Location
The Crane Resort is located on a stunning beach with breathtaking ocean views. The resort is secluded and offers a tropical paradise with lush plantings and scenic stone walkways. The architectural designs of the hotel are beautiful and offer fantastic views of the unspoilt coastline. Guests can enjoy the resort feel with pools, a variety of restaurants and shops, although finding restaurants and shops outside of the resort can be cumbersome. The location is close to the airport and convenient for travel but may require a taxi to explore other areas of the island. The small village nearby offers a few quaint shops and dining options. While the beach may not be suitable for families due to strong currents and no coastal maintenance, the cliff views of the ocean are unforgettable. Overall, guests rave about the superb location and spectacular cliff views of The Crane Resort.
Breakfast
The breakfast at The Crane Resort is a mix of positive and negative reviews according to guests. However, most guests praised the breakfast buffet, which offered an interesting variety of choices. The included breakfast was fresh and plentiful and there was a good selection of fruit, toast, tea and even an assortment of delicacies. And while some mentioned that the breakfast buffet was a bit sweaty or could use more choices, others described it as lovely and great. Some guests mentioned that the breakfast service was slow and there were long queues for toast, but the good staff more than made up for it. The rooms where breakfast was served had mixed reviews and were described as either beautiful with a stunning view or depressing. Unfortunately, a few guests mentioned that the breakfast was overpriced, disappointing and not good value for money.
Dinner
Guests at The Crane Resort have plenty of dining options to choose from with a wide variety of cuisine and cocktail choices available. The Italian and Zen restaurants in particular received positive reviews with guests describing the food as 'lovely', 'amazing' and 'very good'. However, some guests felt that certain meals were overpriced and underwhelming in taste. While some guests experienced difficulties with restaurant reservations and seating, the staff were described as friendly and welcoming across all dining options, including the poolside restaurant and Carriage House. Despite occasional faults or delays (such as a late afternoon wedding disrupting dinner reservations or a restaurant temporarily closed due to a kitchen issue), the dining experience at The Crane Resort is generally regarded as excellent with well-priced, delicious food and outstanding room service menus.
Rooms
The Crane Resort boasts stunning and spacious rooms with comfortable beds and beautiful views of the Caribbean setting. Some guests reported that certain buildings are dated and in need of modernizing, while others found the furnishings worn or the decor dreary. However, many reviews praised the cleanliness and spaciousness of the rooms, as well as the fully equipped kitchens and large bathrooms. Some suites come with private pools on the deck and there are all sorts of accommodations available, including two-bedroom suites. The staff at The Crane Resort are attentive and helpful and the pools and beach are lovely. However, some guests encountered issues with their rooms, such as broken pipes, unclean showers and unclean toilets and some reported poor service organization and communication from the hotel staff. Overall, The Crane Resort provides a luxurious Caribbean feel with wood accents, expansive scenery and a range of amenities, but some parts of the property may be outdated or deteriorating.

With sanitation stations and masks worn by staff at all times, hygiene is described as excellent.

Pool
The Crane Resort is a stunning hotel with beautiful grounds and excellent swimming pools. Guests enjoyed the outdoor pool, private pool and children's pool, as well as the pool on the roof with a fantastic ocean view. The pool areas were well organized and the staff was professional and well-trained. However, some guests noted that the pool areas needed more options for umbrellas and shade and the pool needed cleaning at times. Despite this, the general pool area and village feel are huge bonuses to this resort. Guests loved ordering drinks and food at the pool bar and some even mentioned that the historic pool was a sight to see. The only downside was the constant queue at reception due to the hotel being a COVID hotel and high guest turnover. Overall, The Crane Resort is an excellent choice for travelers looking for a spacious and well-organized recreational area with lovely pools.
Beach
The Crane Resort boasts an amazing beachfront with beautiful sand and plenty of sun loungers and umbrellas for guests to use. Although the seaweed can sometimes be an issue, it's not the fault of the resort and guests appreciate the effort put into clearing it. The beach is not necessarily swimmable for families due to strong currents, but the sound of the waves alone makes it worth a visit. The stunning ocean views are unforgettable and the location is of high quality. Elevator access is available for those who need it and the bar and cafe on the beach provide drinks and towels. Overall, the beach at The Crane Resort is a lovely area to lounge and enjoy the fantastic view.
