Buck Island Vacation Packages

Not everything was operational in the apt. Lights/fans etc. but was an awesome place to stay.

I would say Bluebeard’s Castle itself is beautiful and has some of the best views on the island. The biggest downside is that St. Thomas has occasional power outages, so the electricity will likely go out at some point during your stay. However, they seem to get it back up and running pretty quickly. A few things to know before booking: only the rooms have air conditioning; the rest of the property does not. The resort is built on a steep hill and has a lot of stairs, so if you have mobility issues, it may not be the best fit. There are elevators on the pool side for wheelchair access, but you may still encounter stairs depending on where you’re staying. They do offer a golf cart shuttle to take guests from the lower villas up to the lobby, which is helpful. As for amenities, there aren’t many included. Food is not included, though they do offer complimentary coffee in the mornings. The pool is fairly shallow at about 3.5 feet deep, and there is a small hot tub. Also, keep in mind that the resort is not located directly on the beach. It’s up on a hill, and the closest beach is about a 15-minute drive away. My favorite experience was Brewers Bay. It had an incredible amount of sea life without having to drive all the way across the island. We saw sea turtles, stingrays, and lots of tropical fish. Overall, despite a few downsides, we had a wonderful time!

Surprised by power outages. TVS did not include guides to determine channels. The restaurant service seemed rather slow.

It’s a stunning, unique hotel. One great way to keep the wrong people from visiting? Tell them that there are no televisions in the rooms! From my perspective, that’s a big plus! And it signals that this hotel, combines luxury, history, and is aimed at the type of traveler who did not come to watch TV..

This place was close to all the amenities and was a comfortable beach side bungalow for grampa to entertain his grandsons and his kids. Cool place. A kitchen to take care of family needs and a step away from beachside bar. The unit itself great for 5 and has 2 nice bathrooms. We had access to snorkeling equipment, beach towels, beach chairs and a great sandy beach.
