I write this review as I decide where we will go this fall for our annual tropical getaway. Caneel will not get our business this year, or again, until Rosewood either adjusts prices at this hotel in accordance with the quality of the property, or adresses the management deficiencies which have eroded the quality of this beautiful property over the... more

This trip was a last minute birthday celebration and i have to admit that the excitement level was up there before we even arrived at caneel bay. There is something about stealing away for a few days at the last minute.....i was so thrilled to go i probably would have been happy in a hut on a beach, any beach... more

Caneel Bay was an amazing experience. For a person who is just beginning to travel, it seems hard to believe that I could top this vacation. Things that I loved... ~7 Beaches!! The beaches were pristine, secluded, and wonderfully warm between the toes! ~Great first-time ever snorkeling experience. The water is calm and very salty. You are so buoyant you... more

Well, thanks to all the folks who contribute to TripAdvisor as I find it a wealth of helpful information. So in the spirit of giving something back, I'm relating my experience on my recent stay. I also want to paint a little picture about what I was looking for in a vacation spot so you can know if you might... more

There seems to be a little controversy when people review this resort. Just coming back from my honeymoon, I'll tell you what I know. 1. It is expensive. But most nice things ARE expensive. Is it worth it? In my opinion, YES. You want to drive a BMW, you have to PAY BMW prices. You can find more affordable options... more

We stayed at Caneel July 2007 for our honeymoon. St. John is beautiful so we wanted to marry on Trunk Bay. The resort said they would have someone pick me up at our room and take me to my driver for the wedding (cars cannot come close to the rooms so resort golf carts must do the work). Ten minutes... more

Caneel Bay has a "sense of place." It has a 50+ year history of hospitality and laid-back grace. SImilar to another original Rock Resort, Mauna Kea, Caneel Bay is not the fanciest, most modern resort. What it is is an old-school resort that makes the grounds, beaches, and animals the main attraction. The ground are beautiful. There are small plaques... more

My wife and I spent 5 nights at Caneel Bay, first timers. We were a bit concerned because of some of the bad reviews here, but went on intrepidly anyway. In retrospect, we decided that people's bad experiences were due to 3 facts: (1) This is in a National Park. There are bugs and wild animals around. They're supposed to... more

What more can one say about a hotel with beautiful beaches and incredible service. From the moment one steps off the plane in Thomas the time you leave the island, complete with a wave from the dock from the staff you will be catered to and pampered by the friendly staff. We went on the off season and got an... more

I read the reviews before the trip and was a bit concerned about the "bungalow" experience. I have been used to the big entrance marble floor type accomidations. We arrived from a short ferry ride to a warm welcome and special attention to our room. The grounds have rolling hills and spread out, but shuttles are readily available to take... more
