The Divi Carina Bay Beach Resort in Saint Croix is more like my idea of a vacation getaway.

The US Virgin Islands is comprised of 50 islands but there are really three main islands destinations that you will find on most maps. This hotel also contains is the only casino in the Virgin Islands. So if you want that kind of fun, then this is your only choice.

As a non-gambler, I actually decide upon my hotel based upon it’s beach. As you can see, the water clarity is excellent – plus it is warm Caribbean-like water.

Be sure to check out the user reviews before you book this or any hotel!
