Great stay convenient location

Condo was very nice and very clean. We had everything we needed. Communication and check in were great. Only downside was that the pool was not nearly as nice or large as pictured but we spent most of our time at the beach! Close to red hook which was great for finding dinner spots. Great stay and would highly recommend !

Great family condo

This condo deserves a 5 star rating for several reasons: It was clean, communication from the property owner was extremely detailed and responsive, the check-in and out process was very smooth and the condo included everything. I’ve stayed at several VRBOs and this place had over the top amenities: bug spray, sun screen, beach towels, pool and beach toys and the list goes on. While I’d give this condo an enthusiastic 5 stars, I wouldn’t give the island of St Thomas the same. Here’s why: it’s extremelyyyy expensive. And we’re from NY where we’re used to high prices but the cost of food was more than NY. Also, we didn’t rent a car which was a huge mistake. The cost of cabs were insane (again more than NYC taxis) so we didn’t leave our area much bc we felt robbed eveytime we took a taxi. However, there are 2 restaurants that are walking distance and you can also walk to the Ritz Carlton for dinner. But I’d still recommend you rent a car, but know they drive on the left side of the road. Lastly, the swim with dolphins activity at Coral World was amazing and I’d highly recommend. Just know you’re spending over a thousand dollars for a family of five to do this, including a hundred for a taxi to take you 5 miles. Again, this place and Kelly were over the top accommodating and I’d give her and the condo rave reviews. But we ended up spending the same amount we would at an all inclusive resort b/c the food and taxis were astronomical. Rent a car!

About the host

Hosted by Brad & Kelly Tower

Host profile image
We are the Tower Family from the Pacific Northwest. We fell in love with the islands in 2016. In 2021, we purchased our family vacation home at Cowpet Bay and have been enjoying island life with our daughter and extended family members as well as our wonderful VRBO guests. When we're on island, we love visiting Sapphire and Lindquist beaches, love the snorkeling right here at Cowpet and enjoy breakfast at Tarpons table every chance we get.

Why they chose this property

When you visit, it's easy to see why we fell in love with the bay and community. We are just two flights of stairs to sand between your toes. Cowpet Bay has great swimming and snorkeling as well as a huge pool (members only) for those days you want a break from the saltwater. We are very close to Red Hook where you'll find everything you need (bars, groceries, restaurants, ferry and charters).

What makes this property unique

Some of the unique benefits of our condo include instant on hot water, potable water from the faucets and instant on generators for when the power goes out (which can happen from time to time on island). We have two lovely restaurants downstairs and an activity kiosk as well. Everything is just steps away, for your convenience.
