Accommodation

The Crane offers two different types of accommodations:

1887 Resort Apartments and Private Residences. 

1887 Resort Apartments 

The Crane's original historic hotel boasts charming, spacious oceanfront apartments with hardwood floors, 12' ceilings and exquisite antique furniture. Many rooms in this unique building also feature fully equipped kitchens and wrap-around balconies with spectacular ocean views.

Hotel Rooms (Standard or Deluxe)

The Crane's four hotel rooms, the smallest units available at the property, all have bedrooms and private bathrooms. Two of these rooms feature stunning ocean views and one also offers a kitchenette for guests’ convenience. Those hotel rooms do not feature ocean view or air-conditioning.

Two of the rooms in this section of the historic hotel can be combined with suites to create a two-bedroom apartment. 

Some of The Crane’s hotel rooms offer a unique look at history, featuring coral stone walls and traditionally high ceilings that are over 200 years old.

Suites

Suites at The Crane, in the original Historic Hotel, are larger than hotel rooms but smaller than the one-bedroom apartments.

All but one of the five suites in the 1887 Resort feature a lovely ocean view. That one suite, however, features a full pool view and access to the main pool through the patio. All suites offer a semi-private sitting room with a fold out sofa bed, bedroom, bathroom and patio.

Some of the suites were part of the original manor house, Marine Villa, and feature coral stone walls and high ceilings that are over 200 years old.

One Bedroom Suites (Standard or Deluxe)

The Crane's one-bedroom standard suites all have a private sitting room, private bathroom, full kitchen facilities, a spacious bedroom and large patio with breathtaking ocean views. 

Most one-bedroom suites are not air-conditioned as the tropical sea breeze, coral stone walls and 12-foot high ceilings help to cool them all year round. One-bedroom suites comfortably sleep four adults using the pull out sofa bed in the private sitting room. 

The Standard one-bedroom apartments feature a beautiful sea view from one side of the apartment and some feature a garden view on the other side.

Two of these rooms can be combined with Hotel Rooms to create a two-bedroom apartment.

Two Bedroom Suites (Standard or Deluxe)

Two-bedroom standard suites at The Crane are made up of a one-bedroom standard suite and hotel room joined by a connecting door.

Two-bedroom standard apartments have a private sitting room with a fold out sofa bed, 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a full kitchen, and a large balcony with an ocean view. These apartments sleep six adults with the pull out sofa bed.

The Standard two-bedroom apartments feature a beautiful sea view from one side of the apartment and a garden view from the opposite side.

Some of the rooms and one-bedroom suites were part of the original manor house, Marine Villa, or feature coral stone walls and high ceilings that are over 200 years old. 

Private Residences 

The Crane's Private Residences seamlessly combine 19th century grandeur with 21st century amenities.

Residences at The Crane boast coral stone walls, 10' high timber tray ceilings, central air-conditioning, ceiling fans and Jacuzzis. All ground floor and two-bedroom residences feature private pools, ranging from plunge pools to full-size pools that are 28 ft. in length.

All categories within the Private Residences from one- to three-bedrooms offer amazing ocean views; junior suites offer a garden view.

Each villa ranging in size from 2,900 to 4,000 sq. ft. of luxurious space, features three- bedroom and four- bathroom suites which open up to the expansive yet private balcony and plunge pool- offering up spectacular ocean views.
