read reviews of Tamarind, the reviews were mixed. I decided to take a chance and we couldn’t have been happier. The room was spacious and clean. The location of our room was fantastic, I walked out with my coffee every morning and was greeted by the ocean. The pool was right there and my daughter loved that. The pool was large, overlooking the ocean and well maintained. The location was great. The staff were beyond wonderful. They were so friendly, welcoming and were eager to help with anything we needed. Special shoutout to Lala, WOW, what a hard worker and a genuinely great person!!! The restaurant also got a bad rap on some reviews, however, the staff were absolutely wonderful, excellent service, and the food was pretty good. I would definitely go here again in the future! Thank you to everyone at Tamarind for helping to make our stay memorable!

I definitely do not recommend this hotel. There’s no room service they never refill the soap or shampoo, or the towels. The beach is very bad and not good for swimming. There are roosters singing all around from 4 am to 7 am if you like to rest and sleep it is impossible. Also there’s cockroaches in the room. There’s better places to stay on this beautiful island.

This was our 2nd stay here. The office staff are great. The rooms are okay, the bathrooms are tiny with small showers. The main issue is the restaurant and bar-while on resort property not part of resort, so make sure you take your credit card. The people who work in restaurant/bar leave a lot to be desired, except one bartender that works week nights, the guy on Sundays is beyond horrible. The restaurant to start has a very limited menu and half the time part of this over priced, bland food is not available. If you want biscuits and gravy beware it can take up to an hour to get, they don't begin making it prior to opening. Eggs they only know how to cook well done. The bar is somewhat boring as it closes at 9 even on weekends. The best thing to do if you intend to enjoy drinks and supper out is to just go ahead and go to town. The food is 100% better, it is more reasonably priced. The beach is okay although there is only a small area can enter water but can snorkel off beach.

Walls were paper thin. It was great to hear the noisy neighbors all the time. It was great having turn up the volume on the tv or have my kids put in ear plugs so they didn't hear the couple loudly having sex next door. Left the first day to find the door didn't lock. Front office just said maintenance doesn't work weekends. Who cares if the room is unlocked was the attitude. Luckily nothing was atolen and thr lock was fixed.

The view from room balcony was spectacular. The staff were friendly and the bedding and sheets were clean but the room was pretty disgusting, especially the floor, shower stall and fridge. Fortunately, K-Mart was having a closing down sale so I got cleaning supplies cheap. I did mention the issue of human hair in every space you can imagine, and was told they would sweep, which apparently they did since they agreed they had found a lot of it. They did not find it all, which is why I went out and bought a broom and wet mops. I could have made a fuss but didn’t want the aggravation. I’m hoping the issue will be addressed for future guests, but I did see after the event a similar review posted a few months ago. I’ll also take the opportunity to mention that

Very quiet area, and everyone was very friendly. The food was disappointing. I ordered wings during happy hour and i was not happy. The wings were still bleeding. The beach was relaxing but you'll need beach shoes do to the stones. A good screening could help. The rooms are not updated but for the price compared to the Buccaneer it's okay.
Last but not least, our flight was leaving at 4pm so i requested a 2hr extension. At $25 and hour i was willing to pay the additional fee but i was told that i had to go through Expedia. I don't understand that. I had cash, plus i booke through HOTELS.com!
Anyway I'll try to upload the pics of the chicken.

Great quiet and nice place to stay

The hotel is in a very quiet and with a beautiful view of the sea and island. The room is large but not much furniture. Sure they have nice size of king bed and two chairs with a round table. But, the room balcony is great with an Ocean view much relaxing after a long day out. I highly recommend the hotel to anyone one a nice quiet place.

Great staff and service. You do need to rent a car because taxi services are pretty steep compared to St. Thomas and the location is very remote and on the opposite side from the airport. Fun activities and shows, great food and happy hours. The staff is very welcoming and they have great recommendations for tours around the island
