We have been coming to the Inn at Tamarind Court since 1991 and we have stayed in the same room during the Christmas holidays for the last 15 years. Our children and their family have also joined us there on ocassion. Our only requirements are a clean room with ensuite bath with hot and cold water. We are out of... More

Granted I was a solo traveler with a shared bathroom and twin size bed, but to pay $75 a night anywhere on St. John during high season is unheard of. I stayed for 4 nights and my experience at Tamarind was great. It’s a pretty unique place with a cozy and completely unpretentious vibe. And the location is top notch.... More

Basic room, but comfortable and clean; good location close to restaurants and ferry; friendly people; excellent dinner food by a variety of guest chefs. This hotel was one of the cheapest that we could find on St.John.

I laugh at all the negative reviews here. If you don't understand St. John, you are better suited to stay at the Westin. If you want a true island experience, with a central location for everything - the Tamarind Inn is for you. We stay here each year before our sailing charter. The staff is what really makes the experience.... More

For $75, you will get a room half of which is occupied by a bed that is too short. You will also have a tv (if that's what you are going there for). Walls are made of paper, you will hear everything you don't want to. For $130, you get a spacious room with a double bed, but the toilet... More

The 4 star reviews of this place must be from friends of the owners. Pretty dumpy for that price. Worth about 40.00/night maximum. Old broken fixtures, shower weak and leaked through the wall into the bedroom. Continental breakfast consisted of a bisquet and a piece of fruit. No dead bolt on our room door. Door frame had obviously been kicked... More

I stayed 3 nights at the Tamarind Ct. and just loved it. It wasn't your standard fulffy stuffy expensive hotel. It was down home and casual (just my style!). I never felt like a tourist but more like I was visiting friends. They had gear to borrow such as coolers, snorkels and play toys for the beach. The location was... More

Great food, Great Bar, Nice people. The Rooms & Grounds are pretty funky but the A/C worked and the shower was hot. Everything in St John is expensive and this is relatively affordable but still not cheap. It was fine for us and the bar was a cool local hangout that we enjoyed. You will get a real taste of...

I would recommend the Tamarind to anyone who wants to experience the local flavor of St. John! If you are looking to stay in town this would be the place. The rates are very reasonable and everything is within walking distance. The food is also fantastic! We ate breakfast there everyday and dinner twice! The staff at the Tamarind are... More
