Their dog Ocho (a soft teddy bear) came to greet me every morning and when I came back in the evening. Their pool/cabana is quiet and gives amazing views of the city below. The room felt like my own private villa. Also not to mention, in the heart of Charlotte Amalie, a 5 minute walk to local cafes/restaurants and cute shops.
