The Buccaneer

I think the review below by ChrisJ from October is a review for a different hotel. There is no French side on St. Croix, and the Buccaneer is unquestionably an outstanding resort hotel. His review has been the first review listed for quite some time so I wanted to suggest this review is not accurate.

We were turned away, after a long drive from the French side. For some reason, an oyster group was coming, we’re not sure what an oyster group was, even though there’s ample parking and it’s a full beach with nobody in an empty bar with nobody in the reyayrant. Don’t waste your time. Find a better reputable place to enjoy the day. Jesse needs to learn hospitality does not turn away five people. Again it’s not worth the drive to buccaneer go find a better place. Trust me there’s plenty.

The resort was an exceptional experience for our family. Every day we spent time lounging in the pool and snorkeling in the lagoon steps away from our bungalow. The staff across the resort provided exceptional welcoming hospitality and the food at the multiple restaurants was delicious. A special thanks to Kenny, the Golf Pro, who is a fun character and a seasoned professional. He went above and beyond welcoming us, getting us set up with the newest rental clubs and with tips on how to play this very authentic paradise course. Golfing on his manicured and picturesque island course will be a beautiful core memory for my 11 year old son.

From the seamless reservation process to the warm welcome at check-in, this hotel gets everything right. The staff are outstanding – friendly, professional, and always willing to go the extra mile. Special shoutouts to Alberga, Nadia, Phyllis, Delma, Kathleen, Doris, Francis, Marcia, Martina, Edith, Mayra, Allissa, Lea, Dion, and many others who made our stay extra special. The views at this resort are spectacular, the beaches are spotless and inviting, and the food is wonderful. The breakfast buffet alone is worth the trip! Every visit feels like coming home, and it truly never disappoints. Our absolute go-to destination and the best hotel experience we’ve ever had.

We can't say enough wonderful things about The Buccaneer and our entire trip! Everyone was so hospitable and wonderful to be around, and the beaches are amazing! The resort is very clean and sits on top of a beautiful cliff overlooking the water. Everything from golfing on the resort to our trip to Buck Island for snorkeling was pure joy. We can not wait to come back!!
