More Guest Photos To our Island Family, We made our second visit to Bolongo Bay this year (2008) from February 1st to the 11th. The first thing that impressed us was that everyone remembered us for our visit in 2007, it was like visiting family. The second thing that impressed us was the many improvements to the property and restaurants. The service and food was as expected, GREAT!!! It would take us too long to comment on and thank each individual for the great job of making us feel welcomed and appreciated as guests. Another nice touch was the returning guest reception on the beach with the owners and senior management, thank you. We have already booked our room and flight for next year, can’t wait! Gary and Vickie Mertz, Ft. Wright, KY
To My Bolongo Family:
Hello Bolongo; We had such a great time at
Bolongo Bay last week. It's so relaxing and beautiful. Our kids didn't
want to leave the resort. We enjoyed our daily warm greetings from staff
who knew us by name: Lyndell and Simon. That was a treat. Vernita was
especially warm as well. We enjoyed relaxing but the activities were the
best. Many thanks to Jordan and The Manager, Marcelo.
Hi Johnathon,
I'll fill out the questionnaire, but I wanted to personally thank you,
your family and the rest of your staff for hosting our group (Carthage
College Gospel Messengers) last week. The services and accommodations
were great, but more than that, the family friendly atmosphere made us
feel very welcomed as if we were at home. Believe me, it was hard to
leave. Thanks Again, We just returned from our visit to Bolongo Bay, 3/12/08 to 3/18/08. We had the time of our lives! We enjoyed everything about Bolongo Bay. We were hoping for a casual, laid-back place away from the city. What a perfect choice for us!! We hardly left Bolongo Bay resort. Everything we needed was right there. We had a private beach and then there was Iggies right outside our door. You talk about a fun place! The staff at Bolongo Bay were friendly and so helpful. The people we found most memorable were Seth (activities coordinator on the beach), Brianna (waitress at Iggies and on the Heavenly Days cruise crew), Tony (waiter at Iggies), Priscilla (waitress at Lobster Grille), Lyndell (bellman and waiter at Iggies), Chris and Peter (crew on Heavenly Days Cruise crew), Jack (bartender at Iggies), and Anna Marie (gift shop). All of these people helped us to have an experience we will never forget. We can't wait to come back again. I have told everyone I know that they should visit Bolongo Bay. Thank you so much for the best vacation ever. Dennis and Peri LOVED IT!! Exactly what I wanted. It was a small, private place away from the hub-bub of the city but close enough to get there by cab. Having a private beach was great, and the food was 5 stars. The staff excellent. I recommend doing the all-inclusive. I will defiantly go back. Risa Once again, we
have returned from Bolongo Bay. We had such a fantastic time for 11
days! This was our 2nd trip to our favorite place in the world! We
just celebrated our 1st anniversary with all the wonderful staff you
have at Bolongo. Keep up the fantastic job you are all doing. We
really enjoyed the Welcome Back Cocktail party that was arranged for
returning guests. It meant alot! We met some great people again this
year and have formed friendships that i believe will last a very long
time. We are already looking into another vacation next year! We
would like to say "THANK YOU" to everyone on your staff, but
especially to Jonathan -who will be missed when he moves on, (i still
want your job!) Alex, who was the best bartender, keeping us well
hydrated with Corona's day in and day out!, Ryan, is a great addition
to Bolongo, he knows how to make a mean rum punch! He was very
entertaining for the young kids! Our daughter wont admit it but i
think she has a crush on him! Bolongo Bay will always remain in our
hearts no matter how much snow piles up on us here in Cleveland, NY.
Thanks again for a wonderful time and see you next year! My wife and
I were guests at your resort probably 4 years ago. We had the
greatest time and I can't wait to return again. When you think of all
the places that one could chose, to go to, for a vacation, Bolongo
Beach is the FIRST that comes to my mind. The seven day stay was
unforgetable! After the years that have passed, I still have this
feeling. That has to say a lot for your Bolongo Beach Resort, your
management, the people who work there, the kindness shown, etc.!!! We so enjoyed our stay on St. Thomas at Bolongo Bay. I couldn't imagine staying at a nicer resort. Everyone on your staff should be applauded daily for their kindness and attentiveness to the needs of your guests. We look forward to a return trip to Bolongo Bay and please do not make any changes to your resort - a family owned business is always tops!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you for a wonderful vacation we look forward to seeing everyone again. Karlene Webster/John Snyder My husband and I
stayed at Bolongo Bay for our honeymoon 10/15-10/20/07. We had
an incredible time, starting with the champagne in our room upon
arrival and amazing view from our balcony! Many thanks to Vernita for
hooking us up with Delita for a private tour of the island! We really
enjoyed all the food - both at Iggie's and at Lobster Grille. We
really appreciated Chef Robert taking the time to stop by our table at
nearly every meal. The highlight of our entire trip had to be the
sunset cruise on Heavenly Days! Thanks to Pete, Chris and Stephanie
for making it so fun. Finally, our trip wouldn't have been complete
without the great bartending skills of Alex and Harry. We have told
everyone back home about Bolongo. We're looking forward to coming
back in a few years to celebrate our anniversary! Dear Bolongo Bay Resort, Our stay with you was short and sweet. We stayed from December 21st -December 25th, 2007. We have told many about your resort and can't stop talking about the great time that we had. From the moment that we
stepped foot on Bolongo Bay we felt like we were at the right place. We
traveled with our 22 month old daughter and she felt at ease with the
great crew you have working for you. Her little heart fell in love with
Ryan from the moment she saw him. It was such a treat to be at your
resort over Christmas. I was so happy that Santa found us on Christmas
Day! Your location is what brought us to you. We wanted to be away from
the cruise ships, yet close enough to the attractions that St. Thomas
has to offer. We ate at Iggies each and every day and would recommend
the all inclusive plan. The rooms were clean and the girls cleaning them
were very friendly and helpful. We loved the activities on the beach
that you had to offer. It made traveling with a young child easy. We
were able to enjoy the activities when the timing was right for us. We
hope to be back in the near future. Thank you for everything.
Veronica
and I were at Bolongo from 02/01/08 - 02/08/08 and had a great time.
Our room was really nice and the Prestine (the maid) did a great job.
She was friendly like most of the staff we met. Beverly was friendly
and helpful as well. We ate breakfast at the Lobster grille once. The
service was a little slow but, bless viola and the other server for
doing the best they could. The salmon omelet I ordered was really
good. Jan 22 thru
29,08 December 7th thru 17th, 07 Darcie and I still can’t stop telling everyone how awesome your resort is! We have been on many Cruises, and stayed at swanky hotels all over but this was the best, most relaxing vacation we have ever had! We felt so at home every day and finally after many years of snorkeling I took my first dive lesson and a two tank dive, I am hooked! The entire staff was so friendly and helpful, and the food; back to that swanky hotel comment! Every meal we ate at the Lobster Grill was top notch, and Robert the chef came out and talked with us every night and made us feel like he had specially prepared the meal just for us. Before and after dinner you’ve got to relax at the poolside bar and have Harry or Larson mix you up a special drink or just an ice cold Presidente! The food and fun at Iggies was just as good as the Lobster Grill and our only regret was that we didn’t do the all inclusive plan, we ended up eating out on the town only twice the entire ten days! What can we say about the beach and the beach staff: they are totally awesome! From “G”, TJ, Marcello, and Ryan we were pampered every day! If you wanted to kayak, snorkel, sail, water bike, Jet Ski, or just relax on the beach they took care of everything and became our friends! The Heavenly Days cruise to St John is a blast and Capt Dan, Chris, & Steph are the best crew, even with the Christmas Winds soaking us! Again there were so many amazing, super friendly staff who made this the best vacation ever. But you have to have Vernita help you with any of your day trips she was an angel! And make sure she books you with the famous “Monica Lewinski” tour of St Thomas with Radiant Delita Parsons! (The meanest cab driver on the entire island!) I didn’t know that meanest in St Thomas speak is beautiful! We are already planning our spring vacation in March and have decided to take our two teenage girls with us back to Bolongo Bay. Ryan get ready! The Doumeng Family has a done an outstanding job of creating the perfect beach resort at Bolongo Bay!
See y’all soon!
This was our first time to St Thomas and Bolongo Bay Resort and let
me tell you, it was the best time of our lives, we were there for our
20th anniv, the people who are employed there are the best people you
would ever want to meet, Robert the chef at the lobster grille is
awesome and a blast to talk to, Yolanda waitress at lobster grille
also the best, she sand happy anniv to us on our special night with
the other servers and hostess Andrea ( one special person) and my all
time favorite person there at the resort is Larson, this man is an
excellant bartender and person to talk to, I would recommend the
Bushwackers at the Lobster Grill and have Larson make them with the
chocolate swirl inside of your glass and don't have to many they will
catch you and put u on your rear!!!!! please keep us informed of
things. Thanks for best time and hope to see you later...
Our stay was October 17th - 25th,
2007.
First let me start off with Marriage is a special moment in anyone's life. The planning the pressure the concerns that you have for that day. My wife and I both wanted a destination wedding and we chose Bolongo Bay Resort and we are so glad we did. From the first phone call and e-mail to the wedding specialist Jessa Stevens at the resort we new this was for us. Our wish was her command. From the smallest detail to the actual day of the wedding she and Bolongo's staff made every effort they could to make this the most beautiful day of our life. If you want to get marriage somewhere special this is the place. The wedding took place barefoot on the beach, the sun was setting, the wave's from the ocean hitting the shore line that was our back ground, this truly was breath taking to say the lest. After the ceremony the wedding party and guest's were then escorted to the famous award winning Lobster Grill for a unbelievable reception dinner. The chef and his staff was extraordinary, the dinner was even better. This day truly was a gift from God. The next day all family and guest's left the island and we stayed for additional 5 day's Oh what a joy it was. Let me tell you about the staff, these people truly are there to help you enjoy your ST. Thomas experience from the rooms cleanliness to the great food, beaches, service and the greetings of the day, they truly went out of there way for us and our guest's. The people were so real everyone even the taxi drivers at the resort they made us feel like family. All the managers from the front desk, front office and Iggies/Lobster Grill were always helpful and delightful to talk with. I forgot one thing you must take a day sail to ST. John's with the heavenly days staff this was awesome. The only thing I regret is that we only stayed 8 days. Next year in October we are going to celebrate our One year anniversary with Bolongo and staff. Thanks again from Daniel and Fintia Seeger Woodbridge, VA. November 2007 John and I stayed at your resort the week before Thanksgiving. We had our own beachfront room and met up with 3 couples that are friends of ours who stayed in one of your condos. We had the best time! I would especially like to send a "thank you" to the staff of the Heavenly Days who extended every kindness to me during my "sea sick" experience and to the Doumeng Family for making my 50th birthday so special. After a day on the beach, we came back to the room and sitting on the counter was a silver bucket with champagne and two wine flutes surrounded by beautiful floral - from the Doumeng family and staff. How awesome is that! Whatever our daytime activities, at the end of every day we met up with our friends and spent the evening relaxing at Iggie's, enjoying the breezes, listening to the waves and having a few drinks. This was the first time John and I visited St Thomas, and we want to thank you for making it such an amazing experience. Our room was clean and comfortable, the staff was all very friendly and one of the neatest things about the resort is everything is so convenient. With two restaurants, beach towels and chairs, the Heavenly Days catamaran, the sparkling swimming pool, the gift shop and everything else the resort offers, there was no need to leave. We would highly recommend Bolongo Bay to anyone visiting the island and I'm a little hopeful we'll make this an annual event. Nancy Watson and John Jager PS - John is just a little upset about one thing - that you let us leave to go home! April 2007 Today
we watched our Bolongo Bay slide show for the umteenth time! We
wanted to thank you for such a great vacation ! Bolongo and the staff
were outstanding ! Many thanks to Harry for the pool side frozen
libations! I told my son that he was Santa and after Christmas he can
be found at Bolongo ! We would also like to thank Simon who greeted
us with a BIG smile every morning and helped set up our rides for the
day trips. Bolongo had a secluded feel and the entire staff seemed
more like friends, a feel that CAN NOT be dupilcated in a big resort
setting ! We met many new friends and hope to see you all again soon!
JULY 2007 My wife and I had the time of our lives at Bolongo Bay. Everyone there was sooo friendly. The room was clean and comfortable. The food at the Lobster Grill was great and Iggies was so much fun. Kudos to the entire staff. Special thanks goes to Jonathon, Ise, Lindell, Vernita (I hope I remembered her name correctly) from the gift shop, Simon, Anna, Randy, Marcelo, the entire Heavenly Days Crew, Capt. Dan, Christa, Chris, and everyone else. We would definately recommend you to our family and friends. We'll try to send you some pictures for your web site. Hope to see you all again soon. Best Regards, Eric and Debi. I

with our hmmmm sometimes nutty family :)...shhhhhh not me Well that
is all for now.......... My husband and I
recently returned from a trip back to Bolongo Bay. Our 7th trip since
July of 2004. And again, it was a wonderful experience! Our room had
recently been refurbished with new furniture and a very comfortable
mattress on the bed. And as always, it was kept very clean by the
house keeping staff. Our thanks go out to the Doumeng family and their
wonderful extended family of their staff! They truly are the most
friendly and helpful people we have ever met Bolongo is our
favorite resort on the island. My husband and I have been
traveling to St. Thomas for over 10 years. We had stayed at
some other resorts, when we stayed at Bolongo ,,,that was it.
We come back every year. The staff and accommodations make
for a memorable vacation. We stayed at Bolongo Bay in
April 2007 to celebrate our 10 year anniversary. This was a
very relaxing and enjoyable trip. My wife researched all of the
resorts in the islands and picked this one because it had many
return customers. It was not the biggest or fanciest resort,
but those are the things that we wanted to avoid. We met a
couple at Iggies and they had just left one of the more
expensive resorts. They said that they had booked there
trip with Travelocity and that once they got to that resort,
that there were several people complaining about various things
and that the beach was small for the amount of guest that stay
there. They said that they came to Bolongo years ago for there
honeymoon and would much rather stay at Bolongo. Travelocity
let them switch to Bolongo. What a wonderful resort!
Thanks so much for everything! We stayed there June 19-25; next
time longer! We loved the location, the facilities, the room, the
FOOD and drinks, the pool ... Marcelo, Lyndell, Claudia, Ish,
Danielle, Gloria, so many to name! You are doing things right
there. I know some critics think the rooms should be updated, but
I think the room was great the way it was. We weren't looking for
posh conditions; just a homey, safe and welcoming atmosphere where
our teenaged daughters and we could relax and enjoy. We found it!
June 2007 From the minute we arrived we were greeted with big smiles & welcomes. Never in all our travels have we been made to feel more at home. Each & everyone of the staff went out of their way to assure our comfort and needs were met. We did the all-inclusive which was excellent. Our party of 10 could not get enough of Iggie’s great menu,beverages and staff. What a pleasure to get to know them and to walk up and they knew your beverage before you ordered. The Lobster Grille was a class act with a menu that was over the top and staff to match. Where else could you be invited to a reception to meet the owners who let you know how proud they were that you were there to spend your vacation! The entire resort is kept spotless and the rooms are exceptionally clean and refreshed everyday and the views are awesome. From the beach & palm trees to the reefs and tidal pools what an experience. Our granddaughters loved every minute and learned so much about island life. The resort is child friendly and babysitting services were arranged so we “ big kids” could play. We will ever be grateful for “Nicole” who made us feel so relaxed leaving our little ones in her care. Bolongo is a family who understands the concerns of families traveling and go out of their way to set your mind at ease. We only had 6 days,next time it will be longer! . We had a great time at Iggie’s everynight and how refreshing not to have to leave the resort for entertainment. Our ages of the group were from 5 yrs-57 and all in between and a GREAT time was had by all! Thanks Bolongo for maiking memories that will last a lifetime! Betty Jo & Larry Casey Columbus,Georgia My mom and I just returned on Saturday from the best week at Bolongo Bay! It was my graduation gift from college and I couldn't have had a better gift! We absolutely loved the food and the great drinks and the relaxing atmosphere! We did the all-inclusive plan which was wonderful-didn't have to worry about a thing! We loved the Heavenly Days catamaran, both the day sail and the sunset sail. The staff was so friendly and accomodating! We will definately return next year! Thanks for the best vacation! P.S. The Bushwacker's were delicious!!! Jennifer and Valerie May 2007 Chester Springs, PA To everybody at Bolongo, Greetings from the Winter Family! What
an incredible experience Heather and I had while staying at your
resort. Your staff was awesome and we enjoyed every second of our
stay. From the moment we checked in we knew we had made the right
choice in staying at Bolongo Bay. The food was excellent as was the
other amenities provided. The Sunset Cruise was one of our best
highlights and will never be forgotten. Thanks so much for the
wonderful experience HI! I just wanted to say thanks so much for a wonderful week in paradise!! My family and I had such a wonderful time at the resort with all of the wonderful staff! My kids Gracie and Michael Andre' had such a great time with all of the staff and my dad, Earl had the 84th birthday of a lifetime! My mom , even though she wasn't feeling well for much of the trip had a great time as well. Thanks to everyone! I thought you might enjoy the pictures that I took of the kids and my dad with everyone! thanks again and we miss you all very much! Hope to see you again!! Andrea Norem Cappiello Dear Bolongo Staff, My Friend Paula and I had a wonderful time at your friendly resort. Snorkeling with the turtle and for rum was the best. Aaron thanks for a blast. I particularly like how much of a community your resort instantly becomes. The staff, guest, and locals interaction at iggies was so warm and friendly, we made new friends everywhere we went. We wanted to share a few pictures. Congratulations again to the couple from PA their wedding, their group was such a nice and fun group. Paul, one of your regulars from NJ (who is a wonderful karokeir) was an entertaining and friendly man. Sincerely Hoping to become a regular, Mary E GREETINGS FROM SNOW AND ICE IN NORTHERN KENTUCKY:

Hello everyone at Bolongo Bay ! We recently returned to Ohio from a wonderful vacation in the USVI. We spent four nights at Bolongo Bay. We couldn't have been more pleased with the accommodations and hospitality that Bolongo Bay offered us! Our room was clean, bright and just a few feet from the Caribbean. We enjoyed sitting out on the porch at all hours of the day. Your staff was friendly and very helpful. While at Bolongo Bay we spent a great deal of time using the water toys and found the "beach guys" extremely friendly and helpful. Especially comforting was the fact that they were very safety oriented and kept a close eye on the guests as they were enjoying the water. Interestingly enough, our teenage daughter's criteria for a hotel included "a hammock under palm trees on the beach." We found that hammock just feet from our door! I would definitely recommend your resort to anyone visiting St. Thomas in the future. Thanks again for an enjoyable stay! Vickie and Jeremy We spent 11/30/06 - 12/3/06 @
Bolongo Bay. We loved every minute of our stay & plan to visit same
time next year! We were extremely pleased with all the staff and
accommodations. My husband lived in the VI, 18 years ago, ironically
he knew 1 of the bartenders at Iggies (they used to work
together!). We look forward to next year, already! We
went to St. Thomas over our birthdays, mine October 13, and my
husband's October 14. It was the best birthday ever! Our family stayed
for 4 days at the condo and it were amazing, Heavenly Days for sure!
This was our first visit to the island and an all inclusive stay. The
days seemed endless, the sights were unbelievable, and the entire time
was great. Our condo was very nice with an amazing view of the bay.
The staff all were very welcoming and helpful. The food at both Iggies
and the Beach House was wonderful, and we were never hungry. We rented
a car and took the advise of some of the staff and visited the
different beaches, each one was beautiful. Our kids snorkeled forever
and seen many fish and even a sea turtle. My son who graduates in June
is now looking to go to school at the campus on the island for
oceanography. If he is accepted you will be seeing us again on many
occasion. I would also love to come down during carnival, that would
be so much fun.
No
Disappoint Here! Sept. 14th through Sept. 18th True Paradise July 27th - August 3rd 2006 My husband and I recently returned from another wonderful 2 week vacation to Bolongo Bay. It was our 5th trip in 3 years and it could not have been better! We chartered Heavenly Days for a trip to St. John for our 23rd anniversary and we could not have asked for a better way to spend it! We had the privilege of having 16 of our very good friends along with us, all locals. And a very capable and friendly crew. Thanks Capt. Peter, Lindsey and Chris, you are the best!! And thank you Rina, Richard, Paul and Colleen for your hospitality! We truly do feel we are home when we are there. And Scotty, a really big thanks to you for the name plates! As usual, the staff were all fantastic! All of them are very friendly and caring, from our housekeeper (Elvina) to all the wonderful people at Iggies and The Beach House.We are definitely looking forward to our next trip back to our "St. Thomas home"!! Sandy and Mack Yager, Greenville, Texas 7 days of all inclusive heaven! AUG. 27-July 3,
2006. Hey guys... Just wanted to let you know that our
family vacation there last year was the trip of a lifetime! We won a
Mastercard Sweepstakes and we chose Bolongo. We could have went anywhere
in the world...Seriously. But we chose St. Thomas, and after researching
the web, we decided on Bolongo Bay. Our choice could not have been any
better. The Caribbean was beautiful, as well as St. Thomas Island.
Bolongo was perfect. The beach was well maintained as well as private.
The jet skiing, catamaran tour, Iggies, golf, site-seeing, snorkeling,
and relaxing on the beach was unbelievable. The staff was top-notch and
courteous. Our party of 9 was thoroughly impressed.
Our visit to Bolongo Bay was most enjoyable, and it
was heartening to see that it remains a family resort. My children
fell in love with the resort, as did my wife and I when we stayed
there on our honeymoon in 1981. I couldn't think of a better place to
celebrate our 25th anniversary, than at Bolongo Bay, where my wife and
I began our life together.
sincerely hope that we will someday visit Bolongo again, and enjoy
your five star hospitality. All the staff members went the extra mile
to make us feel welcome, from the front door to the acrtivities hut.
Thank you. My wife and I had a
wonderful time at Bolongo and in the Virgin Iskands. We were treated
warmly and sincerely during our stay. Thank You for a wonderful
vacation. Hi from sunny California,
To the owners, it really says something great about you guys,
when your employees have worked there for so many years and talk about
you guys like family. We were just there July 19th thru July 23rd,
2006. Monday is a hard day back to work. We had a wonderful
time. The all inclusive is the way to go. Everyone is so
nice and pleasant. Chef Ric does incredible dinners at the Beach
House. Manager Heather was wonderful. Harry the bartender
was great. Harry's love potion and the bushwacker are awesome. Simon
the Doorman, Vernita which seems to wear alot of hats. I could go on
forever.....Tooo many names to mention.......Igges was great tooo.,
crab legs.....Carnival Night !...Karokake.....So many great memories.
It was just what we needed, stress free. We could do everything or
nothing at all...........We will certainly be back looking to make
this a yearly vacation........
Me and my husband spent a week at the Bolongo for our
anneversary (June 19th to the 25th) and I can't tell you how pefect it
was. Everyone was so nice and the food at The Beach House and Iggies
was great. We didn't really even leave the resort! We did take the day
sail to St. John and it was so much fun, and beautiful! We had so much
fun, I don't think it could have been any better you guys are the
best! Greetings, The trip home was fine, no problems other then the depression of leaving paradise. Our time at Bolongo was GREAT, but much too short. The people, beach, accommodations, scenery, hammocks, fruit-punch, food, Iggies. All was great. We thoroughly enjoyed it and are already talking about how to do it again next year... Also, many of our friends are asking questions about Bolongo after viewing our pictures. Looking forward to a return. Franklin & Amy (July '06) WOW!!!!! That about sums up our second visit to Bolongo Bay!! After a 2 year absence, most all of the staff remembered us! And the staff--from Rich and Katarina('Rina) to the people cleaning the pool--all are very outgoing and friendly! How cool it was to hear"Beau and Di--welcome home!" This time we went for 2 weeks--and it still wasn't enough!! We have sent several friends there, and none have been disappointed! And all, like ourselves, are already planning for next year. It is THE place in the Virgin Islands to have fun! And this trip we also discovered that other folks who want to have a ball are attracted to Bolongo Bay! So many new friends we have met there--so many other friends that work there--Tall Tom--Vernita(who really runs the place--knows ALL the neat stuff to do!)-Gloria, Harry,Paul, Connie--way too many to name! Eve, Jason, on and on! Feel free to E-mail us anytime for more info! Beau and Di McKinney---Beaunaries@aol.com---
Our
recent trip to St. Thomas was the most laid-back vacation my husband and
I have ever taken together. To us, this was a very good thing. To
others, it might not be. First of all, one has to understand
Bolongo Bay Beach Resort and its staff:
This is not the Ritz – this is a small privately owned resort, and it is
an adventure within itself! I’ve given this comment for the guest book
a lot of thought before beginning, because I knew I could not explain
and map out every minute of our five days at this wonderful place. I
also had to take into consideration that I am sending to all our friends
that usually frequent places like Napa Valley, Cabo
San Lucas, and a few other pricey destinations. So with that being
said, I will attempt to explain why one should visit this very unique
resort.
We spent our Honeymoon with you from April 18th 2006 to April 23rd
2006 and found it to be the perfect getaway. It is secluded just
enough for privacy and safety but not so much that you have to drive
forever to get to town. The staff was wonderful and very polite. The
rooms were comfortable and clean at all times. The entertainment was
great too. There was always something to do for all ages. The view was
magnificent and my wife and I loved it there and especially being our
first Caribbean vacation, it was more than we had expected. I would
VERY HIGHLY recommend this resort to anyone. Thanks to all your staff
for a job well done. We can't wait to visit again. Sincerely,
Hi there folks,
Our niece got married at Bolongo Bay on 2/11/06 and we had a
wonderful 6 days there. It exceeded our expectations! Joan and Ken Church
My daughter and I had the best “Girl’s Just want to have Fun”
package. We celebrated Rachel’s 25th birthday in
grand style. We still dream about the pancakes with rum syrup!
We enjoyed our massages and our private tour of the island. We
only left the resort on one occasion to have dinner. The food and
the staff the resort was just amazing. You can not get a more
perfect setting than having dinner overlooking the pool and the
Caribbean. We totally miss Iggie hanging out in front of our
room. We’ve decided Bolongo Beach is going to be our birthday
gift to ourselves. We felt very safe as the staff knew us by name
and always asked if we needed anything or if there was anything
they could do to make our stay more enjoyable. So, girls, if you
just want to have fun…stay at Bolongo. We had a very relaxing time at Bolongo. My 14 y/o went on his first ocean dive with your diving club and he had fabulous time. Marcelo and Randy on the beach were great. They really watch over the people in the water. All the included water sports kept my son occupied..not one "I'm bored" all week!! My husband and I got the rest we needed. Donna Capps To all the wonderful

It was a fantastic
trip. Your staff is incredible...doing everything to make our stay
perfect. Thanks again Our thanks to everyone at
Bolongo Bay Resort for an unforgetable family reunion.
We enjoyed our visit
at Bolongo Bay very much. The staff at the Beach Club, at the desk,
at the transportation hub, and at Iggies were very nice to us. And we
especially liked Marcello at the beach (he helped both my children a
lot), and Vernita who had many helpful tips for us.Hope to see you
again next year! Joy Leslie (aka The Legend) Kessang Bhutia & Edwin Leong

Thank you so much. We really enjoyed our stay and we'll be back.
Thanks, also, for the champagne to help us celebrate our 30th
anniversary..that was so thoughtful!We loved being able to walk right
out to the beach. Chef Ric is awesome! All in all, a great vacation.
We did have a wonderful time at Bolongo Bay. It was our first trip
to St. Thomas and we couldn't have had a more beautiful
introduction to the beautiful Island. I especially liked sitting
at Iggie's eating the great food and looking out at the beautiful
waters with a wonderful breeze blowing in. Breakfast was always
wonderful with a great view as well. The beach, while small, was
fun. We snorkeled in the gentle waters. Our friends, who stayed at
another hotel, were indeed envious of our view and being able to
hear the sounds of the sea as well.The people who work at Bolongo
Bay, couldn't have been nicer and were always there to help.
Thanks again for a great place that we will be telling others
about. name: Lauren M R.
As always, we can’t get enough of Bolongo Bay
and the Virgin Islands. We consider your wonderful beach and
facilities our personal haven. We were very impressed with the
improvements and face lift your resort has done. We look forward to
returning soon. We had a WONDERFUL time at your resort!!! The hospitality and service was outstanding. We will definitely be staying with you guys again when we return to St. Thomas.
