Perched high above Charlotte Amalie with sweeping views of the Caribbean Sea, Bluebeard’s Castle Resort offers a unique blend of island history, modern comfort, and authentic St. Thomas hospitality. But here’s what makes us truly special: our resort features three distinct areas, each with its own character and charm, so you can choose the experience that fits your style.

Whether you’re drawn to the tranquil, historic ambiance of Villas 3, the sleek, contemporary vibe and resort-center energy of Hilltop Villas, or the cottage-style comfort and waterfront serenity of Pirates Pension, you’ll find your perfect island retreat here.

Here’s a closer look at what makes each area unique. Discover where you belong at Bluebeard’s.

Villas 3: Tranquil, Historic & Full of Character

If you’re seeking a peaceful retreat steeped in island history, Villas 3 is calling your name.

This quieter side of Bluebeard’s Castle Resort offers diverse views—from Yacht Haven Grande and the island’s rolling hillsides to downtown Charlotte Amalie’s sparkling waterfront. But here’s the truly special part: select units are directly attached to the historic Bluebeard’s Castle itself, offering front-row courtyard views and a connection to centuries of island lore.

Imagine waking up in a space where history lives in the walls, where the ambiance is calm and contemplative, and where every view tells a story. Villas 3 is perfect for travelers who appreciate character, charm, and a slower pace—without sacrificing comfort or convenience.

Best for: Couples seeking romance, history buffs, guests who value peace and quiet, anyone looking for a more intimate island experience.

Hilltop Villas: Modern, Sleek & Right in the Action

If contemporary design and breathtaking vistas are your vibe, Hilltop Villas will take your breath away.

With sleek, city-inspired décor and water views from every unit, this area is ideal for guests who appreciate modern minimalist style and want to be in the heart of the resort buzz. Hilltop Villas are the closest to the pool, Sunnyside Bar, and Castle Grill, where nightly entertainment keeps the island energy alive.

Elevator access serves all rooms, and depending on your level, you may enjoy direct pool access - perfect for those spontaneous dips in the Caribbean sun. While the balconies are more intimate than other resort areas, they’re perfectly sized for sunning and alfresco dining, giving you a front-row seat to St. Thomas sunsets, endless Caribbean blue, and all the resort action.

Best for: Modern design lovers, social travelers, guests who want easy access to dining and entertainment, anyone who wants to be where the energy is.

Pirates Pension: Cottage Charm Meets Waterfront Tranquility

Step into the charm of Pirates Pension, where traditional island décor meets cottage-style comfort and waterfront views.

This area features four villa buildings, each with seven units across multiple levels (note: stairs only, no elevators). Many units come equipped with full kitchens—complete with eat-in and formal dining options—plus conveniences like in-unit washers, dryers, and dishwashers.

Nestled closer to the water, Pirates Pension offers prime views of the marina, where you can watch boats and ships glide in and out throughout the day. It’s the perfect blend of home-away-from-home functionality and waterfront tranquility—ideal for families, longer stays, or anyone who loves the rhythm of island life by the water.

Best for: Families, groups, extended stays, guests who want full kitchen amenities, anyone who loves marina views and a home-like atmosphere.
