A wonderful family vacation!
Wonderful family vacation at Hilton! Our two-bedroom suite was very spacious and had amazing water views from both bedrooms and a great balcony where we enjoyed watching the sunsets. The hotel has a beautiful beach and a pool, and the kids enjoyed playing beach volleyball and foosball. We will gladly return!

Although the island is still recovering from the hurricane 5 years ago and the pandemic the property is situated right on the beach in Simpson Bay and if you are not a beach person you have the choice to stay at the pool the staff are friendly and very accommodating you won't be disappointed

8/10 Very Good

Didn’t like the on beach solicitation of massages, beads and beach ware by locals. Didn’t like the noise generated at night by surrounding clubs. Staff was friendly and attentive. Sometimes the beach wasn’t cleaned from the day/night before,

10/10 Exceptional

Wow, were we impressed. Everything is brand new and tastefully done with excellent upgrades. The grounds are impeccable down to the last detail. We would see the groundskeeper out early every morning cleaning the lounge chairs, raking the beach and tidying up. Staff is very friendly. Awesome coconut shrimp and chicken wings at the restaurant. We’ve stayed at their other resort, The Flamingo Beach Club a few times, but like this so much better. Loved watching the super mega yachts go by. My only complaint would be the sheets were on the scratchy side, but we did have nice big fluffy towels. The condo is nicely appointed with everything you need.

10/10 Exceptional

It was an excellent stay. The rooms and the views are fantastic. The service - especially by Stephenson - was outstanding. There is some unfortunate noise on both sides of the hotel from nearby nightclubs who are playing music so loud you can hear it 1/4 mile away, but that's not Hilton's fault. But heads up if you are sensitive to noise while trying to sleep before midnight or 1am. So why 4 out of 5? 2 reasons - First, the checkout time is 10am, which is crazy early. Most hotels are 11 or noon.... So we requested a "late" [noon] checkout upon arrival. We were told we had to check back on Thursday, the day before our departure. So we did, in the morning. Nobody ever called or texted to let us know "yes" or "no", so I checked back in the afternoon and was told they had used them all up, and we didn't make the cut. So that was frustrating. Second, since we booked through Expedia [to combine with flights for easier tracking of everything] I was told that I couldn't add my Hilton Honors number to get credit for the trip. Even though we still PAID HILTON for the stay....also very frustrating. This could have been a 5 out of 5 for us, but little things make a difference.
