This was the absolute best vacation of our lives!! Carambola was beautiful, quiet and secluded just what we were looking for. Our room was not renovated but it was clean. We had a second floor room & with a beach view from our screened in porch. The beach was clean and quiet. The view was fabulous. The breakfasts were good,... more

My husband and I stayed at Carambola Beach Resort from July 10-July 13, 2008. I'd read all the reviews over and over before leaving for our trip and I was pretty nervous. While many of the reviews talk about the beauty, it sounded like the upkeep and hotel management were seriously lacking. We braced ourselves for a mediocre stay. To... more

We stayed 5 nights and found a number of reasons to love the place and a few to consider staying elsewhere. Non-renovated room was fine for us. Some maintenance was needed during our stay (toilet handle, safe lock, shower handle), but overall, if you are here for the beach, sun and fun, you are only in the room to sleep... more

This hotel was the perfect spot for our honeymoon. Located on a very secluded spot on the island. There is no cell phone service, which was again perfect for us. The grounds were beautiful and staff was extremley friendly. We visited other resorts on the island and by far loved ours the best. We had an ocean front suite which... more

My boyfriend and I went during the week of Christmas and had a very relaxing time. The resort is stunning and the staff was excellent. If you're looking for nightlife, this is not the place to go. There are only 2 places to eat in the resort, the bar or the other restaurant that is very pricey. The bar food... more

I stayed at the Carambola June 18-23 and the trip was wonderful thanks to Carambola! I can't stop raving about it. Gloria at the spa is an excellent masseuse and will take good care of you. The food is good and while I was there the service was quick and excellent . Great veggie burger! The Friday night buffet is... more

We just returned from our trip from St. Croix after staying at the Carambola Beach Resort from June 14-19, 2008. This hotel is absolutely beautiful,with lush tropical landscaping! We did not have an updated room, but very happy with our 2nd floor beachfront room. The food at the resort was superb, although the menu is somewhat limited. Staff was very... more

My fiance and I stayed at the Carambola Beach Resort for seven nights in one of the non-upgraded garden view suites. It was beautiful! We requested a room on the second floor, and it had 20' high mahogany ceilings. To say that the room was "garden view" is questionable; the ocean was approximately 50' from our balcony and clearly visible.... more

Be sure to read between the lines. I also try to allow for a few disgruntled reviews, but when I returned and read all reviews, I found there are too many consistent areas of concern. Beautiful area, but do not expect typical resort attention. If you can handle rude uninformed staff and isolation from other activities, go. First problem was... more
