Rýchly prehľad: A beautiful corporate fortress that charges you for the privilege of being trapped on a cliff.

Recenzované @Neva_TravelsI spent the most relaxing weekend at the Westin on Frenchman's Reef. The ocean view from my balcony was unreal, and I loved the little touches like the hydration stations and the night swim vibes. It’s the perfect spot if you just want to disconnect and be pampered.


Čo povedali hostia

The hype

Beautifully renovated property with amazing pools, but the service is hit-or-miss and the costs add up fast.

Reality check

You will feel 'nickel and dimed'—from the $34 breakfast buffet to the $25+ self-parking fee.

  • You are a Marriott Bonvoy loyalist using points
  • You want a family-friendly pool scene with a swim-up bar
  • You prefer staying on-property for dinner and drinks

Často kladené otázky a skryté tipy

Všetko, čo potrebuješ vedieť pred rezerváciou.

Is the beach swimmable?

Yes, Morningstar Beach is swimmable but can be wavy/rocky. It's a public beach shared with the Buoy Haus resort.

Is breakfast included?

No. The buffet at Shorebird costs ~$34 per person. It is not included in the standard rate or resort fee.

How much is the resort fee?

$75 per night. It covers wifi, welcome drinks, beach yoga, and non-motorized watersports.

Can I walk to Charlotte Amalie?

No. The road is steep, winding, and lacks sidewalks. You must take a taxi (~$10-15/person) or water taxi.

Is there a shuttle to town?

There is a water taxi to Charlotte Amalie (shopping district) for a fee, but it runs on a schedule. Taxis are the main transport.

Are the pools heated?

The main infinity pool is generally comfortable, but some guests complain the adult-only pool feels cold.


Insider tipy

  • Walk over to the Buoy Haus resort next door for a more laid-back vibe and different dining options.

  • Buy alcohol and snacks at a grocery store before arriving; the on-site market is exorbitantly priced.

  • The 'Island View' is often code for 'Parking Lot View'—upgrade if you care about what you see.

5 vecí, ktoré by ste mali vedieť pred cestou

  • 💡The feral cats roaming the property are cute but can be aggressive with food.

  • 💡The 'adults-only' pool is often not strictly policed.
