"I recently stayed at Margaritaville Vacation Club – St. Thomas (May 19–20) with my husband, and the experience was mixed. We received a warm welcome, and the room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, featuring a king bed, sofa bed, kitchen, and nice bathroom. However, there is no housekeeping service, which may be inconvenient. The on-site beach was very disappointing—covered in seaweed/sargassum and unusable during our stay. Fortunately, nearby Coki Beach (a short walk) was beautiful, clean, and had great food. We enjoyed delicious jerk chicken and oxtails with generous portions. The resort layout is challenging, with rooms far from the entrance and set on hills. Golf carts are available, but wait times can be long, so expect a lot of walking. The infinity pool with a swim-up bar was a highlight, offering great views, though it requires climbing many stairs, which can feel unsafe after drinking. The on-site restaurant was underwhelming—subpar food, watered-down drinks, and weak coffee. Service from our waiter Chris was a bright spot. Note that an 18% gratuity is automatically added everywhere. The vacation club presentation was frustrating due to poor communication—no clear instructions, missing details, and issues booking promised perks like return transportation. Although a manager eventually resolved the taxi issue, the process was inconvenient. Overall, while there are positives, inconsistencies and lack of communication made the stay feel average."

"The king size bed in the room was old with the hump in the middle. The room housekeeping was erratic, a couple of days no housekeeping, a few once a day and a few twice a day. Cleaning of the room was superficial, no cleaning of patio. We did not use the spa.The fittness room was nice but the steam room is at the spa."

"The only issue was the amount of sea weed that was in the water and on the beach. Have no idea how to control that but later in the week it was real bad. The room was great. "

"Great location. Beach was amazing. Restaurant was really good. Snorkeling was excellent. Room was okay. Would stay again. "

"We were given a very nice condo with a very short walk to the beach. It was very clean and had everything we needed. The restaurant and beach bar being close was also very night. Overall it was well worth the money we paid. "

"Amazing"

"Everything was amazing!"

"This place was exactly as described! Place was sparkling clean. Beds were very comfy! Close to areas on the island popular for eating! Also close to the ferry to St John! Would stay again when back on the island! "

"We had a great stay at the villa. The layout with bedrooms upstairs and down was good for multiple families. We also loved the expansive outdoor space. A lot of places to relax and find shade. The kids really enjoyed the pool and hot tub. The property is close to Red Hook and multiple different beaches. We would definitely stay again!"
