This property has a beautiful panoramic & breathtaking view of the ocean and St. Thomas Bay. It is close to downtown, and simply beautiful. The rooms are simply appointed and very clean. Libby is an excellent host, making guests feel like you're visiting their home. You'll be well taken care of at Island View Guesthouse. Delicious breakfasts also.

Libby and the staff were beyond kind, caring, and giving. I was stuck on the island due to the hurricane and needed a place for my son and me to stay. With hundreds of others in the same situation, I randomly chose this hotel—and I feel so blessed that I did. From the moment we arrived, I felt truly cared for and understood, especially during such an anxious and uncertain time. What could have been a terrible experience was turned into a calm and reassuring one, thanks to their compassion. I only wish I had stayed here for my entire trip. I can never thank them enough.

The property had great views. The staff was very nice and accommodating. The views to the bay were wonderful. Getting up to the hotel is fairly difficult and it’s recommended that you rent a car to get there. Television and stations are very limited.

This is a lovely looking property from the outside, with a clean pool and a wonderful outdoor seating area for breakfast and drinks. However, the room was in need of a pretty big refresh and did not match the pictures on this site at all. The pictures show bright decorations and linens, rugs, etc. Our room had nothing but the bed with basic linens, a dresser with a few basic trinkets, a very old kitchen with some broken cabinets, and a broken outdoor table on a balcony that had power lines running directly in front of it. It wasn't unlivable, but it definitely was a surprise based on what was shown during booking. The breakfast was small but delicious and the staff was kind. We wouldn't immediately book here again, but we wouldn't not stay if it was the best option available.

Would stay again.

Call to request the cook be on hand for a meal when google says closed. I’d suggest this note be added to the email confirmation. Taxi didn’t arrive as scheduled but owner took our group at no charge. Good views of St. Thomas from the expensive rooms.

Beautiful views and nice people. The small restaurant is closed on sunday night the night we stayed but ordered pizza! Rooms are small but styled and very clean and lots of hot water- which sometimes is an issue o the islands! No bar… just an area with liquor and honor system. Overall very nice stay and close to airport!
