About the Hotel
Pirates used to be a major concern for The Buccaneer – in the 17th Century, the great house had to be hidden in thick vegetation far from the eyes of roving marauders. A Danish baron turned it into a sugar mill in the 1700s, and in 1947 the Armstrong family opened small hotel where guests – called “continentals” – would make their own drinks and help rake the beach. In the years that followed, Lauren Bacall, Michael Jackson and Johnny Carson all graced the hotel register. Recall The Buccaneer’s colorful past with bright, traditionally appointed guestrooms and a bar menu of classic cocktails – Cruzan Confusion, anyone?

Reviews for The Buccaneer
Fabulous vacation spot!
The Buccaneer has become our special getaway. I participate in the annual Coral Reef Swim with the finish line at the Buccaneer. The convenience and support from the resort is incredible. The owner, Elizabeth, started the race 28 years ago and participates, along with her husband, provides much guidance for this event. My non swimmer husband came with my friends and me and fell in love with the Buccaneer. He played the course while we swam every morning minutes from our room. We are planning on 3rd visit and already counting the days!

Buccaneer saved our anniversary trip. Amazing property, amenities and world class staff
Amazing place to stay. Went to St Croix for our 20th anniversary & were booked at another resort (a disaster and a dump- don’t stay at the Carambola) We called from that resort & the Buccaneer staff went above & beyond to get us a wonderful room and even upgraded us to the honeymoon suite. The owner gave us a sweet note and bottle of champagne. That level of service was exhibited by everyone on staff. They took what was going to be a disaster and turned it into a memorable, romantic getaway. Gorgeous property, wonderful amenities & friendly courteous staff. We would definitely return.

Deceptive reviews: not what I expected
Customer service great in some areas Mr one in other. Facilities are unkempt. Two days in row, there was leftover food on beach that attendants ignored, while regulating seating. No one removed debris from beachfront. Facilities old, not worth the cost.

Beautiful Property with Great Service
The resort is beautiful, and the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The rooms were nice and very clean. The pool area and beaches were lovely and comfortable. the food at the restaurants was good, but the choices were somewhat limited. The views were gorgeous!

Expensive
How can anyone enjoy the beach and food at the Mermaid Restaurant when we have to pay $35 for each lounge chair. I am already purchasing food which is not cheap to them pay an outrageous fee just ti sit at the beach. If you have to charge consider $10-$15.

The Buccaneer in St. Croix was a place of casual elegance. We had an excellent waterfront room. The courteous staff sought to ensure our every need was met. The food was wonderful and the views are breathtaking.
