US Virgin St Thomas Resorts- Marriott Beach Resort

Marriott Frenchman's Reef and Morning Star Beach Resort St Thomas ****

Marriott St Thomas: Oceanside resort with cliff-face and beach pools
Occupying a peninsula between Charlotte Amalie harbor and the sea, this resort features clifftop views and a half-mile beach.

The 504 guestrooms are housed in two sections, one built into and atop a sea-view cliff and the other beside the beach.

The resort has two large swimming pools—one curving around the cliff face and another adjacent to the beach.

Accented with fieldstone, bamboo, and wood, the resort's open-air lobby is full of guests day and night. The resort appeals to families and couples seeking a beachfront holiday close to city conveniences. Charlotte Amalie, three miles away, offers ample shopping and dining attractions

A large pool wraps around the cliff face below the main building. The pool and a nearby eight-person spa tub have sea and sunset views. At the base of the cliff, a boardwalk leads to a 30-foot waterfall. Terraced below a bougainvillea-strewn hillside and above a half-mile beach are a 120-foot-long, Romanesque-style pool and two 10-person spa tubs. Both pool complexes include sundecks furnished with padded lounge chairs.

Water taxis connect the resort with downtown Charlotte Amalie's duty-free shopping, restaurants, and nightlife. The boat trip to Charlotte Amalie takes five minutes.
