This came in from Julie M., Salem NY: Larimar, the blue stone, is a gem, and so is this place. There's a massive outdoor living room, flanked by a dining area, giant patio and a chlorine-free pool; at the far end, a well-stocked kitchen is housed within a self-contained structure, with a casual eating area of its own overlooking the mountains on one side and gardens (bougainvillea, hibiscus, ixora, citrus trees) on the other. There are four bedrooms, including two masters, both large enough to have sitting areas. Those of us tethered to email and the Internet had wireless broadband, and there is cable TV, but for the most part we ignored all electronic devices, including cell phones—a vacation in and of itself. The villa is perched on two acres overlooking Cane Bay; on a clear day you can see St. Thomas and Vieqes, a charming, sleepy little island off the coast of Puerto Rico, to the northwest. Up this high, there's a constant breeze, but it's still close enough to the sea to hear the breakers. The decor is lovely, and the layout works well for families or for groups of friends. Some days were all about beach and snorkeling, others on exploring. It's an easy drive into Christiansted and Frederiksted, the only two cities on the island, to sightsee, shop, and sample a few museums and galleries. There's championship-level golf, horseback riding, sailing, hikes in the rain forest, fine dining and a casino for those so inclined (we weren't). There was much discussion about going to snorkel at Buck Island Reef, one of only a handful of protected marine areas in the National Park System; it's a little more than a mile from the marina in Christiansted. (We nixed the idea when it started raining.) We did make it to Estate Whim, a restored, early 18th century plantation, and the St. George Botanical Garden, which is lovely. I can't wait to go back.
St. Croix: The Best-Kept Secret
I bought this dream home in the US Virgin Islands to live in someday. While I'm still working in Los Angeles, it's a shame to leave the place empty, so I make it available to friends, family and -- perhaps -- you. I wanted to buy something on St. Croix before it became as pricey as neighbor island St. John, and I'm glad I did. St. Croix is the best-kept secret in the Caribbean, an American territory that has all the charm of a tropical island and all the convenience of a U.S. destination. Plus it's not too crowded, not too touristy, and not too commercial.
