Map & Owner's Profile
Year Purchased: 2009
Why the Owner Chose Cowpet BayA colleague owns a unit at the resort and we vacationed at his place three times between March 2007 and November 2008. Each time we visited we immediately felt the tensions of work etc. leave us and we easily slipped into the "island mode mon!" We love the peaceful uncrowded beach where we can sit for hours reading a book and sipping pina coladas. The on-site restaurants are outstanding and the proximity to Red Hook with its shops and restaurants is a real plus. The island has a lot to offer whether you want an active or a relaxing vacation. We loved it so much we decided to buy our own place. My colleague lost one of his best repeat guests!
Owner's Map of Cowpet Bay
We live in southeast Pennsylvania. We have always enjoyed the beach. The opportunity to own a place on the crystal clear waters of the Caribbean, that is available 365 days a year, beat the alternative of a place at the New Jersey shore! We bought the place in early 2009 and immediately completely re-did the kitchen and baths, painted everything and replaced all the furniture. We wanted it to be a place we were proud of and one which our guests would enjoy and want to return to.

We just returned from a wonderful vacation at the Elysian condo in St. Thomas. The location was perfect. The beach and pool were really close to the unit which was very convenient with kids. The kids loved the grotto in the pool and the hot tub. It was very relaxing and not crowded. I loved that we could always find chairs. The restaurants at the resort were wonderful. We enjoyed the casual beach restaurant, Sangria, and the nicer Fish place. There was a cute beach bar next the pool that served great tropical drinks. We also enjoyed the water sports in front of the resort. We loved the location if the condo. It was only e few minute drive to Redhook and many fabulous beaches. The condo was clean and had many ammenities of home. It was so nice having the washer and dryer, sand toys, coolers, ect. The owners were wonderful to rent from and very helpful. We would love to return!

We had a wonderful time at East End Eden. It was even nicer than pictured. The condo was immaculate and very sunny and spacious. The ocean views and proximity to the pool, beaches and restaurants could not be topped. The owners responded promptly to our questions and concerns. We would highly recommend the two onsite restaurants: Sangria's(sandwiches and pizzas) and Caribbean Fish Market(more upscale meals). We also recommend the sunset dinner cruise on the New Horizons sailboat. Can't wait to return to this lovely and peaceful resort. Thanks, Bruce and Sue, for sharing your vacation home with us.

My family had a great time at Bruce and Sue's place. We have been using VRBO and HomeAway for several years and they are the best owners to work with to date. The condo is perfectly situated to enjoy the beach and pool. It has a great view and I would have to say it is one of the best located condos at Elysian. The place is very clean and nicely updated. Bruce and Sue have the condo stocked extremely well and have thought of everything. In all, this is a great condo and I would highly recommend staying here.

We loved our experience. The condo was completely spotless and very well stocked including quality snorkle gear, which was lovely. The beds were extremely comfortable. The pictures are accurate, everything is clean and updated. We loved the view of the pool area. It was also very quiet but central. The new restaurant on the prem was top notch. We also enjoyed great massages at the spa. Red Hook is a great little town with everything you need. There are plently of activity choices on site or up the street at Saphire Beach Marina - including a wonderful sun set cruise and wave runners. The owners are very accomodating, responsive and friendly. We will come back again!

Review Submitted: 01/26/12
This is my 2nd stay at this beautiful condo, and it certainly won't be my last. The condo is in a great location. Myself and 4 friends really enjoy St Thomas and now with this great place to call home for 9 days, we love it even more. Sue & Bruce have thought of everything. We love having the room of the condo, but also the amenities that the Elysian offers (pool, towel service, restaurants and bars). There are plenty of restaraunts close by if you don't want to venture very far, and a grocery store if you want to eat all your meals in. You are 5 minutes away from the ferry to go to St John or the BVI's. I can't say enough about the condo or the owners. I promise you, you will not be disappointed if you rent this place. Thanks again Sue & Bruce!

Review Submitted: 01/10/12
We rented East End Eden for a week in December 2011. The group included my wife and I, her sister and her sister's husband. We were very pleased with the condo and would recommend it without reservation. We have visited St. Thomas several times and found this stay to be the most relaxing and enjoyable yet. The pool and beach are very nice and easily accessible. East End Eden is next door to the Ritz Carlton and very convenient to the east end of the island and Red Hook. The unit has been updated and includes a washer and dryer and WiFi that we found very convenient.Can't wait to go back.

Our stay in East End Eden was fantastic. Sue and Bruce were amazing from the time we first made the inquiry until we returned home. The condo is very well furnished and comfortable. The bedrooms are very spacious and the beds are comfortable. The kitchen has everything one needs to prepare and enjoy a snack or meal. The views from the balcony are great. The pool and hot tub at the resort were clean and well maintained. The beach is very nice with plenty of trees for shade and a designated swimming area. We rented a kayak and paddled a little ways out and snorkeled right off the beach. The thing that I appreciate and was most impressed with was the way Sue and Bruce handled our little problem. One night we returned to the condo to find that the freezer and refrigerator were not cooling. We called them at about 8pm and informed them of the problem. They found someone to come the next morning to fix it (which if you are familiar with the way things work in the islands, you understand how impressive that is) and had a minifrige brought in just in case it could not be fixed. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at East End Eden and are planning to return.

Great Fishing Lodge

Review Submitted: 11/08/11
Four regular fishing buddies decided to stay at Bruce and Sue's place during our fishing trip to the famed North Drop offshore of St. Thomas. While the fishing itself was unusually slow during this trip, the condo was perfect for our group. It comfortably handled four singles and has all the conveniences of home. The wifi was nice, as was the kitchen where we prepared our catch one evening. The view of the beach and the pool is great, and the pool itself is quite nice. We dined out around Red Hook and the yacht harbor primarily, so we did not experience the restaurants in the facility. Finally, our trip was originally postponed by a tropical storm that made fishing impossible, and Bruce and Sue were quite flexible in working with us to reschedule the trip. We would definitely stay again should we return to give the marlin another shot.

We stayed at this condo while in town for a wedding at the Ritz next door. In a word...PERFECT! It is a beautifully decorated condo with all the comforts of home. We especially loved the comfy beds. The views out of every room are incredible! We snorkeled, sailed, paddle-boated, and swam. The restaurant where we ate at the Elysian Resort had just opened THAT day. And, to our delightful surprise, the food was DELICIOUS! I highly recommend the Mango Spinach Salad. I also loved being able to "eat in" and cook our own meals in the top notch kitchen. Overall, a wonderful trip.
