Place was lovely with great views of the bay from the balcony. 4 stars only because the hot water was intermittent and we ended up taking cold showers. Contacted the management company and were told they had no one on the weekend.

Great views from the balcony!

It was great to be back to St Thomas. Our 2nd time staying at Estate Bolongo. Family of 4 spent 15 days in Steven and Lillian's condo and absolutely enjoyed every minute. Owners have wonderful communication, friendly neighbors, and conveniently located next to Mims restaurant. Quick drive to Redhook, our favorite hangout, and a few minutes more to Lindquist Beach, our favorite beach on the island. Couldn't have been happier and look forward to returning next year!

Everything was great, except housekeeping had not come(crunbs on table, towels on floor, beds sheets not changed out) and we checked in at 5pm. Owner was quickly contacted and housekeeping arrived while we were at dinner.

First Steven chatted on the phone with me, answering ?s months before our trip. All information packets were terrific, materials in the condo also helped us to decide on things to do. My daughter (adult) and I found all directions easy to follow and liked Steven and Lillian's suggestions. The condo was wonderful. A galley kitchen completely stocked with pots and pans, silverware and other goodies. We loved the balcony where we read books, relaxed and just watched the water and the palm leaves moving. The apartment is comfortable, plenty of furniture. The Klimt art work in the living room and bedrooms made us feel like we were in a fashionable apt. The apt was easy to enter and leave:the door was easy to work with. The apartment is close to grocery stores, Red Hook, and the main road that goes into Charlotte Amielia. The bedrooms were very comfortable and there were bureaus to contain our clothing. Beach chairs and games were readily available. The Bolongo beach and Mims were just a short walk away. Security cameras were on the property. I happily give the condo 5 stars.

I loved this property because you could see both the sunrise and sunset from the grounds The kids loved the different pools.

Nice condo with all The amenities. Great view. Two restaurants within walking distance. There are three poles in the complex to choose from. Beach is ok.

Our stay was amazing for a much needed vacation! Thank you guys!

The property and location are amazing. Just far enough off the beaten path to feel like you have your own tropical paradise but close enough to everything you need. Property is well equipped and the owners are very nice and communicative. This was the first trip for my kids off the "mainland' and they fell in love, many thanks to the property. Highly recommend and can't wait to get back.

Just had a wonderful few days at Watergate Villa. The condo had plenty of space for our family of four. The kitchen was well equipped (although being English I would have liked a kettle for tea- but we just used a saucepan) The beds were comfortable and it was lovely to fall asleep to the sound of the waves. There is air conditioning but we only used it once as there are sea breezes. We sat on the balcony every evening enjoying rum punches and admiring the beautiful ocean view. Steve and Lillian were very helpful with directions to their place and suggestions about places to visit. The next time we will try to go to The Stone Farmhouse. Unfortunately they were all booked up when we were there. Would love to return some day!

This was a great place to stay. I appreciated the extra things like a discreet clothesline for drying swimsuits and included beach towels/fold out chairs. The 3 accessible pools were very nice and not crowded. Not the property but as info for visitors- Bolongo Bay was very windy/rough (maybe not all the time?) and rocky and so was not good for swimming. We went to other beaches to swim/snorkel but the view is great and having walk-to restaurants is very nice. Property was quiet and felt very secure/safe.

Nice property right on the water. Beautiful views and sounds! Stayed with my wife and 3 kids for 5 nights. Being able to cook and eat at the condo saved us tons of money! Would recommend having a car for this location. A few items were in disrepair, mainly corrosion from salt water/air which I would expect from any place this close to the water.

I absolutely loved the spaciousness of this villa. As soon as I opened the balcony door, it took my breath away! It was so beautiful. I spent every morning making some coffee, putting on some music, sitting out on the balcony and just soaking in all of God's beauty. The location was perfect for our first trip to St Thomas. Walking distance to the beach and restaurants. We loved going to Iggie's; their food was great and reasonably priced. The owners always responded quickly; which was very much appreciated. And it was nice that we had access to 2 other pools at the 2 resorts next to us; since ours was temporarily out of order. I also loved that fact that this villa came equipped with everything! They even had a coffee maker and iron & iron table! I would definitely recommend this property to anyone. It made our trip even more amazing!

This was a great location, convenient to both Charlotte Amalie and Redhook. The view from the balcony was outstanding--a beautiful sunrise over the bay greeted us every morning! There were two restaurants within walking distance and we enjoyed a top-notch dinner at Mim's one night. We also had access to three pools nearby. The condo was equipped with plenty of seating for our group of four, both indoors and out on the balcony. The kitchen was adequately equipped but small; still, it met our needs since we didn't do a great deal of cooking. The beds were comfortable and it was nice to have two bathrooms. Beach towels and chairs were provided. Overall a great place!

We had 4 adults and 2 children (3 and 7). Overall we had a good stay. The beach was a short 5 min walk from the condo. It was at the resort next door, but it is fine to use their beach. Beach had some seaweed there, but served its purpose for 2 of our 6 days. Next door at Izzies was a nice restaurant with swim up bar and restaurant. This is a good home base for the price to do many different things on the island.

The property was as advertised. The views were amazing and enough space for me and my family. Check in and check out was convenient and easy.

We really enjoyed our stay. The condo was cute, clean, and the views from the balcony were amazing! Steven and his wife were quick to respond when we had any questions. We ate at both the restaurants on site and everyone one we met, from the locals to other visitors were very friendly. Our stay was perfect!

my family and i had a great visit to st. thomas here at bolongo bay! the property is all it says it is and the pools are nice. great bathrooms and the kitchen came in SO handy. it’s a little challenging to get around so car rental is recommended. the hotel next door is helpful with taxis and such. thanks for a great vacation!

Nice place to stay, amazing view from the balcony.

Over had a nice time. Ate at other places. Went to beaches. Did sight seeing. Thank you for your hospitality

First off, the views of the bay are out of this world. That was worth it alone. The space is fully equipped with everything you need. Would definitely stay here again.

See above

Overall this stay at this rental condo which is called Watergate estates , not bolongo bay resort which is an all inclusive resort , was ok . The unit itself is dated and needs new slider doors and screens . They are a pain to open and close and that and the ceiling fan in the master bedroom that shakes and has only fast as a speed were the top two complaints here . The beach is very rocky and belongs to Bolongo bay resort , it is not kid friendly or adult for that matter as the water is all sharp rocks and coral . The pool is awesome, and Mims restaurant is overpriced and underwhelming in terms of food . Would we stay here again ? I would look around ….

Steven was easy to communicate with. We enjoyed Mims- the restaurant on property. Great frozen drinks!!

I really enjoyed my stay everything was good

Great place and the location is prime for exploring the island or just enjoying the beach and restaurants right below!

The views on this place were insane and the pictures online don't do justice for you seeing it in person, it truly is amazing. They had extra everything from towels, beach chairs etc. However, there a few small things that needed to be addressed more in the welcome packet, specifically the area. Iggies was the main restaurant we went to the other one does not open until a certain time. Also, as far as location it's pretty far from downtown or uptown area so a taxi is the only way around. Should mention you cannot take safaris since they do not stop there. Due to COVID alot of restaurants close early or need reservations, alot of what was in the binder was a bit oudated. There was a bit of a confusion when we checked in with the cleaning lady but other than those minor things we loved the stay and area , had a great experience.

This place was amazing with it's location and views!

We had a nice time staying at this location and enjoyed the beautiful view of the Bolongo bay from the balcony. It would’ve been even better if there was a grill out there! The condo was very clean and worked well for my husband and I, our two girls and my mother-in-law. We had a car and drove to the location easily from the airport and got around the island with no problem. We enjoyed the restaurant Mim’s On the property a couple of nights and also walked over to the resort next-door for dinner at their restaurant and breakfast a couple of days when we didn’t cook our self in the kitchen. The kitchen was well stocked with all of the things that we needed to make cooked meals and breakfast. We enjoyed our stay.

The description and photos of this property are accurate and communication with the property hosts both before and during my stay was prompt and helpful. The hosts provided information about the property and surrounding area prior to our arrival, which helped us make some final travel arrangements. The location of the property is close to both Charlotte Amalie and Red Hook, as well as a quick 20-min drive to several beaches and wonderful restaurants. We dined one night at a restaurant at Bolongo Bay Resort within walking distance and found it to be good, although they told us they were making an exception for us to dine and that they are not allowing off-property guests there right now, due to the pandemic. There is also another restaurant very close to the unit we did not try during our stay. The condo complex is next to the Bolongo Bay Resort and utilizes their beach. It was too windy when we were there and the beach was rocky without much soft sand so it wasn't swimmable, though our kids did enjoy playing in the rocky tide pools. Having a pool on-site was nice, though not heated. We used it for a quick dip and enjoyed the iguanas. The unit itself was just as described. It's older but was clean and fully stocked. We didn't use all of the gear provided but noted it's nice for travelers to have beach chairs, beach toys, some snorkel gear, and beach cooler. The only missing items we ended up needing to purchase were hair conditioner and laundry detergent. There is a dishwasher and all the appliances you need in the kitchen. We did have an issue with the master bedroom upon arrival, which lead to several sleepless nights. This unfortunately pretty greatly impacted our vacation. The seal around the patio door had some cracks and we were there on a particularly windy time. The wind through the door cracks made a very loud tea kettle noise that kept us up at night. If we could've closed the hurricane shutters it perhaps would have kept some of the wind out, but the shutter lock was broken. Also, the A/C in the master bedroom was broken. My husband is an engineer and tried several ways to fix the problem but it simply wouldn't work. We communicated with the host the next day but unfortunately it took 2 more days for the unit to be replaced, meaning we lost sleep in a hot & windy room for 3 nights. Resources are likely strained and we know people work on "island time". Hopefully the problems have been fixed for future guests.

We had a great time during our stay, the location is wonderful, close to everything and great restaurants! We will definitely be back!!

Our family of 6 were very pleased with our stay at this property in Bolongo Bay. First of all the location was great! Quick access to both Charlotte Amalie and Red Hook. The property itself was big enough for the six of us and we enjoyed hearing the waves out of the sliding glass doors and sitting on the deck. There were two restaurants close by that we enjoyed as well, Mim’s and Iggy’s. Both had good food but we found Iggy’s to be priced a little more reasonable. All in all everything was great at this property and we would definitely consider it again on our next trip to St Thomas.
