St John Travel Reviews from Guests of Blue Orchid at Gallows Point Resort
“Gallows Point 15A is a special place. It's truly nothing short of paradise. Spectacular sunsets sitting in the swing or the aptly located hot tub. Friendly / knowledgeable staff. Town is a hop skip and a jump away to amazing restaurants like Paradiso and D'Alivio's. The place itself is beautifully decorated, highly functional, and comfortable all at the same time. It was like 1000 Saturdays. I can't wait to come back.”

“Gallows Point should be your first choice for an exclusive vacation. It is located on the Caribbean Sea on the island of St. John. 15A suite is just a few steps away from the sea with it's breathtaking view from the windows. The beauty of nature is impossible to describe by using just a pen and paper. Outstanding suite and exceptional service match the hotel's spellbinding beauty. Amazingly decorated bathroom, cozy living room make you feel like this is your second home you never want to leave. For somebody who loves experiencing fine dining tasting or wide selection of wine lists this is the place for you. This was my first time in the Caribbean and my trip was unforgettable.”

“We had a wonderful time at Gallows Point. The unit 15A is beautiful. We would definitely request to stay there again! It is in the perfect location – with spectacular views and just a few steps away from snorkeling and the swimming pool. It is tastefully decorated and comfortable. We hope to stay there again and again.”

“Since 1964, we have visited the Virgin Island numerous times. We much prefer St. John for the beauty, lack of frenzy and tranquility. It also has by far the most scenic vistas and superior beaches. There is abundant shopping. In that period we have stayed at most of the available places on the Island. Of all, Gallows Point is our favorite and within that compound the particular unit of 15A is also our favorite.The location at the end of the peninsula has multiple advantages, with virtually no foot traffic. In particular, the view is among the best, a delightful gazebo outside adds to this as does the proximity to the pool and the water entry to Pillsbury Sound where wonderful snorkeling is steps away. The front porch consumes hours of undistrubed meditation and reading. The updated renovation of the interior is not only beautiful, comfortable and is also very efficient. We cooked, barbecued and hosted cocktail and light repasts for 12 in this well planned layout. The visitor needs only bring food and drink.Every other aspect of one's visit is readily available. The designer bathroom deserves special attention - in fact, it has the most beautiful shower I have ever seen.
We look back upon our visits here with undiluted joy!”

“What a joy to stay in this gorgeous place, with its spectacular view over Cruz Bay and the Caribbean. It’s so delightful to have breakfast on the porch, watching the boats and listening to the sounds of the waves splashing on the rocks just below. The luxuriously furnished and beautifully decorated unit was such a pleasure to be in—with all of comforts of home, plus many special touches that make it especially attractive. We could not have been happier here! For an amazing, peaceful, and tranquil getaway surrounded by natural beauty, this is the place!”
