We had an awesome time and would stay here again. There is everything you need right there, no need to feel pressure to leave the area. The place is as advertised and would recommend it to anyone traveling there. Checking in and out was easy and plenty of parking. AC worked in all rooms so resting and relaxing was easy.
The property was fantastic for our family of two adults and six teenagers. The layout was perfect, and the property is well maintained. There are several steps to get from the property on the top floor down to the beach. Not a problem for us, but might be for some. Beach is very nice and was not busy at all during our stay. Great for snorkeling. The pool is also very nice. The bugs are bad. We did not adequately prepare and many of us got hundreds of bites. Sue is fantastic and provided many helpful tips prior to our stay. Every one of the restaurants she recommended was fabulous.
We enjoyed the place very much! Great communication from the owner. Filled me in on all the local go to places. Clean condo stocked with everything we needed. Plenty of room to spread out. Beach literally a minute walk. Restaurants on site. Perfect location to explore other areas of the island.
We had a great time at Sueâs condo. There is everything there you could possibly need. Everything very clean. Beds were comfy. Full size washer and dryer which was wonderful. Great views from balconies and rooftop patio. There was even a few pool toys in the cupboard which our grandkids loved. Only a few minutes walk to the beach and pool. But be aware, quite a few stairs (or steep hill) down to beach. Also 3 flights of stairs up to unit, no elevator. Not a problem for us. Beachside restaurant was good. Caribbean Fish Market restaurant was fabulous. Kids really enjoyed the pool which was not too busy while we were there.A poolside bar serving drinks (no food), but easy to walk over to Sangrias if peckish. Plenty of beds and chairs on the beach. A car is needed to get around the Island. All in all a fabulous stay. Thanks Sue!
This place was great, a true gem of St Thomas! Our biggest problem was who got the loft bedroom upstairs as everyone wanted it! Great views just as you see. The property was awesome with great places to eat and drink, an outstanding waterfront and pool area, as well as spacious accommodations. Speaking with the owner prior to getting there, she made it so easy, and told us literally everything we needed to know! Close to Red Hook for the ferries to go to St John, yet nestled away in a quiet and comfortable space. I cant recommend this enough!!
Stayed in Sueâs 3 bedroom unit Jan 5-12. We were a family of 7 - with 5 adult children. Unit was extremely spacious and kitchen was very well stocked - she even left a basket with sunblock and bug spray for us to use. Loved relaxing at the beach and the pool /hot tub. location in red hook was very convenient. Even though she was off island , she was very responsive to any of our requests/inquiries. Would Defintely love to come back and stay in this beautiful unit !
We had a wonderful week long stay at this property. It was very clean, the host is wonderful and the location and views cannot be beat. Highly recommend and would stay again
Sueâs condo was the perfect place for my family and I. Itâs a great location with a perfect set up for a family of eight and very easy to go to the pool and beach. Lots to do here for a week.
The condo was exactly as advertised. Beautiful location. Sue Lester was so helpful and promp in giving recommendations and any questions we had. I would definitely recommend this!
This property was beautiful. Everything you need is there. The unit was well equipped. The loft was framed in which added privacy for the couple sleeping there. The beach was perfect, great snorkeling. The restaurants on the property were excellent. The owner was easily accesible and made the visit wonderful.
I stayed at this property to celebrate my 50th birthday and when I tell you I was not disappointed at all. Sue was very informative & helpful her property was perfect. I will definitely visit St.Thomas and stay at this property again.
Our family of 7 made our first trip to St. Thomas and stayed at Sueâs home for 5 days and 4 nights. The stay was incredible! There was plenty of room for everyone in our family and the view from each balcony was breathtaking. Sue went above and beyond with communicating and ensuring we had the perfect stay. She also provided numerous recommendations for food, drinks and activities in the area. If we visit St. Thomas again, we will definitely be booking another stay at one of Sueâs rentals.
Our family of 8 had a wonderful stay. The condo was clean and spacious. One of the AC units broke during our stay and Sue had it fixed very quickly. She is an excellent communicator and went over everything before our stay. Cowpet Beach is a beautiful place to stay and very convenient! Will definitely be back!!
This was our 9th trip to St Thomas and by far this was the nicest condo that we've stayed in. Very close to the beach and the pool. There were TV's in the condo but we never turned one of them on. We would definitely stay there again. Sue was a pleasure to work with.
St. Thomas is an amazing place and this condo at the Elysian Resort in Red Hook was in the perfect location. The unit has been recently updated and had tons of space to relax between excursions. Beds were all super comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils to cook your meals, lots of spices and condiments so you don't have to spend a ton to buy a something you will only use a bit of. They could use a new coffee pot, but a minor issue.
The resort itself was very nice including the great pool and beach that we never struggled to find a chair or place to relax.
Being in Red Hook you are close to all the great restaurants and excursion launch points.
Sue, the host, was amazing with her communication and very responsive. Would definitely recommend this place for stay on amazing Island.
This property was fantastic. Our trip consisted of me,my husband,our daughter (10),and our best friends and their 2 daughters (7 & 2). We are quite familiar with the island and love this location due to the restaurants on property. Sangriaâs is great for breakfast, lunch or an early dinner. Caribbean Fish Market has an amazing Sunday Brunch or dinner each evening. The place is just as advertised. All three bedrooms have ample space and private baths. The loft bedroom offers great privacy, as it has been closed off and has a door. All the beds were very comfortable, the ACâs worked very well, which hasnât always been the case everywhere we have stayed. The kitchen is very well equipped, and the updates made to the space were stunning. Having the beach towel service through resort was also a very nice perk. If I had to provide a negative it is the views. They are not the stunning views that you sometimes find in other areas of the Island, however, the amenities make up for it. Sue is AMAZING. Instead of just emailing or sending information through VRBO, she made a personal phone call. She provided so many great little nuggets for the stay. As seasoned travelers to the USVIâs, Sue shared some hidden gems. We have never stayed in the same place twice, just to change it up. I would say that we would definitely stay at this property again. Thank you to Sue and Hue for sharing their amazing home with us. Erin
Our Family has enjoyed this property for years (and still do!) We have given it all the amenities as our home away from home and we are now sharing it with you! We have completely rebuilt and remodeled the interior after the hurricanes and it is ready for prime time!
We chose this property because of its location. It is in the desirable East End, near the Ritz Carlton and a stones throw from Red Hook and the ST. John's Ferry. The resort is beautiful and well-maintained and the beach is a hidden gem! The restaurants on property are excellent and there are plenty of options nearby. We felt we couldn't go wrong, and we haven't been disappointed!
