Mar 16, 2025Can’t wait to go back!
Clean rooms, great friendly staff, excellent food and drinks, great pool, beach activities, can’t wait to go back!!!!! Everyone made us feel like family. We loved the entree’s and appetizers. Honestly, you have plenty of options to choose from and won’t leave hungry. The water filter system allows you to have delicious water to drink so you don’t always have to have bottled water. No worries for drinking it!!! The relaxed atmosphere makes you lose track of time and you can enjoy the views all day long.

I made a playlist based on how good this trip was.
Fantastic stay with the chillest island vibes and killer views. The staff is friendly and welcoming, and it's the perfect place to unwind and forget the cold winters of the northern climes and escape. Excursions depart straight from the hotel to get you out on the water--or into the water--to see amazing wildlife and awe-inspiring sights. Many other fun things are just a quick taxi ride away, including the ferry over to St. John! Or, lazy days reading and looking out at the gorgeous beach? Yes. Please.

Paradise ++ in the USVI awaits you
Outstanding experience in paradise! Locale, staff, facility … awesome food and excursions make this an enviable place to go. A short distance away from the main town it is situated in a great location giving you peace and quiet yet not far from any of the main attractions or facilities on the island.

Mar 12, 2025Amazing Time with Awesome Staff
We had an amazing time at Bolongo Bay. The thing that made our stay above and beyond was the people. Literally every staff member was SO nice. We loved that it was small so we consistently saw the same bartenders/waitresses/etc. Seeing them day in and day out and them remembering you and continuing conversations with them was so nice. There are 2 cats the resort feeds as well and seeing them taking care of those cats made me so happy. If you are looking for a smooth and sandy beach this is not the place, but if you are looking for fun and snorkeling and activities then this is the beach for you. They have snorkel equipment, kayaks and paddleboards for you to rent and they are a blast to use. The water is rocky and grassy so not the best to just lounge in, but fun while snorkeling to see all the fish. There is a smooth, sandy area off to the side with beach chairs so if you aren't going near the water it is smooth back there. The rooms are not too luxurious, the shower is small and the mattresses aren't the best - however the atmosphere around the resort is so fun you only end up on your room to sleep. The heavenly days catamaran is on site and it such a fun experience. Again, the boat staff is awesome. The pool is also great! There is a swim up bar and a shaded area in the pool if needed. The food and drinks at the attached restaurant are unbeatable. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner were all delicious!

Bolongo Bay is a Beauty
All inclusive really is all inclusive! BB’s restaurant’s (Iggie’s) breakfasts, lunches, and dinners are all included as are all drinks including the delicious “frozen concoctions that help you hang on.” We loved having plenty of time to choose for meals (3.5 hour windows) and meals were mostly served at a comfortable pace. Having a variety of live music every night was a special treat – from steel drum to island vibe vocals to rock and roll (Rox crushed it) – and dancing to it outside, we felt like newlyweds (despite our 38 years of marriage). All of the rooms face the bay, and our first floor one was the perfect location just a few steps away from Iggie’s to the left and the beach activities to the right. The BB boat, Heavenly Days, provided a wonderful snorkel trip – we saw turtles and had a nurse shark swim right under us. The reef provided plenty of colorful fish and we appreciated the extended snorkel time (almost a full hour) as well as a relaxing boat ride and most excellent boat drinks on the return trip (see the photo). There were hiccups, however. The beach is small and rocky so we spent a lot of taxi money (bring CASH and lots of it – the taxis never take credit cards) going to fabulous beaches on the island and St. Johns. You can rent a kayak and snorkel gear at BB, but we highly recommend Sapphire or Coki on St. Thomas and especially Trunk on St. Johns. While the location and view were spectacular and we loved having our own private little patio, there are no windows to open for fresh air and the showers are super tiny. The same goes for the pool. It was nice and clean but small – no lap swimming by a long shot. Overall, Bolongo Bay was a great experience, the essence of island chill and an outstanding value for the price (especially compared to some of the “name brand” resorts on St. Thomas).
