Sparkles’ Review of Bluebeard’s Castle Hotel/Resort in St. Thomas USVI

Visit: June 2023
Rating: 4 out of 5 Stars
I spent 5 days and 4 nights at this resort. From the outside appearance, this resort looks aged and in need of being modernized. The staff, rooms, and the spectacular seaside views are truly the golden key to this resort.
The day before check-in, I called the resort to see if an early check-in was possible; check in is at 4:00 pm, and flight was arriving at 1:12 pm. I was told that I needed to check with them once I arrived to see if my room was ready. Upon arrival to St. Thomas, I went to the resort to see if by chance the room was ready or would be ready before 4 pm. The staff on duty at the lobby was friendly and professional. The room wasn’t ready yet but she did my pre-check in paperwork and said that she would call when it’s ready, and all I would need to do when I returned was pick up my key. I never received a call. I returned to the resort at 3:45 pm. The original staff member was not there but another staff member looked up my information and provided me with the key and room information. She was very helpful, cheerful, and professional.
My room was on the 3rd floor of the Hilltop Villas. My room was clean, spacious, appealing, and had a tropical/island feel to it. It had a big balcony with a fantastic seaside view. There’s a kitchenette with a standard size refrigerator, microwave, and stove top. The cabinets were packed with pots, pans, dishes, and utensils. My king size bed was so soft and extremely comfortable.
I ate at The Castle Grill twice. Once for lunch, and the other for dinner. I also ordered occasional drinks. The food was good but could’ve been more flavorful. The alcoholic drinks could’ve been better.
I was looking forward to karaoke night on the Tuesday, but it got canceled. The live band on the Wednesday night was great! I danced a lot and had a wonderful time.
The pool and hot tub were clean and looked inviting, but I did not use the pool or the hot tub during this visit. I went to a nearby beach instead.
Overall, I enjoyed my stay at Bluebeards Castle Hotel/Resort and will visit again.
