Airport to Emerald Beach Resort

Emerald Beach Resort sits directly on Lindbergh Bay, so close to Cyril E. King Airport that guests sometimes watch their own plane land from the beach. This is the shortest resort transfer we run. Your driver meets you at the designated passenger pickup area, loads the luggage, and has you at the front desk within minutes of leaving the curb. There is no cross island drive to plan around and no traffic math to do, which makes Emerald Beach a favorite for one night stays, early departures, and travelers who want the water immediately. The ride is quoted when you book, and short runs like this one are priced accordingly.

The ride

The route from Cyril E. King follows the south side of the island, along the harbor and past Havensight, and the last stretch is short. Downtown Charlotte Amalie sets the pace on busy cruise days, and we plan for it.

The black GMC Yukon XL Denali comfortably fits four guests with a full set of checked and carry on bags. Larger parties move to the air conditioned executive van so the whole group rides together.

Every ride includes a live flight watch, a meet and greet at the designated passenger pickup area just outside baggage claim with your name on a sign, help with luggage, bottled water in the vehicle, and a direct arrival at Emerald Beach. We do not stack strangers into shared vans. Your reservation is private the whole way. For the wider picture of the roads and the island, see our guide to getting around St. Thomas.

The rate

The ride to Emerald Beach is quoted when you book, based on the exact address, the party size, and the time of day. You get a straight number before you commit, never a range, and the rate is confirmed in writing along with your pickup plan.

Rates include luggage. Gratuities and any resort fees are separate. Return transfers back to the airport are quoted at the same tier. The full rate table lives with our full airport transfer service, and if your plans reach beyond a single transfer, text or call to plan a ride.
