The Buccaneer Beach & Golf Resort

Our room was great, first floor next to the main building, with beautiful views of the ocean. The resort was fairly quiet but there was construction and maintenance going on throughout the resort to keep it in up to date condition--nothing that bothered us but the second (lap) pool was closed during our stay. The location was great on two beaches (Mermaid and Grotto) and a five minute walk along the golf course to a third (Whistle) beach. While we were there in November, it wasn't very crowded, lots of available lounge chairs and towels. We snorkeled off Mermaid and Whistle beach (there are no facilities or staff at Whistle beach so you need to carry your towels, etc there). Snorkel equipment and kayaks were available at Mermaid beach. Once you check out snorkel gear you can keep them for your entire stay, which is very convenient. We also used the ping pong table and the tennis court facility. The welcoming party was very nice and gave us a chance to meet the owner of the resort. The rooms were kept very clean as were all the other facilities on the resort. The atmosphere was very welcoming and relaxed. We ate at the Terrance and Beauregard and their service was very prompt. The Beauregard has a fairly limited menu (tacos and sushi) but the food was very good. We really appreciated having laundry facilities on the property. I would recommend having a rental car because you might want to drive down to the beach if you are taking equipment with you. Also Christensted is a short 10-15 min drive away as well as Udall Point (eastern most US point). The bars on the resort also close down rather early so if you are looking for night life you'll need to go into town. Next time we go to St Croix we will be sure to stay at the Buccaneer.

I think the review below by ChrisJ from October is a review for a different hotel. There is no French side on St. Croix, and the Buccaneer is unquestionably an outstanding resort hotel. His review has been the first review listed for quite some time so I wanted to suggest this review is not accurate.

It was a very nice hotel, however, I did have some bugs show up in the room. At the price point, I was not expecting it, but in general, it was a very nice place, and I enjoyed the stay.

We were turned away, after a long drive from the French side. For some reason, an oyster group was coming, we’re not sure what an oyster group was, even though there’s ample parking and it’s a full beach with nobody in an empty bar with nobody in the reyayrant. Don’t waste your time. Find a better reputable place to enjoy the day. Jesse needs to learn hospitality does not turn away five people. Again it’s not worth the drive to buccaneer go find a better place. Trust me there’s plenty.

Absolutely beautiful but the food was severely overpriced!

Ocean view was great.

Gorgeous beaches and views. The staff is beyond amazing! Locally owned and you can see all the attention to every detail. Truly a wonderland!

Everything on the resort was absolutely amazing. All of the dining was extremely expensive; we had no other options because we had to take a taxi into town for other food options. If I would have known this I would have stayed closer or on St Croix and not on a resort that takes 20 minutes to get to all civilization.

Beautiful views in every direction, amazing beaches, and delicious dining. The staff are wonderful.
