My Husband and I just returned from a vacation to St. Croix. I had to write this review right away because the hotel and, the staff were fantastic!!! We have been to Christiansted several times and, have stayed in a different hotel. When we arrived in St, Croix we checked into the original hotel went to our room and, immediately checked out. I had very little time and called several other hotels on the island but, when I called the Hotel Caravelle I spoke to a woman who identified herself as Dahlia. She was very professional and, I felt comfortable immediatiately when I spoke to her. My husband and I were right up the street and proceeded to walk to the Hotel Caravelle. When we arrived I looked at several rooms with a man named Akeem. He was just super nice. Well, we settled into our room which faced the street. Not my favorite room ever but, o.k. The next day I did go to the office downstairs and, spoke to a woman named Zuly who is one of the sweetest people I have ever met. I expressed a few concerns about our room. Later on in the day I had the pleasure to meet Miss Hillary. She let me know that she had another oceanview room available and, wanted to show it to me. Needless to say this room was much nicer and my husband and I moved immediately. It had a view of the swimming pool as well as the harbor and, boardwalk. This completely changed my opinion of the hotel since my concerns were addressed very quickly. The next day I also had the pleasure to meet Miss Elsie. Miss Elsie gave me the sense that I was with family. This is a big thing since I have almost no family at all.
To sum things up I highly recommend the Hotel Caravelle to anyone visiting Christansted. It is a budget friendly hotel with a beautiful swimming pool. You cannot get closer to the water, restaurants, the boardwalk, and shopping. It is safe along with having a human being in the office from early in the day to late at night. You will not find this on any other properties. Spend alittle extra money and, get an oceanview room. It is worth it.
In closing I would like to send a big thank you to Miss Elsie and, Miss Hillary. Both of you went above and beyond to accommodate my husband and I. You truly made our vacation worth returning to Christansted and, the Hotel Caravelle. This goes for the rest of the staff also. We cannot wait to return and see everyone again. Peace, Light, and Love.
Room Tip: Request an oceanview room.
