This was a return trip from six years ago. So sad. The grounds were unkempt. The lighting around the entire property was physically destroyed. The rooms were dirty and unchanged from 6 years ago. There was filth in the microwave, no coffee and damaged tiles in the bathroom. The rooms had smoke detectors or sprinklers. The staff was trying their best - truly. Pleasant and professional. But we learned that the new owner is just milking the Cove for cash and making no effort to improve the resort - let alone make it safe. It pains me to write this. The location is excellent. The staff trying their best with no help from the owner.

A quaint property tucked away just 3 miles from the Christiansted Boardwalk. We had a short stay, but our experience was just wonderful. The staff went above and beyond to accommodate us, and they were so very friendly! The food was delicious, with nice-sized portions; we loved that there was entertainment. A lovely pool on the property with private beach access, and we loved having our complimentary morning coffee on the beach. Our room was clean, with a beautiful ocean view. A taxi is required if you don't rent a car to go off the property, Soria, the Hotel Manager personally arranged one for us who became our go-to-transportation during our stay. Soria and her staff are working extremely hard to revitalize this sweet little place! A big shout out to Soria, Shay, James, Patrick, Keyjon, Ani & 'Houston' for going above and beyond and taking such good care of us. We came as guests and left as family. We will be back!

The staff is friendly. The view is gorgeous and the pool area, bar and restaurant areas are very nice. The room is in disrepair. My toilet did not work. I did not have a functioning toilet from soon after my check in until 4:00pm the next day. The repair person came to fix it but it still did not function properly. The room was dirty and much dust in the corners. I saw shampoo bottles attached to the wall of the shower and assumed there was shampoo in them. There was no shampoo in the shower and there were no small bottles of shampoo on the vanity counter. I had to wash my hair with soap. My son was served a warm margarita at the bar and was told that the blender was broken so they were not able to make any frozen drinks. I needed water and asked the bar tender if I could purchase some but the bartender could not find a bottle of water. I was not able to have any drinking water until later in the day when someone found one to purchase. The front desk usually sells water but they were not open in the morning.

The hotel’s idyllic location right on the beach affords breathtaking views as well as fantastic opportunities to take a dip. For those who prefer pools, there is a pool available with ample areas for sun bathing. The shaded areas and the cabanas offer respite from the sun. As common with properties by the beach, the sea mist and sun will relentlessly affect paint, metal, fixtures, etc. This beautiful property could use some aesthetic upkeep. The amiable staff and service are eager to please and they desire to make your stay remarkable. The kitchen has several selections to appeal to varied tastes. I have stayed at The Palms on many occasions, over the past 20 years and it is my go-to place when visiting St. Croix. Shout out to the current manager and staff who are working hard to maintain this ideal location!

It was a nice place with a good view. It is away from the true downtown, 3 mile walk, but it’s nice. Friendly people but not enough people working to keep the bar open sadly.

Very slow check in process. Took about an hour. No working ice machine. The rooms were ok and the beach was beautiful but not able to swim due to rip tides. Our room door would open easily due to getting stuck on the floor. And when they painted it was sloppy with paint on bathe cabinets and faucet. Had to get a blow dryer and the shower soap dispenser was not working or empty. The food was subpar at the restaurant-which was closed more than open. No one available at check out.

I’ve stayed at this location before and you can’t beat the location. It’s just the sound of the waves and it’s right outside your door. The maintenance of the landscaping could be better. I know that there has been more rain than usual but this shouldn’t be an excuse. The parking area was also overgrown and could use better security lighting. The room was clean and neat but the TV and fire stick was disconnected from the power that was stretched from behind the refrigerator. I think that the power cords could be managed more like a hotel than a teenager’s bedroom. It’s a good place to stay for the price and the staff was very friendly and helpful.

The hotel was in very poor condition. The TV didn’t work, the safe didn’t work, the phone didn’t work and there were exposed wires in the room, which is dangerous. The bathroom had broken racks and tp holder. The fixtures had white crud all over them and were unsanitary. The dressers were all scratched up and dirty. The pool was cloudy with rust on the sides and couldn’t be used. There was trash around the area as well as the garbage cans were never emptied and smelled. The Restaurant was always closed and it was rare to reach anyone. We tried many times to contact the general manager by phone and email and she never replied or answered. The grounds were also unkept. We took photos of all the problems. We checked out after staying only one night and are still waiting to hear back for a refund of the 6 nights we didn’t use. Upon leaving we spoke to the office assistant who told us we would be refunded. It has been a week and we are still waiting so we will now try to get a charge back through our credit card. We also contacted Expedia and have a case no. They also tried to contact the hotel with no response.
