St. Croix Hotel Price Scale
To give you a ballpark figure to budget with, we have
devised the scale below. It is based on the price of a dou-
ble room in high season (Dec 15 to April 30). It does not
take hotel amenities into account. At other times you
can expect to pay 25% less. Inquire about special rates
as part of a travel package. All hotels described take
major credit cards, unless specifically noted.
Deluxe ......................$350+
Expensive ..................$251-$350
Moderate ..................$150-$250
Inexpensive ................under $150

Resorts East of Christiansted
Hospital Gade (near the Old Customs House) becomes
Route #82 (East End Road) as it heads east out of
Christiansted. At first the area is suburban, with shopping
arcades, a beach and even an old fort. But once you pass The
Buccaneer Hotel (two miles), it becomes quite rural. You'll
see small homes enclosed by picket fences, drying laundry,
goats and cows munching on grass. Soon you'll notice a
change in the vegetation. This end of the island is much
drier and cactus replaces the tropical flowering plants.
There are resorts, beaches and marinas all along the north-
ern shore.
