Paynes Bay Hotel Guide - Hotels with Spa in Paynes Bay, St. James

"Our stay at The Crane Resort was absolutely unforgettable. The suite we stayed in was incredibly spacious, beautifully designed, and felt like our own private getaway. From the comfortable furnishings to the relaxing atmosphere, every detail was thoughtfully done to make us feel right at home. The dining options on the property were equally impressive. Each restaurant offered delicious meals with exceptional service, making it easy to enjoy a great breakfast, lunch, or dinner without ever leaving the resort. Whether we wanted something casual or a more refined dining experience, The Crane delivered every time. And of course—the views. Waking up to those breathtaking ocean views every morning was truly something special. The combination of the sparkling blue water, gentle breeze, and peaceful ambiance made our stay feel like a dream. Overall, The Crane Resort exceeded our expectations in every way. We can’t wait to return!"

"On the beach, which is nice and smaller crowd than other resorts. Staff were extremely friendly and the food at Uma was fantastic. "

"This hotel is really lovely ... nice setting right on the beach ... lovely pool. Room was spotless clean. I give this hotel 10 out of 10 only downside is there isn't much within walking distance ie restaurants/shops. But a lovely spot to relax on the beach@"

"great"

"Great customer service. Beautiful views and clean rooms. Only cons were lack of good water pressure and food was 5-6/10. This is unfortunately the norm for most beach front resorts. "

"The hotel staff were amazing. Everyone is very pleasant and kind. The property is clean, rooms are well maintained, breathtaking view of the beach . "

"Excellent staff and hosting unfortunately the lobby bar was under renovations at the time but the beach bar was more than adequate. The beach was well kept as well as the pool area and bartenders with the bar side pool. The breakfast buffet while very diverse with a lot of choices was a bit on the pricey side. Easy walk to shopping across the street taxi stand just outside of the hotel to get a taxi anywhere on the island. Beautiful beach beautiful sunsets from this area as well."

"The room was beautiful clean and spacious. The staff was courteous, and professional."

"The staff were all incredibly friendly and accommodating during our stay. Our room was cleaned each day, with a nightly turndown service, which was a nice touch. We loved that it is a small property - ran into many of the same couples during our stay, but also felt like we had privacy and down time. Would go back and highly recommend it for other looking for a quiet get away."
