The largest hotel complex in the U.S. Virgin Islands, Frenchman’s Reef & Morning Star Marriott Beach Resort claims a prime promontory on the isle of St. Thomas. It boasts a quarter mile of secluded beach on one side and elevated views of Charlotte Amalie’s deep-water harbor on the other. The 470 accommodations of various sizes and levels of luxury, six restaurants and bars, three pools, beach, and 15 meeting rooms make it a popular choice for combining business with pleasure in the Caribbean.
Meeting planners staging large corporate affairs favor the Grand Harbour Ballroom, a venue designed to seat up to 1,200 participants in its largest configuration. A dozen other rooms cater to smaller events, while outdoor venues—including nine terraces—entertain with picture-postcard views of the harbor, beach, and Caribbean Sea. Professional conference and events managers coordinate every detail, from speakers and entertainment to the support of in-house catering and audiovisual departments.
Group food-and-beverage options range from Continental and full breakfasts to elegant reception displays, plated island-style banquets, and clambakes at the beach. The options for restaurant meals range from casual fare at Coco Joe’s and Aqua Terra Oceanfront Grill to experiential fine dining at Havana Blue.
Serving an equally wide range of interests, the long list of recreational attractions kicks off with Lazule Sea Spa & Fitness Center—rivaled only by beach time, ocean sports, and golf at nearby Megans Bay.
