Marriott's Frenchman's Cove

We just returned from staying in St. Thomas and this beautiful resort last week. The villas are spacious, clean and well supplied. Room service for extra towels, dish soap etc. was slow, they always showed up quickly after I called and let them know it was my second call. The beach is good but be careful, my 7 year old Daughter stepped on a sea urchin, not too fun getting those things out. We never saw the sign that someone said was posted on the beach, there were other victims also. Walk down the middle of the beach and into the water to avoid the little sea creatures. The statement someone posted about the outrageous grocery prices we did not find to be true, I think our candy bar was a $1.50. Shop outside of the marriott for best deals on food though.

Take the day trip to Virgin Gorda, Baths it's fabulous there, take the Inter Island Ferry, it is $70 per person $50.00 per child, includes immigration fees and all. When you get off the boat, try to be one of the first, because the line through immigration can be a little long and is annoying when you want to get the the Baths and enjoy the amazing water and beach, truly a highlight you won't want to miss! Go to COKI BEACH, awesome snorkeling, yes there has been some issues there. We visited 2 times on our trip it is the most outstanding beach on the island, promise! The locals are very nice and the smoothies there are great! Magens Bay is beautiful too, just no good snorkeling, the food here is decent and reasonably priced. Don't miss St. John and Trunks Bay, again fabulous snorkeling here. This was our 5th visit to the Island, it is our favorite!

Family of 5. Stayed Xmas 2009 going back for Xmas 2010. Spacious comfortable condo with beautiful views from every room. Pool located alongside ocean is very relaxing. Kids enjoyed the slide. Took lots of day trips and were always glad to return to the Cove at the end of the day. Food at the pool bar was good and kids enjoyed activities by the pool most days. Went to Aruba for President's weekend- had fun there- but Aruba (on the whole) was disappointing compared to the USVI.

Recently stayed in St. Thomas and purchased timeshare while visiting - beautiful place to stay, great view in every villa - fabulous Marriott property - Morning star beach excellent place to spend the day within walking distance. Great dining! Great views! Great day trips - this is the place to go in the Carribean - safe and fun!!! Location Location Location - easy from airport, easy to downtown. You will love the sunsets and watching the cruise ships appear from around the cliff as they leave in the evening. Highly recommend!

Nice complex - still under construction, but that does not affect much. The rooms are very nice - your typical Marriott Vacation Club timeshare - the timeshare resort itself is lacking a little - we didn't think the menu at Sunset Grill was impressive, there were no wait staff walking around the pool at any time serving - you actually had to go up to the bar and order - not as many activities as other resorts - but with that said, St Thomas is a destination where you go out and experience the beautiful beaches and neighboring islands on day trips - so we understood why there weren't as many activities. We love St Thomas and the very pretty neighboring isalnds - so don't sit by the pool - get out there and experience what the islands have to offer - and not the resort.

Had a great trip here. Loved the accommodations, staff and the setting. Close to the airport. Good food at the Sunset Grill. Great view from our room. The pool and beach are fantastic. They had a few fun kids activities a day led by nice staff.
