    My wife and step daughter stayed at the browning’s condo and had a great time. The condo is centrally located to all the spots on the island. There are three restaurants within walking distance of the condo Iggy’s, Lobster Grill and Mins. We tried all three and were quite pleased. The condo itself met are needs. I would say that it needs a few upgrades to the screens and the bathroom. But overall it was clean and confortable for our family. The pool was right outside our unit, which we used every day. Never very crowded. The Browning’s were very attentive to our needs and were quick to respond to any questions or problems we had. In order to truly enjoy the island, rent a car. I adjusted pretty easily to driving the narrow, winding roads of St Thomas. The first time driving on the left side of the road. Just remember to keep your left shoulder to the left side of the road and you will be fine. Every day we would visit a different beach. The beach at Bolongo is rocky and not a lot of sand. Bring your aqua socks if you go into the water. We took a tour of St Johns and it was the highlight of the trip. Great snorkeling at Trunk Bay. For a family laid back vacation, the Browning’s condo will meet your needs. Bring bug spray as the sand fleas and mosquitoes are really bad.

    We had a wonderful trip to the island of St. Thomas. The location is the best thing about this unit. It was clean and comfortable. It had everything you might need for your stay including beach towels, snorkel gear, cooler for the beach trips, beach chairs and more. We enjoy snorkeling out our front door, pool and resturants too. Only thing we miss was sunsets but had beautiful sunrises to view from our balcony. Taxi into Red Hook for a little nightlife if you want a change of pace. A car is a must to see everyting. Would love to stay here again.

    What a great place! Condo was clean, well appointed and in a perfect location. Five of us spent 2 glorious weeks here and never felt crowded. Prepared many fine meals right in the comfort of our condo's kitchen. We were a bit disappointed with Mim's, definitely let down at Lobster Grille but delighted with Iggies! Also found great food and drinks at Magen's Bay had a blast being entertained by The Fiddler at Latitude 18. The highlight of our stay was 2 days spent on the Browning's boat, Rock On! And Rock we did! Day one was spent with Scot and Leah and day 2 with Scot and Rickey. Both days were an absolute blast and we were treated like royalty by some of the most down to earth and fun people you can imagine! We feel like we've known them forever and will be returning to this piece of paradise. If you want to relax or party down, this is the place to be! Can't say enough good about our experience or all the new friends we made...can't wait to return!

    We found Scott and Leah's 2 bdr condo (Lanai level) to be a wonderful place to spend a week on St. Thomas, very convenient, and right on the beach. Everything was thought of to make our stay comfortable. The pool was right out front, and the view was heavenly. The 3 restaurants right adjacent to the condo were a real plus. The beds were quite comfy, and it was nice having high speed internet. It was very enjoyable vacation!

    Wow! We had a great time on our first trip to St. Thomas and hope to return soon! We loved everything. Very happy with our pick of places. Some cool things we did: day trip to St. John (took the car ferry, snorkeling, at Leinster Bay was awesome (Waterlemon Cay)! Beaches can be crowded on Sundays though. Swimming with turtles just off of Bolongo, Parasailing (very very cool), went to Magens Bay on a day with no cruise ships; went to Coki (nice snorkel; crowded though), and Sapphire. Our favorite places to eat were Mim’s, Iggies, Agave Terrace (fresh seafood) and Amigos (Red Hook). If you’re looking for a gym, try the Jackson Complex at Antille’s school – very friendly, A/C and lots of equipment. We found the best grocery prices at K-mart and Plaza Extra. Overall, we had a great time, beautiful weather and a much needed getaway from the everyday. Can’t wait to come back and best wishes to everyone!

    March 2010 Leah and Scott, We had such a lovely time. Can’t wait to come back. The condo’s location was so convenient. We were here to celebrate the wedding of our daughter. Bolongo Bay did a fantastic job. Everything was perfect. We really enjoyed the closeness of the pool and beach out front. The condo worked out great and couldn't have asked for better. We enjoyed Mim’s and Iggies; they take good care of you and great food. We took the day trip to St. John and went to Trunk Bay beach; Absolutely beautiful! We also sailed on Heavenly days and snorkeled. Perfect weather, perfect wedding, perfect place, perfect time! THANK YOU!

    November 2009 The beach here at Bolongo Bay is so nice and close; right at our doorstep! Warm, crystal clear water and beautiful blue colors! Iggie’s was great food and drink. We went kayaking and rode a trike in Bolongo beach. We saw a sea turtle come up right next to us! Our favorite snorkel was St. John’s Trunk Bay…when we went there, we saw so many gorgeous fish and learned so much about them when we went the underwater trail. If you are into jewelry, you will love St. Thomas downtown and all the dazzling jewelry stores. We rented a car and enjoyed exploring the islands. We even did parasailing off of Bolongo beach. If you have never gone parasailing, you should definitely try it! It is quite an experience and what a view!!! On the last day, we went to Magen’s Bay and went to Udder Delight dairy bar – Milkshakes were Delicious! We finished our days in the pool here at the condos; conveniently right out the door! We had a lot of fun and will definitely be visiting this nice, clean condo again! Thank you.

    November 2009 As all previous have said “This is paradise!” You have a wonderful condo and its surroundings are the best I’ve seen on the island. Everyone was so pleasant and thoughtful; especially pleased with all the niceties of your condo. Iggies was great, as well as Bolongo’s Lobster Grille and Mim’s (Iggies was best on price). We sailed Stormy Petral for a great trip to BVI. We enjoyed watching the iguanas in their natural habitat here – they didn’t bother us and we didn’t bother them. We did all of St. Thomas and also St. John beaches – loved everything and hope to be able to come back to this paradise. You have an island gem here. Thanks for giving us the opportunity to enjoy the islands in a beautiful setting.

    June 2009 Lovely condo; beautifully situated. Just right for the 5 of us. Our son lives on the island so we had a wonderful time with him. We recommend Island time pub in Red Hook (great NY style pizza and casual dining); also enjoyed all the restaurants onsite here. Your picks were right on! We recommend visiting Jost Van Dyke and the Soggy Dollar Bar for a painkiller. Kick back . . .you’re on island time now. Happy days to all!

    June 2009 We are from the very heart of Europe. Far far away from here. But here, we found our own heart, in this BEAUTIFUL surrounding. Incredible beaches. Wonderful people. We are grateful to the owners for this place. We had the vacation of our lives, thanks to you. Everything was perfect, and everyone as well. We enjoyed it immensely and we very much thank Leah and Scott. Hope to return soon.

    May/June 2009 My sister, Linda, and I had a wonderful time staying at your condo. It is very well situated and had an amazing view and everything as advertised (and more). Iggie’s, Mim’s, and the Lobster Grille; all had great food (Iggie’s was our personal favorite), as did the Caribbean Steakhouse & Saloon in Red Hook. We went to Magen’s., Smith Bay, Secret Harbour, Coral World at Coki. Smith’s Bay (Lindquist) is absolutely hands down the most beautiful – but SSHHH, don’t tell anyone, so it stays that way. The full day snorkel sail (Heavenly Days) over at Bolongo is the best thing we did. Very fun and we got to swim with a turtle. Hope to be back soon. Best wishes to all who read this.

    April/May 2009 Cheers Leah and Scott We had a lovely time here in St. Thomas and over in St. John. You have a fabulous location!!! You’re central to everything. Your recommendations to ‘eat, drink and be merry’ were right on! We even asked Charlie at Imperial and received a nice discount on jewelry! Thanks for the trip. We hope to be back soon.

    Leah and Scott . . . Well, we're finally rested and recovering from our awesome vacation and we just wanted to thank you very much. Our accommodations were outstanding with everything we needed. We really appreciated having the notebooks with all the information provided. That helped alot when deciding where to go eat and things to do. Your cleaning ladies are really really good! I wish I could find service like that for my home! We hope to be back next year. Again, thank you so much. I wish we were still there. Kathy

    Leah and Scott Thank you so much for the use of your “Sand Castle.” It is our last day and we are all so sad to leave this paradise. Our trip has been one that we’ll never forget. The beaches here are breathtaking. Some of our favorites are onsite here, and also at Secret Harbour, Lindquist Beach at Smith Bay, and Magen’s Bay. We loved the milkshakes at Udder Delight and had the best burgers at Shipwreck Tavern (Friday’s are ½ off burgers!). We also had a great time at Carnival at Iggies (Wednesdays) and had a terrific meal at Mim’s (Thursday AYCE shrimp – YUM). The snorkeling here and at Secret and Sapphire were nice – we also snorkeled at St. John; very easy snorkeling. We loved the trip to St. John. We did the snorkel trail at Trunk Bay and relaxed at Caneel Bay. The location of your condo is perfect. Thank you so much for all of the detailed information and extras (cooler, chairs, beach gear).. We will definitely recommend your conod to anyone visiting the Caribbean, and will hopefully be able to return as well. Thanks again!

    Feb 28-Mar 6 2009 …..and then we arrived!!! What a find with this Beautiful Condo! Everything you could ask for and then some, including snorkels, chairs, towels, and coolers to boot! Thank you, Leah and Scott for the fine furnishings and amenities and for making our stay a home away from home. Sorry to have to leave ~ at least we missed the biggest snow storm of the season back home,

    Hello Scott & Leah, We really enjoyed the condo last month. It was a great size for the four of us. The views were great, the beds were comfy and the pool was nice. We got up every morning and had coffee on the balcony! It was nice having the coolers there to use at the beach. Also, the chairs were nice to have for the beach. Having a car worked well for getting to all the beaches. Smith Bay/Lindquist is probably our favorite beach. Thank you for letting us use your home for our home in St. Thomas for 10 days. We hope to be back soon! Meredith & Derrick
