Public Notice - VIPA Contractor to Resume Island Beachcomber Hotel Demolition

The Virgin Islands Port Authority advises the public that its contractor will resume demolition of the former Island Beachcomber Hotel on Monday, May 12, 2025.  DCM Corporation will demolish the former hotel located at 70-T and 70-U Lindberg Bay, St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands. Work will be conducted daily from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. until the project is completed, which is anticipated to take 45 days.

The demolition site will be secured. However, VIPA advises the community to exercise caution when traversing the area while work is being conducted. The Authority also apologizes in advance for any inconvenience caused as it works to improve its properties.

The former hotel consists of ten buildings and has been vacant since 2018. It has also suffered damage from several fires. The empty structures pose a safety hazard and detract from the appearance of the beachfront property.  The demolition, which was originally scheduled to start in March, was paused by VIPA in consideration of nearby hotel properties during peak tourist season.
