The place in its prime was likely beautiful and the place to be. Currently in need of TLC. I rated it 4 of 5 because I can see the potential as long as you know what you’re in for…by no means does the resort look like the outdated photos but still a charming place. The service at the bar excellent, enjoyed talking with Sam nightly, sometimes daily, she’s always there. Currently no restaurant on property not even a BBQ available. We did prepare meals in our kitchen. Pool in ok shape, not many loungers by pool or beach as pictures show, but the beach a serene area, may be best on the island. If you go in expecting high end, you’ll be disappointed. Stay there with open mind and nobody said it’s the Ritz either. Sunsets and views are gorgeous

Won’t be disappointed if you are not expecting high end

Driveway entering BOB was terrible, multiple potholes difficult to navigate.Tennis court was unusable, when we checked in we were told the restaurant was gone, it was there when we booked. Vegetation too high to see the ocean at the pool, also no tables or chairs to sit at by the pool. They had 7 lounges to lay in, new. Pool needed work. The bathroom for the bar was in disrepair but in all fairness when we were leaving I saw workers working on it. Beach was clean and the bar was fully stocked and very friendly. We would rate our bungalow #24 a 3 out of 5. We saw the potential but they need better transparency.

Updated information was not shared with-us.

Dusty,dirty, roaches.
The owner threatened to Sue me because of my honest comments.
We stayed one night, never again.
Old bedding, green pool, no restaurant.
I have photos to prove we stayed one night.
The o wners need to stay in a bungalow and experience the same things we did.

Don’t go

This was one of the worst vacation experiences of my life. Cockroaches in the kitchen area, bathroom and closet. We had some kind of bug crawl into a glass on the counter. The bed sheets were old and worn out. The only electric outlet for the kitchen area was behind the refrigerator and was falling out. When I tried to reach behind the refrigerator, to plug in the coffee maker, I was shocked. We were going stay a week but had to check out after one night because of the extremely poor conditions. I do not recommend this place!

Bad experience at Bungalows on the Bay

unclean. rust on fridge, corroded door handles, nasty pool (not even marked for depth) no bath mats,  stained beach towels and live roaches.  We stayed 2 nights. For $250 a night. I’m not joking when I say it was preferable to face hurricane strength winds to pick a different hotel on a new island.

Gross

The property was well maintained, bungalows were adorable, clean, and well stocked. The staff was attentive and friendly. The scenery and view of Green Cay was gorgeous! I loved the beach and the pool (both had amazing water views. 
The restaurant/bar had incredible burgers and fries. The bartenders Ken and JK were entertaining and personable which made for a great experience. They have fun events every night of the week like bingo and live music.
 Jimmy and his family have worked so hard to make this a beautiful place to stay and have succeeded. I'd recommend this to anyone wanting to visit St. Croix. 

A beautiful and comfortable getaway

Everything from the beach to the bar/ restaurant and the general feel of the resort, bungalows was BEAUTIFUL! While we were there, they had plenty of live music and plenty of fun themed nights! Also, if you’re lucky, TD (the island dog) will greet you at the restaurant 😂

Beautiful!

Don’t miss out on an opportunity to enjoy this property.  It is a work in progress, but it is lovely.  The bungalow was clean.  The air conditioning worked flawlessly, hot and cold water worked fine, and the place is picture perfect beautiful.  The king-sized bed was extremely comfortable. The story of the owners’ journey is awe inspiring.  I think this should be an HGTV series.  Day by day, the property is improved.  The location is exceptional.  My bungalow, Number 6, came complete with a cat.  She prefers low-sodium turkey breast to lobster, FYI.  Every member of the staff I encountered was engaging and helpful.  The advice offered regarding where to go and what to do was spot on.  I would not hesitate to stay here again and am thinking of negotiating a month later in the year.  Of the five properties I’ve stayed in on the island (two condos and three hotels) this was by far the coolest.  Without exception, everyone was lovely.  The fellow guests were great.  Bands and trivia were entertaining.  The bay, for boating, snorkeling, or swimming is wonderful. The vibe here is so excellent.  You won’t be disappointed.   

Delightful Stay in Bungalow 6

Glad to see new owners rejuvenating the property, but they have a way to go.  They've done some major work, but sometimes it's the little things that make a difference.  Table with coffee/tea needs - sugar, cups, etc.- but no coffee or water in the pot; no breakfast offered.  Empty ice tray in freezer, nothing in room, even salt and pepper.  Folks arrive late night, no way to get snack or food for breakfast.  We were promised special treat for birthday dinner, but nothing done or said.  And, they spelled Caribbean wrong on their website!

It's a lovely property with great potential; I hope they are able to make it work.  Our son stayed there, but doesn't have a computer so we're writing for him.  

A Work In Progress

Free standing bungalows are quiet and located near the beach. This is a much better experience than a condo. Great views, friendly staff. New ownership are good people and plan further improvements. 
Good location east of Christiansted.
