The best thing about this hotel is the location. Smack on a gorgeous beach - waves practically come up to the stairs of the bar. We also liked the overall size and vibe. Less resorty - more boutique. We had a beautiful, contemporary ocean front room. Friends had a room on the hill and it was a bit dated. Don't miss the walk/ride to Smuggler's Cove or the tacos at Patricia's bar.

Check-in was painful. The room was not ready at check in time and they couldn't even find a few beach towels for us to use while we waited (but kudos to the young man who went to the laundry to try to get some). The pool area desperately needs some shade. Lots of concrete and glaring sun.

YOU MUST BUY BREAKFAST WITH YOUR ROOM! This is the only way to go. It was over $200 each time we ate breakfast (2ppl) so to have it included in your stay is super smart. We also had dinner included as well, which was also extremely helpful. This might have been because we traveled in low season and a property only special but it is a must. So expensive the food. The room was fantastic. We were beach front! It was awesome. Our shower was gigantic and had a window overlooking the beach! Very sexy. The bed is low to the ground so this may be a problem for some ppl. The room was equipped with a large storage area for your clothes with hangers, a safe, mini fridge, coffee bar, desk with clock, and more. The resort provided 3 to 4 cardboard water bottles a day at no charge which was fantastic. The balcony had screens to block out the bugs but let in the air. Every night you could see the sunset from your room. So worth it. Id come back and stay here but not as long, we stayed 5 days and found ourselves a little stir crazy, only cause we are adventurous ppl

MOSQUITOS are horrible! bring spray! The room was hot as hell upon entering and they have a wall ac unit so it took hours to cool down. be sure to keep the doors closed. This property is located on the best beach in Tortola hands down; however, you cant go out in the water in many spots because of the rocks! and the surf was quite rough. There are spots where you can walk out but you will have to walk down to them, but its not far, and worth it. The property really needs to work on getting their beach set ups fixed up. They are in great shape but just not fully set up for everyone to use. I did not like the drive here. YALL, we are in TX where its flat. Its very mountainous, switchbacks and steep roads. Have nerves of steel or dont drive.

Location is stellar, right on the pristine beach. Staff were incredibly friendly and wonderfully attentive, and went out of their way to cater to our every need. Rooms were recently redone and well appointed. Ground floor suite opened right up onto the beach and the location / spot was amazing. Restaurant was very good, especially for the Caribbean. We travel a lot and can say that this resort and the staff far exceeded our expectations. Intimate place, friendly staff, and top location on the beach.

We did not like that the hotel allowed day guests from cruise ships. They brought a different vibe, took up space at the bar as well as lounge chairs. Changed the mood of the place when they were there. Also did not appreciate that the pool was not open for our stay. That should have been better communicated.

The property is located in the most unbelievable setting of beauty. Everything is perfect at long bay. The ocean color is fabulous and has beautiful waves creating peaceful sounds. There’s plenty of places to sit and take in all the magic of the Virgin Islands and the staff is friendly and smiling faces.

It’s very peaceful and with that being said if you are looking for a party long bay is not your place. I enjoyed the peace and quiet but could have stood a little more sound of chatter and music.

We stayed here for 3 nights at the end of our island vacation. I booked a beachfront walkout room and it was incredible. The views are stupendous, and the resort was clean and grounds kempt. We loved the large private patio, easy access to the beach, and close proximity to the bar/restaurant. The pool is across the street hillside, but was still easy to find and the bartender was friendly. Staff was helpful and polite. I recommend taking advantage of morning yoga if it’s available on a morning you are there. We had very windy days so the waves were large, and couldn’t swim or kayak. However we did stroll down to the far east end of the beach and could walk out fairly far into the waves because there were no rocks at that end of the beach. The water is shallow, so boogie-boarding was great. Food at the restaurant is yummy, we especially loved the chicken wings and the blueberry pancakes! Overall a perfectly relaxing stay at this little gem of a resort.

At no fault to the resort, it is a bit tricky to get to. Make sure you are timing your taxi, and ferry rides with your flights on another island. While it does take some effort to get to, it’s well worth it in the end.

Beautiful location and grounds, every detail of the hotel decor was gorgeous and calming. staff was so friendly and helped with everything you could ask for. great food and drinks.

the bathrooms have no privacy. the toilet has no ceiling and is completely open to the rest of the room… never good

The staff were wonderful (Akil, Katelyn and the whole crew), they sent a taxi to the ferry terminal when we arrived after a long travel day, gave great suggestions for day activities and helped set them up with excellent drivers and guides. They were friendly, responsive, and got stuff done! The room was beautiful, comfortable, awesome view. The resort is right on the water, and if you want even more beach they will shuttle you for free to Smuggler's Cove, a lovely beach with a beach bar/cafe.

Location is a little out of the way, you need taxis to go anywhere, so bring lots of cash for cabs and tips. Restaurant was good but menu (esp dinner menu) somewhat limited. It would be great if they offered an option with breakfast included when booking the room.

Food at on-site restaurant, 1748, was very good. Little coffee shop (also on-site) had good drinks and selection of pastries. Johnny's bar was fantastic. Stellar views of the ocean and wonderful concoctions. Rooms were cleaned well each day and staff was very accommodating and friendly. Decor in the room very pretty (looked exactly like on-line pictures) and linens were very comfortable. Location close to several other great restaurants (you will still need to drive, hills make walking very daunting). Close enough to walk to Smuggler's Cove, a nice little "hidden" beach. View of the ocean from our hillside villa was not blocked and very beautiful. We spent a lot of time on our deck, staggered construction offered privacy from other guests decks.

Beach was a bit rocky once you got in the water. Construction of new villas was going on at the time of our visit, so it was a bit noisy. Roosters woke us up the first few mornings, but eventually sound blended in and became part of the overall charm of the resort. No instructions in the room on how to to use the streaming services. Room service did not come to our room, we had to order from the restaurant and then they ran us back and forth to our room. Would have been great if they had delivered directly so we could relax. No itemized bill provided at check-out, hard copy would be very much appreciated. Fan in the bathroom as VERY loud.

Beautiful beach position. Extremely well maintained..beautiful gardens. Lovely pools. Rooms were fantastic, high quality bedding,large bathroom and bedroom with sofa looking out to the beach. Direct beach access. Good gym and pickleball and tennis courts with tuition available. Good restaurant and bar.

VERY EXPENSIVE, especially when service and taxes added on

Very nice rooms and food was good. Gym was large and well equipped.

Pool area was not that inviting and did not have a lot of shade options. Beach by the hotel was very difficult for swimming due to rocks.
