If you got pissed off with the traffic and noise in St. Thomas especially in Charlotte Amalie, treat yourself to the Island View Guest House. Still not that far from the town, this bath and bedroom hotel with 15 accommodations is about 500 feet up the Crown Mountain. Aside from being clean and fresh, this relaxing hotel offers a beautiful view of the town. Your room options vary from standard room with shared bath to deluxe suite with air-conditioner and balcony.

What would mark most on this hotel is the friendly and welcoming ambiance that the owners present. They even give advices on the best places to swim and snorkel as well as giving communal dinners for some nights. Located at the Scott Free Road, chill out at the bar and recognize what you like in this place most.
