St. Croix in the U.S. Virgin Islands is home to one of the most iconic hotels in the Caribbean (more on that here) as well as the only all-inclusive resort in the USVI and an eclectic assortment of other lodging options, including what might be the most affordable “private island” resort anywhere.

In other words, there are some great options to choose from on this fascinating, culturally rich destination.

Here are the best hotels in in St Croix, from boutique hotels to classic beach resorts and historic inns.

The Buccaneer in St Croix.

The Buccaneer Beach & Golf Resort Born as an 11-room guest house in 1947, the Buccaneer has grown into a timeless symbol of hospitality on St. Croix. Having recently joined the Trademark Collection by Wyndham, but family owned for more than 70 years, the landmark resort has a pink Colonial style Great House on a hillside overlooking an 18-hole championship golf course and a variety of lodging, dining, and entertainment venues. For a classically elegant vacation, there’s nothing like a stay at the Buccaneer.
