Having been caught in Tropical Storm Philippe on a sailboat, we found ourselves in need of a place to recuperate and get our travel plans back to the US reset. We had heard from friends that Maria's by the Sea was just the place we needed. Wow....the recommendations were dead on. We arrived soaked and tired and in need of comfortable rooms and some good food. The front desk team was professional, friendly and helpful beyond measure. When faced with a dilemma in getting our ”wet” money from working in the lobby vending machine, the manager said...”no worries”, and opened it up with her key and made sure we got what we needed. We were checked in quickly and found our rooms to be incredibly comfortable and well equipped with all we needed. Once we got rested and cleaned up, our group of 5 hearty travelers made our way downstairs to the waterfront bar and restaurant. The star of the show was Roy, our server, and now, friend. The service was stellar, the food magnificent in both presentation and flavor, and the overall experience helped wash away our discomfort from our storm experience. This gentleman is first class by any definition. We already had found the people in the British Virgin Islands to be incredibly friendly, helpful, kind and genuine. This final experience before we caught the ferry to St. Thomas and the plane ride home put a beautiful bow on this adventure. Thanks to you all!!
