A variety of different recreational pursuits isn't necessarily a requirement for all travelers. While some travelers would rather stay at a hotel that offers non-stop recreational action, others are perfectly happy with very limited active recreational options, because all they really care about is having a comfortable, relaxing place to stay. Although it doesn't offer an extensive array of active recreational amenities the Island Beachcomber Hotel may have what you want.

Water and Fitness

Thanks to the hotel's proximity to the sea the absence of a swimming pool on the hotel property isn't a major concern to most hotel patrons, who spend their time lounging on the beach, rather than at the pool. And, even if there is a pool on the hotel property a lot of vacationers find so much else to do they swim very little in a pool during their stay in the Virgin Islands.

Tennis

Tennis courts aren't provided by this hotel, so if tennis is important to you, this may not be the ideal hotel. The lack of tennis courts doesn't concern most guests, since there are plenty of other activities available.

Carambola Beach Resort and Westin Resort, St. John are excellent hotels for tennis that you may also want to consider. These hotels have some of the best tennis amenities in the area, so it may be wise to consider their features in comparison with those of this hotel before making your choice.

Golf

Although the Island Beachcomber Hotel doesn't have its own course, if the idea of playing a round of golf in a tropical setting is appealing, the hotel can help you reserve a tee time at a nearby course.
