STT-Best Kid Friendly Hotel??

Post by JudyK »

Help! Have no kids & a friend of a friend has asked what hotel in St. Thomas would be good to take a 3 1/2 year old to??? I've heard the Wyndham possibly but have never been there so not sure....thanks!

Hey....we stayed at a condo at the Elysian hotel on STT last summer, and it was SUPER kid friendly....They had a great pool (and beach)....the pool had a waterfall....2 restaurants right on the beach....nice laid back place too.

Bolongo has gotten the nod in the past, but I have not heard anything first-hand in a while.

Cheers, RickG

Bluebeards Beach Club is also very kid friendly. We were just there last week and there were lots of kids at the pool (in the shallow end). All its condos are beach front and it's not situated so far out of town as the Elysian is.

My vote is Secret Harbor. Right on the beach, no hassle with elevators/stairs, etc...

Wonderful food there and great snorkeling right on the property. Small enough to be able to watch small children and feel less like you are at a "huge" resort.

Missing St. John. As always.

I have stayed at that Wyndham Sugar Bay and it seemed like a pretty good place if you have kids. Lots of activities. All you can eat plan to make it easy on a family. The beach there had a lot of rocks, so you have to work your way around them getting into the ocean and the water was not as calm as many other areas, but they will probably use the pool since they have a kid. Way too crowded for my taste. I actually found St. John while on that trip and will never stay on St. Thomas again. I like the quite.
