Item Description
An eco-sensitive resort with self-contained tent-cottages, Virgin Island Campground is set on pristine 500-acre Water Island, in the U.S. Virgin Islands.
Known for its natural charm, Water Island is a secluded getaway, where you can spend a quiet day looking out over the ocean from your cottage's private terrace, or take a leisurely five-minute walk down to idyllic Honeymoon Beach for some snorkeling and sun-bathing. Regular ferry service (7 min. ride) makes it convenient to shopping, dining and activities in St. Thomas, or a day trip to St. John.
Canvas cottages offer a new and unique approach to the Caribbean vacation, giving you the comforts of a hotel room - electiricity, comfortable beds and clean linens - with the closeness to nature you feel when camping. Cabins are nestled amongst lush foliage offering you ample privacy, where you will be cooled by the balmy trade winds as the sounds of the gentle surf below lull you to sleep.
