This place is a hidden gem! I came solo to celebrate my birthday and it was an absolute pleasure. The bar has a new owner, so the food is great. The balcony view is amazing. You can leave your screen door open at night to hear the ocean waves(it’s safe). Chance is the best bartender lol. The beach is rocky but get some beach shoes(you’ll be ok). Breakfast is included(real cooked breakfast food). The resort has snorkeling gear& kayaking for the guest.Friday nights are Caribbean night at the resort.Go& see for yourself! I’ll definitely be backkkkkk!

The resort for the most part was wonderful. The rooms were clean and had a wonderful view of the ocean. You could hear the waves crashing on the rocks. The restaurant on the property had a very limited menu with just ok food.

It was a decent stay. The room was clean and nice. Two of three light bulbs in the bathroom were out. It would’ve been enjoyable to have good music playing in the restaurant and throughout the property.

The location was great for us. Room was big. The patio was fantastic, on the water with the wonderful sound of the ocean. We would definitely stay here again. Two problems, though. The safe was not set so was inoperable. There was no one there to fix it the first two days. The remainder of the trip, maintenance was too busy to reset the safe. So we had to take everything of value with us. Extremely irritating. Second, the free breakfast was ridiculous. They were not very crowded but service took more than an hour. For yogurt and fruit. Saw many tables walk away the first two mornings. We walked the third. The restaurant is separate from the hotel so I guess they don't care. I'm sure they still get reimbursed for food that was never served. Hotel would be better to reduce the room rate and cut ties with the restaurant. Overall, the place was great and we would stay there again.

When I got the package I was thinking that the Resort was close to the airport but I have a big trouble when me and my daughters got to Saint Thomas and we have to take a sea plane to get to this other island and I have to pay more money to get there I was very disappointed.

We were going to stay one night before moving onto our condo and our flight was cancelled due to weather. Contacted Expedia to get a refund and they called the hotel which denied the refund. I have trip insurance but that’s just dirty business in my opinion when it comes to customer service because this was uncontrollable on my part.

First off , everyone was very nice ! They just have a lot to figure out ! Restaurant has a Vermonter breakfast and Dinner is just bar food ! No real cocktail list either! Garbage around on property but our room was very clean! Just very outdated resort! It was in such a great quiet area but it had no swimmable beach! I did not know this when booked . We felt very safe here but our room was not super private. Loved hearing the waves in our room and the entertainment. Right when we got in our room , the cleaning products they use burned my eyes ! Had to open doors for about fifteen minutes to air it out! Very little pressure in shower and very small bathroom ! We loved Lala though who took good care of us!😉

The resort is beautiful, but the restaurant & pool areas were constantly dirty. The table cloths were deplorable and the chairs and floors are dirty. It appears like no one cleans these areas daily. No toothpaste was provided and there was no where to purchase it on the premises.

The only reason i didn't give 5 stars was the fact that i needed to go to another beach because the access to the beach at the resort was not safe to swim in due to rocks. Everything else was fantastic.

The Tamarind was on a beach by itself away from other hotels. I loved the privacy and beach access. The pool was nice. The staff was great. The bar/restaurant located on the property was nice too. Good food and entertainment.

Beautiful views and clean room. Room service was efficient and tidy. Restaurant on premises was convenient and offered breakfast included with room rate (actually $20pp food credit, with most menu items approx $20pp). Lunch and dinner was limited menu and slow service—not a big problem if you’re enjoying the ocean views and breezes. On site tennis courts were serviceable and provided a nice recreation. Hotel is very convenient 5min walk to Green Cay Marina. Room walls are thin so be prepared to hear your neighbors conversations.

The rooms are located within sixty feet of the ocean with beautiful sites and sounds right outside your back door. There are sitting areas throughout the resort to enjoy with above average dining and drinks available onsite with a friendly staff. The facility is a bit dated but worked perfectly considering the amount of travel we did exploring the island.

Staff was rude and didn’t understand the property. One worker followed me back to the parking area to move my car (after 9 hours of traveling) on a golf cart. She didn’t offer me a ride but snarked at me that I didn’t have to move quicker for her. She was the one cleaning my room I later learned. Tried to find the laundry facility but no one who worked there had any clue where it was. People that worked there also didn’t know the gym code. It was an awful experience due to staff.

This was my second stay in St Criox. Last time I stayed at another place. Tamarind Reef resort was lovely. The room was very cute. The view from the patio was incredible. They give you a $20 per person credit for breakfast at the adjacent restaurant. The food and service was great. Our coffee maker wasn’t working so the very nice housekeeping lady brought her personal coffee pot to our room. She said we’re in paradise and should enjoy ourselves and not to worry about her coffee. So kind. The bar has all kinds of events. The beach is really rocky. You should plan a trip to the west side of the island if you want calmer less rocky beaches. Regardless the view from the rooms patio was phenomenal, staff was great, room was nice and clean, food was good, location was great

From the moment I was checking in there was a problem. The front desk person said they would only accommodate me from 2 nights although I paid for 4 nights. She said the management would call Expedia and they would probably have to move me to a new hotel. (Super inconvenient) she said they would call me to let me know. The next day I returned to the front office and the front desk person said that all was good with my reservation. I received a call the following day asking why my belongings were still in the room. (WTH) I had to leave the beach where I received the call to straighten things out at the resort. The manager accommodated us however it left a super bad impression on my stay in St. Croix. Never again will I stay at the resort and probably not come back to St. Croix.
