In the heart of the eastern Caribbean sits Saint Thomas, the main island of the U.S. Virgin Islands (USVI). It is the most developed island of the USVI and sees a lot of cruise-ship traffic. Plus, it is brimming with colonial jewels, resorts and beaches, which makes it appealing to history lovers, culture vultures, and adventurers. Indulge in paddleboarding or kayaking at Magens Bay, learn about pirate history at the Pirate Museum, or hike up the Mountain Top, the island’s highest elevation point. When you don’t feel like doing anything, sprawl out on a hammock on one of the island’s stunning beaches and soak in the views of the blue waters. After all, what can be better than staying by the beach, right? So, here are the best beachfront rentals in St. Thomas, USVI.
