Estate Solitude East accommodation

Love this resort, revisited 30 years after our first visit. So fun. Owner's hosting of a garden walk where she discussed the beautiful trees and plants on the grounds was an exceptional experience. Room was close to a pool and the Caribbean and was outstanding. Free breakfasts were exceptional and views breathtaking. This is still a family owned resort with a golf course. Dinners were consistently good with several locations to choose for dinner. For a low-key, island-easy place to experience St. Croix, I highly recommend this resort.

Overall, we had a pleasant stay and really enjoyed the staff. Everyone we interacted with was friendly, helpful, and welcoming, and I would easily rate the staff 5/5. The resort itself was enjoyable, but some areas and facilities felt a little dated or worn and could benefit from some updates. In our room, a few of the lights were not working, and the shower water pressure was fairly low. The food was generally very good. The bar food was solid, although nothing especially impressive—pretty much what you would expect from typical bar food. Breakfast and dinner were both quite good, though, with plenty of options. We definitely ate more than we should have most nights, which probably says enough about how much we enjoyed it. The main downside for us was the beach. There was a large amount of seaweed along the shoreline, and it did not appear to be cleared daily. In some areas, the buildup was close to a foot high and extended several yards up the beach, which made it harder to fully enjoy the shoreline. Despite those issues, the staff and food made a very positive impression and helped make our stay enjoyable. With some facility updates, room maintenance, and more consistent beach cleanup, this could be an even better resort experience.

I very much enjoyed my stay here. It is located right on the Boardwalk. Very close to lots of restaurants and bars. My room was clean. The air conditioning was amazing. The staff was even better. I don’t think I have ever met such nice people working in a hotel. I will definitely be back!
