Centrally located. Manager Lyndsey was great! Helped settle us in and great recommendations for restaurants and activities. I would stay here again!
8.0
The managers are lovely, very helpful with advice and assistance with minor issues. The room was comfortable, although the bathroom could really use freshening up.
The kitchenette was adequate for preparing breakfasts and warming up food. A nespresso or Keurig machine would be great and tell guests to bring their own pods. The splash pool and deck are well designed and offer a great sunset view.
Although the location is close to town, walking there requires navigating down one of three stairways. The hotel needs to be clear that the historic "99 steps" choice is not safe or practicable for some travelers. The historic steps are in poor condition and were not built with standard rise/run ratios. The stair surfaces are uneven, bricks have shifted, there are potholes in places, and the handrail is missing in spots and about to fall over in other sections. I'll try to add a clip of the swaying handrail. Anyone with any balance issues would want to avoid this stairway. A stairway down the road a bit to the west in front of the Governor's house could be a better option, but might be slippery when wet. The hotel should provide more complete information so folks can judge before booking whether they will need taxis to get to town for meals and shopping.
A second issue was housekeeping. We don't need much, but I think there's a $25/day fee. For that we got the garbage emptied most days and 2 fresh towels one day when I ran into the housekeeper. No sweeping, linen change or cleaning surfaces. $175 for a 7 night stay seems excessive.

Very clean little inn. Kitchen had all necessities. Within walking distance to town and bay trail. Owners communication before and during stay was great. Cute and clean property.
One night neighborhood below was loud.

Friendly staff, nice new pool and deck, clean and comfortable and very chill vibe throughout. Nothing fancy, just a nice place. Lovely views of the harbor from the rooms. Pretty quick walk down the hill into town.
No real “dislikes”. Guests should be aware that it is a big hill and a lot of stairs to walk down - and especially back up - from downtown Charlotte Amalie. For us, it was just a nice way to burn off a few dinner calories but some older or less mobile guests might need to take a taxi.

Had everything you needed in room. Like a small one room apartment.

Super friendly and supportive hosts. Well positioned to visit the island. The room was always clean, with air conditioning (must have!!!) and a good shower. We liked also the swimming pool. Great experience overall, suggested!

The property owners are GEMS. The couple have been there for years and you can tell they are really passionate about their place. We had the loveliest stay in the rooms that were clean and well maintained. I can't recommend this location enough!
9.0
The owners were great, during check-in they gave us a little bit of information regarding what is where and how to get there from the Hotel. Our room was clean and ready when we got there, air conditioning was fantastic, the hotel has a nice pool and it is in a nice and quiet hill location.
We don't have anything we didn't like during our stay. If you dont care about luxury, this is the place to be. It doesnt feel like a hotel, it feels like a nice small apt. Which is nice because you can truly just relax, have enough space for your bags, and even watch TV! My fiancée didn't like how soft the bed was, but she didn't mention anything until we left, however, I thought the bed was perfect for me! If you have issues during your stay, definitely let the owners know, so they can correct it. Otherwise, we highly recommend this place.

loved the view from the property. The rooms were large, very clean, very well outfitted with essentials like a wine opener and wine glasses. nice coffee maker and supplies. Gwen and a John were lovely and very helpful.
Not really a negative but just know that the great view comes with a hike down to town. we would walk down and grab a cab back up the hill.

Green Iguana is quaint and charming with an unbeatable sea/island/city view from our room. resident managers were friendly and helpful. the property is unique, not at all a typical hotel, and the well lived in space is clean and comfort with all the basic amenities
8.0
Have stayed here before on the beginning or ends of weeklong sailing trips to the BVI. We love the location. It's 11 minutes from the airport and even closer to the Ferry port. It's a short walking distance to the town restaurants and shops. Beautiful views along the way. Loved the new pool addition although we did not get to use given our schedule. Gwen and John (managers) are always more than accommodating! There is a coded gate to enter and exit the property and the grounds are lush with plant and animal life.
The rooms deserve updates in furnishings but are comfortable and clean.

The Green Iguana is a small quirky hotel with lots of character. The grounds are beautiful and full of critters. The proprietors Gwen and John are friendly, helpful and knowledgeable about the area. The view of the bay is nice. The Green Iguana goes out of it's way to be eco friendly. The hotel is close to a stairway that makes walking down the hill into town easy, though the climb back up the hill may be challenging for some.
