Pirates Pension was a Lovely place to stay. It was quiet with a well set up kitchen, and a gorgeous view of the harbour. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub every day. We spent a week touring around St. Thomas and St.John and this spot was perfect as a base. Please note it is up a hill so having a rental car like we did was ideal.

I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised by Bluebeard's. The property had character and our room was quite clean, up to date, and the view was amazing. I highly recommend staying here when visiting St. Thomas.

It was nice. Wish the hotel room would have taken less steps to get to though. But expect lots of steps in St. Thomas

The rooms are really great and everything is clean. The slightly weird thing is there are still hurricane wrecks around the property. We dont mind that a bit and stay here all the time. The kitchenette is excellent for the 3 or 4 day work trips we do here.

This was a great place to stay. You do need transportation to go anywhere. Front desk staff could be a little more happy and helpful. Restaurant and baggage staff are top notch! Would recommend!

Nice stay, great views regardless of floor. Great beaches (especially Megan’s bay - walk all the way to the left it’s super secluded). The only negative things are: the food is mid, you have to taxi basically everywhere, and they rip you off as soon as they hear ur not from the island. Get a restaurant worker to call with the “island boy” accent and you’ll get a better rate.

I would absolutely stay here again! Great location. About $12-19 a person for a taxi most places. Love that th report takes care of a lot for you, need a taxi? They got it! Wasn’t crowded st all, room in the hot tub every night! Great food, good people! Events like live music and karaoke! Near the port making it easy to travel to other islands. Close to duty free shopping! Thank you for everything!

Pirates Pension at Bluebeard's Castle is a great location for a visit at St Thomas. Situated on a hill above Charlotte Amalie you get a great view of the cruise ships and other boats in the water which is within walking distance. It is a hill, so walking is down and up. Nice location with nice rooms. A little noisy on weekends from the restaurants at the port

Having the restaurant on the property was convenient and the food was decent. The pool and hot tub were nice, the room was clean and had everything needed. The wait staff was friendly all around. The castle was closed even though the sign said it was open daily Monday- Saturday which was disappointing.

Spectacular views!

We stayed in a one bedroom suite with a spectacular view. Apartment was very clean. Kitchen amenities were fine, although no skillet. Toured Bluebeard’s Museum which was really fun and interesting. Pool area also had spectacular views. Great location.

HAMIEKA IS AMAZING ! My family and I got stuck here an additional two nights and she was so helpful from start to end . Her customer service was above and beyond from when we got to the hotel and even after . The gentleman with the golf cart is also so amazing . He was the best helping us get around the entire time . I will defer come back here. This is the kind of service one seeks when they leave the comfort of their own homes. They made everything feel great and not stressful ! Thank You!

Overall good location with gorgeous views of the bay. Beds and pillows were i bit to firm for my taste. The room was spacious and overall clean. Except the floor was fairly dirty and the back slider had a broken lock.
