Had a great week in st Croix! The hotel on the cay was exactly as described in the reviews. Beautiful beach with beach bar and an excellent location next to the Christiansted boardwalk! The hotel is in disrepair and poorly maintained, which is why the nighty rates are low. If you can live with your room having issues (our AC went down), then it’s a great location at a discount.

As is the case with most of the Caribbean, Hotel on the Cay has been battered by hurricanes. However, if you love the beach, are not fussy and do not need ADA amenities, it is perfect. They do a great job of keeping the rooms clean and take good care of guests with charming island hospitality.

We were not notified that the pool was not operating. The entire outside of property is run down. There is no elevator and no one to help with bags. We were on the 3rd floor. Our balcony door did not shut properly and rattled loudly in the wind. The room was spacious, clean, good shower. Beach and beach bar are spectacular. The quick water taxi was easy to navigate.

I heard the property was in repair before I arrived but I didn't think the water fountain would be empty and the railings would feel like you will tumble over the side. It's old but not too bad for the price. Hopefully one day it can get back to it's glory.

The view was beautiful, but the Hotel is extremely older over 40 plus years and nothing is updated on the property. Also after we checked out on 8 Jan 2025 and my spouse and I left the Island not feeling well. We found out from family on the island that The Department of Health Ordered Hotel on the Cay to Cease Operations Amid Legionnaire’s Disease. It here we a couple confirmed cases and the symptoms are like the Flu . Now I have to get a urine test to make sure it’s just Flu we have and nothing else.
