Water Island Campground was a wonderful experience we had 9 days of paradise, staying in one of the canvas cottages (this is nothing like tent camping) loved every minute even the one night of rain that the island needed so much to sustain itself was delightful, cool night with the sound of rain and thunder and not a drop in our cottage. The Hot Tub and deck area with awesome views of the sunrise over St. Thomas. Best plan is to bring some of your food (Even frozen meat made the trip fine in a collapsible cooler in a checked bag) pick up what you need at Pueblo's before getting on the water ferry to the Island, Yes, stop at Tickles for a drink too. We also purchased a multi trip ticket for the ferry on our first trip over and used all ten trips - going into St. Thomas for Carnival (what an experience) also used the Safari taxi to get to Red Hook for only 2.00 each, then took the Ferry to St. John's for a day/nite. Felt like we got the whole Virgin Island Experience without the hassle of all the other tourist, not to mention cost. We loved serenity of cooking at the pavilion overlooking the Cruise ships coming into port on St. Thomas and yes there are pesky mosquitoes so pack the bug spray, but if you forget there is some for use in the bathrooms, which I must say were beyond my expectations for composting toilets and solar heated showers and very clean. Also don't bother bringing shampoo, conditioner and shower gel it is all there for you to use. Celebrating our 30th Wedding Anniversary at the VI Campground was the best decision - not to mention how helpful Paul and Deborah are but you get to know the locals, we enjoyed a day sailing with Karl and Katie, the best snorkeling off Buck Island, cocktails at Joe's Beach Bar and snacks, drinks and Movies with Heidi's. Even had Pizza Friday nite on the Island. Honeymoon beach is a wonderful beach to sit back and watch the day go by - we toured the island by foot, so be sure to bring good walking shoes , Limestone beach , the Fort and Flamingo Point this was a GREAT VACATION DON'T HESITATE BOOK NOW!!!!Recommended for: Sightseeing, tourists without a car, girls getaway, families with young children, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.
Owner response: Thanks so much for the kind words...it's so nice to hear you had a wonderful holiday.. We hope you will join us again. And don't forget, returning customers receive a 10% discount on their next stay. Sincerely, Deb and Paul

It doesn't get any better then The Virgin Islands Campground. My husband and I spent seven wonderful days there. We stayed in the apartment which was bright, sparkling clean and quite comfortable. The setting is absolutely beautiful. The view was unbelievable, I don’t think I’ve ever enjoyed my morning coffee so much. We definitely recharged our batteries there. I can’t remember the last time I felt this relaxed and enjoyed such a perfect night's sleep. The location is fantastic...far enough away from the hustle and bustle of St. Thomas, but close enough that it's only a short ferry ride away. We had great fun exploring the island on a golf cart and loved Honeymoon Beach. Hates off to Debbie, Paul, and Allison...they were incredible hosts that provided excellent service combined with a personal touch that really makes you feel special. This place is perfect for couples of any age and families as well. CHEERS & THANK YOU for a delightfully memorable experience...We can't wait to come back again...soon!Recommended for: Sightseeing, tourists without a car, girls getaway, families with young children, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.

I have been to Virgin Islands Campground 7 times in the last few years. I think you'd be hard pressed to find anything like it, and anything like Water Island in general. The island is a gift, and Deb and Paul share that gift with their guests by creating the unique experience of luxury camping. The screened in cabins are breezy, clean and comfortable, and the pavilion is a great place to meet other guests. I love everything about this place, and if you are looking for a vacation that truly encompasses all that relaxation has to offer, call Deb and book yourself a week at this gem of a find!Recommended for: Tourists without a car, families with young children, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, families with teenagers.
Owner response: You are so sweet...thanks. I hope you're the next Albany resident to win the lottery!! Mitch, every time you're here our guests are blessed. Looking forward to seeing you again. Sincerely, Deb and Paul

The VI Campground was so wonderful. After five days, my husband and I felt renewed and invigorated. It was the perfect beginning to our two week vacation in the Virgin Islands. The campground has all the necessary amenities. For people like me who suffer from email withdrawals, they even provided a laptop and wireless access. To top it all off, the staff at the campground made you feel like you were visiting friends. Everyone on Water Island was friendly and greeted you. Honeymoon Beach was a nice beach without all the crowds you will encounter on the beaches in St. Thomas. Make sure to have taste Heidi's grill chicken sandwich when you are on the beach. Overall, staying at VI Campground was like getting the best of a campground and high price resort at the same time. Make sure to request Cottage #1. It has the best view.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 5/6
