Fodor's Expert Review Pavilions and Pools Villa Hotel
6400 Estate Smith Bay, off Rte. 38, Estate Smith Bay, Saint Thomas, 00802, U.S. Virgin Islands
Perfect for couples craving privacy, the villas here have full kitchens, lots of space, and sunken garden showers. But you also get a private swimming pool right outside your room. The open-air restaurant, built around a fish-filled pong, is a great place to congregate after breakfast or to chat with other guests at dinner. The hotel is not on the beach, but Lindquist Beach is less than a five-minute walk away. Bugs can be a problem at night if you want to sit out by the pool; a can of aerosol spray is the cure.
PROS
- intimate atmosphere
- friendly host
- private pools
CONS
- on a busy road
