“Our Honeymoon”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 17, 2012

Beautiful Resort for our Honeymoon. We spent 8 glorious days and it was fabulous. Thank you "KC" for making us feel welcome. Sarah, the reservationist was wonderful and so friendly. Thank you to Esmerelda for handling our reservations for everything we wanted to do. The massage on the beach was so relaxing.
Chris and Curt could not have been better bartenders and so friendly. We had a great time with them. Marlon....wow... so outgoing and fun.
We enjoyed every moment at your resort and could not have chosen a better honeymoon spot.
Our room view was breathtaking. The staff was wonderful.... The snorkeling was great and the coral reef was fantastic, especially to someone like me who had never snorkeled before.
Thank you again for a most memorable honeymoon and we cannot wait to return.
Kathy and Steve McKee

Everyone here gets a kick outta’ Newlyweds, and each staff member mentioned recalls the two of you with huge smiles on their faces!

We’re simply thrilled that you had a memorable stay while on St. Croix and we were happy to have been your host, thank you once again for acknowledging those members of our staff that stood-out, and we look forward to celebrating the 1st year Anniversary!

“OHIO”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 17, 2012

My mom, sister and I stayed here in the middle of oct. We had a great time! Everyone was REALLY NICE!! Sean was a Fabulous snorkel guide and is up for any outdoor activities. Scott was the Best bartender. He is a golfer too, so if you want to golf. (talk to Scott) Joy was very Helpful at the front desk.( Any questions ask her) We felt like it was our own private resort. We were there before the busy season. If you want busy and lots of people don't go when we went. The friendly atmosphere with the small amount of people was unbeatable tho. Would go back :)

Room Tip: we had ocean front 303 i think

“Wonderful!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 12, 2012

My husband and I just spent a week there for our five year anniversary and belated honeymoon, it was Wonderful! The staff was so friendly and helpful and really made our stay excellent. The room was great, food amazing and the beach beautiful. I can't say enough nice things about the staff, David, Rasheem and Celina were so fun to hang out with at the pizza place plus made some of the best pizza and drinks. David had some great advice of places to visit on the island and even took the time to get us a better map and marked the places. Rasheem always had a smile and has one of the best laughs I have heard, he made me always feel so happy and I ended up laughing till my sides hurt! Celina made amazing food and would stop to talk also and share some places or a funny story. Scott, Curt and Krys took great care of us also and would remember what we were drinking and took the time to answer all of our questions about the island, funny stories and great conversations. Everytime we passed any of the staff members they always had a smile, said hello and asked if we needed anything. Your manager EC was great! She was always walking around, talking to guest asking if she could help and took the time not only to get to know everyone but also share a laugh. We did take some time at the casino and this would be my only place for improvement, we found the staff at the cafe to be rude and in need of some better service training. The rest of the casino staff was polite, it was really just limited to the cafe. Thank you so much for a wonderful trip.

“Beautiful tropical paradise in need of some TLC”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed November 10, 2012 via mobile

Beautiful location. Buck Island is a must. It was by far the best snorkeling my husband and I have ever experienced. The onsite dive shop also offered transportation across the island to go dive the wall. It is a haul but the dive will be worth the drive. The furnishings are a bit dated but the room was comfortable with a balcony overlooking the beach. The resort is in need of repair. There is peeling paint and crumbling dry wall in many locations. Also closed bars and hot tubs. There are only a couple dining options at the resort so you may find yourself getting tired of the menu offerings. There were not many guests there and we were wondering how long the resort could continue to operate. If you want a first rate all inclusive head to St. Lucia or Jamacia

Having reviewed your commentary on your stay with us during the month of July, we’d like to take this opportunity to thank you for notifying us of your observations four months later. As a resort dedicated to providing superior customer service we are continually striving to best serve our customers. When our efforts fail to meet expectations, it is important that the
matter to be brought to our attention so that it can be corrected as soon as possible.

This is the first opportunity that we’ve had, to hear of the issues that you faced while staying with us, and it’s unusual that for such severe conditions faced, that it wasn’t brought to our attention immediately. As you can tell from the wide range of reviews made during and after your stay that things have seemingly picked-up tremendously; but we nonetheless thank you for your observations.

We apologize for the inconvenience and frustration that you experienced while with us. Customer service is the most important issue that we in the Hospitality Industry are faced with, and one that we try to tackle to be best of our ability each day, and despite not being pleased with our resort, we do hope that the remainder of your stay on island was pleasant enough and that you’d consider returning to St. Croix in the near future.

“The worst vacation we had, ever.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed November 10, 2012

Stay away from this Resort. My wife and I was there in August. For an all inclusive, no variety in the food. The same old after 1 nite. Same as Breakfast and Lunch. Some of the staff have a serious attitude problem. The beach was very small and the water was not the best we had ever swim in. The bright spot is Chris the bar tender and even she couldn't get me drunk enough to forget all the money we spent. The best is when we went into the town of Christiansted. There is a little food and bar right on the ocean and the food and drinks was way better then the Divi. The folks in town are very friendly. My recommendation is to stay somewhere else.

We look forward to and appreciate all commentary submitted to Trip Advisor. The glowing remarks rendered on our bartender, Kris and will be passed along to them accordingly.

After having read your commentary, we realize that you experienced a less than pleasant meal experience for which we apologize. However, we’re sorely puzzled as to not having received any complaint from you during your stay, regarding food service and variety.
…as an All-Inclusive property, we are well aware that foodservice is an element of the industry that can’t be ignored. We are constantly changing our menu selections in all outlets, to provide our clientele with a variety of choices within the outlets.
Catering to a predominately American audience, it’s expected to provide food items reflective to such, which is why just about every restaurant on island offers Caribbean, Continental and International cuisines. After sampling the local Island Cuisine, many look forward to items they’re familiar with such as Hamburgers, Hotdogs, Philly Cheese Steak or any other “comfort food”.
We possess four dining outlets, with the Starlite Grille serving breakfast daily, Dockside Café (adjacent to the pool and beach) is also open 7 days a week, serving Lunch and Dinner while East End Pizza is open five nights a week. There’s also the Carina Café located at the Carina Bay Casino that’s also a popular spot to cure the late night munchies, and is open Sunday-Thursday from 10am to 4am and is also open 24 hours on Friday and Saturday. We’ve themed night dinners at the Starlite including Lobster Fridays Rok dining, Meet the Cooks, Italian Night and the Mexican Buffet.
In closing, we are constantly attempting to improve ourselves, to meet the goal of providing a Memorable Guest Experience for each of clients. In perusing many of the recent reviews on this site during the selfsame time of your stay, it’s obvious that we’re happy to say our efforts are coming to fruition.
We do thank you for having selected our resort and the island of St. Croix, and hope that you’d consider visiting the island once again.
