The 10 Best Things to do Good for a Rainy Day in St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands
Like all of the U.S. Virgin Islands, St. Thomas has plenty of opportunities to lounge on the beach, splash in the sea, or amp it up with watersports. It also boasts a bountiful duty-free shopping scene – just be prepared to brave the cruise ship crowds. Charlotte Amalie swells with Danish colonial architecture and pirate legend. Shiver ye timbers at Blackbeard’s Castle, then work up an appetite by climbing the historic 99 Steps, constructed from the ballast bricks of 18th century Danish ships.

We discovered Ajanta Jewelers several years ago while in St. Thomas. The store is indeed a jewel, full of sparkle and shine all beautifully displayed. We returned this month to make a purchase and to see about having some inherited pieces restyled. Handsome Harry and his team are very knowledgeable and made us feel so welcome. We enjoyed working with Harry to come up with just the right pieces. His creative input was extremely helpful in our decision-making process, and we couldn't be more pleased with our new jewelry. In the sea of St. Thomas jewelry stores, Ajanta Jewelers is a true standout and has us as loyal clients for life.

If you are looking for an incredible jewelry buying experience in St Thomas, than you must make sure you give Grand Jewelers and Navin an opportunity to earn your business. Like most people making a substantial purchase, it serves us well to do some prior research. I did just that before arriving in St Thomas. We went to two other highly rated Jewelry stores on St Thomas, in addition to Grand Jewelers. The other stores were very professional and appeared fair in their prices. However, our experience with Navin at Grand Jewelers was far more than just a jewelry shopping experience.. Navin was extremely patient with us and very straight forward in spending hours pulling out inventory for us to consider and sharing the related pricing options.At no time were we ever pressured into buying! It took three trips, before my future fiancé could finally decide on the setting and diamond! Navin was so exceptional in providing us with a first class 3.5 carat diamond ring at a very competitive price. The best thing that came out of this buying experience is that I met Navin, an outstanding person. He is a class act and so professional and knowledgeable in his field. We ended up also purchasing diamond ear rings, as an early Christmas present. There are so many Jewelry Store choices in St Thomas. I would however suggest you make it your mission to meet Navin and give him a shot at earning your trust and business. I know he will treat you fairly, without any pressure to buy a single item.

While shopping in Charlotte Amalie, on a recent vacation, we were inundated with people, outside of their stores, trying to coax us in. It was a lot. I love buying jewelry while on vacation- it’s kind of my thing, but this was a little overwhelming! On this trip, my focus was diamond stud earrings. We had been succumbed to the harassment of numerous sales people (outside of the jewelry stores) and our eyes were glazed over from looking at so many diamonds and information and price tags. I had, pretty much, resigned to the fact that my ears were not going to find new diamonds on this trip. And then, I remembered a store that we had stopped into, a few days earlier (my husband was on the hunt for an authentic coins from a pirated ship- which Beverly’s also has), where we met two, very nice and helpful gentleman. My husband and I both decided it was worth one last try. I mean, there is jewelry everywhere in this city, however, none of it felt right- we felt like we were being pressured and “sold” on pieces that were not exactly what I was looking for. Exhausted, we went back to Beverly’s and found our guys. Ronnie is wonderful and helped me find the perfect diamond and offered to buy another one, similar quality, clarity and size to make me my perfect pair...and perfect they are! We had to head back to Minnesota, so he took a small deposit and called me when my other diamond came in. He sent photos and stayed in communication the entire time. I paid the balance, over the phone, and he sent the beauties to my home. I just received them and could not be happier. These gentlemen are honest, fair, so awesome to deal with. You will not feel pressured and, if they do not have what you want- they will get it for you. My earrings are perfect, I saved a bunch of money, vs buying locally, and Ronnie is my new go-to for all of my jewelry. Save yourself a lot of time, while on vacation, and go straight to Beverly’s.
