With white sand beaches, quaint comforts, and views straight off a postcard, St. Croix carries the quintessential features of paradise in Caribbean Sea. Although it’s the largest of the U.S. Virgin Islands, it’s also the least frequented, making it a haven for city-dwellers seeking a reprieve from day-to-day life. Experience snorkeling along the nearby underwater trail of Buck Island Reef National Monument or push your limits with scuba diving in Butler Bay. If exploration is not on your list, you can just as simply wade through the crystal clear waters and knock back a few servings of the island’s very own Cruzan rum. With loads of opportunities for relaxation, it comes as no surprise that some would consider extending their vacation. Why not take a page from their book and join in the fun? Check out the top long-term rentals in St Croix, USVI.
