Why You Deserve St Croix Vacation Rentals

By Dawn Williams


If you were to follow the chain of Caribbean Islands from bottom to top you would eventually find the US Virgin Islands. In an atlas they will be just to the right of the island of Puerto Rico. Many agree that this is the perfect destination to get away from it all. With something to suit everyone's taste it makes a valid reason to explore St Croix vacation rentals.

A lot of people do see this as a perfect place to get married. Even those who just want to honeymoon here claim that there are not many more romantic places. Deciding to lease a villa means that you will get as much privacy as you require. There has to be a reason why so many married couples return to these islands year after year. Even complete families opt to take their breaks here. Some might opt for the hillside areas but many others do prefer the beachfront.

With so much to choose from it is your decision about how active you want to be. One thing is almost certain, the weather will be perfect for your plans. There is often sunshine everyday, and an average temperature of almost 90 degrees. The chance of rain is quite limited, as even taken across the whole year there is just a 10% likelihood.

This ideal weather leads to some glorious sunrise and sunsets. Where better to enjoy them than on a beach. The island has plenty of beaches for you to choose from.

With it not being a very large island there are various ways for the individual to get about. You will find taxis and cars for hire, also bikes too. Being an island there are always boats which sail between the islands, or even from one end to the other. If you feel more inclined you can always go horseback riding. For the more energetic there are also hiking trails.

How you choose to spend your day is entirely up to you. Maybe time spent on a white sand beach is your idea of heaven, some beaches are a lot more secluded than others. Maybe you would also like to try scuba diving on one of the many diving excursions, just think of shipwrecks, clear water and stunning sea-life. You could also take in a round of golf should you wish. Then there are also the guided tours that take in the rain forest areas.

Like many of this island's counterparts there is a rich history to the island. Visitors have included the Carib Indians and Columbus. The initial foreign settlers were the British and the Dutch, along with a few French. With the aid of sugar this island soon rose to prominence as one of the richest in the Caribbean. Even today tourists can explore the remnants of a grand plantation, another option is the old capital town of Christiansted.

Many visit the island just for the wonderful seafood, but they don't have to worry about a problem with the language. If you access the web-cam that the island operates you will see just a little of the pleasures that await you. So it really does make sense to start planning your St Croix vacation rentals in plenty of time.
