Great condo in quiet and safe location!
Very quiet and safe location. Close to 2 restaurants at resort next door. Also close to Red Hook for multiple restaurants and stores. Best equipped kitchen in condo ever! Also plenty of towels and beach towels. Bill checked in with us after 2 days to ensure all was well. He was quick to respond to questions. We never contacted local property manager. Definitely recommend Waters Edge to all!

Great Property and Perfect Location
My wife and I recently stayed here for five days. The layout of the condo is fantastic with a well stocked kitchen and everything you need to enjoy your stay. The views from the Kitchen, Living Room, and Master Bedroom are incredible (Overlooking the Bay/Marina). The property is well maintained internally, and the external landscaping is lush. The place really is a tropical paradise. The beach is fantastic and it was easy to get chairs and shade for lounging. There are two restaurants very close (walking distance) that serve up good food (Sangria's for breakfast, Lunch and an early dinner, or Caribbean Fish Market for more of an upscale vibe). The owners were very responsive and available to answer any questions we had. This place is a true gem and we will be coming back!!!

Lovely place!
The location of this condo is excellent. Very close to Red Hook, where there are lots of great restaurants, and right on the beach. The views are fabulous. We didn't use the pool but we did eat at the on-site restaurant and booked a snorkeling trip through the on-site concierge. Both were wonderful. I had to communicate with the owner and the property manager during our stay - there was a pipe issue in the condo development and the water to the unit was shut off for several hours on our first day. I couldn't reach the property manager on the first try so emailed the owners. The property manager and owners got back to me shortly after and explained the situation. A head's up on the water situation would have been great, but it wasn't too much of a problem, as we used the restroom at the pool, which was still operational. The fire alarm in the unit chirped throughout the third night of our stay, so we just removed the battery (couldn't find another 9v battery), but that wasn't a big deal either. The large coffee maker seemed to be broken, but the smaller coffee maker worked beautifully. We also had groceries delivered to the condo, and that worked out very smoothly as well. The taxi services all are very familiar with the condo development and location, so transportation wasn't an issue (we didn't rent a car). There was a vehicle parked in "our" parking spot for the week, but since we didn't have a car it didn't impact us at all. Lovely place!

Waters Edge is exceptional
Great location close to Red Hook. Very nicely decorated with all updated appliances. We mostly appreciated the outdoor furniture as we spent the majority of our time at the condo outdoors enjoying the view and the ocean breeze. Everything you need is there. It is just a short walk to the Yacht Club, the Caribbean Fish Market and Sangrias. There are always plenty of beach chairs available. The pool and hot tub were very enjoyable. We had family members staying in other units T Cowpet West. Although theirs were very nice, this one was exceptional.

Highly recommend !
We had a wonderful long vacation in this beautiful, well stocked condo on the beach in St Thomas. From the beautiful decor to the all of the touches of home, the condo was a perfect pick for us. We had coffee on the porch every morning listening and watching the waves and enjoyed being able to walk to a delicious restaurant, bar and pool. It was perfectly located for everything we wanted to do including taking the ferry to St John, dining out, shopping and just hanging out on the beautiful quiet beach. Check in and out was so easy and there was a lot of information in the condo as far as things we might need and recommendations. We loved our stay and will definitely be back!!

Amazing view!
The view was incredible! The condo was great, super cozy and looked exactly as it did in the listing pictures . Fully stocked kitchen, lots of beach towels and only a 2 min walk down to the beach. The beach was not crowded and I was always able to get a lounge chair. The beach side bar and grill made AMAZING pizzas which we ate frequently during our 2 week stay. We had just a great time staying in the condo and enjoyed relaxing on the balcony and listening to the waves! I would recommend to my friends and family. ❤️

Beautiful location and condo
This is a fantastic property. The view from the balcony is wonderful and the balcony is large. You can hear the water lapping against the shore even with the sliding glass doors closed! The condo was immaculate and there were so many little extras in the condo that it made our stay so much easier (noodles, coolers, paper towels, trash bags, spices, hand soap, etc.) The condo is also located on a beautiful beach. The sand is soft and white. There are plenty of lounge chairs and palm trees for shade. The water is clear blue for swimming and there are fish and the occasional ray will swim by. There is even a good snorkeling spot accessible right off the beach. There are two restaurants and a little pool bar which is fun for a frozen drink on the beach. I cannot say enough nice things about the property or the owners. They were helpful and easy to communicate with throughout the rental process and our stay. We hope to return next year!

This condo and its location could not have been better! Everything was exactly as described. From the moment we walked in and looked straight out at the sailboats in the sparkling clear water until the end of the day with cocktails on the porch…perfection! The condo was stocked with everything one could think of. Our host was extremely helpful. We hope to return to these little piece of paradise! Thank you!

Perfect location for getaway
The condo was in an excellent location. Its beach was never too crowded yet it had all of the amenities- plenty of loungers, equipment rental, a fun, casual grill and a more upscale restaurant. It was a very short drive to the restaurants and nightlife of Redhook yet had a secluded vibe. Condo size was perfect for our family of four. There was a constant gentle breeze and a soundtrack of gentle waves hugging the shoreline. We would highly recommend Bill’s Cowpet Bay west condo.

Beautiful balcony view in Cowpet Bay
My mom, two sisters and I traveled to St Thomas for her 60th birthday and we had such a fun time together! Bill and the property management team was great and always ready to help when we had questions. The view from the balcony was beautiful, beach was great and pool was nice! It was great having onsite laundry and towels provided at the house. Super close to restaurants and even the onsite restaurant had delicious sea food! You may want to think about bringing your own beach/snorkel gear when you travel here since there weren't any onsite. Thanks again!

Great Condo!
My brother and I spent about a week in the USVI and used this condo as home base. This condo is right on the beach with beautiful views. Each morning while having coffee and breakfast on the balcony, we would watch great herons (white and blue) fishing for their breakfast. We also enjoyed all the boats coming and going in the bay. The condo was very clean and well appointed. There were basic grocery items left that were useful. We made sure to leave the usable leftovers from our groceries for the next guest as well. The onsite restaurant was nice, but make sure to make a reservation. The diving along the left side of the bay was fun. Great place to be for a week. Second time renting from this host, and hope to repeat again soon. Great condo!

The perfect home away from home
We came to stay for a last minute mini moon after our wedding. The home was very charming, clean, and well equipped. Perfect location with incredible views. The host was very pleasant to work with and accommodating for check-in/out requests. Gorgeous updates to the unit. We wish we could have stayed longer! The views from the balcony were amazing - a perfect place to relax with cup of coffee in the morning and glass of wine at night. We will definitely be back!

Perfect in every way. My daughter and I loved this condo! Very well maintained and has everything you need. Close proximity to all the fun stuff the island has to offer. The beach is gorgeous and the sound of the waves at night lulled me to sleep. Slept like a baby on the comfy bed. Gorgeous views! The owner made the booking process a breeze and checked in on us during our stay. Best place to stay on the island!

Wonderful Vacation
We stayed for a week in late June/early July. The condo is GREAT! The location is perfect, as it is near Red Hook, the ferry to St John, and several good places to eat. The pool is clean and there are lots of chairs. We spent several evenings and mornings just relaxing on the balcony. The kitchen is well appointed which made eating in very easy! The owners answered several questions prior to our stay and provided a few places to eat as well. We will definitely stay here again!! THANK YOU!!

Great location on Cowpet Bay!
My wife and I enjoyed two beautiful weeks at Water's Edge. This is surely one of the best units at the Cowpet West complex. Very nicely decorated, recently rehabbed, and well equipped. The location is equidistant from two grocery stores and very convenient to the west end marinas, Red Hook, and the ferry to St John. Great breeze off the water so no need for the AC (which works fine if you need it). Walk to the beach for an early morning swim, lunch at the St Thomas Yacht Club, or to dinner at Caribbean Fish Market, or just relax on the balcony watching the boats come and go. Sailors will love it! We certainly hope to return!

Great Condo, Great Location!
Loved our long weekend at Waters Edge. The condo was well appointed and had everything we needed. It is even nicer than the pictures. Only a 5 minute drive to Redhook to catch the ferry, hit the grocery store or dine at one of the multiple bars or restaurants. Bill and Lorraine were very responsive and made everything a breeze. Spent one day touring the St. Thomas beaches (including the one on property) and caught the ferry to St. John's the next. Can't wait to go back - and would stay here again for sure! I miss the view from the balcony already.

Literally at waters edge with fun view of 55 boats
Unit was well furnished with particularly comfy patio furniture, one new shower stall of two,...no tub, close parking, stairs of five, seven and seven which they all have..little tough in our 70's, three TV's, decent dishes, pots and pans, spices, cold fridge but ice maker not working, quiet neighbors, strolling beach to wonderful Caribbean Fish House with great live music (a surprise), good bedding, constant breezes that fill the unit with no need for AC that coups you up, Would return for sure.

Great Condo with Amazing Views
I stayed at this condo with my wife for 5 nights. The views of Cowpet Bay from the kitchen, living room, and master bedroom are amazing. The amenities at this complex are excellent with a beach, 2 restaurants, a pool and hot tub, and a gym ($5/day per person charge for the gym only). The unit is completely functional with 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, laundry, a fully stocked kitchen, 3 TVs, and a great covered porch. I would highly recommend this unit to anyone looking for a great vacation.

perfect
This was our first trip to St Thomas and this was the perfect location and condo. The east end of the island has everything you need for a visit. The beach, view, bay are all gorgeous. The condo was organized, clean, comfortable, the deck is large overlooking Cowpet bay. The TVs, WIFI, electronics, gate, parking, appliances all worked great. They brought a tub with water/flowers to rinse the sand off your feet. We cooked most nights, the kitchen is fully stocked. Two grocery stores nearly, one on the way and one is red hook. Or you can eat at the restaurant for all your meals. You can rent beach items such as snorkel, fins, boards from the beach hut, the restaurant is excellent. You can snorkel right off shore, coral, conch, urchins. It is a gated community. We rented a jeep which you need to get around, the driving is left side of the road with american cars, steep, windy roads across the island. Only Budget lets you take the vehicle to St John by ferry. We took the day sail trip associated with the resort New Horizons, which was excellent, breakfast, , full sail across to St John, snorkel honeymoon beach, swam with two porpoise, lunch on boat and then to St James Island for second snorkel. Perfect vacation for our family. The owners were helpful and just great.

Perfect location!
We just returned from a fabulous week at this wonderful condo. Everything was so clean and well-outfitted on our arrival, and there were helpful notes to guide us. My family and I had never been to the US Virgin Islands, so we weren't sure what to expect, but everything was lovely! The view from the condo balcony is gorgeous, and we always had a cooling breeze. Right down a few steps was the beach, and we really enjoyed snorkeling in the little bay and sitting in the shade relaxing. The pool and jacuzzi were right there too. We loved the two restaurants right on the beach--so convenient! We also walked up the road a bit to have dinner and listen to live music at the Blue Water restaurant at the Ritz. It was magical! Truly a memorable vacation!

Nothing better then waking up from your cozy comfortable bed and being able to go sit out on an amazing balcony to drink your coffee and watch the sunrise over the ocean.Water's edge is great location. The unit is clean and well maintained. If an issue does arise there are plenty of on island numbers to call on for Service. I have a son who lives on the island so I plan to rent the unit again when I visit him next time.
