Great vacay spot!

It was our first time to VI and this place was perfect. The views were amazing and Michelle was so nice and helpful! The driveway definitely adds character and some fun to the whole experience. Would love to stay there again whenever we’re back!

This was my second stay at this property and would move in if I could find a job on the island! Beautiful views and hosts were incredible even with my terrible touristy driving! My kids love this place and it's the only vacation spot they've ever specifically asked to return to. I hope we are lucky enough to have a future stay!

Gorgeous views!

My kids and I really enjoyed our stay here. Clean, comfortable beds, plenty of kitchen and beach supplies, amazing views from the two decks. Drive up and down hill is challenging, so I’d definitely recommend getting a rental vehicle with good clearance. I’d stay here again!

Estate Bolongo

This was our 2nd stay. As soon as we walked in, it felt like home. Michelle & Kevin are very easy to get ahold of if needed. The studio apartment is perfect for a vacation of any length of stay and that view is spectacular to wake up to each day! We will be staying here again and highly recommend it!

Spectacular Views

We enjoyed our first trip to St Thomas and found this to be a perfect location to stay. The rental had everything you would need and the view is absolutely beautiful. We didn't really see our hosts much as we spent most of our time out exploring but Michelle was very welcoming and friendly.

Hidden Gem

We had the best time here this week! We loved every moment of our vacation. I can’t say enough about how friendly and helpful our host Michelle was! I feel like we had the true island experience that you do not get to see from a cruise ship or resort. We definitely hope to go back one day!

Seaside Mountain Treat

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Lots of comfy nuances in well organized private living space. Attentive Host provided a sufficient initial orientation as well as local info about food & activities available . Having a car is a must for staying at this higher elevation location that offers slightly milder temps, stronger breezes and stunning views than at beachside.

Fabulous time at a spectacular location

My husband & I spent a week in St. Thomas in this sweet spot. The place was well equipped, with snorkel gear and beach chairs as well as two beautiful balconies overlooking the Caribbean. The apartment was very spacious for the two of us, filled with everything we could possibly need for a wonderful trip. Pay attention to the directions given and you'll find the place with no problem! We cannot say enough about our kind hosts who were responsive to all of our requests. We highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing place to stay in St. Thomas.

Paradise escape with breathtaking views

We stayed at this beautiful location for five nights and we absolutely loved it. The apartment was very airy and bright, the kitchen had all the staples for cooking away from home. We loved waking up each morning to have breakfast on one of the two balconies, watching the sea and boats. We had rented a car to explore the island during the day and it's many beautiful beaches and come back to our little haven after a day out. This location is perfect for anyone who wants to be away from any of the bustle of the large cruise ships that visit the island daily. We also had some adorable cats visiting us daily, which only added to the overall enjoyment of our stay! We cannot wait to visit again!

Just what a soul needs

From day one of reserving this wonderful place, Michelle was in contact welcoming us. The suite was just as described, the climb up the mountain at first a little scary but by day two it was a breeze. The view is wonderful along with the breeze through out the place. We will be returning in November to stay again. FYI people leave food behind for the next visitors. We left alcohol and beer hot pockets beefpatties and some other things.

Lovely stay!

Very hilly area but in our opinion you don’t have to rent an SUV we had a compact car and it was fine. Hammock is broken. Overall it was a great stay only a ten minute drive from red hook, and a 15 minute ride from and to the airport. If your staying here make sure to rent a car because a taxi won’t drive you up to the house. Make sure to bring toothpaste, wash and shampoo. Cute stay and loved the view from the balcony and drapery on the bed. Hosts were easy to get in contact with! Would recommend this location.

STOP looking and book this!

I have stayed at MANY home rentals all over the world and this was at the top of the list. This home should be listed at well over double the price for the view alone! I can guarantee it would be hard to find something else with this expansive view. Beautiful grounds and the home is everything you would need! Stocked with basic cooking supplies as well as beach gear (snorkeling, beach chairs, coolers) I just can’t say enough good things about the hosts either, they are always around to give tips and tricks to make your island experience excellent! I would recommend this home to any and everyone!

Great time in a home-like rental

I had a great time staying at this home-like studio by Bologo Bay. The rental is equipped with many beach and water activity supplies that I find especially helpful during the busy holiday season. Kevin and Michelle are super nice and responsive. Kevin even helped me fixed a part in my rental car when I accidentally pumped into some palm tree driving in the dark. Michelle was nice enough to drop some food for me during my first night when I arrived late, knowing I probably would be hungry. Overall, great place, awesome view, super comfortable bed and peaceful mountain too stay, and amazing host Highly recommend!

Quiet Getaway with Amazing Views

Kevin & Michelle do a great job of making you feel at home. They have great advice and a wonderful, clean comfortable place to spend a vacation. Close enough to visit all the beaches it's easy to to plan to see multiple beaches in a day. Though there are great food options down the hill, it felt great to come home, grill under the moonlight and relax. It's a good idea to arrive in the day time so you can follow Kevin & Michelle's landmarks & instructions to get to the house. It really comes in handy as Google Maps & Waze has it wrong . We rented a Toyota Camry sedan and it was fine to get anywhere we wanted to go. I would book this again.

Great view… off the beaten path

The property itself is wonderful and clean. Very comfy, and cool (we used the AC 2 out of 9 nights mostly because of sunburn 😅). VERY well stocked! Fridge and all the cabinets were full of food and utensils (highly recommend checking it before going to the store, we bought several things they already had). Owners are very responsive and helpful. Only inconvenience is that you mostly need a rental car in this location. You can walk but in the sun, the 15 minute walk uphill is tiring. The sunrises and sunsets on the balcony are beautiful. We mostly ate there. Highly recommend Sunday funday at Bolongo beach! Thanks Kevin and Michelle!

Amazing Views, Cozy, Need Own Transportation

PROS: Place was private, clean, cozy, and like home.Had no WiFi/internet/electricity issues. Stocked, full kitchen and beach supplies! There is a basket full of local menus/excursion options. AC cool enough, fans available, and breeze from the ocean was niiiiiice! Easy to reach Michelle with questions and loved that she gave helpful tips for our trip. Cats and feral chickens are around but not bothersome. CONS: Most taxis won’t come up hill so transportation will be an issue if u don’t rent a car. The car service that was suggested was unreliable. Residents we met while walking Bolongo Hill were not friendly.

Michelle and her husband greeted us when we arrived. They were very friendly and they made us feel at home. Michelle showed us a map and gave us some great tips. The view was outstanding. We enjoyed having our coffee on the deck and watching the iguanas in the tree nearby. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. We slept well. They had everything you need right there. It's close to everything. Just a short drive either way. We enjoyed everything from snorkeling with turtles and sting rays to swimming with a sea lion. Belongo beach resort is at the bottom of the hill. We would often end our day there with dinner and drinks. The hill is steep and no guard rails. I am glad we rented a jeep. They have cats. The black and white one would come visit us every day. That made me happy. I missed my black and white cat at home. We truly enjoyed our stay and hope to come back next year.

Tropical Getaway 10/30 - 11/15/2023

This was our first time staying at Tropical Getaway. WOW!!! The views are absolutely amazing!!! Our room was clean and had everything you may need to make your stay more comfortable, fully equipped kitchen, washer, dryer, small coolers and beach equipment. My favorite was the grill on one of the decks! Tropical Getaway is located above Bolongo Bay Resort, and is located on the south side of the island almost halfway between Charlotte Amalia and Red Hook. It is convenient to many of the island beaches and attractions, and 15-20 minuets (based on traffic) from the airport. Be aware, the road leading to the villa is truly an “island road”... steep & narrow. Kevin & Michelle are the most gracious hosts. They met us on our first day to show us what was where in our room and explained, about getting around St. Thomas. We ran into only a couple small glitches (of our own accord) during our 2 week stay. When we reached out, it was handled promptly. As animal lovers, we enjoyed our daily visits by Compass, with Buoy occasionally tagging along. They really helped it feel even more like home, and helped us miss our cats less. We love St Thomas, and really enjoyed our stay at Tropical Getaway! We are now trying to figure out when we will be able to return! We have no difficulty in recommending a stay at Tropical Getaway! Pat & Sue
