"The hotel sits in a strategical area both for enjoyment beaches/water sports and good food. We enjoyed our stay here. Friendly staff and lovely seafront location!"

"Airport shuttle would have been a great plus. For a high rated hotel I expect brewed coffee and not the instant that was served!"

"Great beach."

"This place is amazing and a true gem. Not only is the architecture impressive but the way it blends with the sea is perfection. The Crane has a small town feel to it; you don’t have to leave the property for dinner, shopping, drinks or music."

"I was impressed by this beautiful, brand-new hotel located on the south of the island. The location couldn’t be better — just a short bus ride to Carlisle Bay, close to some great restaurants, and within walking distance of Rockley Beach. The atmosphere of the hotel is modern and elegant, but what truly sets it apart is the team. Every staff member I encountered went above and beyond — special thanks to Mario, Kenny, Remario, Troy, Safiyah (the wonderful floor manager), and Chef Andy. Their friendliness and attention to detail made my stay feel personal and welcoming. The food here is very good and I particularly loved the poolside restaurant with its pink motif — a beautiful touch right down to the design of the glassware. The "just in time" cocktails were another highlight. Breakfast was fantastic with plenty of variety, from the omelette station to the bakery section, though I do wish there were an option to book breakfast for one person. Both the ground-floor and rooftop pools are gorgeous, offering spectacular views, especially during sunset. They’re the perfect spots to unwind after a day exploring the island. The hospitality I experienced here truly made my trip memorable. My only recommendation would be to improve the check-in process — relying less on self check-in and introducing a more streamlined reception experience would make arrivals smoother, especially during busy times. I hope I get to return one day. "
