Pros:

The pictures did not do the place justice. The stone stairs that you had to take if you wanted to walk anywhere or incredibly inconvenient. The bed is very hard and when I said something about this to the host, they did not offer anything. I had to ask for an extra comforter to put down to even make this day, manageable. Also, I read on three or four different websites that this place had bed and breakfast. When I arrived, I asked the host that gave us a tour of the place and she stated that they had not done that for a while over a year. I was very disappointed. The pool was very dirty and the place was just not what I was expecting. I will not be staying here again.

The property managers made me feel very welcomed and this property stays locked so me and my girlfriend felt very safe the entire trip. Planning on saving more money and will come back to visit asap. Would recommend to anyone and everyone visiting st Thomas

Pros:

The place it’s beautiful. Close to everything and you can walk everywhere. The stairs are a workout, but necessary to stay in shape😂. Mark was superb, courteous and helpful. I recommend “At Home In the Tropics” for a quite, walkable, clean and friendly place to stay in St. Thomas!

Pros:

Property was quaint with an incredible view of the harbor. The room was very clean and was freshened up daily. Owners were very friendly and so accommodating. It was wonderful to have beach chairs, towels, beach blanket, cooler etc provided. The area was very quiet but close to shops and local vendors. Would absolutely stay here again.

Pros:

Mark and Jess were both so nice to us and went way above and beyond! We had an early excursion and they found us a taxi that was willing to wake up early for us…but also promised to drive us if they taxi slept in! Breakfast was great every day and the view is amazing! Great location to downtown where you can walk to in 5 min or so. They also just bought Hotel 1829 which is close by and that looked very nice as well! We plan to go back.

Pros:

This b&b exceeded expectations. The owners could not have been more kind or accommodating. The daily breakfast was delicious, the rooms were beautiful and comfortable, the location was great and their dog gave us so much love & tail wags. Their front office had snorkels, sunscreen, bug spray, beach towels, they have thought of everything. We will 100% stay here or at their new Hotel 1829 on a future trip! Thank you, Mark & Jess!!!

Pros:

Very welcoming . . . and accomodating, during our 6-day stay. The owner went the extra mile and loaned us his phone charger and gave us duct tape for a luggage repair. Breakfast never disappointed us-yummy! Especially fond of the warm lights outside our window on the bank. At Home in the Tropics makes you feel like you are home sweet home. Comfy and chill. Dogs were a bonus addition too!

Pros:

Nice and cozy bed and breakfast.
Magnificent view over the town and harbour.
Breakfast was served every morning, but there was only one choice which might not suit everybody, would have been nice with a more healthy choice as second option.

Pros:

Jess and Mark were remarkable hosts. They offered us snorkel equipment, chairs and a cooler to bring to the beach which made things so easy. The property is just a short walk to downtown to restaurants and shopping. Currently there is construction going on behind the hotel but it really wasn't bothersome. Breakfast was served restaurant style, a varied menu daily and delicious. The hotel itself is rustic, intimate, island style and very comfortable. There are several steps to get in and out of the property but that is typical being on a steep hill. Definitely recommend.
