Luxurious Condo at Elysian Beach Resort
Year Purchased: 2007
Why the Owner Chose Cowpet Bay
We spent our 30th anniversary with our family in St. Thomas and fell in love with island. After visiting many other islands, we returned a year later looking for real estate. We stayed at the Elysian and realized the location on island, the beach, the facilities and condos could not be beat. We purchased our first condo, VRBO #76523, in 2005 and purchased this one in 2007.
The Unique Benefits at this Condominium
The property is very well maintained. On site there a beautiful uncrowded palm tree lined beach, a large swimming pool with hot tub, a tennis court, two great restaurants, a convenience store, an exercise room (fee), a beauty/health spa (fee), and a sports equipment rental hut.
Many restaurants, stores, boat rentals, groceries, gas station, banks, ferries to other islands, hardware store.

December 20 to December 27, 2008: We had a great Christmas time in St Thomas. Your condo is beautiful, extremely well equipped and in a superb location. We enjoyed the local beaches which was very quiet during the time we were here. Snorkeling around the island was fantastic. We also visitied the BVI’s – a must seeing since half of our party was British. Virgin Gorda and the other islands were great to see. We also went back to Udder Delight a couple of times – delicious!!! Our best meal was Christmas day at Hinds’ Restaurant in St John. Otherwise we enjoyed Duffy’s Love Shack. Thanks for a great Caribbean Holiday.

November 22 to November 29, 2008: Our third visit to your wonderful place and it was just as good and relaxing as the first time. You’ve got a little bit of paradise here at the Elysian. We will definitely be back!! In fact we are due back in March. Finally ate at Budda Sushi. The kids insisted. Despite its outward appearance it was very nice inside and the food and sushi was quite good. Coki Beach is quite the scene but we prefer the serenity of the Elysian beach. Thanks again for your hospitality.

July 5 to July 12, 2008: You have an awesome condo! The place is decorated so nice and can’t wait to stay here again. We enjoyed sightseeing on St Thomas as well as St John. We chartered a boat one day and went island hopping – what an amazing day. Really great food here – Robert’s and Ainsley’s are great. We found the best sushi place ever – “Shinsen”. To top off a great trip was that the other couple here with us – my sister and her boyfriend – got engaged on the beach here at the Elysian!! Very exciting. Thanks again for an awesome vacation.

June 8 to June 15, 2008: Thank you for our comfortable stay in your condo – so clean and nicely decorated. Having a beach and pool so close was great. Stayed here with my daughter, son-in-law, his sister, a two year old, and five month old grandson. We enjoyed Coral World and recommend it to all – fascinating sea life and coral reef. Watched a “fish feed” – fed stingrays, petted baby sharks, and saw a sea lion show. Also had photo-ops in the larakeet (tropical bird) area where we fed nectar to them and they landed on us (especially hats!). Also went to Havensight and rode the sky cable up the mountain (a 7-min ride). What a breath-taking view. The shopping was very reasonable, lots of neat souvenirs that are small and easy to take on plane ride home. A parrot and other tropical birds show was very cute, too. Also went to St John - Truck Bay – really cool snorkeling close to shore. Shopped at Mongoose Junction – loved it. There was a fine Deli sandwich, salad shop in air conditioning (Yes!).

April 10 to April 17, 2008: Our vacation was fantastic! This unit is absolutely beautiful – everything we needed – we’d like to come back again! We had a fun day at St John (took the car ferry over) – driving over there is quite the adventure – go to Skinny Legs, great burgers and drinks. Also enjoyed Latitude 18 and Duffys. Spent a lovely day at Magen’s Bay and definitely stop for milkshakes at Udder Delight. We love St Thomas, everyone is warm and friendly. The grounds at the Elysian are gorgeous – this is the best place to stay. Thank you!

March 7 to March 14, 2008: We truly enjoyed our visit. Your condo and the view is great. We really enjoyed the beach. We took a trip to Magen’s Bay and loved it. Also we took a sunset sail on the “Fury” out of the Marriott Frenchmen’s Reef – “Great”. Found Latitude 18, had the best Nacho’s. Other highlights were shopping and the tram ride to Paradise Point. Thanks again for a great vacation. PS: Wish the cable connection worked better.

February 14 to February 24, 2008: Your condo is absolutely fabulous. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Our children loved their own private little loft area and we loved the layout of the place. Everything is decorated beautifully and it’s very comfortable. We’re so glad we found it! Many highlights of our trip included chartering a boat (the Sea Nymph) and exploring St John and all its lovely beaches, sailing to the Baths on Virgin Gorda on Horizons II boat, discovering that fabulous private beach off of Route 322 that only the locals know about, and dinner at the lovely Havana Blue restaurant in Frenchmen’s Reef. It was absolutely beautiful. The children enjoyed the pool and Ainsleys and we all relaxed and had a really wonderful time. Thank you for being such wonderful hosts and for your lovely condo. It was a real pleasure!
