Pool towels for the pool was never available to use they were always either in the washer or the dryer . The food was over priced for the guest to stay at the resort and I can’t say I enjoyed eating any of it. The last day I began to see roaches. The only thing I enjoyed was access to the public ocean.

The property is generally in rough shape… - The shower only had really really hot water or cold. - Rust on the bathroom fixtures. - We found a rouge pair of underwear under the bed 😬 - By 9:30am they were out of beach towels. - Breakfast service was really slow, like 50 minutes for to-go pancakes, French toast and coffee. Redeeming features of this resort is the beach being steps away.

They were working on the exterior of the building around the balconies. I had to leave the curtains closed while they were working. The rest of the resort was beautiful.

The Emerald Beach Resort is a beautiful prpoerty but it is outdated with non existent management. The staff is unfriendly and it is hard to tell who is running the resort. It feels unsafe as there are outside locals that seem to dominate the bar and beach area and smoke weed late into the morning hours on the beach while making noise or the man that was sleeping in the pool area that was supposed to be secured to only resort guests. The resort would improve with new management that took care of the guests and protected the property.

I like that the property is right on the water. They had enough chairs and umbrellas that were free for the guests. Downfalls, were the service at the restaurant was very slow, “ island time”. You have to pay extra for everything. Bottle water was 3$. The taxi are very expensive and prices charge by the day. I ended up buying my own liquor, gallon water and snacks at the nearby gas station.

The hotel was located on a beautiful beach in St. Thomas. The staff was professional and very friendly. I gave it a 5/6 for only a reason. Our bathroom floor was seeping water from under the tiles. Although, they tried fixing it, they weren't able to repair it. They offered us to change to another room. However, we loved the room which was on the ground floor with a beautiful view of the ocean. They did accommodate us with extra towels for the bathroom floor daily.

Great location

We love Emerald for our shorter family trips - you can't beat the location and convenience! The venue itself has not been upgraded in years, so wear and tear on the property is becoming noticeable but service is good, and it works well for those who want to use it as a home base.
