The rooms are large, clean and comfortable. Standard Marriott timeshare rooms. The beach is rocky and the pool area small. You keep hearing that Marriott is going to clean up the beach and move some of the rocks, but I truly don't believe that is going to happen. No town to speak of, restaurants were consistently good. We never had any problem with the staff or service at the resort. Didn't have a bug problem.

The best part of St. Thomas is the side trips this destination allows you to take. St. John's is incredible. Jost Van Dyke fun, guaranteed to see marine life on the snorkling trips. It seems in skimming the posts that everyone was happy with their side trips so it appears you can't go wrong with whichever one you book and these trips make the vacation memorable.

I would rate this property as being very clean, modern, and convinent. However, allow me to forewarn you! The http://www.travelvi.com/us-virgin-islands/virgin-islands-sand-fleas-and-flies/virgin-islands-sand-fleas-and-flies.html are horrible. No one warned us about these insects, and needless to say that our bites have consumed our vacation. I have over 80 and my husband has over 125 bites. We are miserable and can't wait to get off this island. We are covered from neck to toe! Also, the service from the front desk to the store to the bar/restrauant is less than desirable. They could really careless if we were there or not....
Would we come back? Yes, but next time we will know what to expect, and I believe the management should be a little more concerned with the lack of client/customer services in my opinion.If nothing else, put a smile on your face and pretend to like the fact that we are here spending our hard earned money......

We just returned from our stay at Marriotts Frenchmens Cove. The rooms were very clean, and modern with fabulous views. The pool was very nice with plenty of chairs, water slide for the kids, volleyball net, and daily activites for kids and adults. Yes there are iguanas on the property around the pool and beach areas. These critters were fun to watch and we never at any time saw a problem with anyone during our stay. I had read on here prior to our visit that they had been attacked by them. Well with any animal, if you are feeding it, it will come after you for more. No one was feeding them and they were not an issue during our stay. Love the covered parking garages. Beach is small but pretty, and there was plenty of room for everyone and free use of chairs and umbrellas. Would definately return to this hotel.

We are a family of seven. Stayed in a two bedroom unit, Virgin Gorda building, 3rd floor. Very satisfied with the accommodations. We didn't cook in the unit for dinner, but had breakfast, snacks and lunch. Beach towels in the room, no need to bring any. A/C works great. Washer/dryer combo very small, but handy to have! Fits about two towels and a t shirt per load.( no kidding) Beds are comfy. The cove beach is small, but beautiful. We didn't have any issues with the coral, urchins or iguanas. Always a chair to be found. Food good at the beach grill. We've had a great family vacation. Walked several times over to the other Marriotts for exercise and to check it out. Saw fireworks on the morning side beach. Pools are cool at the reef hotel. We will come back.
