Grande Bay Resort and Residence Club

A new star in the TripAdvisor constellation

TripAdvisor (www.TripAdvisor.com), the most recognized source of guest feedback for hotels and resorts started tracking Grande Bay Resort guest feedback this year after the introduction of a new hospitality team and high quality resort services.

The results have been sensational.   We know that the Cruz Bay location would be a favorite, but the wonderful reaction to the resort staff and the amenities has been gratifying.

An recent example of a guest comment from Michell M (Milwaukee, WS) on TripAdvisor:  "I cannot say enough great things about Grande Bay Resort.  The view is incredible.  The location is amazing.  The staff were simply the finest and the bed was like sleeping on a cloud.  It is a 3 minute walk from the ferry to the resort."   We invite you to go to TripAdvisor to see all of these reviews (http://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotel_Review-g147410-d1817399-Reviews-Grande_Bay_Resort-Cruz_Bay_St_John_U_S_Virgin_Islands.html#REVIEWS).

This Grande Bay Resort experience has accelerated sales for the Grande Bay Residences.   One, two, three bedroom fully furnished condominiums are available on a fractional or full ownership basis starting at $9,900.

"76 steps"

That's what a Grande Bay owner said when he realized the distance from the entrance of Grande Bay to the entrance to the Wharfside Village, the heart of Cruz Bay's finest dining, shopping and gallery strolling.

"Everyone knows that real estate value starts with location, location, location," said John Alvarado, Director of Sales at Grande Bay.  

"There is nothing in all of Cruz Bay that offers spacious villas, luxury services and resort style amenities along with private underground parking at an ocean front location. Because sales results have been so encouraging, we have decided to accelerate the timing for the next round of price increases."

Grande Bay opens hospitality center

John Alvarado, Director of Sales for Grande Bay Residence Club, announced the opening of the Grande Bay Hospitality Center located in the Wharfside Galleria, just steps from the ferry dock in Cruz Bay.    

“Our objective of the Hospitality Center is to provide a simple, convenient and fun way to introduce the unusual benefits of the Grande Bay Residence Club to St. John visitors.  We provide an unparalleled experience in terms our location in St. John, as well as a superb focus on service and amenities.  With the combination of our Jeep and Yacht club, we invite our members to enjoy the full St. John experience.

"The idea that someone can own a lifetime of vacations at St. John’s newest resort, ocean front on Cruz Bay with resort style amenities and services and private underground parking starting from $9,900 is extremely appealing.  We expected a positive but small reaction leading up to the holidays but the response to date has been incredible and has kept us all very busy. ”

Guests at the Hospitality Center can sample complimentary variety of lattes, espressos, cappuccinos, and enjoy special tasting sessions with different rums of the Caribbean while watching sporting events on our large screen TV.  The Center is open daily from 9 am to 8 pm.
