10/10 Exceptional

Amazing guesthouse!

Despite the insane incline to drive up to the place, thin walls that me and my now fiance had an entertaining listen of a night of another couple, and challenge of finding out the secret method to having hot water (turn on the hot water on the sink first for a while before using the shower lol) the stay was legit incredible. I know it sounds crazy but I’d definitely stay there again. Staff were very friendly and you cannot beat the view of the island. The breakfast was really good and the rooms were comfortable. Check in and out was very easy. I’d definitely stay again.

This property has a beautiful panoramic & breathtaking view of the ocean and St. Thomas Bay. It is close to downtown, and simply beautiful. The rooms are simply appointed and very clean. Libby is an excellent host, making guests feel like you're visiting their home. You'll be well taken care of at Island View Guesthouse. Delicious breakfasts also.

The property had great views. The staff was very nice and accommodating. The views to the bay were wonderful. Getting up to the hotel is fairly difficult and it’s recommended that you rent a car to get there. Television and stations are very limited.

The room was a bit dated but the lobby area was beautiful! An amazing view of the Caribbean while eating a fresh breakfast. The staff went above and beyond to ensure we felt comfortable and all of our needs were met.

Me and my husband James loved our stay at Ocean View Guesthouse because we felt like we were staying in Libby and Marshall’s beautiful home - they treated us kindly and with the utmost respect - kudos to the two of them for running such a tight ship especially with their manager Eileen 😊

My husband and I stayed here for four days for my 40th birthday! We will be back we loved the atmosphere and the staff. Made my birthday the best! Thank you can’t wait to come back!
Christina, 4-night trip

Would stay again.

Call to request the cook be on hand for a meal when google says closed. I’d suggest this note be added to the email confirmation. Taxi didn’t arrive as scheduled but owner took our group at no charge. Good views of St. Thomas from the expensive rooms.
Terri, 1-night trip

We loved our 5 nights! So beautiful. Though you definitely need a car, we opted not to drive, because we wanted to drink.
Ellen Jones, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

Beautiful views and nice people. The small restaurant is closed on sunday night the night we stayed but ordered pizza! Rooms are small but styled and very clean and lots of hot water- which sometimes is an issue o the islands! No bar… just an area with liquor and honor system. Overall very nice stay and close to airport!
Richelle, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Extra clean and well accented.

Wonderful views of the island. I liked the location as it was centric and I could go everywhere at a relatively short distance. The cleanliness of the room and the details were impressive.
Fernando, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

This is a lovely looking property from the outside, with a clean pool and a wonderful outdoor seating area for breakfast and drinks. However, the room was in need of a pretty big refresh and did not match the pictures on this site at all. The pictures show bright decorations and linens, rugs, etc. Our room had nothing but the bed with basic linens, a dresser with a few basic trinkets, a very old kitchen with some broken cabinets, and a broken outdoor table on a balcony that had power lines running directly in front of it. It wasn't unlivable, but it definitely was a surprise based on what was shown during booking. The breakfast was small but delicious and the staff was kind. We wouldn't immediately book here again, but we wouldn't not stay if it was the best option available.
