The Crane has many lovely spots for dinner. D’Onofrio’s Trattoria sits in the heart of The Village and is a quaint Southern Italian restaurant perfect for a romantic dinner.

L’Azure is our famed fine dining restaurant and features panoramic views of the Crane Beach along with delicious international and Caribbean delicacies.
