In August 2008, I had to attend a conference in St. Thomas, which was held in a major upscale hotel. Further to be at the conference during the day, I had to work late in the evening, in order to keep everything running at my home office. Instead of staying stuck at a large hotel all the week, with limited... more

We lucked into staying at Island View. Due to flight delays we missed the last ferry out to Tortola and needed to scramble for a place to stay on St. Thomas for one night. A friend stayed at Island View several years yearlier (when it was under previous management) and recomended it. Upon calling from the airport, Beth was friendly... more

The Island View is the place to be in St. Thomas, unless you would prefer to pay hundreds of dollars a night for a Maui tourist-type mega-hotel. We stayed here at the beginning and the end of our sailing charter in the BVI. Wow, are we glad we did! We would definitely stay here again. A few of the amenities... more

My wife and I stayed at Island View for one night on our way back to the states from St. John. We stayed in a pool-side room with AC for $90. After a wonderful and exhausting few days of snorkeling and hiking on St. John, we were just looking for somewhere to lay low for 24 hrs on St. Thomas... more

This was quite possibly the best experience we ever had! Ron, Beth, and Ian made us feel right at home. What a gem! I would highly recommend staying here. You will not get better service or hospitality anywhere else on the island. Our favorite day was going out on Ron's boat. We had so much fun. We even saw a... more

because of good reviews in the NY Times and here on Trip Advisor, I was persistent. I had to call three times just to book my reservation in the first place, and then twice more to ask them to send some sort of proof of my reservation. (Strike One) Perhaps that should have told me all I needed to know.... more

On our way back from St. John, we thought we'd fly home on Monday instead of Sunday so we needed a night in STT. We lucked out and found the perfect place to unwind thanks to all the previous reviews here! We arrived early on Sunday (around 11:00AM) and were greeted warmly. We put our bags up and proceeded to... more

My husband and I were visiting St. Thomas on a company trip and decided to arrive early. We stayed at the Island View for one night when we arrived in St. Thomas and loved it! It was absolutely what we needed after a long day of traveling and before a activity-filled week with the company. The rooms are clean and... more

My husband and I were searching for an island getaway for our 25th anniversary and found a true gem nestled in the hillside of St. Thomas. The owners Ron and Beth were very accomodating and great fun to be around during our stay. They were extremely helpful in guiding us with island excursions. They also will take guests out on... more
