Location, location, location!!!
Being on the first floor (no hiking up/down stairs) with a patio and veranda, with ability to walk out to the beach area was awesome. The unit faces so that it was always shady on the patio/veranda, except in the very early morning (before we were up).
The unit is located halfway between the bar/food/shops and the pool, and the beach area is large in front of the unit so that other guests were not walking back/forth directly in front of the unit, lots of privacy considering the location.
For dining, we could get great food (burgers, pizza, etc.) at the bar area, or take 5 min taxi ride into Red Hook where there are several good restaurants (make reservations in high season), as well as a grocery store and a drug store.
Red Hook is also where the ferry is, which made it easy to get to beautiful Trunk Bay on St. John where the water is crystal clear, the sand is super fine and there's an underwater snorkeling trail.
The unit could use some updating but we spent most of our time elsewhere so it wasn't a bother for us.
All things considered, it was great!
