Great views, super water, great snorkling, no drunk teenagers, quiet, plenty to do, eat downtown cheap or 4-5 stars or eat on the property. I've been around the world and Caneel Bay can't be beat. Maybe some place is as good, but for a beautiful, relaxing vactaion - go there. Second time was better than first - we are going back again this summer!

We have stayed at this resort about six times and always love it. We have stayed an equal number of times in other locations in the Caribbean and we always compare it to Caneel. It is a place to become physically reborn. The beaches are spectacular, food is great; you will fall in love. It's pricey but so is anything good in the Caribbean and most places don't compare beach wise. This is a place for people that like to commune with nature. Private dinners in the wine cellar are worthwhile and Albert's wine tasting program is most enlightening. It's ten minutes by cab into town so you aren't locked in at the resort. Rent a car for a day and drive along the north shore to see beautiful beaches. Drive to Coral Bay and have a great burger or fish sandwich at Skinny Legs and soak in the local flavor. The snorkeling at Caneel as well as the beaches are both wonderful.

Our stay at Caneel Bay exceeded our expectations. It is the most stunning place in the world. We cannot wait to return.

We LOVE St. John. Caneel Bay definitely is the definition of solitude. The room was very nice. The local people are VERY rude though. But the beaches are beautiful and the island laid back. The rooms don't have TV's (take your own DVD player!) And not much in the way of ""beach service"". Sometimes we could get a drink if it was the right time of day. Food is very expensive on St. John. The best restaurant we found was Zozo's in town. And definitely don't miss a trip to Woody's!!!
