Unique boutique hotel right on the ocean with waves crashing outside. Room has a kitchen with refrigerator and small stove. It is a ten minute walk to Cane Bay beach, which is beautiful. Very nice restaurant at hotel for dinner $ and a couple restaurants by the beach. Only breakfast option is a food truck by the beach on days with a T or S. Closes at noon. You need a car to get to other places or taxi. Not close to stores or the cities, about a half an hour.

Do you want a magical and mystical Caribbean experience? Then this is your place to stay! I have been traveling the Caribbean islands for over 20 years, being the Explorer that I am, my motto is "Never the same island twice". I have never stayed in such a relaxing, beautiful, and peaceful place before. (This place could convince me otherwise). The Waves literally sits right on the water's edge. Walking into my room just blew me away! The Sea was right there, waves crashing right below me! Sitting on the comfortable porch was like being on a boat. I love small venues without the big resort hype and noise. If you seek the same, you will also be excited to stay there. The beautiful Cane Bay Beach is out your front door. The restaurant AMA was a unique experience too. Sitting right on the grotto with the waves crashing up to the restaurant. The food was delicious, the wine and drink selection were extensive, and the staff were so welcoming and friendly. They are always crowded as people (including locals) from around the island go there for dinner, so be sure to make a reservation. The website's pictures are consistent with the bohemian feel of the room. The staff were always helpful. Room 4 is fabulous! A large corner unit with surrounding windows. Note: There is not an elevator, so if you are on the second floor you have to carry your luggage up the stairs. I was fortunate because when I arrived, Tom w/Maintenance, carried them up for me.

We stayed at the Waves at Cane Bay for our honeymoon in October and had an absolutely amazing time! Our room was spacious and beautifully decorated, and the view of the ocean from our balcony was absolutely gorgeous. We loved being able to walk to Cane Bay beach every day and visit the beach restaurants. We also had a delicious dinner at AMA which is located at the Waves at Cane Bay. Staff members were friendly and easy to work with, and we enjoyed the quiet and relaxing atmosphere. You will need a rental car to reach the hotel from the airport and to travel to Frederiksted and Christiansted, but there is parking available in a small gravel lot near the hotel. If you would like to save money by cooking some meals, the stovetop kitchenette is easy to use. Overall, it was a fantastic experience and I will definitely recommend staying at the Waves at Cane Bay!

Roaches, roaches and roaches!! Rooms are spit-cleaned, and when you request areas to be cleaned you are ignored. Can't use the patio to enjoy the amenities or the ocean view because its scolding hot and very humid 24/7, even at 2am! Its like sticking your head in a hot oven. There is a small patch of dirt and a small area with gravel for parking a total of 6 cars but from 5p till 10pm it is occupied by customers going to the bar next door. The gravel area is also a construction zone and has lot of scr ews on the ground. There is no phone in the room. I never saw front desk except at check-in, but supposedly they are there till 4pm. It is far from everything you want to see and do on the island. There is no cable TV only APPS. They have roaches!!!

The property had a beautiful view of the ocean. Room #6 appeared nice initially but on the 3rd night of a 5 night stay i realized the room had bed bugs. Woke up with numerous red bite marks on my body. Pulled the sheets back and noticed bed bug shedding. If there had not been a bed bug issue, this would have been a nice place to stay. The grounds did have remodeling material and an old dryer outside at the front of the building which was an eye sore. Also had issues with limited parking during hours when the AMA restaurant was open. Of course, the bed bug issue ruined my vacation. Im still having to take necessary precautions since arriving home to ensure my luggage and clothing is properly treated to prevent bringing bed bugs to my home. What should have been a relaxing trip has caused me great stress due to the bed bug issue.

Beautiful room with stunning view of the ocean. Beach and a few restaurants near within walking distance. This is the quiet side of the island. You will most definitely need a car as taxi’s are very difficult to come by. Hotel restaurant and bar have limited hours and you need a reservation for the restaurant despite not being very busy while we were there.

After being in the Virgin Islands for a week - I was happy to find out that Cane Bay is a favorite by many of the locals because it’s quiet and the beach is great! We loved staying here. Every part of it was incredible. You can go downstairs to AMA for food or the bar (tues - sat) - We loved AMA. The bar drinks were alright. You are in walking distance of the “off the wall” and “the landing” which have good food. We actually ate at the landing multiple times because the food was amazing and we could walk instead of taxi. I do recommend renting a car if you are going to stay here because you have to taxi to pretty much go anywhere - otherwise. Our room was BEAUTIFUL. you could hear the waves all night long, I slept better than ever, and the space felt sooo good. I do recommend stopping by the market and grabbing a case of bottled water for your stay! If we decide to come back to St Croix we will absolutely stay here again!! Also, am feeling inspired to paint and redecorate my home because of our room at The Waves!
