About The Experience
A romantic getaway is just what this St. Thomas house was designed for! Whether you're going on a honeymoon, celebrating an anniversary, or just looking for a trip out of town, this Caribbean accommodation is sure to please those in love. Watch the dazzling sunset together from the furnished terrace with a bottle of wine, lounge in the sun and forget about the "real" world, and try something new together like swimming with the dolphins all while vacationing in St. Thomas.
Location Description
The house is located in Dorothea, on the north side of St. Thomas and the nearest beaches are Hull Bay Beach, which is a local favorite, or Magens Bay. Although it is the only beach with a small fee, Magens Bay guarantees a one-mile stretch of white sands, palm tree lined shores, and crystal clear waters. Coki Point is a great beach for snorkeling and Lindberg Bay is perfect for relaxing because it's rarely crowded. For shopping, dining, nightlife, and even sightseeing, Charlotte Amalie, the US Virgin Islands capital, is definitely the place to go. Here there is a large selection of shops, boutiques, restaurants, and historical sites. Daily activities can include kayaking, parasailing, diving, boating, or any other imaginable water sport. St. Thomas also has music, art, and dance festivals and lots of enjoyable attractions that include a submarine ride or an aerial cable car ride to Paradise Point. Needless to say, you will never run out of things to do!
Charlotte Amalie: 20-minute drive
Hull Bay Beach: 3-minute drive

    George, June, 2010

    Overall:
    We had a great time at the cottage. It was very well appointed in a Caribbean-island style.
    Enjoyed Most:
    The patio, deck and pool area were gorgeous. Very private and peaceful. It was great to lie on the float in the pool at night and look up at the stars.
    Enjoyed Least:
    It is hard to find anything to complain about. There was no dishwasher but it didn't bother us.
    Surrounding Area:
    Neltjeberg Beach is accessed by a dirt track just past Thirteen restaurant. The owner showed us how to find it. It is a bumpy, steep 4 wheel drive down, but once there it was perfect. Very secluded, a lot of the time we were the only people on the beach.
    Nearby Events or Locales:
    Charlotte Amelie is a 12-minute drive away, but be aware that all the roads in St Thomas are very narrow, steep and windy. Very exciting driving.
    Tips or Restaurants:
    Thirteen is the closest restaurant and we loved it - and went twice at the end of the vacation. Hull Bay Hideaway was a very low-key joint for the locals, right near the beach, but I had a great burger there for lunch. Northpoint Bistro is close and worth a look.
    Directions:
    The owner took us there the first day, then we used GPS to get around. St Thomas would be very confusing without GPS.
