Cruz Bay Boutique Hotel

Cruz Bay Boutique Hotel

8/10 Good
"To be honest, this was my first time ever going to St. John’s, so I was expecting a lot more than what I experienced. I have family that lives in Hawaii so I’ve been to Hawaii plenty of times I’ve been in resorts that were absolutely beautiful and I was kind of expecting the same when I got the St. John’s, but to my surprise that was not the case. The beaches in St. John were absolutely beautiful probably some of the best that I’ve ever been to in my 60 years, but the town itself to me is in shambles. I felt like I was visiting some Third World country. The cruise Bay Hotel definitely served us right. The staff was wonderful and the amenities were awesome , our room was very clean…. I was just expecting a town with beautiful resorts and awesome restaurants and that wasn’t the case … we still had a great time, just wasn’t what we were expecting when it came to appearance and upkeep…. I’m just being honest, not trying to make anyone upset"
