St. Croix US Virgin Islands

I have never been to St. Croix but just saw a 1BR available at the Renaissance Carombola Beach resort and have placed it on 24 hour hold with RCI.

Recent reviews of resort seem very good just not sure about St. Croix. I have been to several Caribbean Islands including, Aruba (several times), St. Lucia, Barbados, Punta Cana, St. Marteen, Grand Cayman,Jamaica, Antiqua and Puerto Rico. I loved all of my previous trips and each have had their own special features but just looking for something new.

Should I confirm this exchange? What is there to do in St. Croix. Any special features about the resort and the Island. Any negatives?

We love sailing, swimming, snorkling and have gone parasailing and zip lining as well as just relaxing on the beach.

I have a friends who also owns at Hotel on The Cay Hotel on the Cay, St. Croix USVI - An Eco-Tourism Island Apart and go every year for two weeks. They just love the laid back atmosphere and friendly people of STX.
I plan to visits one year as an add on to my annual STT trip.

Confirmed exchange

After doing additional research on St. Croix and things to do there we decided to take the week.

We are not going until December 2013 so will probably come back to this thread to get more information as we get closer to our trip.

I also looked into the Hotel on the Cay which looks very interesting and may want to stay there for a night or two before going to Carombola Beach resort. Rates at the Cay are pretty resonable, but if they have better rates for friends of owners perhaps Frank can get me a better price.

Anyhow I have lots of trips to get excited about way before St. Croix like;

St. Goerges Club-Bermuda
Elara ( formerly Westgate towers) at Planet Hollywood Vegas
Westin Lagunnamar- Cancun- ( Hope I don't have to cancel, but so far airfare prices from NY to Cancun are outrages)
Aruba Phoenix Beach Resort Aruba
La Cabana Aruba
Malaga Spain
Westin Florida- Annual spring break week with friends and family

I am still loving my timeshare vacations!!!!!

I think I can you get you owners rates if you need a few days just so you know that is peak time so the rates may be a little more not to mention over a year and a half away. I just received a letter from the resort that all of there bills are going up about 25-30% due to energy so I think they are preparing us for a rise in MF.
