Relaxing Winter Getaway

Our family had a an incredible vacation at Cowpet Bay West. The condominium had an amazing view, was CLEAN and the location was spectacular. The condominium was equipped with everything you needed for the beach if you wanted to go offsite. This condominium is steps from a beach and two restaurants. We have no complaints.

Perfect Location; Great Condo View

We absolutely loved our stay at Bella Vista! Perfect location is not an exaggeration. It had it all. Both the beautiful pool and relatively private beach were a two minute walk from the condo and conveniently right beside each other. In addition to two restaurants right there on the beach, the town of Red Hook is a two minute drive and had everything you’d want for a beach vacation- many restaurants, ice cream shops, and shopping. You do NEED to have a rental vehicle. We had an incredible vacation at this paradise!!

Great Place to Stay In St. Thomas!!

My family stayed here for 8 nights. The place was ideal with the deck overlooking the water being the highlight. One of the best locations in Cowpet Bay with an ocean breeze and close to the beach. A few minor issues that took a bit from the experience but overall would highly recommend this condo and Cowpet Bay West in general!

The views from this condo could not be more calming and beautiful. The location is perfect for excellent dining choices and the deck was an ideal place to just sit and look at the scenery. We booked this trip to help reduce work-related stress and it did the trick! Peace and quiet, sun, mild breezes and clear turquoise water-it has it all.

Island Paradise

We had a wonderful time. Melinda provides an encyclopedia of information for her unit as well as what to do on the island. She provided so many tips on what to expect in various situations, there were no surprises. The location is perfect and I thought Cowpet Bay Beach was only second to Magen’s Bay.

About the host

Hosted by Melinda Scott

Host profile image
Hi, I have travelled the world. I lived abroad for my first 13 years of my life. I started and ran my own company for 20 years, and travelled constantly while raising my two wonderful daughters. I chose St. Thomas as my "vacation home". It is my home that I welcome to my guests. One thing I disliked about traveling was the unknown... was it nice, was it clean, did it have the amenities, and yes, did it have an ocean view...??
So, I welcome you to my tiny piece of paradise!
