Jessica Sent on 02/16/2013Our wedding at the Carambola was so amazing! We had 50 guests to the resort for 4 days! Lauren and the staff were so helpful with every aspect of the wedding!
The last minute "change of plans" went off with out a hitch when mother nature gave us a wedding blessing!
Not only the most picture perfect place for a wedding, but a fun and classic location for your family and friends to vacation in St. Croix! -
User1385019 Sent on 10/17/2013My husband and I got married at Carambola Beach. Lauren was amazing. Loved working with her. It really felt like we had the place to ourselves. The beach is so beautiful. They have scuba right there. The hammocks are such a sweet touch. It was such a perfect getaway. Can't wait to return. -
User1136261 Sent on 04/16/2013Simply the best! Beautiful roms, beautiful beach, extremely helpful and happy staff. Lauren helped me with every aspect of my planning that she could and was on site the entire day of my wedding. I cannot thank her enough! She stood by my side and was ALWAYS only a phone call or email away. She truly made things happen! The chef team accommodated all dietary needs and exceeded the expectations of all of my guests! I cannot wait to return to the resort! -

Caitlin Sent on 07/24/2010The food was great, and so was the service! The staff made a plate for my husband and I so we wouldn't have to go through the buffet and we could just socialize. The room and the location was beautiful! I couldn't have wished for a better place. -
User2574929 Sent on 04/12/2016Carambola is a stunning resort and the property is gorgeous. The food that was served at our wedding was delicious and the portions were gigantic.
My husband and I visited St. Croix the year before our wedding to meet with vendors and look at venues. Although the initial wedding coordinator that we had spoken with recently left the position, the new wedding coordinator, Ann, was amazing. Ann advised us not to hire a wedding planner stating that she takes on those responsibilities. Before signing the contract and putting our deposit down my husband and I fully disclosing all of our ideas (including a cigar & scotch bar, sparkler sendoff, and many other details). Throughout the next 6 months Ann was extremely helpful and very responsive. 6 months before our wedding Ann quit, we were not notified by Ann, Carambola, or the new coordinator, Elly.
Not only was it annoying to go over everything AGAIN with a new coordinator, but she was also absolutely awful. Right around that time Carambola increased their prices; Elly attempted to tell us that we would be required to pay the new prices, even though our contract stated differently. 2 weeks before our wedding Elly quit. A new coordinator, Mandy was hired. We once again had to go through all the details, adding so much more stress to our destination wedding. Days before our wedding we were told that we were not allowed to have our sparkler sendoff or cigars at our wedding, even though we had gotten permission before signing the contract and from every other coordinator. The manager of the Renaissance was extremely unprofessional, rude, and argumentative. Furthermore, after our wedding my husband and I were overcharged $4,000. The invoice contained several duplicate charges such as “ceremony setup fee” & “fee for setup of ceremony”. After a fight the money was finally reimbursed.
Overall Carambola is a beautiful resort; just know in advance that you will be dealing with a lot of unnecessary stress & complications.
