Our room was fine, typical motel room with small fridge. No microwaves anymore. Lovely view. Front desk staff were friendly. We did not see a lot of friendly after that except some beach workers. Staff in the sit down restaurant were very slow, don’t expect to see much of them, especially once your food arrives. Food is very plain and unimaginative. And expensive. I wouldn’t return here.

This is not a 4 star hotel. Beach is nice, but when cruise passengers arrive good luck getting a beach chair. Restaurant food is decent but service is understaffed and extremely slow! Waited 3 days for a clean beach towel. Many excuses. Dryer broke, waiting to receive from another resort to they don’t know why there are none. There were some very frustrating moments. Note. There are no elevators!

My husband and I spent 8 nights at the Emerald Beach Resort. The room was adequate and it was located at the beach which was our first priority. There is only a coffee maker and refrig in the room ( sadly no microwave to heat up food to cut down on the high prices of food in St. Thomas) There is a restaurant (high prices for all 3 meals and not so good food) and a place to buy coffee etc. until 2pm. If the above is all you want, then the place is great for you. However, we are used to walking to other hotels and restaurants and, believe it or not, there are none anywhere nearby. So, we took a taxi into town every night BUT it was costly. $9. a person to start and the price gets higher the further you go. So, each night we paid at least $36 for a taxi before we spent a cent on our meals. I would not return for that reason.
