"St. Thomas Margaritaville – Honest Review
St. Thomas Margaritaville has a few strong points, but unfortunately the negatives overshadow what could be a great stay.
Pros:
• The resort itself is clean, well‑kept, and visually appealing.
• It’s excursion‑friendly, making it easy to get picked up for tours and activities.
• The bar and restaurant food is surprisingly good, with solid menu options when the service cooperates.
Cons:
• The staff is extremely rude, unhelpful, and disorganized across multiple departments. Basic requests feel like an inconvenience to them.
• There is no weekly room service, and even when you request it, it rarely happens.
• Fresh towels and bedding are not delivered in a timely manner, sometimes not at all unless you repeatedly follow up.
• Restaurant service is slow, inattentive, and often rude, which ruins the otherwise good food.
• The beachfront is dirty, poorly maintained, and essentially unusable, which is disappointing for a Caribbean resort.
• The resort adds unauthorized charges to your credit card, with no explanation. You have to constantly monitor your account and dispute charges, which is stressful and unacceptable."
