Read my REVIEWS! I've lived in St. Thomas for 26+ years & know the VIs very well. Cowpet Bay West is a Premier Gated Community with a Pool, Hot Tub, & Parking Spot!

Ask for Sherri's handouts: Top 10 Fun Things for Kids to Do,
Sherri's Beach Guide, Sherri's Favorite Shops, & more.

The Space:
Ask for a copy of the floor plan to see exactly what you'll get.

There are 2 full baths between the 2 bedrooms, so there's plenty of privacy. Each bedroom has a king-size bed. One bedroom also has a day bed with a trundle, which has 2 single mattresses. Both bedrooms have black-out window treatments to enhance your sleep. I also provide a PackNPlay for baby guests.

The living room has furniture so comfy, I bought the same set for my home!
The dining room table seats 6 comfortably. The kitchen has plenty of cooking supplies and tools to whip up a gourmet meal. Or ask me for Sherri's Favorite Restaurants handout.

You'll enjoy Caribbean breezes sitting on the seaside lanai, which has a panoramic view looking south beyond St. James Island toward St. Croix. Fortunately, the seaside lanai is sun-free around 11 am, leaving you with a shady area to relax.

You can see the Caribbean Sea from every room except the bathrooms and garden bedroom. Imagine awakening to white sand, turquoise water, and a gentle breeze almost every day of the year. That's my life!

Guest Access:
Guests will have full access to every room in the condo.

The Neighborhood:
The East End of St. Thomas is well known as the best place to vacation for several reasons: 1) Safety: my condo is in a GATED community next to the St. Thomas Yacht Club and within walking distance of The Ritz Hotel; 2) Proximity to the ferry to St. John & the British Virgin Islands; 3) plenty of restaurants & bars. There are 2 restaurants on Cowpet Beach; 4) Close to Red Hook, where you'll find plenty of fishing boats, groceries, alcohol, shops, banks, a medical center, pharmacy, restaurants, bars, and more.

Getting Around:
Guests could easily go without a car if they are interested in relaxing on the beach after making one stop at the grocery store. Guests who want to travel around St. Thomas could rent a car from a local car rental company or a national chain. St. Thomas also has open air Safari buses that circle the island for $2 one way.

Other Things to Note:
Feel safe inside my gated community. You will have one parking spot inside the gated community that is right in front of your vacation condo.
Just over 1 mile to St. John and BVI's Ferries.

Interaction with Guests:
I am available to answer all questions via text, phone, & email. I live right across the street from the condo and provide as much customer service as my guests prefer.

Wonderful place to stay

This was our first trip to the islands and we are not resort people. We decided to check out VRBO and were a little worried about the risk of booking site unseen but this place is perfectly depicted in the photos, spotlessly clean and every bit as much a slice of paradise as we could ask for.

Beautiful condo. Great location.

Had a wonderful week on St Thomas. The condo worked out perfectly for us. Steps away from the beach and restaurants. View of Cowpet Bay was amazing. Can’t wait to return.

Hated to Leave

We absolutely had the best time ever and cannot wait to return. Condo was terrific, very clean and has everything you could possibly need. Sherri is absolutely terrific and had all angles covered fully. All recommendations for activities, shopping, dining, services (card rental) were spot on ensuring we had a most perfect trip. Highly recommend visiting BVI with New Horizons Charters and golfers will love the challenging course. Cannot wait to come back. Thanks so much Sherri and hope to see you soon!

Wonderful place and owner

This is the perfect condo to get away from the crowds and just enjoy the island. Sherri has thought of everything in this condo. She lives local and went out of her way to make sure my family was comfortable and enjoyed our vacation. Sherri works hard to maintain her 5 star status. We were so impressed with the condo and her customer service we are coming back next April. Sherri look for our booking soon. Darin

June 2022 Visit

Sherri's reviews are well deserved. Her property is in a great location and comes equipped with just about anything you may need. I saw first hand if something wasn't available, she would go and get it for you. The condo is well maintained and has some nice upgrades. Her property and attention certainly deserve a 5 star rating. Highly recommend her property to anyone.

NICE CONDO & WELCOMING OWNER

Our group of four stayed at Sherri's condo on 6/3/17 and were welcomed by the owner, which was a pleasant surprise, as in all my travels, the owner has never been on site to welcome us and give us full detail of all the amenities etc. associated with our stay. First of all, our hostess is a very nice person and full of information regarding the local scene, places to visit, dine, drink and all to do in St. Thomas. The beach is great and the pool is very nice also. Sangria's is a fantastic spot to grab a bite and relax, especially in the evenings. The pool bar is a nice spot to meet new friends and converse with the bartender. We did not try the main restaurant on the beach, but have heard it offers an upscale vibe and excellent fare. I have only great memories to take away from our visit to Sherri's property. For you who are a bit physically challenged, please be aware that their are over 80 stair steps from the front door of the condo to the beach. We are all 60 plus and handled it ok, but the return to the condo from the beach is steep and somewhat exasperating. Other than that, you will love your stay at this well-kept vacation paradise. Happy travels!!!

Very attentive property owner! Fully equipped condo

Our experience at Sherri’s condo was absolutely wonderful. The condo was nicely decorated and fully equipped with absolutely everything we could possibly need, including extra feminine products and reef safe sunscreens if we had needed them. Sherri’s condo was a clean, comfortable, and restful place to lay our head after an exciting day of exploring all that St Thomas and St John had to offer. The condo is conveniently located to Red Hook, just five minutes down the road, which has numerous restaurants and shops. We also had access to the Caribbean Fish Market and Sangria’s, which are both on property, if we wanted to eat dinner close by. We cooked dinner in the condo several times, and Sherri had everything I needed in the kitchen, including spices and condiments. Overall, Sherri’s condo provided an excellent home base for us during my family’s very memorable St. Thomas vacation. Thank you, Sherri!

Another fabulous stay at Cowpet in St Thomas, USVI.

We had a great week. The condo was exactly as described. We were of family of 4 adults and 1 child. The size of the condo was perfect for our group. We cooked in most days and had everything we needed. The view is wonderful and if you didn't want to get out and see the island you could just sit in the condo all day and enjoy the view. Thank you Sheri for a great stay. Cindy, Tim, Lisa, Walter and Kate

Great place to stay!

Sherri's place was exactly what we were looking for and more. It was comfortable and in a great location. Sherri was always just a text away to check on us and answer any questions. In the condo, she also has an EXTENSIVE 3-ring binder of information on anything you might want to do in and around St. Thomas which is great if it's your first time. The condo was stocked with all of the basic essentials to cook your own meals (if that's really something you want to do on vacation). If not, Sangria's Beachside Bistro (great breakfast and lunch) and Caribbean Fish Market (make dinner reservations) are both on the property. It's also located close to Red Hook for additional shopping, restaurants, and the ferry to St. John. All in all, I would definitely stay here again!

Stay was nice, unit was clean and in good location!

Owner was responsive to requests, though she was off property. The home was in a nice spot, with a pretty beach and close proximity to Red Hook-which had great restaurants and some shopping, plus ferries to stay john. The second bedroom doesn’t have any kind of a view, but the rooms are both good sized, and the unit has a pleasant view of the water.

Beautiful Views

We enjoyed our stay at Sherri's condo. It was very spacious, and well stocked with everything we needed, and more. We especially appreciated the Starbucks coffee, and sipping it in the mornings, with the gorgeous views of Cowpet Bay. Sherri was super helpful with tips, and answered all our questions. We would highly recommend staying here!

Great condo and service

The condo is as pictured and described. It will easily accommodate two couples. In our case, the lower trundle bed in the garden bedroom was perfect for our toddler. It was clean and well-maintained for an island home, although a few things are starting to show age (one stuck sliding door and a leaky toilet). There are a lot of steps; a few into and out of the condo and a whole bunch when you go to the beach. They were not an issue for us, but it's something to be aware of. And the trip to the beach is well worth it. It is an excellent swimming beach, with small waves and a nice, sandy bottom. It's also not very crowded. (We followed this stay with a stay at Sapphire Beach, which had much bigger waves and was extremely crowded.) The pool is also very nice and uncrowded, although we were a little bummed it did not have an area shallower than 3.5 feet for our three-year-old. Owner Sherri was great with communication before and during our stay, even though she was off-island (and in a significantly different time zone). She emailed before our stay to see if we had any questions, and she checked in by text while we were there. One bathroom toilet had a leak, and Sherri was able to get in touch with a plumber on Sunday, and he was there Monday morning. It's clear Sherri knows what she's doing, as little touches that made our stay better were apparent everywhere, from Starbucks coffee to island maps and information in abundance, and even a high chair and some toys we could use. (Again, the difference is all the more clear because our subsequent stay with another VRBO host was not nearly as smooth). We would certainly stay here again, and we'd look forward to meeting Sherri in person.

I couldn't wish for more in a vacation.

My vacation was wonderful and made more so by the beautiful location on Cowpet Bay. The condo offered all anyone could need for his or her visit. The minor disturbances made by ongoing hurricane repairs let me know that it will be even better next time.

Wonderful Location & Accommodations!! Will Return for Sure!

This is our 2nd time staying at Cowpet Bay West, but our 1st time staying at Sherri's condo. We returned to Cowpet Bay West this year, as we loved the location to Red Hook, and the quiet, peaceful, and beautiful Cowpet Bay. Sherri's condo had the amenities that we were looking for to fit our family's needs on this trip, and wonderful accommodations they were! The condo was well-equipped with everything our family needed and more! Although we did not get to meet Sherri as she was off island at the time, she was very proactive to returning text/calls if we had questions - which really weren't many. We reached out to her for questions only, definitely did not have any problems. The kitchen is well stocked with anything you could imagine. The bathroom included very nice towels, the beds were extremely comfortable, and the condo had coolers, beach towels, beach toys, to help make your stay easy. The A/C and WIFI worked great. Sherri's condo is the 2nd row back from the beach, basically, but although not directly front, the benefit is the views that I believe are even more breathtaking AND the breezes even better. The only thing I would point out is that if you have someone traveling in your party who has difficulty with knees or climbing stairs, it would be better off for them to try to stay right on the beach. BUT, they could always drive their car around to minimize their walk up/down stairs. As for location, this has got to be one of the best. It is so close to Red Hook with the many restaurants and/or bars, the ferry to St John, the marina if you are catching a charter to the BVI's, and a large grocery center. During our visit 7/3-7/10, the Elysian pool was still not open from the 2017 Hurricane Maria, nor was the beach restaurant Sangrias. However, this had no negative effect at all on our stay. The Caribbean Fish Market is open for dinner, and still serves one of the best dinners we have on the island. And at the end of the day, we came for the beautiful beaches and relaxed atmosphere that Cowpet Bay in St Thomas has provided for us before. And we were not disappointed. Thank you Sherri for helping to provide a beautiful condo that our family thoroughly enjoyed! We will be calling you for our next visit for sure!

Amazing!!!

Our family of 5 (three girls, 10, 9, and 5 years old) had an amazing 10 days at Sherri's property! Sherri was great to work with from the beginning, great communication and she ensured we had everything we needed and that any questions we had were answered. The condo was immaculate, beachfront, with a great community pool, wonderful restaurants, and a pool bar. He condo had everything we needed (including games and toys in a closet that we didn't notice until we were checking to ensure we had everything prior to leaving. The view and breeze from the balcony were perfect, the gated community felt safe, and the location was perfect for shopping, beachgoing, and catching the ferry to St John or the BVI's. we would absolutely stay here again and, if it were up to my 9 year old, we'd be buying the condo! Highly recommended.

Very clean and neat. Well stocked with supplies. It has been remodeled which is nice.

This condo is very well kept. Looks like it has been completely renovated. We felt completely safe at this complex. It is gated and a guard at night time. The condo is well supplied with plenty of towels, bathroom soaps, shampoos (in case u forget yours)beach supplies, kitchen utensils etc. We ran out of mosquito spray and she even had that!! My one complaint would be that The floors creaked everywhere you stepped. Overall it is a super nice condo.

Perfect condo made our stay awesome.

We had an excellent time in Sherri's condo. Everything was just as pictured and we were very comfortable. Sherri met us when we got there and went over all the details and amenities. She made it very clear she was available for questions about anything. She has great recommendations for anything you may want to do and is very friendly. It was my brothers birthday and she took the time to make home made cupcakes with candles and bring them over. She is so thoughtful and this combined with the great condo made this even better than I could have imagined. We are already planning to come back next year. And stay in Sherri's condo of course.

Great location, awesome owner, really nice condo!

Myself, my wife and 3 daughters spent 6 days at the condo. The condo has fabulous views of Cowpet bay where you can sit on the large balcony and watch the sailboats bob around in the water. The beach is great and there are complimentary chairs available right there so no need to rent or drag chairs around. There is also water sport equipment available for rent right on the beach for very reasonable rates. Later in the day there can be some biting insects, but a little Cutter spray keeps them away. The condo is less than 5 minutes away from Red Hook which has lots of great restaurants and the ferry dock and the American Yacht Harbor. The condo has a great kitchen that Sherri, the owner, has nicely equipped with anything you might need to prepare meals if your so inclined. There's also a weber gas grill if you want to cook outside. There are also 2 restaurants/bars a 5 minute walk away on the beach. The food and drinks were very good at Sangria's in particular. A pool and a relaxing hot tub (that's actually hot) are available on the property as well. The condo is spacious and our family of 5 never felt crowded or cramped. The beds are comfortable. The owner lives in the same complex and is very helpful and responsive. We had a great time and Sherri's condo will be our first choice when we return to St Thomas. If your looking for a quiet and beautiful place to relax and enjoy St Thomas, we highly recommend this property.
