Restore Caneel Bay Resort
Restoring Caneel Bay Resort as it once was, is imperative. And we need it rebuilt NOW!
But the National Park Service does not want to bring back Caneel Bay Resort.
The NPS has proposed either building nothing on the land, or only building a smaller, non-luxury lodging. What the NPS is not telling you is that if it decides to rebuild the small hotel, it will not generate the economic benefits our Islands desperately need, and nothing will be built for many years.
The NPS must go through litigation, several levels of government approval, and a bidding process under federal government rules. It will be a decade before the NPS has anything built on the Caneel Bay land, which is likely its preferred result.
